The Fish 10855 Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 Yeah people are digging out Burn or ASM, it's reductive and fails to take into account there was an entire game played where numerous mistakes or bad decisions were made by the whole team. We didn't lose that game because Burn was turned in the 103rd minute, or ASM was shoved off the ball. It was because we didn't create sufficient good chances, or take the half chances that fell our way. That's partly a lack of quality, partly a failure to manage the game as well as we have done before. I remember Robert being singled out, or Ben Arfa. It's often those that have the talent to occasionally win the game on their own who are blamed when they don't do it to dig the team out of a hole. I mean, fair enough to blame a defender who has a mare, or a keeper who flaps, but saying ASM lost us the game because he was arguably fouled, or because he didn't pass after beating 2 or 3 is a joke. Even if he did pick out a player, who was in the box? Joelinton? Wood? Murphy? Hardly a list of predatory finishers, is it? Easier to find a scapegoat than work out the more complex issues that lead to a loss. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dougle 3329 Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 Of the 14 minutes extra time given at the end of the 90 there was approximately 5:42 left to play, when they scored. The final whistle actually went when 17:03 extra had been “played”. But of that 8:45 or so that was “played” after their goal went in, the ball was actually only in play for around 2:15. How does that work like? They had 2 goal kicks, one of which should have been a corner, which took them a combined 3:38 to take. Add on an extra 0:52 it took them to throw the ball back in at the death, that was 4 ½ minutes they managed to fuck around with the ball out of play, easily more than half of that 8:45 supposedly played. And what was with our fucking about for the corner that was given?? Something wasn’t right about this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 35063 Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 Thought we were poor by recent standards and still the better side. We were unlucky not to get a point at least. Not going to pick on individuals to blame but I thought we saw glimpses of the kind of through balls we can look forward to when Bruno has more pace and movement ahead of him 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howay 12496 Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 This is the team that feel aggrieved by the referee. Honestly man, how Richarlison didn’t get sent off that game is absolutely mind blowing, he must have committed about 10 fouls and dived at least 3 times. Add this to all the other nonsense that went Evertons way yet they’re the ones aggrieved? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wykikitoon 20115 Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 Burn again was top last night for the majority. He's also someone who could do with a break. The intensity the players have been through the last few weeks must be immense. Add the emotion of coming to his boyhood club on top for him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He plays with an intensity that most of the time serves him well but in this instance cost us. Having said that it's 99 minutes deep and on the back of a few other errors our team made. He'll learn from this and will be better for it. He's a shit ton better than Lascelles and more combative than Schar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howay 12496 Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 I saw some Newcastle fan on Twitter banging on about what a top quality player Gordon is as he disrupted our game. So nothing he did on the ball, just that he ran around kicking lumps out of everyone - he must think Lee Cattermole was a world beater. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohhh_yeah 2964 Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 Everton club statement: Allan’s three-match suspension has been upheld after an independent regulatory commission rejected two appeals from Everton over the midfielder’s dismissal against Newcastle United on Thursday. Allan was initially booked for an 83rd-minute challenge on Newcastle’s Allan Saint-Maximin during Everton’s 1-0 victory at Goodison Park but, following a VAR check, the Brazilian was given a red card for serious foul play. Everton’s request to overturn that decision was rejected on Friday by the commission, as was a second appeal to downgrade the ban for excessive punishment. The decision means Allan will miss Sunday’s FA Cup quarter-final tie at Crystal Palace and next month’s Premier League trips to West Ham United and Burnley.

ewerk 30569 Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 Throw into the mix that since those accounts they’ve lost 66% of their sponsorship income and had to pay up Benitez’s contract then relegation for them this season would be the real kicker. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
