Looking forward to today’s game. Could be within 2 points of Chelsea after their dip.
Quite a bit of press for Lingard this weekend he’s had quite a few problems off the pitch he’s been pretty good last few games hope that means he’s happier at home. I like the lad but I’m in the minority!
Everton will be right up for it again though and Big Dunc has caused us more than a few problems in the past!
Come on Ole keep proving those doubters wrong.
Next 4 games will show if this lot have anything about them or whether it’s more of them raising hope by being excellent against the other top teams and then destroying that hope by being sQuite a bit of press for Lingard this weekend he’s had quite a few problems off the pitch he’s been pretty good last few games hope that means he’s happier at home.

De Gea has to be a lot more decisive than that ... flapping and turning his head away. Would not have been in the slightest surprised to see the foul given though. Good decision from VAR for once.
Absurd statement.It’s absolutely clearly a foul. There’s no possible question about it. VAR has to go.
Edited to add that even Souness says it’s an obvious foul. Just scrap the f
king thing - it’s ruining the game. Edited by ORD on Sunday 15th December 14:57
Not absurd at all. Souness suddenly flavour of the month cos he agrees with your POV - that's absurd.
My view, like yours, is not right or wrong - it's a view. The only view that matters is the ef's - and VAR in this case. This one went against you ... the dog barks and the caravan moves on, or whatever they say ...

It’s a clear foul, but so what? That’s the goal, the rest of the half we’ve been abysmal. Why focus on one incident when the rest of it is so st? Everton were always going to go physical, but if we’re not capable of breaking them down then what do we expect. The tactics are one dimensional, that being attack down the left and Everton are simply packing that area. They’ll do it even more now as they’ve got a lead to defend.
Lingard is a disgrace, we’d possibly be better off playing with 10 men. He is stealing a living, stick Greenwood on and give him a chance, as Lingard is offering absolutely nothing. Shaw is terrible and Fred pretty painful. Is Martial on the pitch? None of the others are covering themselves in glory, but the ones I’ve highlighted are painful.

It’s not a matter of opinion. It’s a foul. There’s no subjectivity involved. That’s why VAR is a joke. If it cannot correct for that, it’s pointless.

Absolute dog ste performance so far. Again. There’s something very wrong with the coaching at the club.
It’s not difficult to know what was going to happen. New manager bounce, very physical ex player now managing them. We were going to get bullied, harassed and pressed on the ball, so spread out, play the ball and try to pass them to death is the only real option, alongside taking some longer range shots. Instead we’ve tried to dribble the ball through u potential Everton players, walk the ball into the net and play fancy 1-2s. We’ve sleepwalked straight into the sort of performance Everton would have prayed for. te performance so far. Again. There’s something very wrong with the coaching at the club. ORD said:

I think everyone agrees that VAR is ste and not working. Sadly I don't think it'll get scraped, they'll probably keep tweaking it until it "works"ORD said:
