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

[BlueToff]

I'd just like to see us be able to build some better moves and actually get shots on goal.

Two shots on target isn't good enough.

 

[ToffeeTim]

I thought it was a great game. Everton showed plenty of fight. Could have gone either way. Pen decision terrible

Thats the only clips I've seen. Diabolical decision from a consistently poor referee. The VAR ref a joke as well

 

[ForeverEverton]

Holgate is a fair way off right now. Pretty disappointing.

Holgate should never play for this club again, it is only becasue we are so short he plays but he is completely clueless and not good enough for Premier League football.

 

[Frenk]

From what I could make out he does touch it, but Richarlison touched it on first and was tripped by Lloris.

The current rule states that it doesn't matter if you get anything on the ball if you go through the player first which Lloris did.

Shocking overturn from the ref.

I agree with this.

 

[GedMoore]

Clean sheet claxon

 

[Saint Domingo]

If Kavanaugh was too willing to take the opportunity to not give the penalty then why did he give it in the first place, you're too deep down the rabbit hole lad. ?

because he thought it was a stone wall pen which it was, he had to give it. As soon as he saw there was a slight question on it thanks to his mate Moss he couldn’t wait to overturn it

Another point between us and the relegation zone. Sorry but when you’ve got players like Keane Holgate Davies Coleman in your line up that’s how you have to think at times, get safe first, get to the end t transfer window and get rid of these utter clowns.

Spot on. Been saying it all season: 45 points is the realistic first task this season, then try and pile up some points from there to get top half.

This squad is a dire dogs breakfast spewed up by Brands, Koeman, Silva and Ancelotti.

We need a new type of player.

 

[Joey66]

John moss is stealing a living as a ref. The guy is useless.

As soon as i heard he was the VAR ref was John Moss I knew every VAR decision would go against us- Thick had a chance to score when fouled on the pen .....
As for the sending of the spurs player turned his back on the Holgate challenge - Holgate got the ball he stood n the way imo......
He soon came back on super fit .....
Two awful VAR decisions endorsed by a poor refferee

 

[spectateur]

We really need to start driving a media agenda against certain referees, make it abundantly clear that Kavanaugh Moss Atkinson Probert Mason and Oliver aren’t welcome at Goodison due to their overt kopite bias and dreadful standard of refereeing they’ve displayed.

It won't work. The media hate us

 

[BlueStevie35]

Deserved at least a point, solid defensively but a bit light up top. I dare say the pen doesn’t get overturned if it’s at Anfield, Old Trafford or, hell, at Tottenham, they should have looked at the Romero incident as well. Holgate was utterly brain dead not dropping his foot down after the clearance as well, no complaints with that

 

[J'aime Les Bleus]

On the plus side we didnt get beat, but it is only 1 point and keeps us in the bottom half. Next games are:-

Man City a
Brentford a
Liverpool h
Arsenal h
Palace a
Chelsea a
Leicester h

Don`t think we are getting much from them TBH unless we can get everyone back then we got Burnley a and Newcastle h before the window even opens.

Even if we can pick up 2 or 3 wins we will get to January with 6/7 wins in 20 games and approx 24 points, that is near on relegation form. Need some real money spent in January, oh wait......

12 points, easy.

 

[Papa Shango]

But Richarlison DIDN'T leave his foot in, he shoulder barged Romero and Romero tried to make out that he'd kicked him. Have another look.

He steps on him when he is down on the floor.

I don't think it's a booking or even a foul. It's just something that happens, body parts have to go somewhere. What's Holgate supposed to do, retract his legs after he kicks the ball?

 

[KMC]

Gary Stevens is the worst analyst. Tried to argue it wasn’t a pen because Richarlison got up quickly. My god.

Agreed. That comment was embarrassing. He and Zamora are probably the worst "pundit" tandem I've seen on Astro.

 

[JMT]

Harry Kane is FINISHED, That guy is worth about 25m.

 

[ForeverEverton]

If nothing that puts all the Holgate in CM shouts to bed, absolutely embarrassing thinking he can play in there when he gets caught on the ball at CB.....
