MikeO Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 Strong team out tonight (only Jags missing?)! Howard, Hibbert, Baines, Distin, Heitinga, Osman, Pienaar, Gibson, Fellaini, Naismith, Jelavic. Mucha, Neville, Rodwell, Gueye, Duffy, Barkley, Coleman, Vellios, Anichebe. Bearing in mind the opposition we ought to have forgotten borrowing Rooney back and had Bily for the night! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcopaulo Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 GOAL! Everton lead 1-0 after just 39 seconds after Naismith lobs the greek goalie from Pienaar's great pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dalziel Kane Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 I forgot all about this match. What odds can we get on a Hibbert strike tonight? I'll bet they're even having a live match day forum on ToffeeWeb for this but not going over to find out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete0 Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 (edited) Fellaini behind the striker, Naismith right wing, and Osman in the middle . Naismith doing very well 2-1. Naismith tapped in header from a Pienaar cross after a 1-2 with Baines, standard Everton. Edited August 8, 2012 by pete0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeO Posted August 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 Not a bad home debut I suppose. Lowensda and marcopaulo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalziel Kane Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 I was a bit skeptical about this Naismith kid when we finally got him, and while you can't read too much into pre season games, and the Athens defense appears questionable, quite an impressive start to his Toffees career. Still hoping for a Hibbert 'moment' though. marcopaulo, pete0, Matt and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcopaulo Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 the lad looks sharp i must say..and as a team we look dangerous at the moment..gibson gone off for neville..just a pre-caution i assume as gibson trotted off in no real pain..as dalziel said though can't really read too much into pre-season games but athens are no mugs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 So we're actually playing well? That's a relief with the season so close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete0 Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 Can't help but think Fellaini is wasted in the advanced position, looks a little lost and sloppy, although our Iniesta-esque Osman is shining in the middle. Naismith looks bright, first competent right mid since....Kanchelskis? Everyone else playing fine, although Pip done one of them floaty things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gueye has had a couple of chances, unlucky with the volley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete0 Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 Congrats to Tony! However the second half was a bit dire, typical pre-season stuff but still disappointing. We will up our game for Man U in 12 days though . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoodisonRoad Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 Congrats to Tony! However the second half was a bit dire, typical pre-season stuff but still disappointing. We will up our game for Man U in 12 days though . "Dire" is a bit harsh pete! created some decent opportunities but like you say, typical pre-season stuff, we were never going to run riot (except after hibbo's goal ). Thought we played some really good stuff in parts, much improved from Blackpool and AEK are no mugs! looking forward to the start of the season!
