But let's be honest.
Aprt from those 2 crosses, one with Distin unmarked and the other a very good header, Everton didn't actually play much football.
Everton basically kept on humping crosses and long balls into the box, in the hope of goals coming from them, which they eventually did. They also like to put it about a bit and get in the opposing players faces.
How can I sum Everton up.
A poor man's Stoke. (Even Chuckle has the long throw)
(At least when the final whistle goes at Goodison in 2 weeks time, you can applaued another mid-table finish and nothing else)
I know .... but then we'll all have our open bus tour to celebrate beating City again in " Our Cup Final " .... what a shit cup final it is though when everybody knows the result before the game kicks off . Face it ... it's cost you £350m just to equal what Everton have done with an annual spend of £3m for the last 10 years ,. None of you have got the grace or balls to admit that Everton have massively overachieved for the last 10 years and done it by hard work and spirit . We haven't bought our success and we are not in danger of financial implosion .Season after season we take points from all of the more affluent teams and quite often have finished higher than them in the league ..... Only 2 teams have fans who regularly try to belittle us yet we still carry on getting results from them ..... Liverpool and City ... we actually get praise from Utd and Chelsea fans . So when some of us bite back and point out a few obvious flaws after we beat you AGAIN , I'm not sorry you don't like it , or if it winds you up in fact we piss ourselves laughing .All the bitterness , vitriol and anger should be directed at your manager who still doesn't realise that the tired old lion that is Everton FC may no longer be king of the jungle but we've still got some very sharp teeth and maybe sometimes the young kittens might run rings around us for a while but try to knock us over and we'll bite yer balls off . We're here to stay , as determined as ever , might take us a while to wake up but when we do ... BEWARE !!!! :D
