Izquierdo a total liability at times

And a mercurial talent at others.

AJ being exposed in defence on the right and Bong letting them through on the left. Delighted with 1-1 but it’s going to be hard to get points today

Knockeart on ?
He does do a shift as a defender.

I woudnt be surprised if Richarlison doesnt play the second half after that twist.

Chris needs to earn his salt now.

Same comment by every away club in every game in the country today. Congratulations.

You're correct to an extent, but it's not usually as noticeable as this.

 

[Bodian]

What a good game. When was the last time we were ahead on 'shots on target'?!

Seemed okay when he ran the length of the pitch and blasted it past Ryan!

Us:
Much better away performance than Newcastle - much better tactics as we’re having a good go at times. At least look dangerous although have left a few holes at times. Their goal was class & not a huge amount we could do although perhaps backed off too much.

Them:
Very good as you’d expect. But the gap isn’t as big as it should be for the money each team has spent difference - and the PL experience. I expect them to nick it but I’m happy with the performance so far.

Albion fans:
Bloody superb. So so so loud and outsingingn them easily. So much louder than palace 2010 franchise when they were there (it was on TV). Brilliant.

No pressure and we’re playing a bit like it...

Yea but now he has stopped running and theres no adreneline (I have had more than my fair share of ankle injuries).

People moan about the Amex sometimes, cant believe how quiet it is at Goodison

I thought the same about Dean Court earlier, admittedly there’s only 8 people there but still.

Credit to Ali J for his corner for the goal. Looks like a very strong corner taker - could be an asset with D/D and M in the box.

It was Solly March who crossed it in, Ali J just played a short one to Solly

Be fair, AJ’s first corner lead to their goal, our goal was all about Solly.

We've been really poor in possession so far this season. We seem to really struggle to keep hold of the ball and lck any real fluency in attack. How much of that can be put down to Gross being injured and how much is it something else? What is that something else?

Anyway, it's nice to see that we've actually spent some time in the Everton half rather than just packing out the defence. We hven't looked particularly threatening but baby steps and all that. A point would be a fantastic result.

Amex was top 4/6 in the champs. It’s the same in prem. has its off days but still louder than most grounds even then.
