Great week in europe 8 goals !!! it really showed how much we missed Pienaar 4 assists and he hit the post involved in everything going to be a steal at 3 mill hopefully they get him signed up more important than Manny who has been dissapointing since he came back not looking like a £12 mill player.
Big week Man city tonight and pompy at the weekend 2 wins there would set us up nicely for the last 10 games 2 defeats and we could find ourselves out of the race again very quickly
2 nil job done easily, never looked in doubt yak on the score sheet again must check the stats but i think thats 17 in 24 starts. Pienaar ran the game again MAnny looked out of sorts and came off ten mins after coming on with an "injury".
Beat pompy and we are in a great position
Dedicating a goal to someone who has gone to prison for partially blinding a man. Strange world we live in:

I dont know which is weirder why he did it or why anyone cares ? he dedicated a goal to his brother that just got locked up he didnt dedicate it to him for blinding someone.
The people looking for him to be banned now are idiots silly thing to do but theres nothing bad in it.
On the teams performance really pushing it now played 2 teams battling with us for a european spot and beat them quite comfortably roll on Thursday night now. then sunderland on sunday cant let it all slip away now.
No Doubt they will!!!!:D

Did Robbie Fowler not get a ban/fine for his coke snorting mimic a few years ago?
Along the same lines if you ask me.
He got fine/ban because he did that celebration to goad the oposition fans not to send a message to his brother. He ran if front of the Everton fans to snort the goal line ( or eat the grass like a cow as Houlier tried to pass it off as )Quote:

While this is silly its a spur of the moment thing after scoring a goal there is nothing more in it.
Scoring a goal is inciting the oppostiton fans in itself, bans and fines for scoring I say!
It's Cahill's decision whether he wants to stand by his brother or not. Just because people are horrified by the crime the brother committed, doesn't mean Cahill should publicly shun him. I say fair play to him for showing support for his brother.
Yeh, fair play to him. It will also be great if the people who are related to the ones who stuck screw drivers in the Poles heads stick by the perpetrators by pretending to have handcuffs on. Fair play to them :mad:Quote:

Im not for one second defending sean cahill for his actions its not as bad as the screw driver stabbing but not far off it.
If it was Joey Barton making a hatchet sign with his arm id think it was poor form.
No harm in him issuing an apology to the family if it cause any upset.
He didn't have to make any public gesture at all, did he? Most people wouldn't have known his brother was sent down if he didn't make the gesture. Wonder will he back it up with meaningful action like visiting him on a regular basis and supporting his family (if any) rather than stupid gestures.Quote:

He's apologised for the gesture at least:

Dam i think Liverpool have just found there form just as Everton go into a dip in form. 3 points at Sunderland but very hard found great save from howard in the last second.
I keep thinking back to that wrongly Dissaloud goal V Blackburn that would have given us a 3 point edge over liverpool.
With Utd and chelsea getting knocked out of the FA cup it now means only 5th spot will get UEFA ( i think )
Sunderland were looking for 6 wins on the bounce at home so if I was you I'd be thrilled with 3 points there.Quote:

They are rubbish we should be beating every team below us quite easily , This isnt like the season where we scrapped and scrapped a load of 1 nils to get fourth. To be serious contenders to catching up to the top 3 we have to put teams like sunderland away like the 7-1 at goodison.Quote:

You do know how good Florentina are dont you they are 4th in seria A and if Everton had played like they have been all season they would have easily beaten them. Look how good liverpool have done in the champs league and we are level with them in the league while also going on a good run in europe and a domestic cup. I definetly think they could hold there own next season
They are rubbish but not at home (they had 7 shots to your 5). And football doesn't work out like you say, with teams above beating teams below them "quite easily". We'd all soon lose interest in the game if soccer was as simple as that. Look at Wigan vs Arsenal to name but one game. I also think you overestimate the strength of the Everton team.Quote:
