Match Thread Everton v Tottenham Hotspur, Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

Me either mate, a system that was supposed to fix dodgy decisions is properly bent, and they are serving it all up on screens to boot.

Then you get pundits backing clearly wrong decisions, it's like we missed a memo.

It’s becoming a popularity contest rather than a game of skill.

 

[Wayno]

Can we just workout why they looked at the handball for a good 2 or 3 minutes and still didnt give a handball? What is actually going on? What is the point of VAR if that is not a penalty???? I am just beyond fed up of this rubbish. We are crap like, anyone making excuses for keeping this idiot on needs to look at the bigger picture, but VAR has genuinely cost us 4 points in 2 league games. It was introduced to get decsions right and i just dont udnerstand why it isnt.

The refs don’t care about making the right decision. They care about making the decision that’s going to cause the least backlash

Silva survives another week.

We fail to beat a team at home doing as badly as us. More reasons to justify not winning and at least it's not a loss.

Midfield ripped apart and it's only November.

Each game down takes us closer to the point of no return in regards to replacing Silva. Only 2 wins in 11 , he was sacked for less at Watford. We aren't seeing any benefit from ignoring that, I dread to think what will happen if we don't win the next 3.

But.....I did say before kick off we needed 10 from 12 at least and we are on course for that. So can't really kick off on here until next week

Game looked like 2 very ordinary lower mid table sides trying to grind out a result. As worrying as that is for us what must the Spurs fans think, they were in the champions league final a few months ago. We, on the other hand have been crap for years.
Gave Tommy D my man of the match vote, I came close to voting for Holgate though as his pace makes the middle of our defence look slightly less porous.

 

[N.S.N.O.]

If that Alli handball isn't given as a peno for Liverpool at Anfield at any point this season, I'll get YNWA tattooed on my forehead...

 

[d34noj]

And I suppose you were rooting for the Devils club in the champions league final?.... nah thought not.... wum

Didn't watch it, couldn't care less what that pair of clubs do unless it impacts Everton.

As for WUM? been here over 10 years, not here to wind people up.

 

[windymiller]

...Gomes had just caught the player in the face, so the pace on the tackle was retribution.

Correct

Shearer giving Gallagher a roasting.

What did he say?

 

[Sarnia Kevin]

Tom Davies definitely our outstanding player today.
Atkinson a complete disgrace - as usual.
Sidibe okay, but too slow and inaccurate in his passing.
VAR - by all the guidelines Deli Alli handball should have been a penalty.
Richarlison - the only reason he wasn't given a penalty is because he doesn't spell his name MANE.
Cenk Tosun - Supersub.
Our goal was how we should be playing all the time - slick accurate and fast.
Overall a terrible game by both sides, although Spurs showed less of an attacking threat than we did and that's saying something!!

 

[dannyboy]

He had to go out all attack, Davies had a real good game but it was tactical. We needed to keep Delph on as a DM and not swap about so it was an understandable decision.

We should have got all 3 points but that´s where we are right now. I would stay with a midfield 3 next week and make us difficult to beat though. We need to make things difficult for Southampton.

Well you're something starting with 'W' coming up with shabite like that.

 

[sageyefc]

Shearer and Wright slaughtering var against us tbf

 

[Tommy F]

Watched the Rugby League (NZ v Lions), used screen, explained as they went on, worked. Its football that is crap.

Well it's a good job I'm not here to be your best mate isn't it.

It was a blatant red. Just seen the elbow by Gomes on Son, who's to say it wasnt retaliation.

Challenge from behind = red.
