Everton working in conjunction with the weather. A typical Northern tactic. Expect us to improve in the second half...............

Edited December 22, 20241 yr by TheBeard

Have to keep in mind Everton shut Arsenal out last week, and are now shutting us out.

It is very difficult to score past them.

Stop it would you, he’s on track for a 20 goal season at 23, better returns than drogba in his first 50 games, he’s scoring key goals, who or what is it you want? Guy doesn’t get nearly the credit he deserves 

I don't want to sound overly pessimistic given the season we are having, but I am still not convinced Jackson is the guy to lead us to glory, as Drogba did. Clear-cut opportunities are scarce this game and Nico literally missed 2 sitters. It is good to give credit but it is also fair to criticize when appropriate.

They are 16th, they need the points.

If the day has come when basic logic and self-interest have overcome tribal pettiness then the game really has gone.

Anyone know the rules of lacrosse?

Aye, they are basically saying "you lot are not good enough to score past us, prove us wrong if you can".

I am starting to understand Ice Hockey a little.

Rest of the family over here are Oilers fans. Was getting grief for how boring football can be last week.

Am glad they are not here for this one.

They were never 2 sitters one was behind him the other was a reaction header no time to set himself at all and he almost out both in 

Pickford and his t-rex arms pisses me off more today

Peter Reid looks like a 1930s American gangster

The negativity in this thread is truly inspiring.

Enzo Fernandez MoTM. 

Sanchez saves our asses again.

Badly missing Goal Machine Cucu.

I think Maresca might have got this one wrong today.

To be fair, he was due a bad game too.

Agreed not exactly a Sancho game tbh

We are all over the place need a change, Sanchez for all his brain farts is some shot stopper 

what a save from Sanchez
