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

[Wat Tyler]

 

[Toffe3m4n]

There's deffo a fight in them under Dyche which wasn't quite there with Lampard. Just a real shame that we have one of the worst XI's quality wise in the league this season..

 

[IrishBlue2022]

Great effort from the players tonight. That and the chelsea comeback to gain a point could be vital at the end of the season.

 

[Rob17896]

He literally conceded a penalty from a clunky tackle in his own box, you can't get any more low block than that.

He's bad because he's bad, he can only be okay in a low block. Had his utter fluke of a shot not gone in this would be a loss that's at least partially his fault.

Cant agree but there we go. Anyway, three of four below us are not winning that game in hand so good point. Dyche has transformed the mentality of the side. Have a good night mate!

Can't vote in the MotM Poll:

Both Doucoure and Keane cancelled out their good with their bad

 

[Bilbo]

Stats - 15 shots to 8, 6 to 2 on target, in favour of Everton.

Got to give it to the boys - that's a cracking effort.

 

[PhilRegan]

As great as that point was. What a crap team spurs are. I think with simms on from the start holding the ball up a bit more , we win that.

 

[Mashtray]

Given we were a goal and a man down for 30+ minutes, that's a very decent point. Given how tight it is - that results pings us up to 15th - even draws are really valuable, and another late equaliser (just like at Chelsea) will help keep our heads from dropping. UTFT.

Absolutely what we deserve

Unbeaten run continues

 

[PeregrineT]

Stunning goal, a couple horrible mistakes, and all is said and done we feel we should have won. A world of difference a decent manager makes.

Its definitely not pretty at times (much prettier than Lampard), but this team has as much fight in it right now as the fans did at the end of last season. You know the teams around us are hating this right now.

 

[JammyP]

At last, a striker!

 

[kenada_blue]

And I bet VAR looked at it 20 times just to try and overturn it

 

[andy4efc]

It’s a scrap. You’re scrapping. Staying up.

It is a scrap yeah, i think we are very lucky that there are so many poor teams, or at least underperforming teams this season.

Everyone's scrapping and 2 points from Chelsea/Spurs isn't a bad return, but the teams who are able to put some goals in in key games are the ones who will stay up.

Just desperately hoping we can convert some chances in the next few games and keep chipping away at the points tally.

 

[Paul Rideout]

A very fair point but some, like West Ham, Palace, Wolves perhaps do have some fast quality attackers who are underperforming.

Same issue we've had all this season for us unfortunately. Doucoure shafted us massively there as we were so comfortable.

I don't fear him missing though - Maybe iwobi in the middle, gray out wide and simms up front? or maybe Garner in straight swap?

 

[knowing your history]

Great effort from the team and manager in last 20 minutes.

Whatever happens in next two months there's pride back on the pitch at least.

 

[Bwana]

YYYYEEESSSSS!!!!!. I just knew we had a chance when the Spuds went down to 10!.

That's the thing. We were set up for equaliser, they didn't know what to do and got lasagna in their pants again.
