Everton (a) post-match thread

We got away with one there

Very poor again performance (nothing wrong with the effort) wise. We look very unbalanced in midfield and we have seen at times that gundo and Rodri in midfield can do that.....but its also affected the performance of both cancello and Bernardo who were our best players for a good run of games

The penalty could have gone either way and its very hard to tell whether it was or wasnt from the angles.....what might have saved rodri is that to mee at least it looked like part of the ball got him on the chest area as well as the arm - but again different angles say different things.

KDB was noteably poor again returning to his early season form

Laporte needs to stop giving away needless freekicks by barging people in the bac when they are moving away from the goal - basics

Stones at fullback is fine but we defeintely lose something not having walker there.

Huge slice of luck with the goal but Foden did well to react so well.

Onto the derby and if we play like that we will give utd a chance and in reality they shouldnt get a look in (then again form goes out the window usually so lets hope thats true in our case as we need our form from the last two games out fo the window thats for sure!!)
Yep,Kev looking very mediocre lately.
 
Yea ma, the Toffeeez got beat

Well done guys. The referee was on our side, rodri hand ball was penatly but who cares. Congrats for the 3 vital points
 
its offside and anything else after that is pointless ?
They reviewed it for handball not offside! Offside was after the incident. If they thought it was a handball during their review offside wouldn’t have saved us.
 
Pissed off both sides of the dipper divide in one match

Lovely
I suspect that pre-match Dippers might have been thinking EFC would lie down 'n die - it's what I was hoping that that was what SuperFrank was gonna tell his olayers. When they didn't and Fodders gets his tap in and then Rodri gets the Redshite cheering again, only for those experts and impartial upholders of the LotG to shake their clever little heads, I could see the steam rising off the collective piss in L4!
 
Foden miles better than anyone else today. Cancelo performances heading the same way as last season, Bernardo not involved enough and Sterling.... well. 3 points still deserved because we were the best side, but need to regain the form of a few weeks ago.
 
Agree this our worst performance for quite some time. No tempo and losing far too many 1on 1s. Even after we took the lead and Everton being knackered and hart broken by conceding a lucky goal for us, we handed them the game and gave them renewed energy.

But I take the 3 points if it was for that diving cheating couple Richarlison and Allen. We deserved it. Just. Let’s hope we step up big time next week and every other game after that.
That Allen bloke could give Bruno Ratface some lessons in moaning.
 
Just remember this with the media/Dippers for the handball.
We were robbed of a clear penalty by the ref and Var for a penalty v Southampton recently where if given correctly, could have been 2 more points for us.
Of course no coverage of this by the media bar 1 report saying officials got it wrong and don't know the rules as a foul on the line of the box is a penalty not a free kick which we got
We didn’t even get the free kick!
 
The best way to piss Dippers off , an Everton mistake for our goal and a blatant penalty denied , beautiful .
Our final ball was awful today , considering we have the most creative players in the league it was not acceptable for all the possession stats the return in real goal opportunities is not good enough right now.
We are going through a sticky spell and need to grind out results until our big players return to form and start creating like we know they can.
1st half was a struggle. 2nd half I thought was one-way traffic. It's not easy to open up a determined side who have limited ambition to attack. That game was always going to be like that because of Everton's situation. It's got nothing to do with the final ball.
 
If & I stress if we do go on to win the league this year (long way to go yet) could we have a statue of Rodri outside the ground with the ball stuck to his arm just to wind up the dippers :-)
