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

[Chewbacca]

Anyone else just feel absolutely nothing from it all anymore? Can’t just be me.

Me too. That’s me and “football “ done.Corrupt beyond redemption.

Son made that challenge in anger, at best it was a malicious tackle - he's putting in the challenge to bring Gomes down, never to win the wall.

Anyone who has played the game will see that.

You could see after he never got the pen decision that he was leaving a bit in whenever he went into challenges afterwards leading up to that, he’s a sly little tit

 

[N.S.N.O.]

Sky presenter just suggested "Gomes might be out 3 months, 6 months?".....

3 months?!!!!.... Who hired that clown...

 

[Bob Latchford]

Shearer giving Gallagher a roasting.

Was he the VAR ref?
Good god.
Thought Atkinson was woeful and I don’t like blaming refs but he’s had an awful games more or less blew up right on 12 mins as well when there probably should have been more time.

Me, never thought I’d lose my passion for Everton but I’m flat as a pancake.
I only ask for 100% effort, nothing more

 

[Parker]

Definitely get well soon Gomes.
Anyone that thinks son tried to injure him hasn’t played the game. He tried to clip which anyone who’s played even 5 a side has done at some point, but not to to break his legs.

It was pure retaliation from about 2 minutes before when he caught a loose hand from Gomes. He flew in with the intention to leave one on him.

He succeeded.

Awful injury . Here's hoping that Comes makes a complete recovery. And gets back to something like his best. Although I suspect that will not be for about a year. Maybe more. Good luck to the lad.
As for our team I hope that Schniederlin is not reinstated. Delph I suspect will now be a regular. I hope also that Davies is. This is his chance.
And Siggy or Iwobi will now make up our line of three. Hopefully Iwobi can be used centrally. Maybe Beni on the bench.
Tosun now deserves to play next week.

And I suppose Silva has got a reprieve. Although I still want him gone.
I point today is just about ok. Not great. Just ok. But that point will look better if we can win next week..

Last point........it's time that we as a club started to complain about VAR.
The powers that be at Goodison need to officially complain about VAR and certain referees. Make it known that we are not happy. #### the FA.
I don't care if they are not amused. Who cares. It's a bloody disgrace.
Ask them straight out if there is an agenda against Everton.......We don't have to accept every bloody decision. Let people know that we are not happy.
Anyhow........let's beat Southampton next week. Goodnight.... NSNO......

Agree 100% on VAR. Everton is legitimately getting screwed. Atkinson and Mason should never Ref an Everton Game.

To me that looks like Gomes' foot is behind Aurier's, not beneath it

Well then this lies at the referees feet for not spotting this and doing something about it before it happened.

just heard Saha, Carragher &Cahill discuss it. Tbh I think they’re right the new rules are dangerous in that any foul where he’s not intending to play the ball is a potential red.

 

[Mikey O]

Plenty of talent on the pitch but with no plan from the manager; nor any change in tactics when it starts to go wrong.

Delph is ******* useless; in the last few minutes he was given so much space and yet refused to go forward to commit a Tottenham player and make the pass. No, he prefers to play one of his trademark swinging passes out wide when the payer is already marked. I don't see him take any responsibility; he prefers to stay out of trouble and put the onus on younger players to make something happen - he clearly hides. He was able to do that at City because he had players like Silva and Sterling in front of him. He won't do anything for us.

 

[Sverre Takleifbotten]

Not a foul on Ali according to tje rules:

"So a handball will not be awarded if the ball touches a player’s hand/arm directly from their own head/body/foot or the head/body/foot of another player who is close/nearby".

 

[TwoWreathsOneTower]

Gomes out for the season at least by the look of the images. Think we are now in a relegation battle.

 

[EFCPaul]

Son is a rat, end of.
