For an absolutely unnecessary barge at Rogers. Smiling away as he does.

I think Moyes should get -4. -3 for the 3 wingers left on the bench to select Rhol ( to add ‘steel and energy’, apparently. No just another fuckin square peg for the defensive work). -1 for being a shit house. Cannot wait to see that back of that man.

That was Chelsea’s first clean sheet for 9 months, which says it all. It was Tarkowski’s 73rd PL booking.

Well that bit me on the arse didn’t it?
Posted 17/10/2026 at 15:07:00
I thought Rohl was hardly in the game and Grealish was our only creative player and laid on an easy header for Barry. Nearly switched off when Johnson came on. Really not good enough, very little creativity.

Football is about many things, and if you haven’t got enough quality then the game has got to be about hard running. We started slowly, never ran hard enough and then the first time we did run hard and tackled with aggression, the referee branded a yellow card. Absolutely soul destroying, which is how I also feel when I witness a lot of things David Moyes, does and does not do

Tom, it was a real coop bringing Moyes back to stabilize the club.

Perhaps it is time to question the zero bound for these ratings.

Really it was shite

You gave the useless cunt 1

The full-backs were a disaster, Garner was anonymous, Grealish and Dewsbury-Hall offered nothing. Norgaard and Johnston on after 85th with Hackney and Dibling left on the bench was inexplicable. Same side next week.

First goal was on Rohl for trotting back, completely losing his man as the fullback flies by. Then, I am thinking Dewsbury-Hall should have hedged his bet on whether to stay top of box or float down to cover Neto in a dangerous position. Someone should have denied Neto a clean look at goal. Btw, that Rohl mistake was a repeat of the goal given away when George made the very same mistake. What the hell is going on with the defensive assignments? That seems to be on Moyes for not getting that addressed. And why have Barry in the box for a free kick? He deadened the deflection perfectly by not using his body shape to move it away or pass through.

Fuck off soreness you 🔔 end mainland miles was at fault for the first then norgard for the second
Posted 17/10/2026 at 14:35:00
Agreed
Posted 17/10/2026 at 14:33:00
You should always rates Moyes for his team selection and game management. 1/10
Posted 17/10/2026 at 14:32:00
The chickens came home to roost and Moyes proved how clueless he really is. We had struggled against the likes of Ipswich and Hull and only some very late drama against Manure and Bournemouth had given the season a somewhat false look so far but most of us know the problems and it all starts at the top. Whilst we know on paper Chelski were favourites today Moyes made it easier for them with his decisions. He has to go soon for things to have a chance of getting better.
Posted 17/10/2026 at 14:27:00
A Moyes bottle job masterclass. Play not to lose.
Posted 17/10/2026 at 14:24:00
Christy , we’ve a dinosaur of a manager, what else would you expect, dire performance from all, especially our manager.
Posted 17/10/2026 at 14:21:00
Agreed
Posted 17/10/2026 at 14:21:00
Moyes needs sacking
Posted 17/10/2026 at 14:20:00
Oh and moyes cost us this game the prick
Posted 17/10/2026 at 14:19:00
I’m not going to write off Noorgard after 1 game, I remember Howard Kendals first game. I can’t believe Moyes put him on when we were chasing the game and he is clearly not match fit. What has Hackney got to do to get on? When we needed someone to get us back into it surely he was the better option? One word sums up the difference between the 2 teams, quality. And we need some, especially up front.
Posted 17/10/2026 at 14:17:00
Yeah, didn’t get the Norgaad sub. Was Moyes trying to keep the score down? Hopeless
Posted 17/10/2026 at 14:16:00
Totally unfair on Tarkowski who was the best player in a blue shirt and at times seemed to be playing them on his own.
Posted 17/10/2026 at 14:15:00
Fair call. Other than George, whose confidence was bursting early season but Moyes is intent on sapping, the Subs made things worse. Today showed the limitations of a TFG inflicted squad, but Moyes selections across the 90 minutes didn’t help matters Completely flat.
Posted 17/10/2026 at 14:14:00
The impact of lack of investment in the squad by the yank shysters and compounded by Moyesy’s negativity is going to kick in. The fullback situation will continue to kill us and with nothing upfront to talk about, it’s going to be another bland season. Caught in limbo for now. Fuck the Friedkins
Posted 17/10/2026 at 14:12:00
Managerial masterclass Christy.
Posted 17/10/2026 at 14:12:00
To some, Moyes will keep relegation away and we should be grateful for the mediocre stability he offers. For me there is some truth to that but I also believe Moyes also keeps progression away, he wants to eke out results, hope the fine margins go in our favour rather than go out, take the initiative and win games. To make things worse, Moyes already doesn’t trust Maitland-Niles and I think it’s through gritted teeth he isn’t playing O’Brien at RB already.
Posted 17/10/2026 at 14:11:00
Chelsea’s first clean sheet in 9 months. But in Moyes we trust eh? Poor team selection, poor tactics and a poor all round performance. Moyes natural tendency to play safety first seems to inhibit the players.
Posted 17/10/2026 at 13:57:00
If you’re trying to get back in the game, bringing on Norgaard made no sense, and Johnson has been shite, leaving Alcaraz and Hackney on the bench shows us how clueless Moyes is.
Posted 17/10/2026 at 13:44:00
Today was everything that’s wrong with our club. No right back, a striker who can’t score without 10 chances, a manager who won’t play Hackney or Dibling, but instead puts on an utterly ineffective Johnson and a guy in Norgaard who looks like he’d be slow in an over-40 league. At this point it doesn’t feel like it would hurt the club to just move on from Moyes and bring in Howe. That was absolutely inexcusable from the manager today.
Posted 17/10/2026 at 13:43:00
Did you need see Moyes leave the dug out to change his kex? Shit himself as usual
Posted 17/10/2026 at 13:38:00
Just so disappointing to watch this Everton-team during this match. And how can Moyes put in a player that is so slow as Norgard is when we have Hayden Hackney on the bench? Right now I have had enough of Moyes and his team. We where under 1-0 and we put in a player as far from match fitness as I have never watched before. Baffling.
Posted 17/10/2026 at 13:38:00
Barry was really poor today and should’ve buried the first half header.
Posted 17/10/2026 at 13:38:00
Last weekend was a first goal for a hull player. Gerhalt. This week it’s Chelsea have their first clean sheet since January. Always Everton. No matter what month or year.
Posted 17/10/2026 at 13:37:00
Predictable as it has been for a few games. Moyes won’t get adventurous, always going for the defensive side of things. Okay Chelski have some class big money signings and we have Barry. Nuff said.

