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

[UltraVires]

Just heard their managers post match interview and he seemed to think the referee was bad and gave us too much. Not sure what game he watched but maybe all the praise so far this season has made him delusional and think he’s entitled to everything against the PL’s “small” clubs…

We lack real pace on the flanks. We would be turning these draws into wins. Cant fault most of the players today though. Put a good shift in.

Our wingers are the goal threat though.

 

[T LEAFE]

Why can't we pass simple balls to each other?
We look so awkward.

Wait when did Mason move to Sheff U?

mason holgate played 5 league games for southampton

5-0 debut defeat to sunderland - he lasted 64 minutes
2-1 defeat to Middlesbrough - he lasted 45 minutes
1-0 win against Stoke - he came off the bench in the 93rd minute
2-2 draw with Preston - played full game
2-1 win against West Brom - played full game

he hasn't played a league game for southampton since that win against west brom on 11th November 2023, almost 3 months ago

he was probably fed up at southampton and demanded to come back so we tried to see if we could find another loan for him in january and sheffield united were interested

think we initially wanted a fee which put sheffield united off but i guess we must have given in on deadline day and said to them fine no fee just take him off our hands for the rest of the season

The point I'm making is that if we lose, I wouldn't be surprised given the team that they are. Yes, we could cause an upset and I'm optimistic that we do, but if we lose, its still to a very good team ( and I really hate Spurs but they are a top team)

I always sort of liked them. Hoddle days and it always seemed a good game against them.

Did we play well? Missed the whole game.

the score reflected the product. spurs passing was nice. we looked all over the place with our passing. cringeworthy at times. each time we had a corner kick you could tell spurs were on their heels. you felt it coming....

 

[witchdoc187]

Decent performance against decent team. Need to do more in final third as we're very weak. But good set pieces and well deserved point

Would have been disappointed not to take a point at least. Toothless in attack again but a decent performance

 

[Cameron Manning]

DCL really nearly scored like...

I thought it was 99.5% Dominic’s goal and 0.5% Harrison’s, Everton should give Dominic the goal on their records books.

I thought Gana Gueye (MOTM), Garner, as well as Young & Godfrey (particularly their link-up play, which seemed pretty decent) played well today. We conceded in those split moments we fell asleep and didn't exactly deserve a win, but it's a fantastic point against a very well drilled outfit.

 

[ForestBlue]

I really enjoyed the game today which is probably more of a sign of the dross we've been served up too often this season. I late late Everton goal always helps though!

I've gone for Gana Gueye a MOTM today as he annoyed the hell out of Madison for large parts of the game and kept him pretty quiet really.

 

[Toffeeforme]

Think the Spurs team are well overrated. Thought Beto should have been given longer.

He covered the back line really well I thought. Slowly beginning to think that Gana Gueye partnering with Garner may be the best midfield partnership going forward, seems more effective than Garner alongside Onana.

 

[Bob Latchford]

Our goals are checked and then triple checked

You can’t triple stamp a double stamp

 

[Dario Terracotta]

Proud of them today,Gueye gave a performance reminiscent of his first spell here, remarkable given his age and only recently getting back from Africa,Young's best performance so far in a Blue shirt too, couldn't knock any of them really,poorish first goal we gave away although richarlison took it ever so well,second one out of nothing,although I'd like to see it again as I'm sure there was a foul on Gueye in the build up,Oliver just being Oliver as usual,a little snapshot a spurs player kicks the ball away after a free kick,Oliver immediately turns his back so he doesn't have to book him, absolute beaut he is
