Joel Robles. Before ya jump on me, i'm not criticizing directly as I thought he did well in particular looking for quicker distribution and shouting direction and criticism at the defence. But he did have one straight forward catch to take which he decided to double punch, it didn't go far and put us under pressure. The man i'm aiming the direct critisism is Bergara, the Keeper coach, is it him that instills this punching idea when a catch would be far better option? Thought Oviedo was excellent and a much better defender than Baines, but Baines offers more going forward, which do we want right now? On last night i'd go with Oviedo. Lennon MOTM for me though Barkley a close second.
{Ed025's Note - most if not all keepers are advised to punch rather than catch howie, it seems the new thing with them..

Silly really, always catch in my days. Do that and it breeds confidence in you and your defence.

One other thing about keepers, is about the gloves they wear nowadays, how ya catch with them I haven't a clue. I never wore gloves for years, because I could feel the ball better. Only changed when my coach insisted I had to wear them. What I wore though were very thin, so I got some feel of the ball, but it was never as good as none.

What sort of gloves you talking about Howie? I prefer going bare back myself also ðŸ˜.

Those of you that weren't there last night, that is the Everton supporters you can hear getting behind their Team, playing like a Moyes Team of old. If Roberto reads this stuff then Roberto that is all we ask, to see our Team actually defending a lead and fight. One other thing Roberto WTF do you see in Kone.

The only thing is dunc when a looked at there players attitude they were no were near up for it and didn't really test our back four although I thought we dealt with what they had to throw at us quite well I would have been embarrassed being a Geordie last night not because I will have probably had the worse hair do in the country more that we're awful. I like mori my only problem is he needs to be a bit calmer at times he is a bit rash but the similarities between him and jags are so alike that I think he will improve 10 fold playing along side him.
