Ive seen a few comments along the lines of "We cant beat Swansea we have no chance of top 4"

Arsenal where beaten 2-0,Man Utd drew 1-1 and Chelsea drew 1-1 as well

So all of those teams must be as bad as we are

And we've always struggled against sided who set up to defend and counter under Moyes.

A combination of players not being as good as we'd like, not being good enough tactically and bad luck means its always going to happen in some games.

Given other results today its not the worst result in the world.

thats the issue with me though mate how are we ever to break into the top 4 when we win when they win but dont win when they slip up?
 
Phil Neville needs to retire. When he's not making five yard passes he's taking the ball off Coleman as he's about to shoot. Crap.

Coleman was great, the difference in our attacking play when he's on the pitch is huge.
 

[QUOE=electricblue;1679988]Considering Spurs dropped 2 points as well, West Brom lost, and Arsenal have a difficult game tomorrow it's not THAT bad a weekend.[/QUOTE]

We never take advantage in the league when the opportunity is there.
 
I like what Laudrup has done with Swansea, they're not so one dimensional this season. Playing like that away from home they'll not concede many defeats and they are set up to counter attack really well.

It's a better point for them than us but credit to them, they're far better than most teams to Goodison this season.
 
Anyone giving up on a top 4 finish is off their rocker. We have every chance, there's a long way to go yet.
Luckily the players won't have that attitude.

Mind you some reinforcements would be nice Bill like.

We lost control of the midfield when Neville went off believe it or not, he might be as fast as a training cone and tackle like one but he's our training cone, and I'd rather him than Naismith.

Tactically I couldn't agree more. To watch, not pretty!!!

With great difficulty.

I know what you're saying and its frustrating but i think we just have to accept today as a point and see it for what it is, 2 points loss but while we didn't gain ground we didn't really lose ground.

If we'd have been gash, or played too defensively or been robbed it would be more frustrating but we pretty much tried everything we could today to score but just weren't good enough on the day.
