Brilliant by Moreno that.

 

[ILD]

Stream is perfect though. Shame about Phil Neville in studio.

 

[KopRed]

Solanke's done nothing so far.

 

[FoxForceFive]

We look disjointed, but they're doing all the running &


Hahaha. Mane!

Apart from that assist....

 

[Ryan]

1-0, mane.

 

[Cerberus]

Excellent assist from frankie

 

[KopRed]

Nice ball by Solanke and Mane 1-0.

 

[tombrown]

Mane Mane Mane

 

[Modo]

Get in

 

[Ryan]

Super super play from Solanke.

 

[KopRed]

Apart from that assist....

I'm gonna try that again in 15 mins or so..

 

[Mystic]

Fair play Firmino, could nick that and risk the offside, but played it safe and unselfish.

 

[Brizzle]

Boom! Great combination down the right and beautiful finish.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Fuck. Everton have a pen 1 nil Rooney on the rebound. Cunt.

 

[Mystic]

Super super play from Solanke.

I was ready to hurl a torrent of abuse for him stopping what looked like a ball destined for Firmino / Mane, but the following assist was superb.

 

[Ryan]

Gomez really is a huge talent. There's a 10-year top level defender there.

Frankie is the real deal. He's gonna be a star that lad.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Yep. A year or two at full back & he'll be a phenomenonal centre back when that experience he's gained gels with his talent.

 

[KopRed]

We need to press on. We are getting all scrappy in possession after the goal.

I'm actually encouraged by how high they're now pressing.

They're almost always over the halfway line, we'll do them on the counter at some point.

 

[Ryan]

Stoke fans cheering winning a goal-kick.

Imagine living in Stoke, seriously.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Frankie playing as a real striker, contesting headers with centre backs in front of the keeper & trying for rebounds is so refreshing.

With Mane, Lallana/Coutinho & Salah behind him he could score for fun from their rebounds.

 

[Ryan]

Mark Hughes looking more and more like Columbo.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Hahaha. Shakiri nearly hit the corner flag with that shot.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Everton 2 0. Granny shagger again.

 

[KopRed]

Yeah but I hate to see our midfielders pumping aimless balls or just simply losing possession under little pressure right after we score.

Stoke are coming back into this.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Need to get a grip of this game again. Letting them see too much of the ball.

 

[Ryan]

Good covering by Ox.

We are surprisingly jittery at the back; looks like Lovren is on a heavy dose of painkillers again and somehow neither Can and Gini can properly take charge bringing the ball out of the back. Like him or not, Hendo always made himself an option in this phase of the build-up and passed the ball with minimum of risk, either going long or very safe short passes.
