  • As another poster said how about giving the manager some praise when we win, if we had lost the hanging party would have been out in force.rnToo many people want to \'piss in the same pot\'rnrnMy position on Moyes is that the may not be the best there is but he\'s certainly not the poorest....
    Raymond Fox in Blues ride their luck to chalk up a good opening win
  • Rob (15) Yes I thought that George and Ndiaye both had good games but I was waiting for them to switch wings now and again just to keep the Palace defenders guessing as well as giving Ndiaye a go on his preferred wing, George deserved a goal but that will come the more he plays....

    Raymond Fox in Everton v Crystal Palace: Player Ratings
  • Overall I was pleased with the all round display & the positive play from our five midfielders. A few of my in laws are huge Palace fans, born & bred... some believe they\'ve changed manager once too many and have sold too many of their influencial players, they\'d be disapointed to lose Munoz.rnHackney needs a bit of time to get up to the pace of the Premier League but, for me, a very pleasing display alongside Armstrong who again looked comfortable let\'s remember that he only 19!rnrnWill we lose some mobility when Norgaard is fit as he tends to sit deep?rnThe real negative for me yesterday was Tarkowski. We can\'t ignore the facts of life and laws of nature, with all the will in the world he\'s now just too slow.rnrnGreat 2nd half response which judging by the first 45 mins may have been a disaster....
