Sorry, everyone, I jinxed it.

A bad day at the office in all departments. Let’s put it behind us and move on to the next one.

Forest next Sunday is a proper 6 pointer.

Forest’s mobile midfield will pull us apart

Yeah it’s not going to be easy. But we beat them away in November and they just lost to Fulham so it’s doable.

Win that and we’re only three points behind them.

Feel like we're sliding into a rut, exactly same form pattern as before the final we lost to United. Why does this keep happening?

Let’s see where we’re at next Sunday before calling it a rut.

Sure, we didn’t turn up today. But Man City just spent £180m in January and we… got rid of Kelly and Almiron.

Beto has become a top slotter since Moyes joined

If Everton win here, they go above United and spurs

Probably won't win but if we do it will be 13 points from a possible 15 in the last 5 matches, title form lol

Right after the break lol

I don't think I ever saw Moyes improve a forward ever in my time following Everton, yet somehow he's got Beto scoring. Moyes is so under rated for what he can do for sides like Everton and West ham.

Moyes is a class act, always liked him.

Tbf they're far bigger than Spurs.

Think this could be Howe’s last season if we don’t get Europe, no shame in finishing behind city, Liverpool or arsenal, but I don’t think the board will accept finishing behind Forest or Bournemouth.

 

[Vandle]

I didn’t expect a win but expected a better showing than that. Finding a bit of form in the run up to the cup final is crucial, some very tough games in there. Liverpool are more than capable of doing what city did to us in a week or so time. If they do then we might as well not show up at Wembley!

There’s a team hovering around them that could do with a Moyes

I wasn't sold on him coming back when Dyche was sacked but something just feels right about it.

 

[ThundyCat]

Great result for Everton.

In Moyes we trust.

I read something on X today. It sounds ridiculous and personally I think it’s a load of crap, but apparently, due to child protection laws or the like, Nwaneri is not allowed to get changed in the same room as his Senior teammates. Surely we’ve not got that crazy?

'Due to FA safeguarding regulations, players under the age of 18 are not allowed in the senior dressing room. As a result, Nwaneri must get changed separately before joining his team-mates for final preparations before kick-off.'

Can’t confirm but I know they do something similar for the academy women.

If they’re playing at the emirates that changing room is a no go zone I’ve heard.

You're 100% a bluenose.
