I have been out all day so the only thing I know about the game is the result.
Today's game had a little bit of pressure on it, probably the first pressure game since the semi.

Questions.
1, did we pick a team to attack them or contain them
2,did we play football or hoof
3, did bottle it.

Cheers in advance.

 

[Callum]

How did we play?

Couldn't even be arsed watching tbh like.

Picked the same sort of team to the last few games other than the lad who are injured

We played football in patches had 2 good goals (jelivic and straq) ruled offside and should have had a pen

We dident bottle it as Wolves had 0 attempts on target but it seemed like alot of the team went through the motions like the season had already ended

 

[Rook]

The first was on by a mile.

The second... Stracq was on but Felli definitely wasn't and interfered with play, even though he didn't touch the ball. So that was the correct decision.

We should have had a pen as well though, to be fair.

I could see not calling the Osman pen, it was at the edge of the box and would have been harsh. Fell was offside and interfering. Jelavic wasn't offside in the least. If the goal would have counted then it would have opened up the game quite a bit. Wolves came for 0-0, 1-0, got the call they needed. S44t happens. NUFC will be tough out but it should be a fun open match to end the season, unlike this one.

 

[The Esk]

Long day for a 0-0, pity Jelavic's goal was disallowed I think we'd have got a few more had it done so!

That's me for the season, off to China on Wednesday so will not see the final game against NU.

Report card reads: appalling start, good transfer activity, much better finish, Plenty of what ifs - especially the Derby at Anfield and the Semi-Final.

Hopefully we will see transfer activity early in the summer.

Positives: Jelavic (although we need someone else as he obviously cannot score every game), Piennar (we must re-sign him), Heitinga - should be next Club Captain, Gibson - inspired buy, Hibbert - he must score in 2012/13

Negatives: - Tim Cahill, as much as I love him his best days have passed, Rodwell - sadly injury prone, we should cash in if possible, Jagielka - similarly we should cash in.

As ever love following the Blues, both ups and downs - look forward to seeing you all in 2012/13!

 

[Walken]

I wouldnt get excitied about seeing Barkley again, by the time we do the fearless youngster who burdt on the scene will have had all that coached out of him

 

[Dom1878]

Got so excited when Hibbert shot - was gutted! Also got excited when straq scored, really wanted him to score, shame really!

Today was a complete and total let down by the whole team. Don't these players ever pick up on the 'talk on the streets' of how massively important to their supporters some results are compared to others?
I accept that we have no given right to win every match (that's only the prerogative of the RS) but Wolves away was almost a must win game as it would have more or less guaranteed us finishing above them.
I mean Wolves away! Should have been a walk in the park. But no, as is too often the case we fall short and are now left to hope that the RS come unstuck in at least one of their remaining matches, when with 3 points from today we could have just left them to get on with it and not given a toss what they did.
Knowing how the RS go for the jugular with every mistake this modern Everton makes, it wouldn't surprise me in the least if they have pipped us for 7th place when the final whistle blows next Sunday.

Take it easy big man. Playing for 7th Place?

Does it matter? We should have won but we didn't. We put four in at United, and they will feel like they should have won. The RS lost the final, no prizes for second place and their season was a total failure anyway.

I feel your frustrations mate, but seriously, it's all about next season now.

 

[NewRadical]

Is Jose Baxter really a better option from the bench than Vellios?

 

[Groucho]

Spot on mcbain, gotta finish above the other lot but it IS all about next season. Btw, did you know that toadie from neighbours (Ryan malone) is a blue? I didn't until recently

We kind of played well anyway. Unfortunate to have a goal disallowed and a bad game from some key players like Osman. But generally, with a fairly makeshift midfield we dominated for much of the game playing some good football away from home.

It's not like we played defensively or didn't try and score. We actually overplayed our football, which is better than sitting back for a draw.

 

[TX Bill]

We had a match today?

Just kidding.

Wasn't on TV here in the States so I had to follow on the internet. Yawn.

Have a safe trip mate.
