Everton 1-1 LCFC - Post Match Thread

[FoxFossil]

Think this shows Nacho and Under starting, got to be worth a try. 

[moseeds]

There was that 15 minute period in the second half culminating in a goal where we were absolutely relentless in possession, recycling and attack. Really missed a muscular presence against their back line but damn that was just breathtaking to watch as a city fan. Feared the worst when Ndidi came off but Mendy was just awesome tonight.

[Lesta2014]

Great energy in the performance another day 3/4 go in! Blatantly obvious we need a striker as we didn’t have one tonight! Kelechi obviously finished here. 
 

oh and word on Everton, negative boring and how richarlison didn’t get booked I don’t know! 

[jmono84]

The players did amazing to get a point against that tripe! All of our players worked their bollocks off against an ultra defensive team and still managed to create some good chances. Can’t knock that performance!

[Stuntman_Mike]

I never thought I'd see us be treated like a genuine top side away from home in the top flight. That was a real statement of how far we've come and on another day that's a comfortable win. Our mentality is improving no end and that's right through the squad.

 

[Vazman]

Everton are going struggle to get their Team Bus out of their Goal mouth tonight, especially with the down poor of rain...

[winteriscoming]

Perez did better second half. Still too lightweight for a forward. Another forward needed either in this window or in the summer. 

[NeilLCFC]

Excellent performance from us. Especially as we were playing with 10 men. Perez should be banned from entering Leicestershire.

Also one of the most negative foxestalk performances - the number of people writing the game off at 40 minutes... 

yeah idiots never learn, always the same from the little I have seen on here during a match.

Think thats the sort of game we would have lost last season.

[Fox seen in Norwich]

Good away point that. Shame not to take all 3 but 7pts from saints chelsea and Everton is a great return.

 

hope ndidi not too bad

 

perez I did better than I thought. Definitely deserves another go.. couldn’t have been easy against that giant wall of Everton’s 

 

under gave a nice alternative to our attack

 

on to the next!

[casablancas]

Even the mrs could identify that Everton were not playing football. Had me giggling how engaged she is now. But she’s right. They were disgusting to watch. 

[Mythyaar]

EFC had their 2 key midfielders missing in Allan and Doucore so will be delighted with the point.

 

We still look very shaky at corners!

 

 

[Steve Earle]

Surprised by the positivity surrounding Under. Thought he was poor, selfish & doesn’t play with his head up. His pace helped, granted, but I’m not sure what else he contributes?

[Mike Oxlong]

Thanks Flapper

Imagine being the home team pushing for a European spot and being camped on your 18 yard line for 70 minutes. Horrible negative team. Mersey Burnley

 

Used to think Grealish was the most unlikeable player in the league but Richarlison has easily taken that crown 

How that chump got away with no yellow - 5 fouls tonight including two absolutely woeful tackles 

[martyn]

Happy enough with the point but it feels a bit like 2 dropped given it was attack v defence 2nd half.

 

So surprised with how Everton approached that 2nd half, and even more surprised that Ancelotti didn't try and get some legs into their midfield when Tielemans started to boss it. Davies and Gomes may as well not have been there and we never really got turned on a quick counter, which was my main worry when Ndidi went off.

 

Think we would have lost that game 2nd half of last season so it's pleasing to see we didn't fold mentally, or run out of ideas either.

You can criticise Everton all you like but it got them a point, even though they were clearly second best,they'll be points we earn like that.

[weller54]

And the lesson we've learnt tonight...

..

..

SIGN A BLOODY STRIKER!!!!

[TWUKO]

Glad we managed to get a point, we were the better team, early in the season or last season we'd of lost that for sure.

 

Hopefully we're becoming hard to beat now and even if a team doesn't want to play football they're not walking away with all 3 points. Another good step forward hopefully.

Madders was in the thick of the action.

I expect him to be better then thick of the action.

[Nod.E]

Difficult to know how to manage it, but I think it might be time for Soyuncu in for Fofana, assuming Evans hasn't suffered an injury that will keep him out.

He hasn't been awful or anything, in fact quite the opposite. But he was at fault for the goal and was a bomb scare for the final couple of minutes there, which could have cost us the game. I'm not being too critical, that's just what you'll get from a 19 year old centre half. 

Soyuncu is 5 years his senior and I think it shows.

Anyway, good point. Everton could have sh*thoused that quite easily. Shame they scored first as it gave them a platform. 

Just pleasing to see us continue our recent good performances. We'll continue to win playing like that. Nobody gained points on us tonight which also helps!

He’s probably the only person immune from Covid. He literally couldn’t catch anything.
