Ed do you think that Neville is becoming a liability on the pitch I think he's a great leader but he doesn't produce the football were capable of, though gibson and pienaar were outstanding, jelavic didn't get enough time on the pitch to be judged by anybody but he seems strong. What do you think ed? Dan {Ed025's Note - phil has been a great player for us..but i dont think he should start games unless we have injuries, i think we have seen the best of him dan...thats just my opinion mate..

Believable3 Unbelievable1

Phill is a good leader but his time has come, keep him at efc if poss, imo gibson was poor today, i think he maybe getting too excited... tryin to show too much a lot of his passin to day was sh*t to be honest, we played poor and drawed.... get in the stands an roaw the boys on at home we will win

Agree0 Disagree0

Neville - great captain but our squad is strong enough now to go without him unless we really need someone. I was disappointed with that substitution by moyes but did well to get back after a shocking goal against.

Gibson needs some more game time - i dont know what everyone else thinks but he's so used to having to impress when he actually gets a game (for united) that maybe he pushes too much with his passing. But we'll see, in time i think he'll come a good midfielder.

Fellaini - How good has he been?! Lets see him tear up that Chelsea midfield

Howard,
Hibbert Heitinga Distin Baines
Donovan(Drenthe) Rodwell Fellaini Pienaar
Cahill (Anichebe)
Staq (Jelavic)

C'MON BLUES WE ARE EVERTON!! THE PPLS CLUB, us pll should ROAR them on {Ed025's Note - its a 2 way street for me mate...when the crowd roar, and the team are,nt lifted, it goes dead!,..its also up to the manager and players to inspire the crowd..

Agree0 Disagree0

Agree0 Disagree0

Hiya ed... Just watched Arsenal v Blackburn game, I know Van Persie is the man for them, but every time i watch Arsenal, for me Arteta is the man who makes them tick, he is top class..... he went stale at us and the move to Arsenal has done him good.
Gutted his form went away for 18 months with us and i put that down to the way Moyes sets his teams up (defend first, attack later) this scuppered Arteta's main qualities and that's why his form suffered, he is now playing in a positive side that goes at teams and it's no suprise he looks back to his brilliant best, how we miss him !! {Ed025's Note - i loved the guy mate...him doing well at the arse...is down to their pass and move style, which suits him, but now we have to move on, and with our new additions in midfield, lets hope that we start to play some good attacking football..

Believable3 Unbelievable0

Arteta is a good player but 4 everton if u look ova the past 2-3 years our best runs were without him, we missed peanuts well more, dont get me wrong when moyes okayed him on the left wing he was class.... or is it that who ever baines pkayes with, they excell?

Believable2 Unbelievable0

STOP PANICKING FFS!!! GET A GRIP WILL YOU! WE ALL WANT MORE SUCCESS BUT WE HAVE BEEN THROUGH FAR FAR WORSE!! JUST LAY OFF! {Ed025's Note - calm down mate...today was a bit of a blip, but onwards and upwards..COYB..

Sorry you are taking the piss premiership kicks ass over Spanish league there are only 2 teams in your league that's why they are on tv every week more or less every game is different where as Barcelona can play the same game each week does not matter who they are playing against where as when top team goes to places like stoke you have to grind out results {Ed025's Note - i totally agree mate..

OH GOD HERE I GO dennis has stamina and can run all day ...but hes crap...we all no hes crap....we patronise him...its a piss take..hes mike lyons up front all balls no skill..we are settling for effort over skill..we need the best..not this donkey..av had me first look at the jelly fella today ...to be brutaly honest he looks like a waste of money poor first touch no pace,then i read moyse saying he looked at him when he played for rapid and thought nah not for me wat changed a load of goals in a mickey mouse league....you were right first time moyes...why did you change your mind....on a brighter note peanuts had a sound game hope we keep the lad perminent a top player..has anyone had a butchers at the reserves or the academy some top talent coming through forrester,hope,green,bidworth,garbutt,among others someone doin a fine job behind the scenes keep up the good work ,also hope the reason mark cuban was at the man city game is coz he wants to buy us............hes loaded....and a flash c.nt...fit in well then.....c.o.y.b............T.T.TANK.E {Ed025's Note - well you really cheered me up ...not!...just kidding..have a bit of faith mate, the new guys will come good...jellyman is a really good signing, but you will have to give him more than 45 minutes to bed in!, denis is a bit agricultural i agree, but can still be a good target man, if used in the correct formation..

