Howard is terrible.

Just me or did that shot a couple o minutes before half time go well in? Looked like it hit the back of the net and came flying out

ITV are gutted

Never heard commentators be less enthused about a goal being scored than after our 3rd there.

They'll be going bezerk if Liverpool score later.

This Martinez bloke might be an OK manager

our attacking play has been brilliant, stones has been a bit edgy but jagielka standing off their guy was abysmal and how many times do i have to point out that howard gets beaten way too often from range because he stands so far off his line. robles would have saved it, not just saying it to fulfil my vendetta like, but 3 clean sheets in a row followed by 2 goals where we're asking "can the keeper do better?" whether he's at fault or not, he concedes so many goals where we ask the possibility.

martinez has had an utter mare for dropping robles and i'm not the only one that's shocked to see us let in goals again with that clown back in nets.

Well, that was some half. Only turned on after about 20 mins, whereby we promptly scored 2 goals. Y'all can thank me later.

Looking great going forward, but a bit ropey at the back. Great block from McCarthy to keep it 3-1. What is going on with Barry getting so far forward??!

This is gonna be 3/4-5 or something at this rate! Hopefully we can sit back a bit, and keep it tight for the second half, but knowing us that's just asking for trouble!

Great stuff.

Hope Rom gets a hattrick, and the way hes going he will. Then let the Lad Duffus get some minutes

Wrong. That the pass was initially backward (was it?) and the fact that it was deflected are both irrelevant. All that matters is the ball was played by an Everton player and Rom was ahead of both the ball and the second to last defender when the ball was played. Ergo, he should have been ruled offside.

A new phase of play when it hits their man so not offside and the linesman agrees with me

Great half of football.

Only player below par so far is Mirallas who may still be feeling his injury.

orly · February 19, 2015

That was arousing, superb stuff

Listening to his co-commentary, you would never believe that Ratcliffe was a. An Everton player, b. A former Everton Captain and c. the most successful Everton captain. He tries to find fault in everything, a disgrace and worse still he makes the likes of Townsend sound bright.
