dunlopp9987 Posted May 19, 2021 Report Share Posted May 19, 2021 Was going to change my prediction to a draw instead of a win, after seeing the lineups. Decided not to change, as I'm hoping the fans will give us that extra little bit we need to get it over the line Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuffRob Posted May 19, 2021 Report Share Posted May 19, 2021 there was always an element of a gamble with James coming here. A fit and consistent James and I am pretty sure we would have had half a dozen or more point, at the very least. The gamble has just not come off for us, but I can't blame the club for trying this - it was a no brainer to bring him here on a free. What do you do - I am guessing at his age he is only a stop gap anyway. dunlopp9987 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RuffRob Posted May 19, 2021 Report Share Posted May 19, 2021 maybe James was also one of the player he had in his mind when he said - if players are not happy at the club, they can jog on. Injured (sorry tired!!) or just dropped from the squad? Rumours earlier in the year he wasn't happy in UK, didn't go to Bayern as didn't like the culture/weather.

Shukes Posted May 19, 2021 Report Share Posted May 19, 2021 Who’s this Siggurdson lad? Seems a decent player. 13 minutes and unrecognisable for an Everton team this season. Fast passing, pressing and seek to be passing forward. Good save Pickford. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dunlopp9987 Posted May 19, 2021 Report Share Posted May 19, 2021 Cannot believe I predicted we would score 2 goals. We've only scored 2 in a game once since we won the derby. Honestly, why did any of us predict we would score more than 1 goal?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeO Posted May 19, 2021 Report Share Posted May 19, 2021 Cracking goal though, much better second half. Funny Hinchcliffe saying, "Don't talk to me about outswinging corners" in the first half and then having to back down when we scored. He was a great player for us but he's a knob as a pundit. chicagoblue, Palfy and Wiggytop 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonsta Posted May 19, 2021 Report Share Posted May 19, 2021 Good 3 points, but such a poor season, far to many lows, not enough work ethic, and no shape to the team yet, we live in hope for the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RuffRob Posted May 19, 2021 Report Share Posted May 19, 2021 we had all the best chances. But again, generally poor in possession. A lot of fear in our play at home. Think we will be overtaken by both Arsenal and Leeds on the last day and finish 10th now. I think Arsenal will nick the last Euro place off Spurs. but you never know on last day of the season.

Sure we could say "had we beat Sheffield we'd be in a good spot", but we can also say that about a handful of other recent results. Watch us win 5-4 at City Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
