Whatever happens over the next 45 I'm really proud of the Everton team of the last week. Something I haven't been able to say for a while

Holgate MOTM so far.

Going on about that goal STILL?

Neville is slowly transitioning to his "this team lack character" speech. Another Everton goal and he'll be on about knotweed, or some other infestation.

I don't see how it was a foul. They both went for the same ball and made contact with each other. A forward is not allowed to make contact with a goal keeper who runs into him? How would that work? It was not an intentional attempt to foul the GK, and the ball flew past both of them anyway. It's a pain that every single goal now has to go to VAR just on the off chance that there might be something in the replay that will get the goal ruled out...

It wasn't remotely a foul. DCL was jumping on a line straight at goal. De Gea wasn't on that line until he jumped into it, after DCL was already in the air. If it had been the other way around, nothing would have been given and it wouldn't have even been mentioned at HT.

In case you didn't notice, the media aren't our biggest fans.

Indeed.

I don’t think the United player even protested......it is the TV people making a big deal of it

Especially cryin' arse Souness...

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Schmeichel would of won the ball and flattened both DCL and Mina, DeGea jumped like he didnt care

When you watch it again De gea actually craps himself and turns away.

Jordan always makes me nervous on crosses

 

[Gwlacticos]

Neville still going on about the goal saying the players should have surrounded the ref. Unbelievable biased commentary as usual. Makes it even better. Please win this Everton.

Poor old OGS. Just lucky he hasn’t got a squad full of injuries, sickness and had one of the best players in his side last under 15 mins
