  • Tony yes, Rohl felt like we'd been loaned a player from one of the elite clubs last night. His mentality was superb. Re Tarks, I'm inclined to agree, he's been dropping some proper clangers, but I also understand why he's still getting picked. Harland didn't get a kick last night, and that fellow can really bully centre halfs. Like with Kohl, Turks has that big game mentality. Even if he is switching off all the time!...
    Kevin Molloy in Everton vs Manchester City: Player Ratings
  • If Tarkowski, is taking the blame for City’s goal, then maybe he his behaving like a true captain, and protecting a lot of his teammates? He was poor, very f***ing poor, but so was every single Everton player, who was in front of our two central defenders…. The phrase that comes to mind, is schoolboy football. Doku, was having a field day during that first half Kevin, but he must have been getting frustrated with Merlin Rohl, because the kid never put his head down once and he just kept getting on with the game. I thought Rohl’s discipline was exceptional, and Jake O’Brien, must have been delighted with the help he received all night, imo....
    Tony Abrahams in Everton vs Manchester City: Player Ratings
  • Brian@7, is the first person I have read criticising the first half performance but I have to agree with him.rnrnI think City, were beginning to get a little bit frustrated before they got the breakthrough, but it might have also been the best thing to happen to Everton, because we were a much brighter team in the second half.rnrnI never went, even though I think I will always be a person who prefers to watch a game from inside the stadium, rather than on the television, but the thing I learned the most from watching on TV, was that Barry, has been doing loads of weights on his arms.rnrnPurple Aki, wouldn’t have left him alone after seeing those biceps, so let’s hope those two goals do him the power of good, plus his Arsenal mates, would have also been absolutely buzzing last night!...
    Tony Abrahams in What we learned from Everton 3 - 3 Manchester City
  • oh dear, my innocent one line request it would seem has pierced Darren\'s defences and caught him flush on the chin, and he was carried from the ring a few minutes ago. He\'s still out, but doctors have confirmed that with the correct rest and recuperation he is expected to make a full recovery. Probably best not to mention this line of questioning though when he comes around. ...

  • If Branthwaite is healthy, then yes, it\'s O\'Brien and Jarrad in the middle. Can\'t do that however if you don\'t have higher quality right and left backs which we don\'t. rnrnTarky\'s been fairly solid but he\'s good for a howler every once in awhile at the absolute worst time.rnrnThis is all a moot point as O\'Brien will stay at the RB position until we fill it with a quality attacking defender....
