Felt a bit bad for him in that Manquillo was crap and we kept trying to force it down Maxi's side for the first half. The booking was harsh as well, looked like he slipped rather than any intent. Won't have done him any harm tonight though. If we sign someone in Jan he's surely ripe for a half decent Championship side on loan.

Hate that stutter run up, still haven't forgiven that dickhead Rashford for trying it in the Euro final. His energy and desire to inject some creativity and urgency into the side as sub was so refreshing though. A proper player despite the pen.

Can't be arsed doing match ratings but Targett, Manquillo & (particularly) Maxi were bloody dreadful with the ball tonight. Anderson a non-event too although we didn't play down the right too much. Most of the others put a canny shift in, it just lacked quality and you could see a lot of them were rusty. Tripps and Bruno really lifted it when they were introduced and what a hero Pope is for getting us through the tie. A year or two ago we lose that tie 0-1, absolutely nailed on. It's pleasing that if we aren't firing going forwards we look absolutely comfortable as fuck at the back even with the changes we made.

He's fucking brilliant like.

Best thing he did tonight was stay the fuck away from the penalties. An absolute disgrace.

Gordon booked for Everton for a two-footed tackle the horrid little cunt.

Gordon & Stacey card double 40/1 Got a few btts and corner dabbles on tonight, small stakes.

great thread that.

Had the over 0 first half cards each & over 3 in total each in the Rayo/Madrid game. Thought it was gonna be another near miss til the two late ones for Rayo landed. 16/1

Would like to see Anderson and Maxi start this. Otherwise hope Eddie doesn't tinker too much. Targett and Wood probably sensible choices for a start, maybe Fraser. Expect we'll see Lascelles unfortunately.

https://www.thenorthernecho.co.uk/news/23103775.pictures-show-damage-car-smashes-wynyard-co-op/ Rewmours abound that this was the handiwork of an ex Sunlin player - the one who was a better signing than Wilson the summer we got him. (allegedly etc)

Good few Mowbray Out threads despite him being in post about 2 months and missing the fabled Ross Stewart. I thought it was only mags who hounded out managers?

Vote for the Fulham one imo

Hope Ant and Dec make reference to "the toughest ball since Kevin was in your midfield" as she's chewing away at a kangaroo testicle.

She'll have been used to teetering on the edge and plummeting being a Sunlin fan. Surprised she didn't start beeeeewing the other two seeing as they're both black.

We've just spent extremely well is all. Look at when Everton went and spent in the 2017/18 season: Sigurdsson £40m Klaassen £25m (7 appearances ) Pickford £30m M Keane £25m Sandro Martinez £5m Vlasic £8m Onyekuru £7m Bowler £2m Gibson £1m Tosun £27m (Jan) Walcott £20m (Jan) (Plus a bunch of other "undisclosed" fees for youngsters, as well as wages for Rooney who came on a free.) At least £190m there, probably £200m plus purely in transfer fees with the other handful of undisclosed youngsters. Nobody bats an eyelid or mentions that expenditure because it's extremely poor and Koeman made an arse of it - it's an extremely similar amount as what we've spent across two windows and suddenly we've spent our way into 3rd place. Proper lazy journalism and even when you point out the fact that 5-6 of the regular starting team were pre-takeover buys the "spending" rhetoric still flies about.

I thought he was excellent again today, our best player in the first half and although he faded a little second half, other stepped up to the mark by then. Whatever people think about him he's an important part of what is an incredibly well functioning side at the minute. Long may he continue to play this well.

That's fucking bullshit. Should be a pen. Scouse cunts.

We're absolutely fucking clinical like. What a pass from Tripps btw

Pleased for him, lovely finish. Shame we can't go to St Mary's every week. Shades of Daryl Murphy v Fulham (h) there.

What a finish that is.

Great goal.

Ben White assist at 22/1 with PP also handy. 2.50 on

Saka and Martinelli 2+ SOT each 28/1
