We've been stringing together some really nice moves. Amazing what a difference low expectations can make for the team... I'm still nervous as hell everytime they get into our half though
Nasty looking cut to Pearce's eye there, hopefully he'll be alright but there was a fair amount of blood very quickly
Obviously this is a one off cup game, but I'm starting to think 5 in midfield suits us. Especially with McCormack out at the moment. Two wide players with Becchio through the middle looks like it suits us! Shame we don't have that Howson-esque midfielder just in behind...
I was sure it was in! Think Everton are going to come out a different side after half time though, we could've done with a second really...
White playing very well. And egg is officially placed on the faces of the Diouf haters, what a ****ing signing!
I challenge anyone to honestly not want us to progress now after that first half performance... Glad Diouf will be playing towards the home fans second half, for a moment I thought he might lose it towards the end of the half.
Let's see what happens when Moyes starts throwing players like Jelavic on... Fantastic first half performance from us, and even as a card carrying Diouf opposer I can't deny how good he has been for us in the last few games, and he's running the game tonight with White
About time Colin realised that for league games he needs to play Brown at DM with Austin just in front. Been banging on about this for ages, but he only does it for cup games
Didn't know you'd said it, but I agree with this so much. Only thing lacking is a third midfielder with some creativity there. Tonge will have to do for now
Yep, totally agree with this, we've looked a lot more robust in defence with Brown and Austin in the middle. As long as they keep their heads and don't get carried away I guess!