Fucking everton fans leaving the ground pisses me off cunts
Posted 17/10/2026 at 13:33:00
A shocking online comment: Norgaard has had a debut to forget. His first mistake lead to a 3-on-1 which Everton survived, then he gives away a free kick, collected a yellow and Chelsea score again!!!! Seriously what is the point of Everton FC?
Posted 17/10/2026 at 13:31:00
Mykolenko 2 x assists! Moyes out!
Posted 17/10/2026 at 13:26:00
I don’t get it at all , getting beat , takes Grealish off and puts defensive midfielder Norgaard on – Beggars belief , I give in – Club going nowhere again , can’t score so we will slide down the table quick as a flash
Posted 17/10/2026 at 13:25:00
I don’t know how these comments work, but to whoever told me it was ‘utter bollocks’ that Norgaard was our worst signing in a long time… Boy do I hate being right all the time.
Posted 17/10/2026 at 13:23:00
Phooey! Merlin not switched on letting his full-back double up on AMN.
Posted 17/10/2026 at 12:39:00
ANM skanked
Posted 17/10/2026 at 12:38:00
Agree with John, we have to give Armstrong a new contract, for me he’s more skilful than Rice
Posted 17/10/2026 at 12:37:00
Ridiculous that Harrison got a yellow for that tackle, doubly ridiculous that they were reviewing it to see if it might be a red card (the Chelsea defender was up and after the ball in a millisecond), triply ridiculous that Morgan Rogers didn’t get a yellow for being off the floor in his 50/50 with James Garner. It’s been a decent combative game but we rode our luck a bit at times and it took a while for us to realise we really could contain them further out from goal if we were disciplined enough. I worry there is another questionable reffing decision coming that will pivot this game. Need to keep our heads. Henderson won’t last and I don’t think they’ve got another organiser on the bench. Up the cool-headed Toffees!
Posted 17/10/2026 at 12:37:00
That`s exactly how Everton FC should play football. Made up with that first half
Posted 17/10/2026 at 12:23:00
Chelsea players hitting the deck at every opportunity
Posted 17/10/2026 at 11:37:00
I see we remain masters of the underhit pass
