Really tough opponents and missing key men

Centre midfield and defence was good but we couldn’t really lay a glove on them

We didn’t have a shot I don’t think? We didn’t put them under any pressure at all. They were shite an got soft pen to win themselves.
The commentary I watched v Chelsea said it was a routine win for them? I come on here an we played great apparently.

Pickford an Grealish we’re laughing an joking at 2 nil down v Chelsea with their players, another player did aswell I can’t remember but our senior players were, when we put it
On them at the end even their younger players mugged us off a tried to get us sent off etc.its infuriating to me.

I want Everton to always have a go, I think that’s what we’re about to me anyway.

We were shite and lucky it wasn't three or four.

Just had a look, it's no surprise that they have the best defensive record in the league. We never really looked like breaking them down today, sadly.

I thought we were shite, onions eh. I'd give Garner, Tim and Keane a pass.

Everyone else was poor. Some of the worst kicking from Pickford I've ever seen.

Injuries, AFCON etc but we're shite.

I didn’t even notice Pickfords kicking tbh….

Definitely onions…

Arsenal are clearly a class team and deserved a win. We did ok at times, no creativity.

A bit like the RS last season, they're not exceptional. They're going to win it because the bar is not very high at the moment.

Their arse is going already. City will win it at a canter.

Got it all together and I'm ready to seethe.

If I was a gambler, I'd bet ten bob Arsenal will bottle it. Worse, and I mean the absolute fooking worse case, is them cunts gaining momentum.

Nah - I know we’ve all been burned by them but they’re a bit shit.

Even today, they were getting overrun by a team with 9 whilst they had the usual 12….

City will win it i reckon, and win it a bit comfortably….

Im aware of the result Billy yes….

Just saw it and thought they looked a bit shit despite having a man advantage for over an hour, a two man advantage for nearly 20 mins, and were desperately hanging on…

Good Boom. Then you will understand why Im not writing the cunts off. Shit or not, has bad as they have been, the cunts are, slowly, climbing the table. Arsenal i would not bet on with your money. That just leaves City. Has I stated, my worst case scenario is them cunts winning it. For the record, Im NOT saying they will.

That’s my thoughts too, not good enough for me that from them tonight. Scraping past league 2 wolves was a shambles

Deffo. Arsenal looked fairly shite, to be honest.

There is no way you would bet on Arteta not to bottle it.

I suspect you’re right…

City wouldve done us by a couple more today …

Especially after the opening gift we gave them

We did really, we didn't just sit back and let them have it, tried to go toe to toe with them but we needed more from Alcaraz, Grealish and McNeil. We get that Barry decision and who knows.

It's us, not me. Fight inequality.

Defensively decent restricting them to just the one proper chance (Trossard miss).

Dire on the otherside of the ball though, Alcaraz and O'neil were particularly disappointing I thought

We never had a shot on target, mate.

2 (them) shots on target to 1 (us) apparently

Impressed by Declan Rice, a very good footballer

Rice is absolutely brilliant isn’t he…

Proper leader him.

Arsenal were pretty ordinary I thought- toughed it out I suppose.

Without Obriens intervention that had 0-0 written all over it.

They took the 'sting' out of us just when we were building a head of steam. Our midfield was a mish mash tonight. Garner, Iroegbunam were decent, Grealish and McNeil ineffective and one paced. Big Mick Keane was by far our best player.
Jake O'Brien, bad egg of the week.
