[MrGrumpy]

Thought Richy was poor today, hope the media digging at him hasn’t got to him. Loads of poor passing in the 1st half

 

[blulouie]

Anyone who says he wasn't chitting himself in the last 6 minutes is a liar.

I wasnt

 

[blulouie]

How did Tommy D perform?

Next question pls

 

[NorthernBlue]

Change a winning formula or put Rodriguez into first team for Utd then?

Miss his creativity massively. Tough one

Great win again ;-)
Easy to point fingers and complain about some players and even if we rode our luck, why not?
Great night to be a Toffee ;-)

How did Tommy D perform?

Better than his average in the first half then he gave away a terrible peno when Arsenal weren’t in the game. And disappeared in second half.

How did Tommy D perform?

Thought he was alright, Pen he gave away was similar to the Gomes one at Newcastle.
Other then that did alright.
Was backs to the wall most of the game without really being troubled

Taking nothing away from today's win there was a distinct lack of creativity ..I don't believe we can continue to hope for the sort if results we have had over the last three games without that added spark from an attacking midfielder.

James?

 

[Davideeyore]

BBC Teletext headline Arsenal fall to eigth league defeat. Clearly more important than Everton up to second with Arsenal win

Yeah pretty much this. Pretty good first half penalty aside. Invisible second half
