FC Everton v VFL Wolfsburg

[Librarian]

You get the feeling that this Everton side have another gear, there's something building here.

I thought Wolfsburg were a very good side. Came to play with and played a lot like us. A lot of familiar faces from the world cup. That scoreline was emphatic (I'm a little annoyed we conceded with the last kick of the game, but it was a great free kick). Over all a great game of footy, a very decent turnout (have you check out the other empty stadiums across Europe) and we've put down a real benchmark for this group.

MOTM is tough.

I'm going top 3 of:

Stones
Howard
Barry

With J-Mac close.

With Howard close.

The 5 German teams this week: 97 shots total, 44 on target, 6 goals.

Lukaku was a bit meh again for me

Every time he gets the ball with his back to goal I think he's going to give it away

Don't make me get the Eeyore picture out again.

To all those moaning about us taking the foot off the gas at 3 - 0: this is the second of seven games in a three-week period. I'd be VERY worried if we didn't ease off once the result was secure.... gotta think of Palace in three days' time.

Spot on lad

Game was boxed off, If they scored I think we would have upped he pace again

Just remembered Ross Barkley is to come back into this team. Christ almighty.

And Kone! Seriously we will have a strong squad when everyone is fit. Looking forward to Oviedo coming back.

 

[Librarian]

Shush, he's on

 

[Neiler]

Roberto he has so much class, bigging up Peter Reid in the studio

"Peter knows all about big European nights under the lights at Goodison"

The man is just quality!

 

[Toffee-nerd]

"Kevin Mirallas added a fourth in the dying stages as he raced onto a through ball from substitute Samuel Eto'o to slot beyond the onrushing Benaglio with a composed finish, before Rodriguez pulled one back at the right end in stoppage time with a fine free-kick" - Sky sports. Is it even a typo? Hahahaha.

Fantastic performance that, they look a good side and we managed to score 4 against them. Going forward they had a lot of shots but we seemed comfortable at the back. A performance like that at Anfield and our hoodoo will be over.

 

[Durham Toffee]

Overjoyed with that.

Our attacking prowess is phenomenonal.

 

[bluegirl]

I love Everton. I love Roberto. I love our club. We're back.

Yep, the less he's involved in the build up the better for me. Should just concentrate on getting himself into goal scoring positions right now.
