Everton (A) Post Match Thread

This team is well equiped to win the title next year even without adding any 1 in summer. Amazing football. Wonder if mourinio will complain about the music and celeberations next sat.

I hope we thrash united i am so looking forward to seeing expressions of sanchez n mournio especially.

Defeating 2 love birds of media in the space of 2 weeks would be awesome
 
Another great performance. I must say, it seems to me that a lot of pundits have gone slightly overboard about Pickford's distribution. He's lightyears behind Ederson.

I haven't seen the game, just had radio coverage, but was how we played in the first half better than how Bayern played at ours, when some wag put it to the Benny Hill music ?

It's hard to say considering we were better then than Everton are now, but it was more dominant. Plus the goals we scored were great and not down to major keeping/defending errors.
 
I pray to god that Raheem won`t play against the dippers after he was subbed off today. He always plays horrible against them

Tbf we were much more incisive than Bayern.

Thanks NK, the thing is I have that stuck indelibly in my head, as their passing was something else in that first half, and we chased shadows, so the benny hill tune was pretty apt for how far behind them we were, so to think we might have surpassed that level is something else, because it was a benchmark of how far we still had to go.

This is a huge 10 days, but if we come out of it unscathed (1 down, 3 to go, so not counting any chickens yet), it will be one hell of a statement on top of all we've achieved already.

Thanks, I've put the full game on to record tomorrow morning, and I'm really looking forward to that first half.
 
Just watched the second goal on BT's replay of the game.

There are some amazing examples of skill and control in that move.

Firstly, Leroy's control of Ederson's punt was wonderful, as was the skill he used to maintain possession.

Then, the assist from KdB was a phenomenal cross, made with both feet off the ground.

I’d chosen Raheem's winner against Southampton as my GotS, but this one will run it very close, if not beat it.

No problem. Just didn't want you being disappointed Tuesday night.

I had never seen anything like that in the flesh. Not even Barca. But it still needed Joe Hart's doziness to create a real goal scoring opportunity for them.

City today were seriously dangerous all through the first half, trying little passes into the box etc, not just knocking it around for the sake of it, but still had 82% possession.
 
I love it when we're winning and we start passing it back and forth in front of their inert defenders until the opposition fans boo their own team for not trying. I love that we psychologically batter them
