Match Thread Everton v Brighton Hove Albion - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Devanski]

He sounded like a salty nob after the game Potter. You'd think we were fortunate to even beat them based on his demeanour afterwards.

I’m sure he said they were actually the better side in the first half ...
unbelievable lol

Player Ratings:

Pickford 2- Seem not able to cover post to post from long range missiles. Neither can cope with short range head on softies, palming either into goal or giving assist.

Coleman 8- Appreciate his value more when you see how Davies is so vulnerable at his position.

Keane 7- A bit tired after 6 continuous full game otherwise accomplished.

Mina 9- Important header reminding us of his 2 headers before half time which calmed the team going into the tunnel. His timely blocks helped keep classic Everton self implosion at bay.

Digne 8- Decent game.

Doucoure 8.5- Have to be less box to box as need to cover for slower compatriots Sig n Tom. Else when free to advance crafted assist of beauty.

Siggy 7- Played his heart out tracking back in first half. 2nd half was less visible.

Davies 6- Painfully awkward in first half, clueless and shied away from receiving passes in opponent's half. Beside passing back he was again gutless. 2nd half put in a couple of tackles and was more lively when we led by 2 goals. Vulnerable at right back.

James 9.5- One assist, Two goals, pace maker, goal creator, pass stringer, … just magnificent footballer.

Richarlison 8- Can see the injury affected him but faultless in commitment, which resulted in aggravating his injury. A warrior.

DCL 8- Can't seem to shake off scoring. Hope he keeps up with the addiction.

Delph 7.5- Revived player after his sent off and the long break. Seem to be more humble and wants to improve. Decent today.

Walcott 5- Under performed perhaps to less game time.

Carlos 9- Equalled Four wins feat since 1895. Not easy accomplishment if you are managing the Blues.

COYB, UTT. Derby's next.

I think you were a little unfair with Davies. I think he played a much better game than what you give him credit for. Walcott on the other hand should have gotten a lower score. He really looked like someone who didn't think belong to the party. I remember seeing him in Arsenal (new Everton fan via James and Mina) and I'm shocked how bad he is playing. I would put Gordon in front of him at this point.

His team were dire in both boxes. That's what counts.

Absolutely, they were a gang gloggers, tried kicking James and Richie out of the game in the 1st 20 mins,and succeeded in Richie's case. James must've been hacked down about 5 times in the 1st 20 mins.

Now let's do the RS.

Doucoure won us this game in the middle of the park I believe. James is the icing on the cake just oozes class that guy.

What a great day to say hello to everybody after a while on this forum!
Villa boys from Astron didn't travel fare to make me laugh like a hyena , and Hammers made some justice with all these 5 penalties in 2 games nonsense of Foxes.

Loved the headline in sports page of Melbourne paper this morning.

Everton goes top, Leeds excites, but City in Dias straits.

Good result. We need to stop conceding multiple goals at home though else we'll get punished at somepoint.

Like Villa were lol lol lol

Anyone got a link to a second half replay, can only find the first half on the usual sites.

As said on another thread, just got back from short safari here in Botswana.. had zero internet. Our guide gave me the result in the morning after.. then this morning to hear the Liverpool result.. the tracker we had this weekend is a Liverpool fan! All set up for the 17th.. watched the extended highlights now.

superb header form DCL.. James makes his first finish seem easy but takes some skill...
Brilliant !
