Everton 3-1 Larissa – Toffees Welcome Cahill Home.

David Moyes’ disgust with derby referee Mark Clattenberg is so all consuming that you wouldn’t put it past the Scot to take out television adverts warning against the biased ref. Before yesterday’s game Moyes used his team’s UEFA cup press conference to slate Clattenberg, and then even added some extra bile into his programme notes about the referee. Everton’s 3-1 win against Larissa then, couldn’t have come at a more opportune time. This game had everything you would expect from the unpredictable and unsettled mix that is the Everton squad. Arteta was as always fabulous, playing football in a similar manner to Napoleon playing Risk, and Lescott (although caught...

Everton 1-2 Liverpool – Finally Time For Hibbert To Go?

October 20, 2007
By

The only thing that today’s referre Mark Clattenberg and I can agree about is that Tony Hibbert, so poor this season, doesn’t deserve to be on the Goodison Park pitch. Clattenberg sent off Hibbert for his foul on Gerrard, the subsequent penalty being despatched by Kuyt, who got another in the last minute, from yet another penalty – this time conceded by Phil Neville – caught with his hands in the biscuit tin – diving to save a certain Liverpool goal. And the game started off so well, Hyppia scoring a wonder own-goal which we all thought would exorcise the ghost of Sandy Brown – alas , it wasn’t...

Everton's Yakubu – Should we have just kept Beattie?

October 18, 2007
By

Yakubu, so far, in my mind at least, a royal waste of money, two flat track bully goals, and the general contribution of a slug on ketamine, coupled with better, harder working youngsters breathing down his very large neck like Anichebe and Vaughan. And why oh why did we spend so much on him – we should have just doubled our bid for Lucho Gonzales rather than buying this mope from Middlesbrough. The consensus amongst most of the ‘Boro fans I spoke to during our usual Scrooge-esque dealings with them was that they should take the money and run, and good for them. What rankles even more is the...

Cahill Is One Of Many Reasons Why Everton Can Beat Liverpool

October 18, 2007
By

Whilst bearded goon Rafa Benitez is weeping to all and sundry about his team’s lack of form, Everton are calmly preparing for Saturday’s game at Goodison and have been given a timely boost by the return of Tim Cahill. Whilst Rafa and his entourage are followed by a swirl of rotation controversy wherever they go, Everton have never even had the luxury of rotation, up until now that is.Boxing ‘Roo Cahill’s return has given David Moyes an unusual treat, a selection dilemma in midfield! Moyes chirped: “Tim started training on Monday and we are pleased to have him back..There is no doubt we have missed him since he’s been...

Phil Jagielka: Footballing Swiss Army Knife

Phil Jagielka: Footballing Swiss Army Knife

We did it! After stalking his quarry for an inordinate amount of time – the Moyesiah has finally snared Phil Jagielka, the man that the Guardian wittily describes as a “footballing Swiss Army Knife”. Phil can play all along the back four, in midfield, and even in goal (thus giving Moyes the possibility of playing no goalie on the bench like Warnock did on numerous occasions.) The crucial element of the Jagielka signing is that Moyes refused to be rushed, waited patiently until Sheffield Utd’s relegation was confirmed (and the 4mil release clause was activated), and swooped; signing him on OUR terms. Jagielka is an Evertonian, already refers to...
