Speaking of winning 3 games against them this season, anyone know of any other times we have beaten the same side 3 times in a season?

Struggling to think of any..

Didn't we beat a team three times when we got to the Cup final in 08/09? I think it has happened fairly recently but I can't remember for sure. West Ham maybe? Villa? Ah crap I have no idea.
 
Hard to reconcile Swansea's playing style/performance with their league position. Maybe there is some truth to this 'avoid the Europa' talk.

Stats say it all really, Swans played some slick stuff on our patch today and it was frustrating to see us getting outplayed like. That said, the most important stat is the one we came out on top with, yet again.

Thats 3 out of 3 against them this season, and they've still never beaten us, but I still don't like playing against them. It's weird.

Swans deserved a pt but there have been many a case in which we deserved a point or 3 and didn't get it. Yea despite us always winning its usually nerve-wracking because its often end to end. Loved watching them giving it a go. Of teams below Spuds only Hull really took it to us at Goodison. My favorite match of the season was Everton-Hull. We were on a insane hot streak and Hull came in, brought their A game and came at us while we raised our game to pull out a tough win.

i think shelvey would be great here, especially in home games against park the bus teams, mccarthy, barkley and shelvey would be a great midfield three. he has the ability to play the through balls we desperately need, can strike a ball beutifully and is also very comfortable on the ball with a great engine. basically a more attacking mccarthy. obviously he's a bit naiive and can suffer the odd moment of head-rush, but he's still young. firmly believe liverpool will regret selling him, he would get in their team now imo, has more to offer than coutinho, from what i've seen anyway.

Said this for a while....underrated because he played across the park. I'd add Andy Wiemann at Villa to the list of very affordable players who would strengthen our squad for a Europa League campaign next season.
 
shocking performance yesterday how we won i will never know, never seen us so out played at goodison for a long time, nice to get the points tho, start again v newcastle, mirallas can leave in the summer pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeee dreadful player and if osman played as bad he would get slated. barry looks done totally knackered, barkley was excellent and howard was MOTM for me
 
Seems Mirallas has become the new whipping boy.

Some of the moaning and groaning at GP yesterday was embarrassing. Lukaku was getting abuse from some ted in the Paddock for holding onto the ball trying to tee up a shot, fella stands up and gives him dogs abuse. Said to one of the lads "that pr1ck will be cheering his name in a minute", and sure enough he lays it off to Mirallas, receives the return and slots. Que kn0bhead sing "Rom-e, Romeluuu....".

If you want to know how not to coach football come sit in the Paddock and listen to some of the experts.....absolutely laughable...." smash it long", "speed it up....slow it down....smash it lad".
 

We we're outplayed yesterday. We need more creativity through the middle, that much is obvious, but we also need a bloke up top with a great first touch to bring others into play. Technically, Lukaku doesn't look all that at all, and he can't touch/run with the ball like an Aguero, Suarez, Sturridge, Rooney or even Michu or Adebayor.

This summer is hugely important, we need 5 new players, assuming Barry is the only one who signs permanently, and they could all do with being permanent. But they need to have quality in the final third or we're going to struggle.

Honourable mention to McGeady, enjoyed his performance a lot.
 
Just ashamed of some people claiming to be Evertonians, spoilt kids behave better.

Since the derby and despite results and where we are in a transitional season moaning is what it's become about both at the ground and on the forums.

Loyal supporters???? don't make me laugh, getting shown up by Utd tourists backing Moyes ffs.

Try taking the longer view and give Martinez and the blues a chance you spineless cretins.
