They have too much quality to be relegated. They were poor first half but there were periods in the second when they looked good.
Definitely an off night, way too much class to be drawn into a dog fight. A think we just made it hard for them, the first half they didn't stand a chance in the air against Mawson and Roberts
Agree with Mario...fell in to the trap of coasting early on, dropped in the s**t but managed to sort it...albeit it with a bit of luck from a Reece Wabara unfortunate assist for the first goal and an own goal.
They'll finish top 7. It's a mental thing a lot of the time. As well as a dodgy goalie, kid at RB, barely fit left back, out of favour Besic & McGeady. You could see their class when Barkley & Delofeoou came on & they probably had a bollocking to go with it at half time
I thought from the minute the second half kicked off, Everton showed class and character all over the pitch. The fact that we kept up with them for as long as we did, was brilliant. It was one of the most open games I have ever seen, but they have some quality players. I'd be amazed if they were anywhere near the relegation zone.
As soon as I saw Cleverley at RB, Barkley in the centre of a midfield 4 & two out & out wingers starting the second half I knew we'd get one hell of a great 2nd half.
We sat in the pub with an Everton fan, and his analysis was their keeper is not up to the job. At one stage we had three shots on target and all three resulted in goals. Lets be honest our first two had an element of luck about them. But still with stats like that, Everton could have an issue they need to address.
