Captain... Posted 19 August 2014 Share Posted 19 August 2014 A rumble in Nuneaton, you know we are back in the big time now... There was also something on SSN about a woman in the home end being hit by what was described by an eye witness as a snooker ball, not heard anything more about it though. I don't know which stand she was in, so I don't know if it could have been thrown by an away fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZeljkoKalac1 Posted 19 August 2014 Share Posted 19 August 2014 a draw is fair in every way i can see. everton's main points to argue they deserve/were unlucky to not get all three seem to be a) our better players were either injured or not fully fit. errr vardy, albrighton, james, drinkwater, knockaert etc etc? our POTS, YPOTS and everyone's choice to challenge drinky for POTS were all out the game after 25 minutes, 2 didn't even start. we've been mullered by injuries here. b) your goals were lucky. errr a deflection from a punt back into the box from a corner that eventually fell to mcgeady. pretty lucky. pienaar slipping trying to either shoot/control baines' pull back and it landing on naismith's foot. pretty lucky. c) it was a high intensity game our players got tired they're not fully fit errr we both played the same game and our lads spent more of it chasing shadows in large parts. if anyone should've been dying towards the end it was our front line but we nicked a late goal. as you can see we can make as many (if not more if i thought hard enough) excuses or reasons to say we've been robbed of 2 points here. just accept it was a great game, thoroughly enjoyable for a neutral and we share the spoils. next. errrrr - I'd say a draw was a fair result! and I think you'd do well to find a good percentage of supporters from either team that will disagree.

Col city fan Posted 19 August 2014 Share Posted 19 August 2014 I hold my hands up. Andy King was superb. Tracking back, linking play in the middle and with a superb workrate. My MOTM without a doubt. I thought RDL looked shaky though. Nearly all Everton's play came down our left. He has a tendency to look nervy, defensively, and seemed so to me on Saturday. I thought the game looked different when we brought on Schlupp. The miss of the season aside, we finally introduced some pace into our game which clearly worried Everton. The difference between this season and last season IMO was clear to see. Firstly, the game was much quicker. I recall Knocky misplacing a pass in the first half which led to Everton counterattacking with such pace. Secondly.. finishing. In this division, give quality attacking players time and they will punish you. Its gonna be a steep learning curve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I play full back, and trust me when your being constantly over lapped you're not going to look very good no matter what you do. Baines got himself forward at every opportunity and played most of his passes in our half and as a result Da Laet was getting doubled up on, which makes the poor game from Knockaert even more inexplicable given the space was there to exploit. Schlupp, as usual, was poor. He's fast, that's about it, absolutely no end product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Following on, Yes we were knackered but we only have ourselves to blame when we played 3 pre-season games, allowed players who barely played in Brazil remain on holiday for far to long and thirdly when the game was screaming out for subs he made them far too late, but we've got a small squad which we really should have addressed before the opening game, it will cost us dearly combined with Europe this season if we don't shape up.

BlueKnob Posted 21 August 2014 Share Posted 21 August 2014 Alright fellas, just thought I'd pop back and give my thoughts on the game from an Everton point of view, can't be arsed going through 12 pages so apologies if I'm just repeating what someone else has already posted. I thought a draw was a fair result, and if I'm honest based on how the second half went I'm glad we managed to escape with a point, we couldn't really have complained if we left with nothing after how the respective teams performed second half. I've seen some Evertonians complaining about some snide challenges but we gave as good as we got and there wasn't anything in the game that I thought warranted more severe action from the ref, Lukaku was dealt with well and you didn't give us much time on the ball, which I think I mentioned in the other thread would probably lead to a bit of success. Our back 4 didn't look all that solid and I'm hoping that improves rapidly. Going forward though I reckon Leicester will trouble enough teams in this league to stay up, possibly even comfortably ala Hull a couple of seasons back, I mean that in the least patronising/condescending way possible. Good luck for the rest of the season, I'll probably be back here when you visit us at Goodison, by which point Lukaku better have 30 goals and we best be storming to a league title, otherwise I want my season ticket refunded.
