Match Thread Everton v Sunderland. 1st Nov at 1330.

For a big unit Pantilimon doesn't seem to get in the way of the ball much.

Lukaku is proper weird - can't do a simple 5 yard pass over and over again, yet he can ping off a first time lay off and spread a 50 yard ball cross field on a sixpence.

Jekyll and Hyde, the football version.

 

[Verbal Kint]

Yeah, sadly I think it does Noel.

Well I got the 6 right didn't I.

I'm a prophet me

All is well in the world again

Kone @ 20/1 to score in a 1-0 win. Worth a quid.

I had a hunch today about Kone, just not a hat tricking scoring hunch though.

Could only be Everton when you come out at the end winning 6-2 and we're going on about how poor we've been!!gotta say defensively yet again we were atrocious,Mori was decent but Stones I feel has started to believe his own publicity,we're not cutting off balls into the box with our full backs either,however,some of the stuff we played at times and with a cutting edge was sublime

Nil nil written all over this game.

All three goalscorers!

 

[Furey1878]

Lukaku was immense. About time we utterly bummed a team at Goodison.

Fair play to Sunderland, they tried to play. West Ham will come at us next week and I can see us beating them by 2.
I can't be negative on a day when we score six.

He was very good last season but has been a wreck this

 

[BigDunc'sFod]

Neville?

 

[WarringtonBlue]

Thought you really suffered without Cattermole, Rodwell was alright but isn't the same. M'Vila was very poor, which I was surprised at. You missed Lens and Toivonen

 

[Sunderland afc]

Well played. Started well and then turned to crap. Got back into it and then fell to bits.

Oh well.

 

[Verbal Kint]

Going forward very exciting but we won't be going against Coates and Wes Brown every week, defensively we were a shambles, Mori didn't win a contested header all game, Stones got bored and switched off. Garth Barry had his hands full as McCarthy seemed to be pushed further forward, didn't look comfortable in the role.

Sunderland actually had more attempts and considering they had 35% possession that's worrying. Aerially we look really vulnerable I'd worry about facing Andy Carroll next week.

Kone Rom Barry and Deulefeo were all excellent
