Newcastle 0 -Everton 1 : Review and MOTM poll, 26/12/2015

Just me that thought stones played well?

 

[Caolam]

I went for Coleman, thought he was involved throughout the game.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Barry for me, he seemed to be everywhere.

 

[LAToffee]

Barry for me, he seemed to be everywhere.

Yup. The leader we needed and a clever fouler.

This one made up for Bournemouth a bit.

Except we deserved to win both...when we get one we don't deserve....or about 12, we'll be even.

Unless you're saying that because of the poor refereeing decisions, I disagree. Newcastle did exactly what they wanted to do and created more dangerous chances than we did. I think a draw would have been a very fair result (not in terms of how things should have gone, but how the match actually played out) and we were lucky to get all three points.

Newcastle 0-1 Everton FT:

Shots: 10-20
Pass accuracy: 79%-89%
Chances created: 6-13
Possession: 44%-56%

I'd say based on that and my eyes we deserved all three points.

 

[TGW89]

Lord knows I have trashed the man like a garyed Keith Moon trashed hotels, but I've gone with Barry.

That's three decent games in a row know for the raven haired geriatric. Is there life in the ol' dog yet?

 

[Tubey]

Barry was sensational, but Lukaku was on another level for me. By far our most important overall player right now.

 

[Joey66]

Barry... Again

He was immense today - let Cleverly get forwards!

 

[Coffee and TV]

Gone with Cleverley just for the goal really but Barry was great again.

We routinely draw matches with those kinds of statistics, though.

 

[PhilM]

I've gone for Rom due to his work ethic, attitude and how he bossed them in the first half, but could have quite easily been Barry or Cleverley.

Right..in Everton world. In the real world that's deserving of three points. I keep hoping we'll start living in the real world instead of bizzaro, parallel universe Everton world.
