He’s perpetuated ‘Everton that’ and the idea that somehow some way we don’t get over the line in big moments. That could be more damaging than any lost points in the long run for the club. What’s doubly criminal is that had he scored we would have shaken off some of that mentality and bounced into the Dpurs game thinking we were unbeatable. A massive massive step backwards.

We've dodged bullets here.

Bigger fish to fry.

I'd take a point v Spurs over a SF berth in the LC.

That's where we are.

Ok, silly mistakes.

But doesn't deserve half the crap he gets most of the time.

If at any point, we need to sell, I bet half the fan base would call him out as one of the most valuable assets. Some might not agree, but he is.

It was a lottery as another posted.

Whats more important right now is to keep the spirit and to show the PL the two fingers at the end of the season.

He's valuable in the senses he's young, strong, and as I've said many times he has a high ceiling imo. That's why I'm frustrated he doesn't take hold of games more, I think he's got the ability to do that.

The issue I've got is what he did tonight completely flies in the face of everything we're trying to achieve, and totally contradicts what Dyche said just last week about authenticity etc.

Look, he'll know he's messed up, I know, and I trust those who matter to deal with it/support as appropriate, but that was really, really bad tonight.

I get it, im hurt also. In fact, wounded, like all of us. But to go on with half the sihte im reading is just a bit bizarre. I can bet he's feeling even worse than us right now

Good and so he should but I doubt he’s hurting more than the men and women who go home and away and have done for years to see us win nothing.

wasn't even close to the corner though was it. And a shot that had less power than a wind chime.

Doesn't matter, if the keeper had dived to the right, which could well have happened, he'd have scored. I'm not saying it was a good penalty,but I've seen plenty as bad as that, I thought he'd gone to Panenka it and fallen on his bottom the way people were talking about it.

The keeper could have broken his spine on the penalty before and still saved that pen.

It was literally passed to him, it was terrible.
 

It's great people saying "it happens, he'll learn from it".

I'm sure he will, but I bet it won't be another penalty shoot out for Everton where he redeems himself. Every 5 or so years we get the odd chance to get a semi final/final and usually blow it. That was our chance tonight and he'll be long gone by the time the next chance comes for another player to blow it
