everton looked brilliant today they play good football too I think martinez would have been good for spurs also what do fellow fans think about kaboul saying he is going to play for arsenal next season I hope he does I will drive him and the rest of the rubbish there myself


Everton work hard, pass to their own man and move forward with pace. Why is that so difficult for us?


Considering Evertons average squad it just goes to show how important a good manager with tactics and a shape is. With the players we have we should be going for the title.

Its also amazing that Liverpool have had what12, 13 penalties with a lot of them very dubious and we got none last season.


Everton's average squad?You can't say they are average, Baines, Barkley, Coleman, McCarthy, Lukaku, Stones and Mirallas are not average players sorrry.


Everton's victory was nothing about hard work. It was about tactical nouse and an exploitation of Arsenal's frailty in the back 4. Martinez set about with a simple plan: stack the midfield and then use his forward players vertical and horizontal stretching to create 2v2's with Lukaku coming from deeper to get into the box.

Naismith played as a false 9, often dropping deep. With Sagna pushing upfield to put pressure on Baines Miralles moved inside to get picked up by a CB and then ran wide to draw them out of position. This left Monreal exposed to Lukaku, who brushed by him.

Watch the goals. Baines generally playing in from the left, Miralles running wide to draw a CB, then Lukaku and a late arriving Naismith making up the goals. Wenger adjusted a bit later with Arteta dropping deeper to pick up Naismith to prevent the CBs being exposed, but this led to a scrappy on goal from him.

You have to stop believing Sherwood's crap about it all being about running around lots.


Everton played as a disciplined team for 90 minutes . they got back when they lost possession and they made runs off the ball when in possession. Their closing down and work rate puts us to shame.


Paul, those players are very good apart from Mccarthy who is a Lee Cattermole clone and Lukaku is not Evertons but the rest of their squad is not Champions League quality.


Mccarthy a clone of lee cattermole?, are you seriously trying to embarrass yourself? seriously Spurski i'm genuinely stunned at your thought process. No i'm not an everton fan but you are absolutely clueless my friend