Believable5 Unbelievable3

Je;;y got 30 min in a new team, he had flu all week so lets be honest never gona lok his best is he, an i thought he done ok, you can see he more mobile that straq only thing i would say is he should have hit it 1st time rather than dumy, get behind the tem, scream and shout in the stands, we are everton we are blue our team WILL GIVE US PASSION IF WE ROAR I MEAM ROAR THEM ON together, imagine 40000 ppl roaring you on, regardless what your doing u WILL go that extra mile this is OUR CLUB lets show how much we love and back them {Ed025's Note - good post mate..

04 Feb 2012 19:11:44
WHY do we av to wait till we are chaseing the game to play 442, we look better, we score, and we always look the more likely winners with that formation. This is not the opinion of one mug [ although i have been watching us since 1963 ] this is the main stream view of the majority of supporters. .... but what do we know, we just pay the wages ! {Ed025's Note - there is only one man to blame for that....david moyes!..

Its not a coinsedense we score in last 10 mins when negative arse converts to2 up front

Well not the best today v wigan, but il take a cup win, beating city, 2 new players and a draw away in one week anyday.
Thought Pienaar and Baines showed flashes of doing well for the rest of the season though.
Thought the decision to bring Neville on for Cahill was the wrong one.
The players looked tired from tuesday especially Straq, Gibson and Cahill but at least we didnt lose and our unbeaten run goes on, full week to recover now and apparently Coleman and Rodwell should be back next week aswell.

Totally agree cahill for neville lost us 3 points

Agree0 Disagree0

04 Feb 2012 17:38:28
Evening ED, I am not gonna go mental after 1 week of us being on cloud nine, but it does beggar belief on moyes negative tactics. cahill comes off, the last person you want to see as his replacement is phil neville, what was that about, so he then pushed fellani up instead of bringing on jellyman , then he brings strac off and jellyman on, so its still 1 up front, my god moyes you certainly dont like to win games by attacking football, moyes definately cost us winning this game, he sets up not to lose instead of attacking for wins against the poorer sides....when cahill went off their should of been no other player coming on apart from jelavic, unbelievable..your thoughts please ED

BATTO EFC {Ed025's Note - i agree with you batto....i just hope this was a blip, and that next week we play an attacking formation, we have all been banging on about how negative we have been this season, but after the events of tuesday, i thought we had turned the corner, his mood seemed a lot better midweek, but it seems the cloud may have returned. now that we have a better quality squad, there is no excuse for playing boring negative football, but i am prepared to give him the benefit of the doubt for today, as there were a few team changes, and the pitch was awful. but i will be angry if we dont improve our standard of football..

Believable1 Unbelievable0

04 Feb 2012 18:11:30
Sorry but what was moyes doing. He brings of tim cahill for neville, why cant he bring on jelavic and play 442 aaaarrrrggghhh sometimes moyes and his tactics #$%^ me off

poor result against a poor wigan team. i feel that the great win against city is all for nothing because we have dropped so many points against these lower sides this season especially at home.

Believable1 Unbelievable1

04 Feb 2012 17:49:09
we didnt play as well as people expected after tuesday night but wigan were fighting for a win also, anyway if we would have drawn with city and beat wigan (4 points) we would all be happy, well done vic, saved us again. lets just kick on and get behind the team for the chelsea game.

Believable3 Unbelievable0

04 Feb 2012 17:37:57
how how how can we be playin like that with the players we have! i reckon we have as good a squad as spurs or very close and the football is shocking please some1 y r we so terrible to watch

Believable2 Unbelievable3

04 Feb 2012 17:19:56
Ed I'm not very happy with the performance and the result today. I've backed Moyes since he has been here but this seasons games have been dreadful and boring.I feel we need a new change in direction. Don Blueboy. {Ed025's Note - i was hoping we had turned the corner don..lets look at this as a blip, and hope we kick on again next week..

Believable1 Unbelievable0

Sorry but if u were a foreigner watching that you would be laughin ur head off if people said that the epl is the best in the world the spaniish league is much more exciting to watch by a million miles {Ed025's Note - to be fair... the spanish league is becoming a 2 horse race, the EPL is far better balanced..

