Everton (A) Post Match Thread

Three things:

1. We are absolutely purring.

2. Tom Davies is the dirty twat I always said he was.

3. Richarlison has jumped over many other contenders for the Whiniest Little woman in the Prem award.

None of those players in our team were regarded as world class when we signed them. In fact we were mocked by the media for buying Stones, Walker, Sterling and even KDB. They said Rodri was too slow and Cancelo had flopped in his first season. Pep has made them world class just like the players he brought through from Barcelona's B team.
He built one of the greatest teams the world has seen at Barcelona. Lee Dixon would never have got in any of Pep's teams. Not ahead of Zinchenko nor Delph. Dixon was too slow and too poor technically, even at his peak. What he has to say about Pep has no value.

 

[The perfect fumble]

Wasn't that Fabian Delph congratulating City players at the end, smiles & laughter all round?

Collymore said, per Daily Mirror: “If he thinks he’s going to turn up and outplay everybody in the Premier League, and that teams like Watford, Leicester, Bournemouth, Southampton and Crystal Palace are going to let his Manchester City side have the ball for 90 per cent of the time and pass pretty patterns around them so they can get a result, then he is absolutely deluded.


“In fact, he is beyond deluded. And if he thinks he doesn’t need to teach tackling or one-on-one combat in training then he’ll be going back to Spain with his tail between his legs.”

Remind's me of that 70s hit by Hot Chocolate." So you win again".

Ha ha ha! I couldn't think of another jockey to be honest and I'm probably showing my age with Lester Piggott! :)

Lol, I totally understand, Lester Piggott was just about the only jockey anyone knew about going back to the late 50's to the early 80's, an absolute enigma and genius, he was the "housewives" choice in the Derby and won it nine times. I was at Epsom in 1983 when he won on Teenoso (his last win) and that night England played Scotland at Wembley. There were plenty of jocks at Epsom in the afternoon, shall we say, "enjoying themselves" doubt if a good few of them made the match but an interesting afternoon. I believe it's still the slowest Derby on record due to the amount of rain at the time, the racecourse was a bog.

Barbara Streisand can sing alright, but can she do a cruise ship?

Get her down the Black Boy in Wythenshawe on a Friday night for karaoke and she’ll be exposed for what she’s always been - a good singer when given the right tools.

Thought a few players were very sloppy and careless.

Yes, Cancelo gave the ball away a lot late on, and Phil didn't have his usual control. Mahrez, however was far more FFS!!! :-) than FFS... :-( today, which was great to see.
