Moyes is a safe pair of hands and should be commended for making Everton hard to beat…but the handbrake needs to come off. Two points dropped against a poor Spurs side. Could’ve shown more ambitions with the subs. Large section of the fanbase clearly not happy… it’s West Ham all over again isn’t it…

michaelbrown.ifa21d ago

Nah nothing like west game thru had 25 players so could switch to a different format where as we the number we have we don’t have the different styles available

george.patten21d ago

Thing is with the lack of investment/seeningly shambolic transfer strategy - Is now the time to go for a more exciting manager, or do you take premier league safety with Moyes?

daviescallum4222d ago

Yeah it’s painful to watch sometimes, especially when we’re so early in the season. He never risks anything, and so he’ll never achieve anything with us. I’ll thank him for his services, but hope we replace in the summer

What do YOU make of our Everton player ratings vs Tottenham? 🤔

A few 5/10s expose a big problem...

chrisstafford123420d ago

Moyes should have taken Johnson off much earlier he had no impact 4 would have been an overstatement but Barry had a good game worked really hard with little support substitutions were poor spurs made five we seemed to be reluctant does not bode well for the future

anthonymanley195621d ago

I thought garner was better than a 7 he was my man of the match

ptrckbennett22d ago

Pretty bang on but I'm dropping JP to a "Lucky 5" yes he made a decent save but it was as a result of his own dicking around with the ball and dire passing! Johnson I'm giving a "3" simply because I didn't think he was on the pitch for most of the game! Barry gets another "Lucky 4" he didn't do a lot wrong it just his style game and couldn't adapt!

Fantastic numbers today from James Garner considering he still supposedly isn’t 100% fit. Bodes well!

Plenty of boos in the Tottenham majority after the full-time whilstle. Is this reasonable? 🤔

daviescallum4222d ago

Yeah I’d be fuming if I was in their position. They almost make us look well run 😂

Never a terrible point away at Spurs but you can't help but feel they were there for the taking. We just never really got going. Garner was superb though. Defence was solid although Pickford a little shaky times. We take the point and move on

daviescallum4222d ago

I’d normally agree, but not against THAT Spurs. I’m really disappointment with that result

Two games where we should be getting some points coming up, Ipswich and Hull. Can you see 6 points from them 2 games? If not, what do you think we can get 🤔

gramorris22d ago

They’re both flying atm, Hull especially. Neither are a given although we’ve not lost to either recently

daviescallum4222d ago

No chance sadly, we’re Everton 😂I reckon 1-3pts max

The unbeaten start continues... but was that two points dropped by Everton? 😬

waltonl419d ago

I really think it was 2 points dropped, although the 1st 20 mins it looked like we were going to be hammered, but as the game went on, Spurs looked like they were accepting a defeat, but sadly Moyes didn't utilize the subs! I thought we were going to score at least a goal for the 3 points, but we missed too many chances & we threw away the 2 points!

mwjpm7rntw21d ago

A very good draw. They stuffed us.

rhsmyth21d ago

Defo 2 pts lost thanks to mr negative ! Why didn,t Hackney and Grealish start ? his subs were totally ilogical and why only 3 ? Learnt nothing from last season going to burn our best players out yet again !

If you told me at the start of the day that we would get a point there I would take it. Although spurs have been poor reverently, I think a draw there is decent. Away from home as well. Push on and move forward 💯

neilpurcell321d ago

Why is everybody so excited about getting a point against spurs, for god’s sake get a grip, they’re not Barcelona, what have they done over the last 20years to frighten us, we should be going there and getting a result, look at the dead average teams that get results there every season.

🙂Add a comment…Open Discussion

O’Brien now at RB 🥴 Another example of poor summer planning. Everton FC strike again

neilpurcell321d ago

Nothing wrong with O’Brien, darn good footballer, tell me what he’s done wrong, to get negative comments, there are other players in the team who couldn’t lace his boots.

