Match Thread Everton v Chelsea - Preview, Match Report & MotM Poll.

[Colonel Getafe]

Need to keep it up but very hard on the nerves

You should check with your doctor, but there's probably a pill available for that......

That was more like it. Keep fighting and playing for each other like that and we’ll be safe.

UTFT

Southampton are in it now too. They have only 3 matches and if they loose all 3... 2 away. Brentford and Leicester. One at home against.....Liverpool FC.

I think Burnley are in bunker mode, they won't care what we're doing. They expected to be down here fighting for their lives, having us for company is a bonus.

Leeds probably thought they were almost home and hosed after winning at Watford. They have to match our result with Chelsea to stand any chance. I make them favourites for the drop, but not by much.

That’s win today was obviously massive for us, but it will make thing harder for Leeds against Chelsea they really need one more win to cement 3, had they beaten us that would have been the win, I'm sure they will beat Leeds

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

Do we even need to bother with a MOTM vote?

 

[tellmema]

Are we actually going to do this?

We can't have a season where we've actually beaten Chelsea, Man Utd and Arsenal and still go down?

I'm starting to hope again; our remaining games all look winnable especially as Leeds now have a horrible run of fixtures.

UTFT

This result can't be underestimated..... HUGE!

With GD too, I fancy our chances. Hopefully, this is the instigation for a run of performances and results akin to those we gave Burnley and Newcastle.

If only they hadn't been gifted that corrupt 3-2 against Wolves after being 2-0 down....

Hmm a little bit over the top there. Rüdiger did hit him in the face. 100% luck there. At least he put his body on the line. The very good safe was the one after the ball hit the post and Azpilicueta had an open goal to score! The rest was bread and butter!

​

So you think Richi was offside and Pickford was lucky? Hmm…

 

[PhilM]

Up the fluffin’ toffees. Attitude, grit and composure - that’s what we’ve asked for and they delivered.

 

[royalblue66]

My daughter's boyfriend left after we went ahead - they are so sour

Bitter, is the word, mate.

 

[BigMick]

These players have made me feel ashamed and embarrassed so often this season but every one of them was immense today - keep it up!

 

[Eggs]

The best battling performance I have seen from this squad. Need to keep it up but very hard on the nerves

….the misses from Mykolenko & Gray didn’t help and we could have pinched one with Rondon’s little run near the end.

 

[blindbert]

Great to see a Brazilian with flare!
