Match Thread Everton 4-0 Leicester. Sat Feb 1st. 3pm

[Bilko]

Do we field a weakened team vs Bournemouth to keep everyone fresh for The Derby?

I'm not sure we have enough squad players to do that ??

No let's try and win the tie and progress. Enough of our cowardly attitude to winning things we should expect to challenge.

I went for Garner, but would have given it joint to him and Beto if I could. To say he has been out so long, Garners touch, attitude and energy were exceptional. Beto looked like an actual centre forward and particularly for his second gol looked assured and clinical. Very impressive from them both. Still big areas of concern (our performance and energy levels in the second half was almost as bad as it was against spurs). That needs sorting out before we play the rs, or they will smash us.

Nevertheless, lots to be positive bout and lets hope this Alcaraz guy is joined by a few more

What is the point of us as a club if we don’t try and win a cup

That postgame interview with Beto were pure class

Not many mornings after a game as Evertonian's we get to wake up still buzzing

Great this. Just what we needed. I’ve been busy in work the last two games against Spurs and Leicester and both times I’ve refreshed my phone to see we were 2-0 up.

Just great for a change.

9 points above the foxes now and surely we can build on that. I think the derby is a bit beyond hope this season. They seem to be getting all that Liverpool luck again. Never a pen yesterday, Bournemouth hit the bar at 0-0, but who knows. As for the cup, yes it would be nice but again all I want this season is for us to stay up and get to this new stadium where hopefully we finally go right, let’s go and sign some boss players.

Nice to look at a match thread and not automatically vote for Pickford as man of the match as he usually keeps us in games.

Must have been nice for him to have a day off

Well played. You were/are everything we should be. Fight, determination, players look like they care and manager who obviously knows how to get the best out of those players. You should have had 5 and I'm not even bothered now. We're just a joke and the sooner something changes for us the better.

Apologies for sections of our fans with the Vardy "banter". "He's won more than you", man it's embarrassing. The same section actually sing it to clubs like Villa too.

I don't think you're in a relegation battle anymore so good luck next season, I think Moyes will push you really like he did at West Ham recently. Maybe we'll visit your new ground one day, but it won't be next season and probably not the season after either..

Don’t know about anyone else but I certainly enjoyed that yesterday .

Started with pace , pressing high up the pitch , playing to Beto’s strengths rather than shoehorning him in , superb performances from the midfield (garner in particular) , ndiaye at his mercurial best and a solid defensive performance. It doesn’t feel like it’s taken rocket science to turn this around but credit to Moyes for doing a great job so far .


Waking up feeling rough with a smile on my face , long may it continue.

That's a bit harsh tbh - you're not all Tories


And... 4-1 Everton. Beto hattrick and Doucs with a thirty yard screamer

Thank you. No we're not all tories, good grief, but we've got a large section of weird fans it's true.
I just posted actually but I 100% knew the same idiots would sing "he's won more than you" about Vardy. To a club with 9 league titles haha. Unbelievable.
