Tonsta Posted December 12, 2020 Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 At last after 6 awful games, a team turns up with a fighting spirit. I have to say where has been, well done lads, i will sleep well. Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuffRob Posted December 12, 2020 Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 we look just as likely a second goal just as they where to get an equaliser, maybe more so. - great performance against the leagues form team. limited them to not much more than a couple of freekicks.

Wiggytop Posted December 12, 2020 Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 Great result and a great team effort all round. So so happy tonight to have 3 points and a clean sheet again. No issues with anyone, just need to get Richy on the score sheet and we will be a team that frighten any in the PL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plaidharper Posted December 12, 2020 Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 After holding my breath for 45 mins... What is this feeling? Pure joy. What a weekend! So stoked for the fight that was shown. Even Siggy put in a shift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Btay Posted December 12, 2020 Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 Proper Everton that. Dont think anyone expected a win let alone a clean sheet and we go and do both. DCL, what a player we have! markjazzbassist and Romey 1878 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romey 1878 Posted December 13, 2020 Report Share Posted December 13, 2020 I am so happy with that performance, I don't think any of them had a bad game. We didn't have as much of the ball as I'd have liked but it was a gritty and determined showing from them and I'm really proud of them all to be honest. We rode our luck at times but you need that sometimes and, lets be honest, we had our chances as well so it's not like it was a smash and grab or anything.

AlbanyNYToffee Posted December 13, 2020 Report Share Posted December 13, 2020 HUGE 3 pts. Chelsea came in 17 unbeaten and would have gone top with a win, they had everything to play for and we defended for our lives. Keeps up in striking distance in the table and gives us momentum as this was the start of 6 games in 16 days. Let’s go to Leicester full of confidence. markjazzbassist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RuffRob Posted December 13, 2020 Report Share Posted December 13, 2020 I think this run of 'tough' games will do us the world of good now. Solid defending as a 'team', hitting teams on the break. We are going to get plenty of practice at playing like we did this weekend against Chelsea. We could come out of Xmas period with a very solid and well drilled defensive base. 0-0's and the odd 1 -0 will do me fine over the next 4 - 5 games. I hope ALL the player now know what sort of performance is now expected if you want to be in the starting 11!!! Palfy and Matt 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornish Steve Posted December 15, 2020 Report Share Posted December 15, 2020 Our Internet was out on match day, so I had to watch after the fact: Knowing the final score rather took away from the excitement, but I enjoyed the entire 90 minutes. Alex Iwobi impressed me, I must say. The guy is beginning to come into his own. His final passes leave something to be desired, but that will improve over time for sure. How many times did he receive the ball under pressure, turn on a dime, and break away up the field? For me, he was MotM. Well done to him, and I look forward to continued improvement. Calvert-Lewin is becoming a more rounded player. His pass to Richarlison in the second half demonstrated vision, awareness, and accuracy. His presence in the penalty area won both penalties, even though the second was denied. We now have a target man, one who scares every defence in the league. I was quite impressed with Godfrey in this game as well. He's not afraid to take players on, and his positioning saved us more than once. Allan: Why is he not our captain? He's the gritty dynamo we've wanted for so long in the centre of the field. You really can't fault the guy, whether on or off the ball. What a tremendous signing he's been. I know Richarlison took some flak in this game, but I actually thought he did well. For sure, he stumbled or tripped or mishit at crucial moments, but his energy and drive are returning. His covering in defence, especially the amount of ground he covers, is becoming a useful asset. Doucoure was solid but not special in this game. Keane did his work well, and Holgate is playing with experience beyond his years. Mina caused a couple of problems, maybe through lack of communication, but he's OK. Despite a couple of decent saves, I no longer have the confidence in Pickford I'd like to have in our goalie. I'm not sure what it is, but that niggling worry is always there: Will he do the right thing? While he received kudos from many, I was still not impressed with Sigurdsson. He simply doesn't fit in the team and certainly shouldn't be captain. He lacks that killer instinct. It's as if he's playing simply because that's his job. Yes, he made some clever passes, but more important is a cohesive team structure. A good solid performance, and I hope we can replicate it against Leicester.
