I’m still puzzled by the non red card. Last man- denied a goal scoring opportunity!!

when did the rules change that he tried playing the ball so all is okay?? 

Another rediculos change in the rules. Deny a goal scoring opportunity but if you try to play the ball its a yellow. No justice in it really as players will, as they do, look to play the ball fully knowing theyre not going to get it.

Difficult to say we've improved on last season. Factually we have. We've got 10 more points and are likely to finish 2 positions higher. 

We've also added 3 starters to our squad (admittedly who have had their fair share of injuries). 

We have improved, but considering recruitment and expectation, its very very marginal. 

To put it in perspective we're 10th on goal difference behind a team that were promoted from the championship last season with West Ham also outperforming us. 

That is simply not good enough, and when we say we've improved it's difficult to say it with any vision of us being on the right track. 

The other thing that will be different this season compared to others is the Covid fallout. That was the period we excelled and yet as the rest of the league has got back at it, we have got worse and worse. You take out that brilliant start and we are at the same level, or worse, than last season.

There has certainly been no progress on the pitch.

A few years back. should have been a retake though as a city player was in the box.

Should have been a retake on the Pen - typical Everton officiating 

Why? Ederson had a foot not only on the line, but behind the line

Edit: just saw your last post, I was too busy looking at Ederson's feet and wasn't looking at players in the box

For me, that sub just sums up our issues. Iwobi will do fuck all. Most the time, our subs do nothing. 2 GKs on the bench a lot of the season.

Depth. Real issue.

The other side of this is the amount if senior players we have out on loan. Just shows how poor our decision making has been these last 4/5 years. Really do need a period of settling.
