Everton

Comiserations/congratulations Toffeeman.

conflicted much?

11 goals in three games and 3 clean sheets, we play Pompey on Saturday night so hope we can carry on our winning ways

YAK! good to see him back. bring on pompey

I think we're certainly back to almost our best although we need to transfer that form in to the Prem League.

Gidday Lads, Just found you fellas - theres a few loyal Toffees around the traps. Im a Kiwi but suppported them for 34 years now. New signings appear to be mixing in OK and good to be scoring goals again. Toffeeman you would have had a hard time midweek with the Tigs getting thumped. COYB!

We are the form team of the league, let's smash Pompey.

lol tell that to chelsea?

OK.

Dear Chelsea,

we're the form team at the moment,

so you lot can go f**k yourselves.

Regards,

Everton "The People's Club" FC.

   

TEAMS Portsmouth v Everton
Portsmouth: James, Vanden Borre, Kaboul, Wilson, Ben-Haim, Mokoena, Brown, O'Hara, Boateng, Smith, Dindane. Subs: Begovic, Mullins, Williamson, Webber, Kanu, Yebda, Belhadj.
Everton: Howard, Heitinga, Yobo, Distin, Baines, Osman, Fellaini, Rodwell, Pienaar, Cahill, Saha. Subs: Nash, Hibbert, Bilyaletdinov, Jo, Gosling, Yakubu, Neill.

One nil win. Not as dominating as I would have liked but 3 points and a clean sheet is decent. Loius scoring. Replay on now.

Glad to get the points, Pompey were mad up for it!

We've got Tim Howard and he says f**k you 

That shoulder block he did looked straight out of the NHL!

LOL, yeah, just randomly too. Gotta love a keeper with tourets(?sp).

Hows everyone feel about drawing Spurs away in the League Cup?? Good test but were up for it.

Yeah, tough game as Spurs are playing well this season. I think well lose this so we can focus on the league and going one better in the FA Cup.

Another great win in Europe against BATE Borislov. Manny F and Timmy C scoring. Hibbo played very well. Good to see him regaining his form. Baines had a top game too.

Loving the headline on F365: paulm2009-10-02 20:25:25

A teenage Premier League footballer has been arrested on suspicion of possessing cannabis and fake money.

Jose Baxter, 17, made his professional debut for Everton last season, becoming the youngest player ever to appear for the club's first team.

The forward, from Bootle, was arrested with two men, aged 29 and 34, in the Kirkby area of Merseyside on Monday.

They have since been released on bail by Merseyside Police. Everton Football Club refused to comment.

A police spokesman said: "Three men have been arrested in Kirkby on suspicion of possession of cannabis with intent to supply and possession of counterfeit money.

"All three men have been released on police bail pending further inquiries."

This season the footballer has represented the team twice in the Europa League.

In March Mr Baxter signed a new two-and-a-half-year contract at Goodison Park.

He turned 17 in February and broke James Vaughan's record as the club's youngest first-team player when he made his debut against Blackburn in August 2008 at the age of 16 years and 191 days.

 

 

Belgium ask FIFA to ban Fellaini for Everton game

Belgium have asked FIFA to prevent Marouane Fellaini from playing for Everton this weekend after the midfielder pulled out of their clash with Estonia on Wednesday because of surgery he needed on his wisdom teeth.

Everton believed that there was an agreement in place that if the midfielder played against Turkey at the weekend - he would be free to miss the match with Estonia. But the Belgian FA (KBVB) have insisted that Fellaini did not have coach Dick Advocaat's permission to miss the match on Wednesday, and as such they have asked FIFA to apply their five-day rule.

Under FIFA regulations - should a player miss an international fixture after being called up, and he does not have the permission of that country to do so - then he will be banned from playing any match for the next five days. That would mean that Fellaini could not play until next week - ruling him out of Everton's clash with Wolves.

"Fellaini is called for the match with Estonia. If he decides not to come, he knows the consequences," Belgium FA's director general Jean-Marie Phillips confirmed to De Standaard. "Mr Advocaat has asked that the FIFA regulations strictly apply and therefore Marouane may not play this weekend with Everton.

"The coach has talked with Fellaini, but I do not know what he said - I would imagine that he tried to convince him that the operation could be done another time - but he obviously did not succeed.

"I am happy that everyone around the Red Devils are on the same wave-length, but if FIFA decides in Everton's favour we will accept that."

Everton, though, insist that Fellaini will be free to face Wolves at the weekend.

"We released Marouane for both games and have complied with all our obligations," Everton spokesman Ian Ross said. "He had an understanding with the manager that if he played on Saturday, he'd be released from the Wednesday game. The manager appears to have changed his mind.

"But this is a personal dispute between the player and the coach. Everton's nothing to blame and in our view there is nothing that can prevent Marouane from playing on Saturday against Wolverhampton. "

Average result against Wolves. The manner in which Doyles goal was conceded was very sloppy. Bilyaletinov looks like a good signing so far; he performed well in the match

Dont like seeing games like that... just turned it off going to do some gardening or something.. anything to make me forget

Is it too early to drink?

Turned off at 4-0. f**king hell, Everton. David Moyes - "We just really don't want to lose". Uh huh.

By the looks of it the team had had a few before the game :-(

Why did Moyes put out a 442, wouldn't have a 451 been better!

I think is was becuase we only had 11 fit players and 2 were strikers.
