Everton (A) Post Match Thread

What a mega 1st half that was. Everton were done after 5 mins. Shame they scored a soft one but hey it matters not. Silva MOTM.

I hope we go full strength and absolutely batter United. We won't get another chance like this again - beat your rivals in a derby to win the title. And completely embarrass and humiliate them in the process. If we are 3-0 up at HT like today, keep fucking going and grind their noses in it. Pep already mentioned how great it was when Barca did that vs Real. So he gets it, forget what he said about the Liverpool games, he wants to spank Utd as well. I cannot wait.
 
Wow. Have we ever played as well as we did in that first half.

Play like that in the next two games and it’ll be one of the best weeks ever
 
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.
Totally agree. Pickford has conceded 53 in the league alone - 32 games. Butland has conceded 58 in the league - 31 games (maybe he missed a game) and makes howlers - punches the ball into his own net etc. Those two are breaking records for the number of goals conceded, and yet there's a few deluded pundits who think they're having great seasons and deserve to go to the World Cup. Pope is a level above those two. Our own Joe had the best record of any goalkeeper in European World Cup qualifying - didn't concede for almost 12 months, and got, and continues to get, slaughtered. Better international career clean sheet record than Neuer behind an immeasurably weaker team.
 
That first half I was just laughing and shaking my head in total àwe. Merlin was just on another planet. Wish he was 22 and not 32 :-(

I really think Merlin has another 2-3 years of being capable of orchestrating this midfield. His key features are touch, passing and a football intelligence that is of genius status. He also clearly lives a model existence in terms of diet and lifestyle, so don’t get too sad just now ;-)
 
Incredible first half today. Silva/Sane in particular were just unstoppable.

Sometimes feels like De Bruyne & Silva take turns in who's going to step up & kill the opposition on match day.

There was actually a few players who didn't get as involved as they usually do, including De Bruyne/Sterling, which must be scary for the opposition given that first half performance.

Let's hope for similar against Liverpool.
