Everton (FA Cup) Post Match Thread

[Platt Lane veteran]

"That 90 minutes shows how much progress Everton have made" was Jake Humphries take at full time. Was he taking the piss, they and their tactics were dire!

I found that comment bizarre. They’re 7th in the league ffs, they were fucking dreadful.

We dealt with their aerial threat much better than I thought we would. Fern was off the scale good today. We finished with our best 11 on the field (maybe).. So much more balance in the team after the changes.

 

[Big Chap]

How did Fern get a booking yet Gomes got nothing?

I reckon Gomes made 5 fouls to get booked and then 2 or 3 yellow card offences after that. Ferny’s was his first tackle really. I shouldn’t be surprised, but so fkn obvious.

Gomez and Allan just ran around kicking everyone..

Gomez should have been off the dirty fucker..

Finally got booked after countless fouls..

Everton played like a league 2 side and got exactly what they deserved..




Fuck all..!

Zinchenko has become essential to our play, hardly gets a mention but a great footballer

Im so sick of commentators or pundits praising teams for doing absolutely nothing against us.

This was a fucking cup quarter final and Ancelotti played every centreback he had, defended as deep as physically possible non stop from the first whistle and never tried to score a goal, just the occasional lump to DCL to chase down.

They weren't unlucky, they weren't brave, they weren't holding out for 85 minutes, they just tried to act as spoilers and stop a game of football from breaking out until the inevitable happened.

And we have won our last 7 penalty shootouts in a row as well!! Its not clever to try and take it to penalties after 120 minutes of being shit.

I'd be disgusted with Ancelotti and the players if I was an Everton fan and saw them put up that performance.

Hope we spend another billion and dominate for another 10 years

City going down with a BILLION on the bench, fuck them all!!!

Commentators made it sound like we were up against a plucky league 1 side and Everton played like one, and why was their goalkeeper wasting time with 20 mins to go by not picking the ball up ?, surely not playing for penalties?

They played like a pub team. Lot of money spent too.

Everton were c*nt's to a man. OliVAR got in the way, but we fought to the end and deserved the win in the end for our tenacity.

Last season we'd have folded, but we seem to have found a belief in ourselves this season.

Once we got the goals I was just relieved that we didn’t pick up any injuries.

There’s being physical and there’s being absolute liberty taking dirty cunts, Everton fell into the latter half today. Oh the fucking irony at them crying about the ‘high’ foot at the end. They went right down in my estimation, Mina, Allan and Gomes took the piss.

Add in the pathetic Richarlison and most of their team grated big style.

Foden is a big, key player for us, no holding him back now. Zin absolutely perfection down the left.

Great win in tough circumstances.
