@evemccc look away now... I seen hitch hikers with lower arms than that

What’s Keane doing there.?

Whats Maddison doing?

 

[GreiginFife]

Shocking pen

T-Rex to the rescue again

Playing mind games ref should book him.

 

[Billysboots]

That was a shocking penalty. Could be the difference between staying up or not. Curious to know why Vardy didn’t take that - sure he used to be Leicester’s penalty taker.

 

[Lord Tyrion]

Playing mind games ref should book him.

Yup. As long as refs are consistent and book every keeper and player who do the same. They should, but they don't.

Thinking positive, more like it should be 3-3, we could scrape something from this but Dyche’s not got much to work with on the bench. Iwobi for Gray maybe. God we’re awful.

Thought Iwobi has played ok apart from that square ball .

made up for that!!

Football is stupid.

 

[Lord Tyrion]

Football is stupid.

We started the season with a strong defence. Now we look terrifying at the back. Maddison is just pulling us to bits. Has Coady insulted Dyche? Surely he is better than Keane?

 

[Lord Tyrion]

Everton's next 2 games, Brighton away, City home. We needed a win tonight .

Players gave it everything though, as did Leicester. Annoying the Iversson had a game like that .

 

[Jimaroid]

Entertaining game. So many missed opportunities for both teams. Both deserving to be where they are. I know there’s a numeric chance for us still but I think we’re gone.

Think it was one of those games where players were afraid of making mistakes.
They both looked very nervous.
entertaining for us ,but a nightmare for the clubs fans.

So when my lad(14yrs old) dived and gained a penalty, then bragged to me after the game he’d done it because he’d seen Ian Wright do it there was no correlation between how football managers and players behaved…?

As for this parent, he got a 1 match ban from me.

I expect kids to do what their idols on the pitch do, its human nature. Kids generally copy what they see and hear. It's upto the parents to educate there own children what is the right and wrong behaviour. Unfortunately there are parents who think and act differently. You took the correct action, well done.

Adults do not behave like Klopp, Gaurdiola,Moyes,Arteta etc just because they see them berating refs. They behave like they do because they behave the same way in everyday life.

Whilst entertaining it was a poor standard of football, no wonder theyre both in a relagation battle. Everton deserved a win for my money. Better chances created, just a shame Lewin couldnt convert his tap in.

Looking at the remaining fixtures, is that a point that keeps Everton up?

Southampton are done. Its 2 of 3 Everton,Leeds and Forest. Leicester have a better goal diff that could be worth an extra point.

Leeds are in freefall and Forest are just lacking that little bit of quality defensively. I think those 2 go down

So Leeds looking to sack Gracia and bring In Allardyce


And in regards Jota and the High boot
This is Gallaghers view

This was Dermot Gallagher on an identical incident

Imo - both endangered the opponent, both players can’t have their foot up that high without taking care and both should have prob been a red card

 

[Deleted member 29109]

If we appoint Allardyce. I hope we get relegated.
That crook should have no place in football.
12 months from Bielsa to fat Sam is some fall.

if you go down.... how do you see it going? will many players leave/want to stay ? Who in particular would you worry about?
