Everton v West Ham. 1st March at 15.00.

[GreenTeddy]

Had to go out 10 mins into the 2nd half.. How did Lukaku and McGeady play when they were on lids?

 

[Titus Bramble]

We wernt crap, we dominated possession and all attacking stats. Yes we huffed and puffed but we were playing a team with the most clean sheets in the league this season ( I think) and were on a 4 game winning run. It was never going to be easy but we did what we have to do and our injured players are all coming back to fitness. This month could be a very good one.

 

[Fuleco]

We'll done Everton.

Strikers are a good thing.

 

[degreeinblue]

If Liverpool lose today providing we beat Palace it's 5 points, what's the point in not being optimistic?

 

[Eric Djemba-Djemba]

McCarthy MOTM for me today. We've got a superb player on our hands here. Just wish he would bag a few.

 

[wandyr79]

More adventurous and looked more dangerous in the 2nd half, obviously a good team talk at half time.

Shows what a striker can do though, we really need to get somebody decent in over the summer.

 

[Roztitute]

I just say what I see mate: a team getting back to full heath with winnable games in the pipeline.

4th is gone like, but I'd love to see us get 5th secured, which would be a massive effort in our first season playing football again.

Nice one, liking the optimism.

Bring on Arsenal.

 

[cjohno]

wasnt the best performance pretty similar to some but at least we won 1-0 and not lost 1-0 . i thought mcarthy was very good and i think stones is going to be top class hes so compossed for his age, makes the odd misjudgement but not easy for a 19 year old centre backin the prem more experience and hes going to be class, looking good for the future with mcarthy stones and barkley , would be awesome if we could sign lukaku a real good spine in the future, provided we dont flog them lol come on southampton

 

[TyphooToffee]

Just for the hell of it....

 

[chicoazul]

Its weird that some blues revel in us not doing too well.

Actually when I said 'weird' I really meant 'tiring'.

 

[bluestevon]

Three more wins in the league on the spin (very doable) and we are back in this with a bang.

COYBs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Think a LOT rides on the cup game, we knock arsenal out their i can see us pushing on really strongly, maybe as importantly i can see them having a major collapse, with that being our 4th game in our 'easy' run could be a massive game if that scenrario enfolds, seriously think arsenal are fragile out of the top 4 for a major loss of form and dropping back into a 4th place battle with us and spurs

 

[bluestevon]

I think the point of my rant have been lost.

I'm made up we won

But we played crap and that needs to be addressed.

Crap is how spurs played vs us, crap is how chelsea played vs us mate, both games we lost, i will take 'playing crap' if it keeps getting the wins whilst the opponent hardly having the ball and not creating anything against us

 

[banno]

I'm never unhappy how we win. Sure, I like nice football, and much prefer it. Just don't care how we win as long as we win.

We were great against Sunderland with ten men, but I was still miserable after the game, and I was fist-pumping today at the final whistle.

I understand. Bet you buzz more off a deserved win with style than a defensive performance. I suppose thats what I should have said in the first place....more of a buzz.

 

[Royal Blue Jersey]

Baines, McCarthy, Naismith, Osman very impressive.
Subs great. Touh game. Well done blues

 

[andy4efc]

THAT BE WHY HE SHOULD HAVE STARTED

He had a chest infection. Looks like Bobby made the right decision.

Had to stay at home due to illness myself today though, Dads not long just rang me saying my dads mates car has had his back window smashed in during the game. Pathetic.
