I've seen the opposite happen a few times over the years, where we were the ones crumbling to pieces. So yeah, very refreshing to see us doing it to someone for a change. Just goes to show how much a part the fans play in football. No way that result goes the same way last season in an empty Goodison. Without fans, football is nothing.Although one was unfortunately offside I can't remember the last time we've just overwhelmed a team scoring goals like that within the space of minutes, excellent to watch
Even though we all deride fans taking videos at games, there is one knocking about on twitter which covers the Townsend and Gray goals in succession. As Townsend cuts in, you can hear "have a go...go on...get in..." very reminiscent of the shouts before Jelavic goal v City..."just f**kin hit it lad...."cue eruption
Waving about like limbs after the Gray goalthat the crutches one? if so great clips them
I have to admit after the first half I was asking to have Townsend to be the first substitute to be made with him not very much in the game at that time, but it shows what I know.Fair play to Benitez last night, our initial set up wasn’t working - he worked out what was needed and changed it.
I must have been one of the few to be happy to see us going 3 at the back - they play 2 up front, so we could man mark their forwards and have the spare man to attack the ball. It didn’t work - our full backs were too high and they pressed us, meaning we had to knock it long which they dealt with no issue.
He brought on Gomes to give us the extra man in the middle, which allowed Doucoure to have a greater impact going forward as he became the spare man.
It’s a simple game at times.
Get Townsend off
Think that's that.
These will snide this out against our lot of soft arses.
Benitez is as clueless as the ref
Come on Benitez, show us some coaching!
All of you “proper fans” who said Rafael needs a chance, reveal yourselves so I can smite you.
Is Benitez waiting for us to go 2-0 down before changing this?
Errr Waiter - there's some dross on the pitch. Can you change it please?
Benitez has got it massively wrong tonight, Gomes not the answer.....
Tactical genius
Wanted him to change that crap 5 at the back formation. He did and we scored 3 goals.
Get things in perspective - my quote was while we were 0-1 down, and going nowhere. Smartarse.
5 at the back against Burnley wasn’t working
