• Tough marker Harry! I thought Mykolenko did pretty well most of the game and same for Harrison. The player who made the difference for me was Hackney. He looks a great signing. ...
  Frank Wolfe in Everton player ratings vs Manchester United: George shines but deadline-day signing steals the show
• I do agree that some poor decisions doesn’t necessarily automatically translate to TFG being soul-sucking asset strippers, and so too many people are rushing to judgement.rnrnHowever, there needs to be some accounting for a transfer window that ultimately failed. I know it can’t be simply ignored but an obsession with trimming the fat to the nth degree on every deal has to be balanced with making sure we don’t miss out on key players. Likewise, does it rationally always need to be selling to buy. There may be concerns about being left needing to do a fire sale to avoid some sanctions but if the investment actually delivers then surely what you then need to recoup will have been reduced?rnrnI don’t like the threadbare squad, but hopefully lessons have been learnt and the club will end up stronger in the longer term because of it.rn...
  Si Cooper in Laying all the blame on the Friedkins is just plain wrong
• Thought Armstrong deserved better than a 6, done extremely well v a very good midfielder, and on a yellow.rnrnMyklenko also deserved better.rnrnCentre backs deserved there decnt marks despite Braithwaite being poor for there first goal, tarks for the second, but mostly they both played well.rnrn...
  Anthony Dwyer in Everton player ratings vs Manchester United: George shines but deadline-day signing steals the show
• Oh and the transfer window debacle was quickly forgotten about, no protests or disgruntlement today, and don’t spend a pound in the ground didn’t resonate either so TFG got off lightly, not that they were arsed anyway....
  Jeff Armstrong in David Moyes hails Maitland-Niles goal as ‘big moment’ for Everton after late Man Utd drama
• So no one is arsed about people starting to leave at 78 minutes and the ground being only 65% full at 90 with us chasing the game?? It’s far more concerning that people drift back from half time than the fact they f*** off before the end to catch “songs of praise” or whatever else they’re leaving for....
  Jeff Armstrong in David Moyes hails Maitland-Niles goal as ‘big moment’ for Everton after late Man Utd drama
• Positives were George, Armstrong, Branthwaite, with Grealish and Hackney adding something different when they came on. rnI don’t see Rohl as a full back personally tho I suspect Moyes will persevere for a bit, and he wasn’t helped today by Johnson who didn’t track back and left him exposed first half. I didn’t think Johnson gave us much, rarely in the game, can’t beat a man. Surprised he came out 2nd half. rnWould have been sensible to make the Garner/ Hackney switch far earlier. rnMoyes post match talked about using all the squad but it still feels he’ll have to be dragged kicking and screaming to do so, except the Cup probably. ...
