Everton v Leicester

[Evertonian in NC]

Oh, thank God!!!

[Evertonian in NC]

I was gonna suggest taking off Naismith.

That would have been silly.

I was in the middle of typing it when he scored.

[Evertonian in NC]

Keep on typing then

I doubt I was the only one, just the only to have confessed so far!

Nice rebuttal by Big Rom to Henry's criticism basically saying he needed to be more selfish.  In my view, a 21-year old striker with a team-first attitude is a special thing to have, and why he will be an Everton captain one day.

[Evertonian in NC]

Words fail me.

[Evertonian in NC]

Holy Christ, Howard.

[Evertonian in NC]

Revolting play, just awful.

[Evertonian in NC]

Let him be a sentimental ticket seller in MLS.  Fucking give him away just to clear salary.  But he has to GO.

[Evertonian in NC]

Pull any half-drunk pub league keeper out of the stands and it would still be level, at least.  Anybody but Howard.

[Evertonian in NC]

If RM keeps Howard in the lineup after today, then he's lost me for good.  BD is absolutely right.

[Evertonian in NC]

How the fuck do we not score THAT!

[Evertonian in NC]

There you go, Rom.  He kept his head up and kept working hard.  And it pays off.

Better than laughing it off like Howard always does.

I'll take the point FFS

[Evertonian in NC]

Atsu has had a nice last 5 minutes.

Definitely OG on replay.

[Evertonian in NC]

I guess we could vote Howard?  He was Leicester's MotM.

[Evertonian in NC]

I voted Stones for saving the match before halftime.  I truly believe we would have fallen apart had we gone down right before the break like that, to a cascade of boos.

If we'd of lost 2 nowt and he'd stood there and done fuck all Id be slagging him off and youd all be calling me a cunt. Scored 1 made 1, worked hard, constant threat, shite finishing and thats woeful?? Its obviously me because everyone disagrees with me but I clearly expect something different to everyone else. Lukaku was very good today with really crap finishing. Hes missed chances and hes still a 7 out of 10 for me.
Theres been matches hes done the square route of fuck all. Ive no issue with performaces like todays

Agree, Lukaku's been playing 90 minutes week in, week out, and working his ass off, plus being a good teammate.  His finishing touch was definitely off today, and yes, that was annoying.  But he was 4th or 5th on my list of concerns.  Howard's shitshow has to be the lead story, and Martinez has to answer for it.  Period, full stop.