Agree0 Disagree0

Ed i totally agree but for entertainment la liga is miles ahead maybe it is the warm weather gives players the feel good factor but if barca had played us or wigan they would ave scored about 20 goals and yes they would probably do that to most teams {Ed001's Note - personally I disagree about La Liga, most games are poor, now the Bundesliga is a top league. That is about the most exciting to watch right now.}

Agree0 Disagree0

04 Feb 2012 17:03:55
such a difference from tuesday night! we looked pretty good against top of the table but struggled against bottom! why? neville for cahill? very negative by moyes! should of bought jelavic on at that point! anichebe did it again for us! but we should be winning games like this we were lucky to draw! some of the play was better, pienaar played well! tough games coming up we have to start playing well for 90 mins!

Believable1 Unbelievable1

04 Feb 2012 17:02:07
O dear.... Tim tim tim tim tim, what are u doing, we should be battering teams like wigan....... lets just put it down to nasty weather...unbeaten in 4 now, 2 draws 2 wins better performance n/w please

04 Feb 2012 16:58:00
possibly the worst game of football i have ever had the displeasure to sit through moyes is brilliant at making a team defensive but offensively he has not got a clue sick of watching this awful football sometimes it is totally unbearable sorry but we need a change the man city game was a great defensive game but we so struggle to with going forard it is quite shocking considering the players we have please please bring in rodgers or lambert

Believable4 Unbelievable1

Its amazing isnt it!! F8cK me! everyone raving in the week wernt they, going on about how we are on the up. One draw later and its back in the duldrums again...and unbelievably questionning Moyes and the future! Unreal!! Get a grip will you.....we have been the victim of yet another bizarre goal dont know how many that is this season now! We can do better we know we can.

Agree0 Disagree0

Totally agree they don't know what there talking about if some one said you'll take 4 points from last 2 games I would take it they just think all of a sudden we can win every week teams are fighting for survival no easy games in this league my friend

Agree0 Disagree0

Exactly mate, I mean have you read the amount of abuse on Moyes here?!! what is everyones problem?! A fantastic night on Tuesday, great positivity and great feeling all week. We suffer another dodgy goal and now its Moyes out! What is wrong with everyone? what do you people want? we're not going to compete for Champs League just now are we?!? I agree a win today wouldve have really topped the week off and but for that goal we may have nicked one but STOP PANICKING!! as the above says 4 points from the last two games I would take that thanks! Get a grip, get real, take a breath before critising constantly....or go on a pathetic march to unsettle the club and plans they have. {Ed025's Note - i think you are over reacting mate...no one is calling for his head, but now that we have a better squad...we would like more attractive football, its not much to ask for..

Agree0 Disagree0

Fair enough Ed, but on a pitch that looks like it has horses up and down it??? Its always the same Wigan away....dodgy pitch, dodgy results. Im just saying getting sick of this knee jerk reaction all the time. I loved it on Tuesday and looking for more of the same against Chelsea.....we can play attractive football under Moyes, we have done before and will again but you cant just suddenly flick a switch and suddenly we are playing flowing football again after we have been trying to keep it tight with few options. patience is all I am saying and lay off Moyes and the board

Agree0 Disagree0

04 Feb 2012 16:36:13
what a disgraceful performance up to now, and tim howard you should be ashamed, an international keeper like him should not be f***ing up like that, theres a reason moyes shouldnt have changed the team, pienaar has played okay yeah but drenthe is explosive and distin hasnt looked his normal self should have kept it as it is the silly jock

Believable1 Unbelievable2

Drenthe give the ball away too much, i find my self screeming PASS THE F*** BALL, if i was in moyes shoes i would play peanuts b4 drethe all day mate

Agree0 Disagree0

Their goal hit a big lump of mud or a divet or something - went off at a weird angle - otherwise we'd have won

Agree0 Disagree0

We would ave but most certainly would not ave deserved it we have far better players than wigan we should be playin them off the park we r far to negative to state the obvious yes i do appreciate it was a stinking day weather wise but swansea and norwich had the same weather

Agree0 Disagree0

To the original Poster, get a grip mate.
