Match Thread Ipswich Town 0-2 Everton - Saturday 19th October - 15:00

[ste d' indica]

….what a composed performance from Michael Keane, obviously a terrific finish but some vital headed clearances in those last 20mins gives him my MoM.

The fact Dyche picks him ahead of O’Brien is not because he’s a ‘pet’ or a ‘favourite’, it’s solely down to judgement. It’s a results business and Managers select what they believe is their best X1 available. Most of us would select differently but Keane justified his managers decision today.

Key for me was the CM partnership of Gueye/Doucoure. Dyche has tried to find the right formula, ironic that arguably the best we’ve looked is with the two old fella’s today. I was pleasantly surprised at how decent they were in possession, Gueye played well I thought.

Lots of very decent performances today, not many poor ones. Everybody seems to be very much playing for the cause, can enjoy a few rums tonight and a delightful Chinese takeaway to celebrate Mrs Eggs birthday.

A succulent Chinese meal??

Everton is The A-team now!

Why did we kick off late? Please share goals

Turnstiles went down. Paper always wins.

 

[Sharpies volley]

Not just that but apparently he's irreplaceable.

What as? The tea boy

I thought Mykolenko had a great game until tiring later on, bonus points to McNeil for helping him out.

Again Ashley Young did quite well.

No complaints from me today.

No lie, during the Euros the pundits were saying our system wasn't working because we didn't have a replacement for him. Think Southgate also said it himself.

 

[Sadken]

There are some on here who will never give credit to Keane even if he scores 10 goals, so from me well done Keane, you deserve all the plaudits today, well done.

Keane is a better finisher than lewin and beto ,dodgy defender

1. A little, yes.
2. Wolves away on 2 November is D Day. Nothing by then and it’s “Welcome Mosey!”

Is it losing Olise or...whats happened?

 

[Markydys]

Such a shame DCL can't finish 1 on 1s.

His all round game isn't bad at all. Quick, good in the air, brings others into the game yet he just can't put it in the back of the net.

A striker who can’t score goals and a defender who can’t defend.

Everton.

Gave it to Keane. The second goal killed the match. His performance in comparison to what i expect of him meant that for ne he was MoTm. But Ipswich (unless things change quickly) are in big trouble.

 

[Kevsleftpeg]

McNeil was MotM for me. Worked tirelessly and most of our best play went through him. He looks so much better centrally. Seems to play with a bit of a strut at times. He does have an excellent touch with that left foot.

….wasn’t found wanting for effort but the winger seemed to go past him plenty.

 

[diggerdestroyer]

Great result today. UTFT.

 

[PeregrineT]

Good win, they were really terrible and shows the gulf in just pure players with those bottom teams. Winning without a functional striker is a good sign.
