Everton (A) Post Match Thread

[blue by birth]

That was absolutely brilliant...we totally bossed them and we rightly took our foot off the gas second half.
Sane was fantastic today, great goal and wonderful skill to control the ball from Eddie and take the piss as and pass it to Kev to set up Gabby.
Merlin was so fucking good and Fern just gets better.
Defensively we were excellent apart from the odd mistake but we looked solid overall.
Can you imagine any other team playing without their leading goalscorer and not miss him....
Loved the way the players went over to the fans to show appreciation..

Just read this on another site ; I see the wags are out in force
- Jesus scores from a nailed on cross. at Easter

No. I think he holds onto it a bit a times, but you was asking about him slowing us down TODAY.

You asked a question in order to get agreement with your opinion. You virtually admitted it in your reply to the other poster.

I stated my opinion, you are perfectly entitled to dissagree. That doesn't make it a stupid question. I ask again do you think he is as quick as our other creative midfielders. Perhaps I am expecting too much.

Record away possession in PL BT just said.

82.1%

So Big Sam will never be forgotten then. The negative records I was talking about in a previous post. Seems they didn't avoid one...

That first half was some of the best football we've played this season and that's saying something.

I think it's the fact that we cruised to 3 - 1 win, away from home and you have to criticise a player who only played around 15 minutes,
when we had already taken our foot off the ball.

To be fair, his original post wasn't criticizing Gundogan today, it was just asking how he'd played.

We all know his problems and worries, nearly 3 weeks without a game and the he turns up at

Everton. Best player on the pitch bye a country mile.
David Silva I mean.

Brilliant win, got the job done first half and saw it out comfortably second half. Very similar game to the Arsenal away game.

We were unplayable first half.

Why is it stupid question? Oo2d played sure but I'm just not a massive fan of him. For me he slows down every game he plays in. His speed of pass is just not on the same level as Merlin, KDB or even B Silva. But I accept he has come back from a bad injury and may improve.

You've answered your own question. If you think he slows the play down every time you see him but didn't have the benefit of watching today your question was informed by your own bias rather than anything suggested by the radio commentary. You're not the only one on here though with that view of him. It's not a view I agree with
