Still a good start?

[Royal Blue Jersey]

offers nothing going forward. Constantly wastes possession.

Ben Arfa hardly got a sniff. They were reduced to long balls to the big men up front. Hibbert has once again been the most consistent defender.

 

[Blue Truth]

yep I had us to lose at united, beat villa beat west brom and draw to newcastle, so thats 7 points anyway, so far we are on course

on course for what? Mid table mediocrity?

if we want to get anywhere or do anything decent we need results

 

[Brahford]

This is far better than usual

 

[TheFinnFan]

OK start.
Win from Swansea and it is a good start.

 

[Blue Truth]

This is far better than usual

are you happy with our usual starts

Yep, not sure what people want from him. It's not as if we need Maicon on the right with Baines on the left.

As far as the start, it's good enough and better than recent seasons.

We had the same points after four games last season.

but we do need someone like that. how does a good left back solve our right back issues?

What right back issues?

Point is you don't need someone bombing down the right side if you have a Baines on the left. I love Everton, but we're not Brazil. Attacks stem from the left and that won't change with Coleman or anyone else in the side. What is needed on the right is a solid defender, and that is what Hibbert is.

Nobody can have any complaints about Hibbert last night, he was solid, I mean clearly he offers us very little going forward, but from my point of view he did his job well last night.

 

[Tubey]

It's a start that I'd expect. We're 7th, which is par for the course. It's not good or bad, it's average. We're in the mindset that it's good simply because we've had decidedly bad starts for over half a decade.

 

[DanEFC92]

7th place trophy is in our sights once again.

 

[nigelcoyb]

When we were getting 1- 0 results playing "hoof it" I wasn't enamored because it's survival stuff, we're much more likely to win a cup with this footy - still a good start.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

If we had of seen off Newcastle successfully last night I would have said yes. Now? Not so much.

We're playing very well this time around. We were still sh*te this time last season, despite the decent start. The fact we've started by playing well means that the points should come in much faster than last year and put us in a much stronger position in the latter stages of the season.
