Man Utd v Everton. 10th Feb @ 16.00.

A lot of sense there, Joe

 

[moosed]

I think that's 2 spoonfuls of reality in your tea tonight for alot of you.

We're not CL quality. And I pray we don't reach them because we were raped by the likes of Benfica in the Europa a couple seasons ago, imagine Bayern, Barca, Madrid and the likes.

lol i've also thought this a few times, do i really want us to get humiliated by them and have people taking the piss ?

shocking attitude to have though

 

[somuchfun]

this, more worrying is that was pretty much our full strength side..sigh

Well, their two goals were because of players on field because of injuries to our first eleven. And well, Anichebe isn't who you start at OT anyway. And MoyLEz got his tactics wrong a bit with Chebes and unlucky with Distin getting injured in warm up.

 

[Big_nev]

calm down boys, did anyone really expect 3 points here today?

No but I expected us to pressure them out of second gear and show a bit of fight. Like I said earlier worse teams than us have gone to Old Trafford and had a go.

 

[kenada_blue]

One shot on goal sums it up.

But hey... Club's will drop points, we didn't need players in january blah blah blah.

 

[toffee-bhoy]

He's garbage as a player but he has a bit of heart and a bit of fight...doesn't give up and chases lost causes....if more did the same it gives the good players a platform to build from.

i agree with the effort been made is a starting point for every player but when you bring on a "forward" thinking player you expect more thn just running around .....

twice he just fell over at the sniff of an opposing player

 

[Norwegian Cow]

The two off the bench made zero impact.

not entirely true. Jelavic had a shot on goal which was saved and went to corner, he also should have been clear on goal, but the linesman wrongly waved for offside

 

[collymcd]

He is so called because he is our manager.

I love when people do the smarmy quotation fingers and make a tit of themselves. I suppose you call this a "football match" ay?

 

[TyphooToffee]

calm down boys, did anyone really expect 3 points here today?

Yes, I did, but when Distin got injured it was a BIG blow

 

[chrismanduk]

didnt we beat them this season, didnt we draw them at old trafford last season and was the cause for City to get back into it.

yep and we did ok today.I'm not having a go at the blues.Just fed up listening to all the gush spouted by the pundits about united.They played 11 behind the ball at home despite spending millions.
Fact still remains man u win titles cos they spend more than most apart from 2 very very badly run clubs.

[Saint Domingo]

Made them look better than they actually were.
Heitinga is the biggest ****house to ever wear the Everton shirt.
Phil Neville and Osman NEED to retire for Everton FC to push on.

Why have a go at Phil Neville? Probably one of our better players on the day. What did Saint Leighton do today hey? We all know what he can do yet as usual he choked in a big game ala against Downing in the semi final. Didn't put one good ball in all game, got done countless times defensively, and just generally looked like a school boy wanting to go home. Watch Cole v Barcelona last season and you'll see why he's still playing for England. He can defend. Neville, Fellaini and Jelavic were the only ones in our team that didn't look like they were embarassed to be sharing a pitch with the Mancs. The rest just succumbed to the usual inferiority complex we get most of the itme we visit Old Trafford or Anfield.

 

[wandyr79]

Didn't play awful, just the better team won and defended brilliantly. Any opportunity to get the ball in the box was closed down and when we did they had bodies there to not only thwart but to pounce on any ricochet or bounce.

Naismith is exactly the same as Pienaar but actually has goals in him.

 

[toffee-bhoy]

Can't wait Neville's rallying cry in the week.

lmfao ......exactly
