Hafnia Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 Another special mention to the supporters of YB, fantastic again. Was great to see our crowd recognise them, sheer class Very good support. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brett Angel Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 I thought that. Really comfortable on the ball. Strongest player we have, he is a beast. Bit off with his shooting but his energy was good and made a few nice passes. He shows the age of experience as a striker compared to lukaku. Not having a go at Lukaku but kone links players up really well and he is not as obvious with his runs off the defenders shoulder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newty82 Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 Kone looked good. Bit rusty at times I think, few more games would make him sharper. And that sums up the frustration of this season...we see these players in the squad, the quality in the starting 11 and on the bench...but you just don't know what your gonna get.

MC11 Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 Kone was outstanding when he come on. If we had kone's movement and touch with lukakus finishing, we'd have the best striker in the world. Kone was shit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brett Angel Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 I see people getting excited about a possible partnership of lukaku and kone. I really don't think this would work. One. Of these added loses a creative midfielder. I don't think either one can compensate for this. Stick with one for 70 mins and get the next powerhouse on for the last 20 with fresh legs.

I've said this before. Kone is like wind up toy running round with no sense of direction he has triangular boots as well. There is no way he could be our main striker.

Blue 250 Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 Kone was shit Have to admit, I'm afraid it's true, link up play is average but his shooting was awfull.He has speed in his locker and maybe he needs games, but to be honest he's Martinezs' worst signing.

Romey 1878 Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 (edited) Kone's attempts at goal just had me laughing. It'd have been different if we'd needed to score, but the bloke is comedy relief at least. Great result and a decent performance to go with it. Bring on the next round.

It'd have been different if we'd needed to score, but the bloke is comedy relief at least. Great result and a decent performance to go with it. Bring on the next round. He had three shots... One at the keeper (on target), one hit the post and one that sat up as he was going to strike it.

Blue 250 Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 Couple of touches from Ossie tonight were fantastic, can't imagine he's ever going to be a 90 min player much more during the rest of his Everton career, but used right with 30 mins against a parked bus he gives us something.So what we saw from him tonight must give us hope.

Btay Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 With that sort of game luck maybe you should think about not going tonight? Mate exactly my thoughts! So stoked with the result! Finally got to see Goodison rocking and it's one of the highlights of my life. If I may say, you guys that get to experience that sort of atmosphere are truly privelaged beyond words to get to experience that!

flaminfox Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 (edited) Gibson was very good. Always loved him as a player and am happy he is performing to what we need him to be. Hopefully he will stay fit, because I think he is our best midfielder if he keeps this up. Great result and now we need to take care of Arsenal next to really see an up in our season Edited February 27, 2015 by Parapluie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasn't, but for sone to admit he did well means golden Boy isn't as good. Three shots, two on target. He just needs that sharpness to come. His hold play was excellent again. Gives us a different dimension when he comes on. Though lukaku was excellent. Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kone is like the opposite to Lukaku - great build up player but he's just not a great finisher. I can't tell you how pleased I am that he's not our main striker and that Lukaku is, or we'd be in a hell of a lot more trouble in the league than we are now.
