Bailey Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 Probably the most ridiculous game I have ever seen. Utd where there for the taking and despite the players did as well as could be expected considering what we had on the pitch. Fellaini was very influential despite not actually playing that great on the whole. Its a point more than we probably deserved but Utd were really poor at the back. I should be happy with that point but I can't help think what could have been today if we didn't handicap ourself to start with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jofanon Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 How good is Jelly. More like a £20m player than a £5m one. Terrible defending, Heits was awful. Felli fantastic game. Terrible ref and a total con of 5 mins stoppage. That is soooo corrupt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 Thought Mcfadden was crap tbh but in his defence he was always on the move and looking forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoodisonRoad Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 Great result, so proud of the team after that. I was so pissed off when Mcfadden came on but he did alright to be fair. Defence was all over the place today and i think it showed that we didnt have a natural full back playing on the left. If Swansea or Barca had scored that last goal everybody would be creaming over it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter H Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 Reminded me of the 3-3 game. When Cahill and Arteta scored in extra time. A simular game where Man U showed class and Everton showed heart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terrible ref and a total con of 5 mins stoppage. That is soooo corrupt. There was 6 goals and a couple of subs, so he was probably right tbh. Though i thought the ref was shocking and i agree Heitinga had a poor game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c1982 Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 more than happy to be showed up!! why couldn't we show the same guts against liverpool?! We weren't shown up today though... soon as things went against us it's same old fucking hell moyes... get barkley on! This was a game we attacked from the start - we sat back at times and maybe got nervous but decisions went against and didn't help our plight - we come out of this game with heads held high - no other team has scored on this pitch for the last 7 (?) games... I wish we'd shown up more when we went ahead against Liverpool but this is a totally different scenario today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoodisonRoad Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 Didnt think jags was too bad tbh, he wasnt good, but he wasnt bad. Heintinga got done by 2 dummies from a 20-21 year old. He's a WC finalist, for me that isnt good enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but its fashionable on this site to blame defensive errors on Jags where as Heitinga can do no wrong in some peoples eyes, infact its probably due to some sort of miscommunication on Jags part that Heitinga got sold 2 dummies today. The fact is the game was very stretched and open against world class opposition, I don't think either of them played well but I'm not going to be too critical of them, it was just one of them games, and fantastic to watch.

Bailey Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 (edited) Today just shows how many people are happier with the result than the process. If we played that game in the same way 95/100 we would lose. United were awful first half, and when they eventually picked the pace up they scored. It was same again in the 2nd half when they cut us open time and time again and should have gone 4-1 or 5-2 (cant remember which) when they hit the post. Our LB was out of position constantly allowing Man Utd the space alongside Heitinga and is why he wasnt as good as usual (and also had a knock on effect on Jags being below par as well imo). At times he has two attackers running at him, and while he should have done better for Welbeck's goal and Rooney's 2nd, he didnt do too much wrong for the rest of the game given the cirumstances. I dont even think we fought back and battled for the win. It was more of a case that they sat back, gave us the ball and while we got a little lucky in the way it broke for the 3rd goal, the 4th was pure quality. We didnt get in their faces and fight for the ball like we have done. They simply surrender possession and gave us the time to do what we did. We did keep going though and didnt give up, but that is different from battling back in my eyes. As I said before the game started, United are there to be had a go at and today proved me right. The time & space they gave us, as well as the general poor defending from Evans and Fabio especially was crazy for a team that are looking like winning the league. They probably gave us more time on the ball than any other team has in the league this season, which says massive amounts.

c1982 Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 We can look at this on the flip side... at 0-1 we would have had a 3vs2 situation which could have resulted in us going 2 up... football is about the whole game the 4-4 result and 1 point is what stands... we, as Evertonians, should be enjoying this!

Blue 250 Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 Start looking down the back of the sofa Mr Moyes, save your pocket money and get the car boots booked for the summer..........just get enough money to buy Pienaar back.Oh and if there's any over, get ready to increase Jelavics contract. No white flag, the lads did pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
