92nd minute against west ham, 99th in the derby then 97th tonight. 4 points extra if we don’t concede that goals would be tied up with bournemouth in 6th. Proper horrendous that. Don’t care if it’s a great finish we’re soft as shite and chucked Europe away this season.
Shit comment from Moyes that. Speaking as if Branthwaite hasn’t played at centre back much. He’s our best centre half by a mile and played 70+ games there for us.
🗣️David Moyes on squad selection: "I think this is probably the first time we've had enough players to rotate and try things. Jarrad Branthwaite is as comfortable at left-back as he is at centre-back.
"Quite often when you're a young central-midfield player, you often find your way into the first team playing off the sides. I think Mikel Arteta, when he came here, probably had to do the same thing.
"When you're a young centre-back, you often end up playing at full-back."
They don’t half surprise us that’s for sure. Superb away performance and should’ve been 2-0 it’s a really harsh decision to chop off obrien’s goal. Wouldn’t be sending armstrong back out on loan what an energy about the lad! Delighted for barry that finish was lovely✅
Sean Dyche’s post match interview started with a comment about Everton’s improved finances. It was cut short as he complained about “tapping up” of Elliott Anderson by his replacement at Everton, David Moyes. Who took the blues to fifth place today. LC.
Absolutely delighted with that. Feared the worst before the game with a bit of a shy squad. Team does lack in parts but can’t question the spirit some top performances and we really did push second half which is good to see! Dewsbury Hall and Obrien absolutely top!
Piss poor from Moyes that. For Dibling not to come on there after spending 40 odd million on the lad. Even worse anytime we’ve seen Mcneil this season he’s been miles off it and he didn’t look any different tonight either
Great win that! Poor first half and arguably could of been a few down but great to fight back. Alcaraz very good when he came on alot more like himself. Delighted for Grealish🔵⚪️
What a stadium and what a great day. Grealish could of played in his slippers, some of Keane’s diags🤌 and JP coming up with the goods when needed as always🧤 First win of the season ticked off✅
Does anyone know if the opening game at home against Brighton will be based by how much home games you’ve been to for getting early access to a ticket through the members scheme a bit like the final home game last season or will it just be back to normal??
Smart signing getting tete in, powerful, athletic and prem proven. Back up keeper and a left back with good quality and our defensive options are very good✅
