Match Thread Everton v Fulham - Match Report & MotM Poll

[HTCHERO]

Onana must really think he's world class. Embarrassed for the bloke. Been doing a good job for Everton but he's no Messi. His arrogance has cost us.

Problem is a lot of the young black footballers look upto that dildo Pogba and it's a shame. That pen was straight out of the school of Pogba

Yes I agree but those 12 points have already been achieved now.

We have fans who haven’t seen us even get to a final never mind win a cup. Some haven’t even seen us get to a semi.

I was talking to blue in work and he was saying his kids are in seniors and they’ve never seen us win a derby at Goodison. There’s something seriously wrong with that.

I’d love to win a cup and I really hope it happens soon but I think we’re still in a pretty unstable position off the pitch at the moment. Once the ownership situation is sorted and we move into Bramley Moore, hopefully things will stabilise and we can get into a situation where we can challenge for cups more often. The main thing for me this season is that we get the ownership sorted and become the first PL team to stay up after getting a points deduction. This would have been a great bonus, let’s see if we can do anything in the FA Cup too, tough start though.

That just shows that it’s not a lottery. The same way England aren’t good at penalties in major tournaments but the Italians and Germans are. Liverpool have an unbelievable penalty record so if it’s a lottery how is that the case? It isn’t and never has been. The same way every single player on the pitch in the second CL final between Atletico and Real Madrid knew that Real would be winning that cup.

It comes down to mentality, and the only way you build that as a club is by actually getting over the line in some of these shoot outs and not doing stupid nonsense like this.

If Liverpool and Everton ended up in a penalty shoot out to decide a league cup then every one of their players and fans would expect them to win it and our players and fans would expect to lose. Because shoot outs are down to mentality and are not a lottery.

The Italians are awful in penalty shootouts by the way, which just shows how bad England are!!

Never thought if that mate. Remember that pen.

Imagine getting Boro over two legs and West Ham in the final.

Moyes won’t win at Anfield for the first time, so don’t worry.

Gutted. I really am

[PhilEFC]

We didn’t really get going and the crowd was really flat tonight.

Could have gone either way, but to get to pens and then miss the winning penalty like that is galling.

 

[BlueToff]

We were crap.

The next step for this team is having some composure when chasing a game.

I just hope it doesn't dent confidence too much because of the manner they went out.

 

[Paul Rideout]

Real opportunity lost.

What an awful peno.

What happened to Tarkowski. Most missed it at the game.

Also, are deliberate handballs not yellow cards anymore? I always thought they were

For me, we started slow then got into the game and it was all us 1st half, bar the late goal and that free kick just before the goal. 2nd half i just actually felt like we werent doing much and didnt actually think we would score, probably not helped by Fulham none stop time wasting defo the 1st 15 or so mins of the 2nd half - then we score a min later via Beto, thought we would either then go on and win it late or via pens

Their striker stamped on him after they had a bit of coming together I think.

He pushed Muniz and then Muniz had a kick back. Bit of a dramatic fall by Tarks and the ref just decided to have a word.
