Stoke City v Everton. 15th Dec @ 15.00.

a liability again

again?

How is a point decent in any way whatsoever. All they do is close down well and clear the ball if it's anywhere near their area. The hard thing to do against teams like that is having the confidence to play passes in tight areas, which we did absolutely fine until we conceded a terrible goal. It should have been another game where it was a question of whether or not we'd have enough quality to break them down, not a scrappy battle of who can get more lucky.

Yet another opportunity thrown away.

Defo this. We got into a scrap with them after they equalised and they love that. Jelavic and Fellaini were criminal in that respect.

 

[TheFinnFan]

ok point, hard place to get points that ****house

You can do one with your tiki taka broWnz. They are unbeaten at home for good reason along with not conceding many goals. They beasted our midfield and pushed high on our defence. There wasn't much space and they worked hard to keep it that way.

It's a good point as it very much could have been no points.

 

[Blue Truth]

I also think we hoofed too much. It was Stoke ffs.



Well yes. But as Howard has been doing really poor this whole season, his bad goalkeeping is to be highlighted. He's letting the whole team down and it showed on the lads.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Jela score a few more in the next few weeks now that fellaini is out. They're just not that good up front together. Individually they make good things happen.

 

[bignev23]

Jagielka was at fault for the goal as well as howard.It was a half hearted jump with Jones.

 

[Muggins]

Absolutely.

I'm happy with a point - as said earlier, Stoke are unbeaten for 15 games at home for a reason.

Me too mate. Disappointed of course. The cat will confirm that.

I think we tried to play Stoke at their own game a bit too much and lost, which is basically - take a point. I want to see us play some proper football against West Ham. Coyb!!

 

[JamesBT]

I do think Jelavic could be in with a chance of better service and goals in Fellaini's absence.

 

[Nowso]

again?

yes not the first game he has been a liability for one reason or another

Howard is costing us more points than saving.
