Nice win to start the weekend matches.
Easy peasy. Midfield was great. Subs all contributed handsomely.
Dyche is a massive wet wipe.
Surprisingly a very competent Pawson officiating the game today.
Some people really are deluded. I donât know who Jeff Sax is, but I donât think theyâve realised that we were effectively cheated out of 5 points so far, and arguably another 2.
TNT Sports making a big deal about the handball. Arm out, and stays out.
Had it been the other way round, it would be a one small comment of, yess itâs a pen, and talk point over.
Are we saying that isnât a pen now? Jesus ChristâŠ.
Crouchy said it was a clear pen tbfâŠthe others are mancs and Jags so that would explain that.
We arenât. Some ex Evertonians are.
I genuinely thought that was a textbook handball. Happy to be corrected by our resident referees.
Konaté on the other hand I did think should be off, but @Limiescouse @Sportbilly1966 ?
The DVD is in the Everton shop already.
Itâs titled, â The Great Moral Victoryâ
Starring - Sean Dyche as âThe Whinging Twatâ.
Not the greatest spectacle, not our best display. But we won and thatâs what matters.
I donât know what happened there. We just didnât manage to score as freely as I had predicted. Perhaps our strike force is adverse to rain?
Even so 2-0 will do, itâs almost the same in fact as long as at the end of the season we donât lose out due to goal difference.
Anyway Nunez changes us imo just up for it all the time stretching defenses âŠ
That was a clear penalty. Arm extended and moving towards the ball.
I wrote this in the pre-match thread.
Ashley Young kicked the ball away when on a yellow, so his second yellow on Diaz was his third flare up point.
He had his warning with the kicking the ball away. Konate was foolish, and had he stayedon the field, any foul would bring out the second yellow.
clean-sheet
Was a clear handball, I donât know why anyone is arguing against it.
Young should have been off for kicking the ball away.
No way Konateâs was a second yellow. It was barely a foul.
