The Prophet

They've had an odd start to the season. Beat City, draws with Arsenal and Liverpool, but defeat to West Brom and the surrender of a two goal lead against Brum.

Still fancy 1-1 like.

West Ham, West Brom and Wigan picking up points, meh.

Fuck off you Brummie twats.

More of the same from them. Some great moves and decent build up play but no end product.

Textbook Everton so far, all fart no shit.

Brum Forest QPR Peterborough Not expecting much, had a rough couple of weeks on the betting front.

Play the side that knocked Chelsea out. They deserve it.

If we win on Sunday the Blackpool result will be a blot on what has been an excellent start to the season.

Krul in for Harper should be the only change from Saturday.

Krul 6 - Recovered really well after the initial error. Taylor 6 - Class from the dead ball, alright overall. Cambell 5 - Slow, contributed to the opener too. Colo 8 - Quality. Fergson 8 - Well played lad, didnt put a foot wrong and put some cracking deliveries into the box. Ranger 6 - Has a mixed bag but he was always a threat in the air. Smith 3 - f***ing awful. Vuckic 7 - Thought he looked sharp without being spectacular. Good ball retention. Jonas 6 - Lacked quality at times but put a decent shift in. Shola 9 - Class. His opener was sensational. He always looked a threat, could and should of had a hattrick. Lovenkrands 4 - Who? Were we not playing with ten men? Tiote and Williamson 6 - Unlucky with the penalty. Tiote did well in a square peg in round hole position. Edit: In hindsight I was harsh on Taylor.

Nah, Arsenal away nailed on in the next round. In all seriousness though I think the lads that did the buisness tonight deserve a another bash.

It’s a fourth rate competition and ceased being worth anything when Boro lifted the trophy. Stick with the second string CH. Bullshit. I'd f***ing love to win it, even if it's partly to get the trophy monkey off our backs. Exactly. If we won it there would be loads of ‘any old s*** will do as long as it’s a trophy’ types celebrating like we’d won the Champions League, which would be really embarrassing for those of us who still think NUFC is a proper club not some micky mouse outfit. You'd turn down a trophy and European football? Are you off your tits?

1-1 A win would round of a fucking spectacular week for the club.

The same side that won tonight should get their chance in the next round too. Well for me they should.

Just picking up on what the commentator said there, bar one result our start to the season has been pretty dreamy. Holy shit it just got better.

Oh aye his communication was superb.

First ten minutes highlights why Krul, Taylor and Ranger shouldn't be near the first team really.

Aye Krul is ready for first team football...

Shambolic stuff.

Merson is alright, a six hour show wouldn't work without the banter. Windass is down there with Ian Wright in the 'what were they thinking putting these clowns on TV' group. Can't be doing with either of them. I'm trying not to comment because Merson gets me shaking with rage, useless twat.

People such as Windass and Merson are fine, fine pundits. Best commentry team around is Sky cricket team, good banter, all have an insightful knowledge of the game, great stuff.

Great start to the season but still can't help but think 'what if' in terms of the Blackpool result.

Cahill is a limited player. Arteta and Pinaar usually run the show for Everton.
