BarnsleyFan Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 Everton really have some top players and it was a pleasure to watch them fight tonight. Seeing Lukaku IRL's some sight. The guys a beast of a man but got the pace of a slight sprinter. When he ran with the ball at full speed it was scary but amazing to watch. I put on here yesterday that he was one of the players i admired the most and thats very much still the case. Deulofeu, simply won you the match. Everton were flat at times in the first half but when he come on you had pace out wide. Created all you goals apart from one? We had a CB at left back and unfortunately he tore him apart. Good to see so many Everton fans make the trip over. for sections of the match you lot really made yourself heard. Stones, those that made the trip over would have seen what we think of him and what he thinks of us. Several times using the match he applauded the barnsley fans and Barnsley fans sang a song near the end. Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markjazzbassist Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 Heard the match on the radio (was at work) and it sounds like you have a lot of very talented youngsters. Bravo. Crowd sounded great and from the radio feed it sounded like a great atmosphere. I heard you're 10th in the table, hope you're able to move up and fight for promotion.

Matt Posted August 27, 2015 Report Share Posted August 27, 2015 Thought your lot were superb, young but hungry and fearless. All the best for the rest of the season, though if you have that drive within the team, luck wont be that big a part of your success Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On Saturday a very physical Bradford came and 4/5 times during the first half had all 11 players behind the ball in their own half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This winds me up about League 1, my missus is a Sheff Utd fan, seen them play some real quality against Prem teams, then in league its defensive, physical dross. Same with Bradford and their cup runs. Hats off to your Academy, really impressive. Know they're a bit older but Hourihane has a wand of a left foot and thought Roberts was great at the back, first half at least. Looks quick for a big lad. And the Arsenal youngster looks quality too, hope you can keep him for a couple of years and play the football a lad his age needs to develop. Reckon we could do worse than send some of our kids to you on loan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shukes Posted August 27, 2015 Report Share Posted August 27, 2015 Now that's an idea Nogs. They play some real nice football very simular to ours. Our lads could learn a lot there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted August 27, 2015 Report Share Posted August 27, 2015 I wouldn't mind sending our youth on loan there, if Barnsley would take them (not convinced they'd get game time based on yesterdays performance mind!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duncanmckenzieismagic Posted August 27, 2015 Report Share Posted August 27, 2015 Apart from some fighting between our own fans it was a really enjoyable away day. Good atmosphere in the pubs outside the ground, well pub as we only found one! Great game to watch with goals galore and even loved my pie and peas from the chippy!
