Norwich City v Everton. 12th Dec at 1245.

Think we miss Jags more than first thought..

Biggest regret about today will be the 45 minute master class from tom cleverly, will go un noticed. Really enjoyed his passing,work rate, and movement, highlight of the day for me.

I thought he looked tired second half, which is understandable, gave the ball away a bit. I agree he had an impressive first half, though.

Can Barkley and Del play in the same team? Since Del came back Ross doesn't really seem to be trying to impose himself on games. He just strolls around playing easy passes, giving it away in dangerous areas and losing his man at corners. The corner situation is getting ridiculous now. Set piece goals scored/conceded can have massive impact on league position and out ineptness at both ends of the field has probably cost us at least 10 points already this season just on the defensive side of things let alone never scoring from them.

 

[Carlito]

And to be fair we should have been today.

Yep, the chances came in that first half. There just aren't enough goalscorers in the team, and that asks an awful lot of Lukaku.

No mate as those players never once played together in the same west ham side, nice try though

Granted but most of them were knocking about in the same five year era. They also had mascherano, carrick and defoe around the same time. Team was disassembled due to poor results and bad management.

The same will happen here without improved results. In fact, it may well be in our best interest to cash in on the players and try and get this new stadium with the funds. If we are going to draw most games we may as well have an average side.

Could well be, but I don't think he'd improve our defending at corners to be fair.

.....good coaching will improve our defending at corners.

You mean much in the same way that Liverpool have cashed in on Suarez, Mascherano, Alonso, Arbeloa, Torres, Sterling etc?

Rather than say the way United kept hold of all their talented young players and built a tremendous team around them that destroyed all Liverpools domestic records much to our amusement?

Mate, we won't have a say with these results.

 

[Toffeemeister]

Pathetic and unacceptable, and so horribly predictable. 3 draws against Bouremouth, Norwich, and Palace. Martinez underperforming here I'm afraid.

This. if you can't beat these teams you are in trouble.

Of course we won't, i'm still gutted at how we lost Stones during last summer myself mate

 

[Toast]

We could be first on motd though..

Yes, and needs to be done as soon as!

 

[gianthogweed]

This is a great Everton team playing excellent football ! at the moment they just ain't getting the results they deserve

 

[Toffeemeister]

Not going to let this ruin my Saturday like the Bournemouth result did. We wax lyrical about the quality we have but we'll go nowhere if we can't man up and defend bloody set pieces. 3 points from Bournemouth, Palace and Norwich doesn't make particularly good reading like.

Spot on mate sadly.
