We were crap in the first half mate.

I hope Rafael does well but we need to admit what doesn’t work and that first half was aids.

Honestly thought we were alright - first 20 minutes was decent then one of the usual mental midgets in the squad gifts them a goal and heads instantly dropped.

The key isn't changing manager its over time getting rid of the same mental midgets who make those unforced errors time after time.
 
Most entertaining football since Moyes - direct, quick, aggressive, effort everything we have lacked for years - great result and the manager & players deserve the plaudits.

NEA thats how Everton play none of this 500 passes sideways and back that the futbol hipsters in the fanbase crave that see's us in the bottom 3

Time for the Cult to drop their weapons, stand down and give time to the Rafatollah to rebuild this squad.
 
Do think should have switched gray an rich earlier but was good seeing a more direct everton today esp the rubbish at home last season
 

I’m pleased. Finally we had a manager that emphasise on counter, and it’s definitely not brainless hoof or percentage football. It is counter attacking football with tenacity, pressing and moving the ball up the field quickly with the quality we had upfront. We can be a devastating force when it comes to counter because we have suitable players to make it work. and now a manager to properly implement it.

this is the easiest and most effective style for a squad like us.

Rafael finished mid table with a Newcastle team that lacks talent upfront. I have a feeling he can scale higher with the likes of richarlison n dcl.
 
Did Everton do a secret deal to buy 100m quids worth of bottle, fight, fitness, speed, agility with a sack of "passing it forwards powder" thrown in? Or is it Rafael's training regime, and his man to man way of dealing with players?

Everton don't come back from behind like other teams do, but they did today.
Best all round team display for many a year. That would never in a million years have been turned around in such a devastating way under Ancelotti as it was today.

The players and manager oozed Everton spirit today. Excellent to see.

Martinez first season was the best football we have played in the Prem era. The team still had the Moyes discipline but with the added freedom
 
I don't want to get all bogged down with the manager but if he is drilling into the team to play it forward quickly (not necessarily a hit and hope over the top - although that has a time and place too) then that is surely a good sign?
