Norwich v Everton. 17th Aug @ 15.00.

[Tubey]

We were very good today, superb performance on a dodgy ground for us, should have came away with three points but terrible luck for both goals.

Osman is slipping into Neville-esque standards and has been weak for the entirety of 2013. Needs to buck his ideas up quick or it may be time to drop him to reserve level to help the kids develop.

Didn't see much wrong at all elsewhere - Fellaini a bit disinterested today, but yeah in general all good. If we play like that most weeks we'll hammer teams.

Dominating any team in this league at their own place is impressive. Norwich can think themselves very fortunate to get off with a point.

Hope you're sorry for jinxing us out of two points by slating whittaker, dave.

How exactly was that second goal of theirs lucky? Howard had his feet planted, vw headed back across goal. Howard didn't move.

I think you're right.

That performance bodes well for next week.

Even then, Howard had no chance, it was a superb header from a deflected cross.

Oh boy did I slip up there. The one half decent game that numb nuts plays each season saved for us. My apologies.

 

[EFC Si]

Pleased with the team today, although this happened too many times last season where we play well and let the other team equalise at the last minute. Spurs, Fulham etc

Looking forward to playing at home next

Deflected shot more like! The lad laced it, got it massivly wrong, but the striker reacted brilliantly TBF

Pressure on them a bit to come out and do something after today. I'd be surprised (if we haven't been stripped of players by then) if we dont ease past West Brom.

The luck was their goal scoring fullback had a big shot that sliced directly onto their strikers head a pure fluky cross and both goals were against the run of play when we went 2-1 up the confidence rose the football was class and that lucky shot cross made it a draw!

oh, no question there. but I think Howard could have at least attempted to stop it. Don't think his angle ess that off..

if a right back means to slice a 25 yard cross off his shin then he should be playing for barcelona

howard had a good game, and i'm one of his biggest critics, no keeper in the world would have had a chance with that header. You'd all be moaning if he actually made an attempt for it even though he had no chance of saving it and it instead came off the post and hit his back and went in, right?

 

[Titus Bramble]

The header was right in the corner, no way would Howard have saved it if he attempted.
