I agree with you on the goalkeeper position should've been the club's biggest priority this season.

But I do also understand that you were struggling to score goals last season, so it's not an enviable spot to be in tbh.

Well he wasn’t really impeded that much .. after the game they showed the EXACT same thing happening to the Arsenal keeper who was just more assertive/ stronger and punched the ball away to safety …


It was odd really as Roy Keane said he should have been stronger at half time then the Arsenal keeper did exactly what he suggested about 20 minutes later


Joe Hart analysed the incident at length on Match of the Day and even showed how the Arsenal keeper dealt with the same situation

I don't know about top 6.

But it's looking better for them compared to last season.

i think Man U are likely heading in the right direction, but time will tell if they have removed the attitude problems from the squad

Interesting … maybe he shouldn’t be a contender for Balon D’or after all ?

If only that chance had fallen to Delap, or Palmer, or Enzo in the dying seconds.

Wonder why he persisted with Pedro for 70 /75 minutes … just giving Delap 15 minutes

Apparently both Dwight McNeill and Jack Grealish both on the bench tonight !


Even though Jack has worked with a personal trainer throughout the summer break - with the view to finding a new club and is fully fit ..

I have no idea why Jack chose Moyes over Spurs or Italian champions Napoli !!

If Grealish can't even get in Everton's starting 11, then I don't fancy his chances of breaking the Tottenham or Napoli starting 11.

Moyes wants workaholics workhorses ..
Jack would walk into that left side of Spurs in the void left by Son

I’m done with this game - 20 minutes of non league level football is my limit

I’ll record and watch the last 10 minutes when Jack comes on later on

VAR is absolute sh1te

I hate Tarkowski but his arm was right by his side almost behind his back so how can that be handball !!


They missed the ManU penalty on Kunha yesterday and disallowed Eze’s screamer when nothing has been done about that stupid 1 metre rule in 5 years

Moyes left it far too late to bring on Grealish and left their new CF on the bench throughout

I thought that Man Utd should've had a penalty yesterday too.
