Match Thread FC Twente vs Everton (Wednesday 19th July) 6pm

[The binman chronicles]

Also a ST holder since he was a lad. True blue this one.

At last the real reason Ross wants out, he's seen the talent on the conveyor belt and thought sod this for a game of soldiers, i can't compete with them lot.

If it weren't for those pesky kids...grrrrr.

Look more of a team without Lukaku and Barkley right lads? *leaves thread*

 

[PeregrineT]

All in all, good game, had 3 good goals, defence allowed very little except for one opportunity on a corner, and one other shot pulled wide. Had plenty more chances as well.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Absolute walk in the park in the second half. Looked like an attack vs defense exercise. Expected Twente to be better than that.

Nothing much to say really apart from the fact that we've got some really boss footballers.

anyone else happy to let these kids prove themselves this season as appose to spunking a shed load more cash on players?

Loads of us actually.

 

[Azza]

When is McCarthy going to Newcastle?!

Absolutely gash

 

[orly]

Rooney showed he is here to take it properly seriously - but he didn't like a few of the snidey challenges and that was a big dive in at the end. Klaassen and him look like they will play well together. Another good performance from Besic too, excellent goal by Dowell

Bit of Robbie Fowler about that

 

[zebedee]

missed 1st half stupid traffic.. Liked what I saw 2nd half especially in final 3rd when we lost the ball. A lot more hustle to get it back unlike tail end of last season hands in the air blaming someone else... Things are looking good and balance is there which is great.. COYB we'll have the league tied up end of September

I don't think Dowell is a Koeman player, but GOD he needs to get some playing time this upcoming season

But....but....

Is that you Mr Glitter....

 

[ianefc]

Happy with that. Impressive how the rhythm wasn't affected by all thoses changes and we got better from that point.

 

[Tigger]

Translation: We're all genuinely excited about Dowell. He's been ace. That goal was an absolute cracker. Then, being Evertonians, we start taking the piss out of ourselves after about 30 seconds because we don't want to morph into Kopites.

Right, so he is not the messiah, just a very promising boy.

 

[Buckshot Lafonque]

Who ?

I knew I wouldn't get away with that
