Call me mad, but I think we might have got the formation and team right for this one.

20 shots on goal 10 on target.

[Toffeelover]

You are mad.

Ben Foster, take a bow, certainly helped stoke up the flames today. Great team performance, enjoy MOTD everyone.

Thanks for the tip. Time to watch again

Nice win. Leeds going down with Newcastle, unlikely but it would be fun.

I’ve been going to Everton for over 40 years and that today was up there with one of the best ever performances from every single player to the superb fans who were also magnificent with the support from the first minute onwards

Goal! Coleman!

Pretty sure that @coollino is really a time-traveller ya know.
It was just such a completely random thing to post a couple of hours before kick off.

I'm going to be basking in this for a year, you'll all be sorry

DCL made a big difference today

Not sure. Think he is still feeling his way back. I am a big fan by the way and when he is fully sharp it will be great. Lampard has already shown that we don't need to rely on a powerful centre forward though. More strings to the bow

 

[tommytowne]

Still buzzing from the whole shebang. The crowd without doubt best for a long, long while. The team responding accordingly.
More of the same please.

Barry was brilliant. I think Van De Beek can be better.

Agree there mate - if not for us then in his career. I'm just going to enjoy him while he's here. I'm glad we didn't sign him under Benitez as he'd have been criminally miss-used.

 

[BlueToff]

Just a shame that that bunch of players couldn't put in a performance like that in around 7 to 8 matches earlier in the season. All those hapless defeats. We wouldn't then be celebrating pulling a little clear of the relegation zone. But there again if we had been winning those earlier matches , we'd still be stuck with Benetiz. It's a funny old game.
I think that we will be ok now with Lampard.

The manager plays a big part (in both defeats and wins), as the players do in both too.

But we've at least got a manager who is going to try and play in a positive way.

Southampton now - we have to maintain the level at least

Phenomenal from players to the fans.

Goodison Park...when it is like it was today, no other place in the world I would rather be.