🙂Add a comment…Open Discussion

Should Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall have scored there? 🤔

Wasn’t an easy chance but yes got to take gifts like that & we never seem to

Spurs are struggling right now. So is Johnson. Should Moyes take the initiative and make a change?

neilpurcell321d ago

Dibbling will only get game time in carabou cup.

davemount1722d ago

Dibling should have started over Johnson. Played decent in preseason. Hope he plays against Wolves and has a good game

daviescallum4222d ago

I can’t believe he’s just taken George off, must be carrying a knock or Moyes wants his head rattling

Good hold up play by Barry there, decent chance. Good start to the half 💯

daviescallum4222d ago

When given a chance & support, he’s a good striker. Shame he gets men alongside him once every blue moon

Just so dire and boring, they’re there for the taking. Wonder if Moyes will take any risks second half. Get Grealish & Hackney on & go win this match

Low-quality half. There’s such an opportunity here. Need to start testing Kinsky second-half. Positive that JP hasn’t been tested himself at least

Just get it to 0-0 at half time and let the fans get on their back

Think we need to be getting a point here atleast. Need to show the standard of this squad going into the majority of the season now 💙

No indication as to what exactly it is… but Rohl injured

daviescallum4222d ago

Hope it’s nothing serious. Interested to see AMN from the off, and see what his defending his like

gomatz7722d ago

Big miss that for Everton. Warra player honestly. Love watching him, such a hard worked as well. Hope it's nothing serious

Anyone to be concerned about here? Marmoush put out wide where I think he’ll be more effective than playing as lone striker

neilpurcell322d ago

Thank you 🙏

neilpurcell322d ago

Damn, didn’t know that, cheers brogan.

neilpurcell322d ago

I do expect to see, Grealish, Hackney and Rohl make an impact later in the game.

The starting XI is out for Everton vs Spurs! What do you make of the team?

calum_jones22d ago

Hackneys performance against Man U deserved to be credited, a start today certainly certifies that 💯

calum_jones22d ago

Grealish is not starting is strange, does anyone know if it’s due to injury or something? If not, weird decision

calum_jones22d ago

I’m happy that AMN is starting personally, deserved it after the goal last week.

Jack IS ready to start vs Spurs 🤩

ptrckbennett23d ago

A part of me would like to see Rohl slotting in somewhere but as strange as this sounds I just can't find a place for him 🤔

kmm.mace23d ago

Mmm. Still not sure on that one Brogan. I',d like to see the pacey players on first to run the backs ragged. Then bring on Jack to get the job done. But, always happy to be proved wrong if it works for the Blueboys!! 💙 UTFT

Moyes' press conference today at 13:30. I'm strangely confident before this game and I have no idea why cos we usually never show up at Spurs. Terrible record down there 🥴

We've named the XI we'd like to see from Everton against Spurs, but what does yours look like?

michaelhughes321d ago

I’d be tempted to give Johnson a try up front, George to swap wings and bring Grealish in on the left

My best 11, Pickford, mainland-Nile’s, O’Brien, branthwaite, mykolenko, garner, Hackney, Grealish, dewsbury-hall, George, Barry.

How confident are you feeling ahead of Saturday after the first three games? 🔥

Spurs are yet to even score a goal...

williamsdave95923d ago

Have to agree with him what's the point of being negative it gets you nowhere well said KDH

jimstarkcowden23d ago

I would be happy with a point but a win could be achieved if the side can convert a couple of the chances which which will be created.

del_kath23d ago

Good Feeling ahead of today's fixture, a lot depends on injuries, or at least avoiding them, but great to have selection headaches for a change !

Very poor performance gave away the ball to easy sometimes you wonder why go after players and then they never play Moyes always sticks with same week in week out.

brogan132d ago

There was absolutely nothing to the performance, it was absolutely embarrassing. How he has gone the full season with O'Brien at right-back is incredible

I thought sleeping on it would help but it only made it worse! I've been a Toffee since before I was born I think, through the good times and the bad and everything in between, I was there in 95 when we showed the Mancs how to win a cup "Dogs of War" style. Jeez the memories and stories are unreal and yet here we are, I've been disappointed, frustrated...

ptrckbennett132d ago

I've been pissed off, proud, shocked both happily and sadly, you name it I've been through it as we all have but never ever have I been the way I am today, never ever have I looked to the season gone by and the one yet to come with such a hopeless feeling, never ever has the dream or hope gone away and most importantly never ever have I been so bloody ANGRY

I really don't blame Illy or wonder why he's seemingly dropped off in form... if you were his age with his talent and gaining more and more attention and a WC coming up to attract even more interest are you going to risk injury or run yourself into the ground for the way we are playing for too long now???

tom.procter133d ago

The only thing he should have been thinking about is giving 100% every single game for Everton Football Club. I would certainly hope these things haven't been factors behind his poor performances for several weeks now
