Fellaini and Osman, on their day, can win us matches. No doubt about that. They dominated the midfield last night - Osman in particular made their players look like fools on a number of occasions. Fellaini just dominated like the beast he is. Cahill gave his best performance of the season IMO and Jelavic was tremendous up front, despite missing a one on one. This was all without Pienaar and Drenthe, too.

 

You see performances like that and you wonder how we can play so shit for such long chunks of the season, year after year. It's bloody frustrating because we have the players available to play some very nice football, as shown last night.

If only you could play Sunderland every week :pow:

Saw a few lads leaving at half time. I left on 90 for the first time this season as my son was crying. If we'd stayed I'd have started too

 

Probably less to do with the football and more to do with the bloke standing next to them that was selling lollypops and sticking his finger up the kids arse.

Fellaini was the best player over the two legs, Osman MOTM by far last night, really impressive.  Didn't Wilshere liken him to Iniesta?  Ok so he's not quite as good  :lol: but I can see the comparison. 

 

TBF, your whole team looked quality.  Heitinga and Distin were rock solid in both games, your midfield was decent, they dominated and now you've added a goalscorer.  I even thought Gibson was alright, which is strange as I always thought he was a long shot specialist and nowt more at Man U.  Bit like one of the mackems last night  :whistle:

 

Gueye was impressive and all.  Him and Velios tore our reserves apart a while back and looked good on the highlights.

 

Always had a soft spot for Everton due to one of my closest mates supporting them and maybe to do with the fact they have been trolling sunderland since 2001.  Shame I now want liverpool to win the semi  :undecided: can't believe there will be two games, barring sunderland where I want liverpool to actually win  :huff:

 

How have we got ourselves into this situation!

Can't wait for O'Neil to set the transfer window alight man. You just know he'd waste half of the budget on some limited huge fucks to play in defence (even though they have plenty of cover there) and the other half on Kevin Davies and Cameron Jerome or some other hopeless wasters.

 

The thing for Sunderland fans to be worried about is that he needs to buy strikers, and he's fucking disastrous at spotting them.

 

When we were needing goals to push on and try to break the top four, his idea of striker purchases was Marlon Fucking Harewood, and then Emile Fucking Heskey.

 

The only reason he got Carew in (who did well) was because Lyon rang up and offered him for Baros.

 

I absolutely guarantee you, he'll sign some really shite UK based striker (doesn't shop abroad - bought about 30 players at Villa, 2 of whom were playing outside the UK, one of those was a rookie keeper, and the other was Carew), and the Sunderland fans will start back tracking along the lines of "well, Harewood has been shit everywhere else, but I only really care what he does in a Sunderland shirt".

 

I also flag up now the availability of Emile Shitting Heskey on a free transfer this summer. If I were a Sunderland fan, I wouldn't be excited about the transfer window, I'd be shitting my pants.

From a thread on RTG about next season, provided by our very own Wireside;

 

I'm looking forward to next season, think it promises to be our best one for a while.

 

Err...wasn't that meant to be this season? :yao:

 

Tbf, it is. :lol:

He he, nice to see the standard Mackem response today is 'well at least we got further than Newcastle' or 'Who did Newcastle play last night?'

 

Because of course, that's what really matters when both clubs are knocked out.

The confidence oozing from the mackems I work with yesterday was unbelievable, as far as they were concerned a place in the semi-finals was guaranteed after the final whistle at Goodison a week or so ago! Wouldn't usually give a toss about the demise of that lot but after the shite I had to deal with yesterday today is actually a good day, cheers lads, have a long productive day at work while I relax outdoors with a chilled pint or two!

Oh? In that case, this summer is going to be fun, I really hope O'Neill gives Emile the call!

'What the game needed was someone to go in hard in the opening minutes and show them the kind of game it was going to be'

 

Oh Lee, you let them down.

 

 

some mackem slut on the phone now, 'Vaughan could have kicked it out or headed it out, no-one was there'.  Would have killed to have seen him head that out, considering it was on the bloody deck.

Assume there will be an FA charge for failure to control their players after that ridiculous skirmish following the shoulder charge from Neville on Larrson.  Catermole ran the length of the pitch to have a go closely followed by Bardsley who would not let it go....

 

 

Twice in a month?  Classy fuckers!

As expected the local TV sports presenters very soft and "touchy feely" about Marty and their woeful display.

If he's supposed to be a top manager why did he not do anything to change the pattern of the game ?  It was obvious to anyone watching that within 10 minutes Everton were in total control. O'Neill spends the next 80 minutes doing his trademark jack-in-the-box stuff but seemed totally incapable of doing anything to affect the outcome.

As posted earlier I watched the full game and still have no idea what Sunderland's shape or game plan was meant to be.

Watching his post match interview I'm not certain he knew either.
