Professional job in the end. Just let those stats sink in though as Boreham Wood‘s approach this evening was exactly what Benitez had us doing against teams in the same division just 2 months ago

Brillo Pad head

Yes Buttercup?

I still can't believe we try three at the back, surely when any manager says "Well, we'll have Michael Keane as the libero..." the inevitable following sound of thunder and lightning should give a warning.

Also that Richarlison goal shouldn't have been chalked off, NEA. English refs can get right in the bin.

It was a cup game against a team with 11 men behind the ball without a few key players.
It has no relevance on the league what so ever

Of course a Cup game has no relevance on the league. However we are dependent on this group of players to keep us in the PL. Tonight, frankly, did not fill me with confidence.

Not great. But we are through. Better Everton teams than this bunch have toiled to put away non league opposition. So this is about right. Was never really in any doubt. And we will go stronger against Palace. Not much stronger because we don't have anyone really to come in.
But surely Coleman.....Gray......DCL......Richarlson if all are fit will.start against Palace.
Townsend......Patterson......Rondon and maybe even Gordon wont. I like Gordon. But he doesn't score enough. And my front three is the above mentioned three.
Sorry but Kenny is also our better choice at left back. Anyhow that's all for another day.
Spurs next. And three points. Thank you.
We were wasteful tonight. Our shooting from distance is awful. Hoping and praying that we take whatever chances come against Spurs.
Ps.......are players that are cup tied, cup tied for the whole competition. Or can they come on board later in the competition.
Last comment.....we need a clear out in the summer. A number of our players are just not good enough. Lampard must know that. Let's hope we stay up. Because most of that bunch would struggle in the championship.
Rant over. I'm happy folks. We won tonight. But plenty of work ahead for our new manager. Up The Toffees.

We are still owed a decision at least

 

[Blue Roo]

Would like to have seen more of Dobbin. How the he'll did we end up with El Ghazi.

We should only use it up in the league at this point tbh.

Lads, can we get real here. A highly paid Premier League team struggles to beat a non league team at GP. That is really worrying.

Luton Town nearly beat Chelsea yesterday and you can maybe say they should have.

 

[Sadken]

In all my time watching Everton I have never seen so many players who can't shoot,can't pass or can't control a ball as badly as this lot .made up to be in last eight but the lack of basic skills is shocking .

Too many players out there not good enough for this level

Need Calvert-Lewin Gray and DVDB to be fit for the next sequence on league games this month

 

[urquattro]

Rondon to score against Palace ?
