Everton (A) 21/6/2020

[M_B]

At this stage of things, that'll do pig, that'll do.

[Thoth]

Fucking waited 102 days for that

[skend04]

Lost momentum when Keita went off but will take a point as it's virtually the start of a new season for the players with very little practice.

[3 Stacks]

Had absolutely nothing in attack. Not sure why we needed 4 central midfielders on the pitch. And of course Lovren comes on and does his clown routine.

Beat Palace don't lose to City, over.

City draw tomorrow beat City and its done

[Red74]

We’ve played like that a lot this season and been lucky to scrape a win.

Didn't want to win it till the City game anyway

I wanted those chumps to clap us on to the pitch so they knew they’d fucking lost.

Palace you mean?

[Heinze]

BORING

[Bobby Hundreds]

Making out Everton will be the more dissapointed.. they had a chance like the one time they had the ball in our half. Bus sitting wankers.

[El Rojo]

That was awful. But a derby game is always going to suffer more in these circumstances.

 

Agree with the view that them playing in front of their own crowd would have opened the game up a bit. 
 

Alisson - everything you’d want in a goalkeeper. Earned his money tonight after 80 minutes of complete inaction. 

[aRdja]

That was a let down. It was there for us to win easy too. Gomes and Davies in the middle, and Holgate behind them. We didn’t give them enough. I knew Robbo was good, but I didn’t think he was essential to our attack. I remember fantastic games we played with Milner at LB, a couple of years ago now.

I'm most disappointed in Mane tonight, he's been garbage.

Think Arnold, Oxlade and obviously Lovren were all far worse.

[Carvalho Diablo]

All right footers down the left is a killer.

 

Zero creativity in midfield.

 

Shit game, 1 point closer. Come on you Mighty Reds.

[an tha]

The small time bitter fucks will be delighted with that - which lets face it is all they had any ambition of.

Really frustrating that and just adds to the 'wait goes on narrative'.

 

They were there for the absolute taking but we never looked at any time like we could - hopefully that has blown some cobwebs away and we are better on Weds.

Didn't think Mane was too bad given Coleman was allowed to grab hold of him whenever he felt like it.

You dont need to win to be a winner when the opposition have Lovren in defence.

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

Not even football was the winner there, tonight. 

 

You could see that it was two teams that hadn't played a proper game in about 3 months. 

 

I'm more arsed about this. Fucking Fabinho, with his clean tackles and all that. He can go in the autumn. 

[niallers]

Poor and it was feared rather than expected. Not our first choice team and combined with the fact that we're quite poor after a long break, that's what we got. Palace have far better attackers than the ev so it's going to be a very hard game on Wed. We should be better for having played here though. 5 points and counting.

Wouldn't surprise me if we don't get it done till after City, which is totally fine, I just can't be arsed with the hysterical fannyitis that will no doubt spring up in waves rivalling covid .

 

[Baltar]

That was shite. To be expected considering the long break but still, was difficult to watch. Two injuries already. Bit of a shit day all round but at least we got a point, I was seriously worried when Lovren came on that we could actually lose.

[clockspeed]

Nothing new apart from Fab getting even better.  Keitas and Minaminos Improvement in training not translating onto the pitch.

[Guest]

Third draw in a row at Goodison. They don't know how to beat us and we are consistent against them. Happy with the 0-0 snotting.

Keita was fantastic. 

[dockers_strike]

Trent was meh and we missed Robbo and Mo. While Robbo should be back Wednesday not sure about Mo. Degsy, what a fucking mare he had when he came on. I honestly thought he was going to gift them the game. Just stay on yer fucking feet and dont lunge in.

 

Overall, not sure if Im disappointed or relieved in the end. We just wanted too long on the ball in front of goal plus Trent's eye being off didnt help. I am disappointed we didnt try a few shots on goal. Looks like Joe got a slight touch on that one that hit the post for them!

 

But it's just 5 points needed now. Going to take a Burnley win tomorrow now for us to have a chance of winning it at Anfield else it's the emptyhad or later.

Let's be honest City absolutely beast Burnley.  I'm thinking it might be the villa game we win the league or worst case Brighton. Goes beyond that and I'm hibernating.
