    Everton 23-24: You Lost The League at Goodison Park

    Thread title changed to reflect the chant in the stands at Goodison last night. Petty, sure, but in a truly dreadful season and decade, the result was shocking enough, but the performance even moreso. Everton played with joy, committment, grit... pick your superlative. The pessimism and...

    Matchday 34- where it feels like the end of the season is coming

    I am! 2-0 Toffees now, off a towering DCL header from a perfect McNeil back-post corner. Liverpool have been second best all night and seem disinterested. Goodison is rocking. Toffees are free and easy. Where has this club been all season? Live table has Everton eight points clear of the...

    Matchday 34- where it feels like the end of the season is coming

    After Everton have dominated, Branthwaite sneaks a dribbler that Allison gets 99% of. Calvert Lewin slides and pokes it to the back of the net but it's already over the line. 1-0 Everton at 28', Reds seem tight, Toffees are playing loose and carefree football.

    The stupid is especially astounding because it’s not as if Everton getting 3 points was great for Luton either

    Arsenal are up 1-0 at 27' and just swarming the Chelsea goal. Petrovic with several saves, including one of his face stopping a wicked deflection that was just being in the right (wrong?) place.

    Everton's options at right back are/have been, depending on health in any given week: -Seamus Coleman, for grit, guile, and leadership -Nathan Patterson, for bedding in the prospect -Ben Godfrey, lacking in nous and experience but extremely athletic -James Garner, a midfielder by trade but a...

    So Mr Young has a quick wit, at least Really think he should count his blessings and avoid drawing attention to himself, but yay for him? /shrug emoji

    Gio was a complete non-factor. Forgot he was there, his name got called so infrequently.

    True. Dyche has some strengths as a manager. His weaknesses include making binkies out of bad players like Young, which is infuriating. Young does not have the athleticism to compete in the PL anymore.

    Forest can STFU. I judge these things by wherever I’d have been truly aggrieved if they’d gone against my club and of the three only the Young handball cones close and not even that. Forest were putrid. They had one good chance. They did not compete well.

    2024 FA Cup

    Just tuned in to City- Chelsea. 83’ gone. Not shocked to see it level, but would have figured 3-3with these, not 0-0. but of course as soon as I type that here’s the City goal. Resistance really is futile. They just joylessly crush everything in their path.
