Everton (H)- Doomsday?!

[Blanchflower]

Good performance all things considered. Lots of positives, deserved a win but I'll settle for a point.

Very disappointed by the 'you don't know what you're doing' chants though. Feeds my fear that there are people out there that are just waiting for us to go wrong, so that they can revel in being 'right'.

Some of our fans are absolute cunts.

Those were directed at the referee

 

[frontwheel]

Hopefully, but doesnt that feed into the theory that we are a "one man team". If the players lost focus the last three months because they assumed Bale would take care of it, we have problems.

Im not so sure its their focus, but their ability (talking about Dempsey, Holtby and Siggy). And Ade needs support from the crowd, which he isnt getting.

I dont see AVB as a manager who makes simple changes to deal with injuries either. Hope Im wrong obviously, but just dont share the enthusiasm that losing our two most important players at this stage, is going to have an a good affect and kickstart our season.

Yeah, AVB's a shit manager. That's why we're third in the table at this stage of what we shouldn't forget is a very transitional season. Take your prozac before you self-harm.

That shit twitter feed post has royally fucked the page for my browser

Great attempt at a run there from Adebayor. He's looking better this week!

 

[Someareteeth]

This season = Another false dawn

As you were

Go away

 

[BushHillSpurs]

Anyone else embarrassed by the mass exodus of our fans at the moment?
Hang your heads mugs...

2-2 with 3 points to fight for

 

[Mikey McMoose]

Despite the woeful ref it was a pretty decent performance from our weakened side and I will certainly take a draw. If Chelsea drop points it's still in our hands, especially since we play them. Finishing above the goons is of course preferable but let's just focus on our team.

Also, booing, entitled fans give me your tickets, thanks.

 

[GlosYid]

Defoe invisible as well

And Dempsey, Oh wait......

 

[BushHillSpurs]

bubbazz

Troll anyone?

 

[Lister]

Anyone notice Evertons new defensive technique.

Like the likes of Stoke before them where negative play against the spirit of the rules, because its "them" it seems to be allowed.

Obstruction. Deliberate and tactical obstruction. Well done Moyes, a new low.

 

[Pyro_era]

From the BBC twatter thing:


Hmmmm.... Fucking window has fucked us in AND out!

nah, this loan will make him a better player for next season

 

[Blanchflower]

You never know, he could step up for the rest of the season. Bit of confidence will do him the world of good, whats that now 3 goals in 4 games?

Definitely down to confidence, if half the twats in the crowd realise this now and actually encourage him rather than booing then we've got half a chance of winning some of the remaining games.

 

[Papa]

I feel pretty optimistic for top 4 at the moment.
As long as we don't lose to Chelsea I think we will be OK. They still have Liverpool and United away, local derby against Fulham away and also Villa away who are hitting a bit of form. Everton home last day of the season won't be easy either.
They also have a trip to Russia and most likely 2 semi final games in the EL, plus the FA cup too.

Surely they will struggle with the amount of games they have.

We on the other hand, have a break after Thursday with key players coming back. Hopefully a fresh full squad for the final 6 games.

:avbpray:

 

[jimmyriggle]

It's at home bro

 

[Sanchez18]

I wouldn't mind putting Walker on the wing but I don't think it's our best option. I think our best option is to condense the pitch. Putting Siggy and Holtby on the wings allowing them to cut in is our best option.
Lloris
Walker - Dawson - Vert - Bae
Parker - Dembele
Holtby - Dempsey - Siggy
Ade

 

[sammyspurs]

.................Ade...............
.............Dempsey............
Siggy.........Carroll..............Dembele
..............Parker......................
BAE....Vert.....Dawson........Walker
..............Lloris................

Personally, Id swap Ade and Lloris.

Nice touch putting Vertonghen up front though, and pushing the full backs up.

Also, not sure if Dawson can play the highline that far up.

 

[TommyD123]

Please AvB, bench Walker for this game

I disagree. Despite all his calamities this season, and despite Naughton's relative error free performance last night, we missed Walker's bombing on against Basel.

Best tactic on Sunday is keeping Baines defending and Walker can at least do that

 

[truetomyself]

his goal came via good fortune

Still, he scored, no? Isn't that what matters?
Seriously, there's no pleasing you guys.

 

[Blanchflower]

kickstart our season.

Huh?

We are in the top 3 not the bottom 3.

 

[NorseYid]

Oh god. Good goal for Everton. WHAT WAS OUR DEFENCE DOING?

The same we have been doing all game.

Ballwatching.
