Absolutely thuggish. Boring, shit and brutish.

Nice we've not given them another three points, but they were bloody awful, on a par with Palace.
Felt massively confident pre match, seeing Fati and Enciso in the squad alone was a massive boost. A game to forget though, take the point, move on knowing we will have a potent attacking threat with previously absent players coming back.

Disappointed that we only got a point but happy we did. Feels like a win to score that late with 10 men

Your heart is cold and your soul is darkMaybe I wasn’t wrong but I feel nothing for that goal - sorry Dunkie - too little too late.

It’s frustrating, but come on. Remember where we’ve come from. If you’re unable to enjoy a last gasp equalizer in the premier league…that’s sad. We’re not entitled to roll teams over, even if we are the better footballing team. I know this kind of result is common, but so are some of the emphatic wins. Enjoy it while it lasts because one day we’ll be the ones struggling for wins again!Maybe I wasn’t wrong but I feel nothing for that goal - sorry Dunkie - too little too late.

I think he will be suspended for FA cup and two league games (unless I have forgotten the rules)
In his own, stupid, irritating, boring way... he's not bad I suppose

The bright spot out of that is that Everton will feel they absolutely messed up a great opportunity to get three points. Can imagine Dyche, Pickford and Dumbo being furious.
We didn’t drop two points today.
We didn’t obviously deserve the win as we didn’t create many clear cut opportunities.
We are losing in the 94th minute and down to ten men and got a point.

That is a good point and they did well to battle back against those massive lumps. Disagree with Warren saying 'why did we wait to increase the urgency when we went behind bla bla'. Everton sat back which helped as well.
We have to be more clinical against Dyche teams. Welbeck has to do better, Adingra had to make more of the space he created earlier, Buonanotte needs to make the right decision - you don't get many opportunities or spaces playing at home against a Dyche team. Our two most dangerous moments were typically through Pascal once more. He found a pocket of space in the second half and we had to score that and didn't. They go up the otehr end and score a great strike of a goal. Then, Pascals deleivery enables Dunky to score a great header.
We needed more from Fati and Pervis when they came on. We just seem to go through the motions during these games at times.
Shame about Billy. Only seen it once and looks soft but can't really argue with a red. He will be missed but will be fresh for Europe.

You talk some shit sometimes mate. But other times when i read your essays they are really interesting war & Peace is often a shorter readMaybe I wasn’t wrong but I feel nothing for that goal - sorry Dunkie - too little too late.
Cheer up all. Lovely pic of the Dunky equaliser on the BBC website. Great caption competition for Van Hecke's smiling face even before ball is in....what would he have said with his laid-back, understated Dutch accent?....https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/68324367

Thought we were poor collectively today, but did well to rescue a point with ten men after looking so toothless all game.
We had a great number of shots on goal which pad the stats somewhat, but very few quality chances. We looked shaky at the back and had an off day going forward.
Ferguson needs to up his game; we would definitely benefit from another outright striker option in the summer (who wouldn’t!) because when we start both Welbeck and Ferguson together, there are zero options to lead the line available on the bench.
Dreadful foul for the red card - blatant red all day long and a really nasty one. You see them so often, a player frustrated at themselves for mis controlling a pass, getting red mist and going over the ball. Awful challenge, no complaints.
Thought the referee had a very good game. Comments about a second yellow for Tarkovski are wide of the mark - it would have been extremely harsh to give a second yellow for such an innocuous foul.
Dyche certainly “has our number” to some extent and it was almost a perfect smash and grab from them. Glad to see the back of them for another season.
One to forget, but still a point in the bag. Going to really miss Gilmour for three games.

Imagine being an Everton fan having to watch that week after week. Hoof ball, foul, time waste, moan at ref, foul again, & repeat. It might occasionally get them a result here and there, but that’s such a piss poor way to approach football when you’ve got fans paying decent money to be entertained.
