Everton were playing 7-2-1 but now they are taking off Saha to really make Cryuff proud.

rooney prob deserves to be held in a bit higher esteem in the uk. i mean obv around here everyone rates him as world class but you turn on the tv and people are acting as if he's some bludgeoning sub-kuyt figure.

can't say we haven't deserved this beating, btw, but i feel like 4-2 wd be a slightly fairer reflection of the match

They just replayed RVP's celebration. He runs to the bench and celebrates with the subs, but it's like Wenger did a reverse AVB by fleeing the scene

Staking a claim as the best of the teams with a negative goal differential. Woohoo.

FourFourTwo look pretty stupid for only putting Rooney at six in their list now. Phil Jones should have been top five as well

Arsenal. Played well enough, but jeez they squander a lot. Gervinho is useful because fast, but makes Walcott look ruthless. Song was fine but this was no masterclass. Rvp had an unremarkable day. Ramsey's good, he spots things early. The defence looked pretty poor, when Everton did solidify second half they were under pressure *a lot*.
What a goal though. I spend most of my time cursing people for not seeing passes straight away, not taking chances early & wasting them. I felt vindicated to see rvp do just that.
Everton. A little bit unfortunate to lose. Fellaini their best player by a distance, he knits everything together for them, has most composure, most vision, everything. When Saha went off and he went up front he was their best forward too. He's a bit Zidaney, actually. Cahill's good for what he is, very sticky. Baines and Coleman are decent though Coleman looks slow and I'd be working hard on his speed off the mark if I were his coach.
They're all decent really, but I'd fear for them without Fellaini, they'd be a side who could go down in a bad year.
They also brought on two lads whom I'd never heard of, Gueye and McAleny, both of whom showed a bit of spark.
Ground's nice if atmosphere-lite, but the queues for drinks were long and I could really have used a bovril today.
― Ismael Klata, Saturday, 10 December 2011 18:14 (twelve years ago) link
tbh i always thought of zidane as a proto-fellaini
― nakhchivan, Saturday, 10 December 2011 18:16 (twelve years ago) link
IK, you are right about Fellaini, he was by far the best Everton player. I was really underwhelmed by their defending attitude, but thinking about it again, I just don't think Everton can do any better.
― lebateauivre, Saturday, 10 December 2011 19:11 (twelve years ago) link
Damn, RVP's goal was magnificent.
― Number None, Saturday, 10 December 2011 19:16 (twelve years ago) link
It's funny, but when Everton took Saha off and replaced him with Distin they suddenly began matching Arsenal. They'd been defensive 'til then, but by pushing Fellaini from a Lucas role to an Adebayor role they became far more threatening. Maybe simply because Fellaini can win and hold the ball - Saha did nothing.

i am but i only at 2 in the morning, liveblogging wrestling, so this isn't me.
tbh he didn't do much today. well except the ball for rvi for the goal.
i agree about fellaini. he's a remarkably odd player tho, 'adebayor as a defensive midfielder'. i think the only place he wld suit, if he were to make the step up, wld be united.
