Best performance of the season, we were good value for the win, always looked the most likely to break the deadlock. I thought Gana was immense today.

I think he has been the best central midfielder for most of the season and well deserves another season here.

Felt we were always in control of the game, the ref causing us more problems than the Forest players, like the previous games though it felt like a couple of tweaks/ timely subs could have had us more comfortable, MOTM Gana, closely followed by JOB

 

[Bob Latchford]

Did well away to a good team who don’t really set out to dominate possession and that certainly helped.

A brilliant 3 points in what has been a demented season.

Forest unable to find a break through. Everton claimed a smash and grab victory in the Midlands to leave Forest shellshocked
The BBC article from the game. Reading it you would swear it was like the rs win in Paris a few weeks ago ffs

After the game, I was watching the north West news on BBC, they reported we had lost 1-0 to Nottingham Forest.

Forest are having a Leicester-type season. I've got a feeling this is the beginning of the end for them.

Like us under Martinez and hopefully Liverpool under Slot

And to be fair, we’ve held our own really well this season against the RS. Myko in particular has all but silenced Salah.

Didn't see the game cause I was travelling and had to put up with the dross spouted by talksport. Did we have 2 good shouts for pens. Jemain Jenas was talking crap as usual. Delighted with the result.

 

[Toffeelover]

A win, An away win, oh boy, 3 points all thanks to you know who.

I went and had a large glass of wine to celebrate.

Surely now safe.

Even the PL app talks more about the effect today’s loss had on Forest than our improved form. Tired of it.

Only saw it on highlights but didn't look like pens to me.

 

[MaximusEvertonius]

The one thing the ref did get right all match was nothing on either side today was pen worthy imo.

Well they're 3rd in the league and we're 14th, so there isn't really a narrative around us at the moment.

 

[Toffeelover]

Wish we had a Pickering or Latchford or Ferguson up front.

 

[Dwight K Schrute]

Wish we had a Pickering or Latchford or Ferguson up front.

We'd still have old rubber shins Doucoure miscontrolling everything around them and Harrison shanking everything away from them or over their heads.
