Everton v Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

[Risso]

Another defensive shambles you say?  And we didn't buy a defender in the whole of January?  And Reading won as well?

Well that's just perfect.

[Breezeblock]

Oh, for those halcyon days when we had Zat Knight and Curtis Davis as centre-halfs   

[Rigadon]

I know people like to put a positive slant on things, but I can't see how that was a decent point?  Despite loads of people expecting a battering and us not getting one, we threw away another 2 goal lead and yet again capitulated when under pressure.

The Dunne situation is bizarre. Something really dodgy going on.

I'm quite capable of moderating thanks s_h, and have already asked John to apologise and he has.

Yes, he always apologies for his abuse. Doesn't seem to stop him though.

you and fletch obvously use the same stirring spoon

[Can Gana Be Bettered!?!?]

Vlaar is not as good as people think, in my opinion.

I think he's pretty poor to start with. Average, maybe.

I'm not looking forward to him and Clark dealing with Andy Carroll.

Being Fat Sam, I'm sure you're looking forward to it!!!

I wonder if he's in rehab for a drink problem

Why oh why do we sit back so deep?
They were shitting themselves with our pace, we need to take the game to teams more and not sit back

This is driving me mad. How many time do we have to make that mistake.

How does the old saying go again, "only a drowning man clutches at straws".

[claret and blue blood]

Heartbreaking to see us fail to win because the obvious weakness weren't addressed in January while Sissoko gets a last gap winner for Newcastle.Feeling very low at the moment but an illogical feeling that we will survive is persisting!

Where did the 6 minutes come from? I know they scored in the 3rd minute of added time but seeing that board go up must have really given them a lift. Predicted a pasting, got a point away against a decent team, scored 3 good goals, so happy with those positives; on the negative side any other team would have seen out a 2 goal lead, we still  give away too many silly fouls, and our defence is still costing us points.

[Mortimer's Bear]

I did like the socks though, we should wear them from now on at home.

Andy Carroll returned and scored today. Cole and him will beat up Vlaar and Clark.

Why not leave the moderating to us? If you have an issue with another poster then inform any of the mods by PM.

No, no, no...
