Digne was right.

Rafa: It's just mistakes mind you. You can't fault the team for their effort or my tactics.

Can we sack him at halftime?

Michael Keane please retire.

Give it to Big Dunc already.

For who?

We are going down aren't we?

going down early? was there any doubt?

Surprised to see 4-4-2. Much better than 5 at the back. He is just matching them up though. Glad to see Gordon still in.

Rafa won't play 4-3-3 sadly. He has mentioned 4-2-3-1 recently, so I guess... PickfordColeman Keane Godfrey MykolenkoAllan Doucoure Townsend Gray Gordon DCL Then maybe sub in Richie, El Ghazi, or Patterson on if they are ready.

A winger we don't need you say? Why don't we just sign 4 #10s while we are at it... oh wait...

Talksport and Twitter are really winding us up as of late.

Twitter is wild right now. Wacky theories and ITK accounts spreading hysteria like wildfire. Was going to say faster than Covid but actually here in the USA it is really really really bad... Ready for February.

We have been starting slow since October. We need our first team back. Then our minutes will be competitive.

Never saw Digne retiring at Everton. So selling him for a profit is good business. Probably should have happened in the summer. The spat with Rafa and his need for playing time to gain access to the World Cup squad has accelerated things. Will miss him when he is gone. Enjoyed how he stepped into the roll after Baines. Loved Baines and if someone Cuco Martina level had followed it would have really hurt. Digne played some good stuff while he was here. Wish this whole thing had been handled better. Tis par the course of late with our club though so I guess it is what it is. Not looking forward to the first time we play Villa with Digne in the squad.

Not sure why anyone is angry about postponement. We have numerous players out injured. We are not on a good run of form. We have new players that could benefit from time on the training ground. Yet Everton Twitter is melting down about the game being postponed like it is the biggest problem at our club right now. Understand that Rafa is enough to make anyone crazy but some folks have realllllly lost the plot.

Good to see him get some game time right away. Hard to make any judgements at all until we have seen a few games. Same goes for any player really who does not have PL experience. We have all been screaming out for younger players so now it is time to give him a chance.

Needs to go where he will get the most game time. Hoping the loan works out for him,

Gordon and Gray were great once again. Loved Dobbin's enegry. Still not happy with Rafa's tactics. On to the next one (just hopefully without a back 5).

Wonder what the scoreline would have been if we had stayed 5 at the back?

Hull has still embarrassed us... even in defeat. Rafa wont learn and we will be using a back 5 again next game.

110 mins gone and Hull are still in this...

Keane looks so much more comfortable in a back four.

whaaaaaaa? that was against the run of play.
