Everton v Newcastle

[Blue Lagoon]

That was a bit close

When we can play for 90 minutes we'll be awesome

cant we ever go on and stuff a team so pissed off we let them back in but hey ho we won i suppose

[Jimmywhack]

Fucking hell Everton

[KoemansNumberTens]

Second half was nowhere near good enough. Some of the passing from Gareth Barry was utterly suicidal. He was playing through balls for midfielders to run onto and into traffic. Weve got to be more realistic at times and do the basics well

[Major Clanger]

So summing up: the negative is that we can still only play well for 45 minutes, the positive is that we've got the firepower to make it count. And that's the long and short of it.

[velimski]

thank fook for that

[Danny]

Deaulofeu amazing going forward but possibly the reason we were so weak at the back?

[Everton Mint]

At least we took advantage when we were on top. Defence mostly sound but midfield and attackers need to link up better and keep the ball longer.

The problem seems to be countering tactical changes by the opposition. Fulham game was the same. It's a bit worrying.

3 point in the bag though and that what counts most.

Fuck it. A wins a win & we're in transition/learning a new philosophy. Grind it out til we get it right.
