If he was tackled we would have been fine. It was just that the miss control compounded the problem as it acted as perfect pass to the midfielder who could put Antonio through with one touch. You can’t set up a defence on anticipation that your own player can’t control a simple ball. The fact one pass led to the striker having a shot on goal means it would automatically lead to a good chance. We were lucky it wasn’t one of the fastest strikers so the chance wasn’t even as good as it could have been. If it were say a Vardy he’d of used his pace to make it a better chance and would score that almost every time. 

Keane might have not seen Richie as at one point Godfrey coming back could have obscured his view in that split second. 
 

He wasn’t under anywhere near the pressure some are alluding. It’s easy to put a still up that tries to prove the point but that there is the reality of when he received it. Keane did a lot wrong but that being called out as a terrible decision is clutching at straws.

Who?

Ridiculous transfer, but then again we all know why it happened. 

Who?

I think we need the next game! 

I find a bit strange that Keane is getting stick for bringing the ball out of defence when we want our CB's to be doing that because more often than not our central midfielders aren't fit for purpose, so we need them to do it. One of the reasons people want Mina back and playing is because he can carry the ball out of defence and get us moving! We were on top and pushing for a vital three points and Keane decided to come forward and try and make something happen. I don't think there was anything wrong with that. When he came out with the ball Holgate or Doucoure should have been dropping back to cover him.
I also don't think he chose the wrong option to give it to Iwobi either. He was in space (like Barry has shown) and he was having a decent game, so our players are naturally going to look for him often. That's not to say the pass to Richarlison was the wrong option though. I think either one would have been a good choice.
At a push you could maybe say he played the pass a bit too hard for Iwobi but the fact that a player trying to get us moving and then giving the ball to an attacking player in space is getting far more attention than the player that was most at fault for the goal is mad.
This season needs to end because it is seriously making us all go a bit weird .

Don't understand all the votes for iwobi he cost us the game and completely lost the plot after the mistake . I'm baffled 

Jordan has learned to compartmentalise and turn off emotion at the final whistle. Sports psychologists have been pushing this for years and years. Can’t analyse when upset, so being calm will help. And besides, this things make lovely memes. 
 
I’ve been working on this for a couple of months myself. I used to take my work home in my head, and Everton results too. I don’t want to have that negatively impact on my family. So work switches off at 5:15, I take the time on my own after Everton games to get rid before I see my wife and daughter, in that time I stay off Twitter and TT. I’m just like Jordan Pickford  😂

I can’t recall but he had the time and space so makes sense. He’s certainly controlled and played the ball in much tighter situations many more times in that game. It was complacency and lack of concentration. Individual errors are seriously costing us.

I agree there were better options prior both Richie and Gray but ultimately he was in more than enough space to control the ball and it’s that lapse in concentration I see from him regularly that costs the team and him personally. Had he have controlled it no one would be talking about the options as I’m sure if we go through the match minute by minute there would be loads of examples from all our players of not taking the ‘best’ option. On a positive note he has been much better of late in his effort and output and it was him who put Richie through on both occasions in the first half. He would have been my MOTM if it wasn’t for that mistake that ultimately cost us a point. 
Im not even going to start on Keane as I’ve not enough time! 

Iwobi had a good game up to that absolute clanger! To try and really blame anyone else for their second goal is ludicrous. He’s a professional footballer who could control a slow 6 years pass to his feet. For me this is why I’ve never warmed to him he always has a shocker in his locker that overshadows all the good things he does. Yesterday it cost us badly. We had just got back into the game and we’re in the ascendancy.

It was amazing to be a part of it, Mike.
I knew we'd win but it was unbelievably stressful, and when we scored and the final whistle went it was an explosion of emotion and relief. I'm not much of an emotional person on the whole but my hands were shaking towards the end of the game and I ended up injuring myself during the celebrations .

Glad I did! Got in at 3am but worth every second. Great to share those memories with my son. Fantastic result against all odds. 💙
