KRC Genk vs Everton... Match Report and MotM Poll...

[Dutch Toffee]

Just a FYI, Genk were at anything but full strength - missing their no10 - besides their regular left and right backs, but still managed to have the better of Everton. I expected quite a bit from a middle-rung Premiership side, especially considering the difference in annual budgets. Wishing the Toffees the very best in their Europa League campaign and a [Poor language removed] You to the Everton 'supporters' who thought it necessary to break stuff at the Irish Pub in Hasselt after the game.

The report that I'm reading says that the Everton fans in that Irish Pub were attacked by a small group of about 12 men in black shirts and the pub was smashed up as a result of that.

Apologies...that was indeed the case. Sorry for jumping the gun on that one. Damn our 'fans' that resorted to violence - always unwarranted.

Very bad if this is true friend, but unfortunately, every club has it's idiot 'fans'. Hope not too much damage done. On the bright side you should have a good season with what looks to be a very good Genk side!

As I've mentioned elsewhere, I was misinformed on the pub incident. Apologies.

Whilst Genk were not pushovers by any- means, I feel sure that we would beat them 11 v 11, I'd ask Dowell, Mirallas, Gana and Klaassen
how they thought that they played? If they answered anything but rubbish, I'd Transfer the lot on monday next. Rooney should still be Englands Captain and ours. Keane has a lot of rough edges to rub down. Martina did a Ray Wilson to Helmut Haller in '66, but we still won that one, I'd
give him another go to look at him properly. Schneiderlin looked good again and so did Barry. McCarthy, Davies and Lookman were not
anything startling, Baines as usual was okay, Ramirez was outstanding in everything he did, His cross to Rooney was almost as good as
Barkley could have done, I don,t like dirty tackles but I believe we need someone at the back that can handle themselves, and especially to
look after our young ones and that has to be Williams. I've never had any time for Besic and after seeing him again, I still don't.

Even though it is only pre-season, the lack of creativity was quite glaring at times.But yeah, you'd expect Everton to beat Genk 70 times out of a 100. Our annual budget is closer to 30mil euros, which is probably what Rooney might make for a fart

The so called ultras were at it before the game as well. One of the police had the leader by the throat and about 50 of them came legging over.
I guarantee it was this guy who kicked it off, he was trying to cause trouble from the off.
