Match Thread Everton vs Brentford - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll.

[Pittsburgh Footy]

Went McNeil not only b/c of the finish but thought he was very good overall. Really good defensively as well

The whole back line was very good. Dare I say Keane looks like a proper footballer again under Dyche?

Dodged another bullet with wastefulness again though. Need to finish the chances we get. We should have had 3 in the first half

My motm was Michael Keane. Always in the right spot today and didn’t put a foot wrong. Glad to see he can slot in and still do a job for us

Massive... phew

 

[Milkman]

I wager there'll be a run on adult diapers among us Evertonians if the rest of the season plays out like this. I can't believe we held on for 94 minutes. Though by what I've read on here we should have been out of sight by halftime. Still, I've never felt more like singing the Blues.....

Might start selling adult nappies on Goodison Rd before kick off

 

[Tylard]

McNeil was in the right spot a bunch of times today, not just the goal. I still don't rate him but he's my MOTM.

 

[Bkk Andy]

It’s [Poor language removed] criminal that if you watch the Chelsea Leicester highlights that they don’t give Leicester a penalty for a handball but they rule out Grays goal for handball. Compare the two instances and tell me corruption isn’t going on with var

Bad decisions don't have to mean corruption.

We just have to hope we're there or there abouts after the next three games. If we're in the relegation zone and only 1-2 points off safety I think it'll be a miracle. The next three games if we play like we did today we'll get absolutely buttflucked.

Not the way we played in the 1st half. Should have been out of sight. 2nd half our bench just isn't good enough to freshen the game up

 

[Tommy Chong]

Every game is going to be like this. We have to grind it out.
We obviously can't rely on anyone else to ease our passage.

It's going to be tough... There's no room for any errors, we've got to keep it tighter than a [insert the sexual innuendo of your preferred choice here].

And with a little bit of luck and hard work...

 

[blueloon]

Phew I’m just exhausted from that, this is going to be a long , long, kick every ball season. Gave MoM to McNeil a goal and a goal line clearance, but I thought Gana had one of his best games this season.

 

[cooperman]

We played the ball through the middle and it created some chances.

We pressed well and forced a few errors which could've come off

Fans are back on board and the players know it

Should've been out of sight at half time.

So many positives from this game. We've come a long way. Dyche is clearly a good coach

 

[allen]

Sorry where’s the evidence that we are capable of stringing results together ?

Like I say, I know you're on a wind-up, and I'm going to enjoy an Everton win instead.

Three more points towards safety.

 

[Colonel Getafe]

What does Dyche say to McNeill to turn him into McMessi?

"Just do your thing, son. Don't worry about making mistakes. Worst case scenario, if it all goes pete tong we both rock up at West Ham next season anyway."

 

[Bob Latchford]

Has anyone had any server errors today?

Not me

 

[davek]

Didn't Toney say he'd put us away with his extra motivation?

Corrupt bellend.

 

[alel]

To protect my mental health I just check the scores at half time and full time image my confusion when I checked at 4.50 and we were at 98 minutes
