Everton (FA Cup) Post Match Thread

[Platt Lane veteran]

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

Maturing fantastically as a footballer, has his flaws yes, but he’s played himself into our best left-back.

 

[remember arthur mann]

17 away wins, record, Wow.

 

[WyongBlue]

Good result in the end........but made to work hard for it, Fernandinho and Gundogan was immense today.........

 

[Stoned Rose]

I really think Godfrey for them will go to the very top. A quality player

Absolutely colossal player.

 

[Bigga]

I keep thinking Steffen must be getting pissed of with not having to wash his kit.

He must think no one's going to believe I play for the club!

 

[xgorton]

The fool got on my nerves kept saying next week we have on BT 2 premiere league games, no it's 2 weeks away idiot Easter weekend.

 

[Semper aggressus]

Some win that, ground it out very professionally against a good side. Well played City.

 

[Jesus H Gabz]

I enjoyed that!......can’t believe people are nit picking, we have to win differently, we have to win ugly, we have to compete in different ways, I thought Everton where great at what they set out to do but relented when the changes where made, another semi & another chance of a trophy

17 away wins, record, Wow.

Nope, 17 away games unbeaten. There are 2 draws in there.

The MOTM was Raz, by removing himself from the game he opened up different chances and possibilities for us and we duly used it. Gundo and Zinchensko together with Americ on the left had some great exchanges and he was destroying every single of them. Actually Gundo suffered as well, because he started holding onto the ball and lost quite a few of them. But once Phil moved to the left with Riyad hanging on the right and KdB back in business it was matter of.....6 minutes to make it so easy.
Zinchenko definitely needs to ask for substantial pay rise either with us or somewhere else. he's been playing like a clockwork, is there a defensively more improved player in the league right now? And shout to Gaby, that boy is one mean honey badger, his fighting spirit and preparedness to tussle for very single ball gives us so much advantage positionally. Him and Richarlison upfront for us would be fun to watch, I've never seen two more un-Brazilian Brazilian attackers since watching football, excellent on the ball, but run and wrestle like the third division players.

Great win. Still doesn't come close to the feeling after this mind.

Dodgy penalties against us even then.

Long may it continue Bigga

 

[remember arthur mann]

Always championed Olek's, strange some punters can't see his brilliance !

Who's Steffen?

 

[Sheik Battle and Goal]

Was worried they might fluke one from a deflection or corner but otherwise we deserved it.. well played Blues!

Ian Darke is getting worse. Mentioned that Everton beat City in the 1933 final.. talk about desperate. He’s shit at boxing commentary as well the bitter twat

 

[Eccles Blue]

The Boys in Blue never gave in. They fought to the end. Thank you lads. Thank you City.

 

[dickie davies]

but KDB was in the defence and laporte attacking and making the first goal for mr whippy

KDB was brought down on the edge of Everton's penalty area immediately before Laporte's shot!

 

[itsnevereasy]

Gomes - absolutely disgusting player.
Tough game. - kicked all over the pitch, Everton never looked like scoring and it was only a matter of time until we scored.

 

[oldius]

Brilliant from Pep.

 

[oddfellows]

Everton were a disgrace and got exactly what they deserved. 26 years without a trophy and they turn up like that?

Fern just continues to be immense and Gundo has shamed me into not knowing fuck all about football, aside from the fact he has changed position ;)

Love this man.

Foden, tight as a drum, Iniesta-like confidence.

Anyway, the wife has made a chicken and spinach curry and I have a nice bottle of Shiraz to top it off, so spicy is the name of the game tonight.

C'mon City!!!

Just had Chicken Bangla with Madras sauce and rice plus a Grand Reserva Rioja to wash it down
