Match Thread Everton v Newcastle United, KO 20:00 Mon 23rd April

He does love gum

The “predictable” passing you mention is called build up play.

You then go on to bemoan long balls?! We’ve kept it on the deck a lot more than usual. This is a marked improvement.

In terms of movement, you’ll notice that Newcastle are playing very deep with nine men behind the ball. As I said, it’s simply that final ball in that area of the pitch that’s missing.

Its not 'build up play' when its mostly in ypur half and the opposition are standing off letting you do it. We do that then hit it l9ng as soon as pressed or someone blinks at us

Martinez is definitely winning the World cup to compound our misery this season. On the phone to Dignitas to see what payment plans they have.

See if they do any 2 for 1 offers and I'll chuck in with you mate.

 

[Walken]

by the way this match is fat sam vs spanish fat sam, all the clefts who want el gordo as our manager should have a think about that

 

[Dunc's elbow]

Can we sign the bat that keeps charging left to right, great movement!

I somehow managed to talk the wife into attending the Southampton game....can’t wait.

Why ? You staying at home with your feet up ?

 

[Death]

Coleman and Walcott the only two players who would have reason to worry if a T Rex was released on to the pitch

Would solve a lot of our problems.

 

[Soap]

Our fans have been incredibly geordie like this season tbf. Never known blues like it.

There’s banners at the game and we’re 9th

It’s because people believed the rubbish flying around about Moshiri being the new Roman Abramovich. He isn’t.

 

[BernieWright13]

I think we’re playing quite well actually. Can’t be many games this season that we’ve managed 68% possession.

No wonder we've been peppering their goal

 

[ProZ]

Bolasie is tragic everything breaks down at him

 

[EvertonRhys]

Did they create anything against us?

Very nearly, when we got in to trouble at the back.

That may be classed as domestic abuse sir, start looking for a good lawyer

 

[Sona]

A lot of people clearly have their own agenda and minds already made up.

Sometimes, we need to take a step back and look at the game, not just our preconceived notions.

This season, the following is true:

- Schneiderlin is crap
- We play long ball
- Our football is turgid
- We let teams do what they want against us

However, tonight you have to admit that none of that has been the case. We expected it to be, but it hasn’t.

So appreciate it for what it is.

Bolaise, what a player...

 

[PeregrineT]

Please take bolasie off.....of the team. Another terrible pass, followed up by a long pointless run to go foul a guy.
