    He should have started with 2 strikers and left Neville on the bench Fellaini done much better and Neville scored an OG so I currently despise him!

    Should have been Jelavic on for Cahill... or at least Anichebe... he will only chase games we're losing; he doesn't attack them

    No Drenthe to terrorise their defenders. Straqualursi subbed off. Agree 100% with the post.

    Have to agree as well, we never seem to play until we're behind.....by which time it's twice as hard and sometimes too late. On another note, well done Victor on a well taken goal, at the moment he's our 'in form' striker!.

    Agree.
    Look like Moyes thought his Captain would lift the spirit.


    Defence defence defence, and a huff and a puff, hope we score.

    Moyes totally lost the plot today! He's so afraid to lose against a lower league team that he bottles it and just defends, not good enough for Everton imo. We may not have the biggest squad but the squad we do have is decent and should be beating teams like wigan who concede goals for fun this season and have scored the fewest.
    The worry is that he's lost faith in the squad he built :(

    same old story, we sign strikers leave them out and say they are not match ready.

    Moyes got it wrong today, he should of played same team as man city game. You dont change a winning team unless injury or suspensions. Pienaar should of been on the bench with Jelavic. I also agree with the statements which say we only attack when we go behind or in the last 10 mins of a game. Today was 2 points lost not a point gained.

    Neville should never be sent on the pitch. he is too old for the game anymore and is a liability. should have sold Cahill in january and gone with Denis and Anichebe to start and bring Jelavic on later

    i've said it before.  Moyes builds a great squad with no money, but he's the worst match day manager in the prem.

    Started cahill with jela, drenthe, barkley, and even vic on the bench.

    Started hibbo against a fast left winger - the exact scenario that sent him to the bench for a year after he got toasted by chelsea in the fa.

    Subbed Neville.... NEVILLE for cahill sending our strongest holding mid (fellani) to a striker role.  On the road at the bottom team we should have been at their throat from the get go.  This was a silly, silly move.  He seems stuck in time back when we lost all of our strikers and cahil/fella did a good job of filling the gap.  Since that time their attacking contribution has been near zero.  Periodic goals does not a striker make.

    Sub vic?  really?  I know he scored, but there is an unhealthy attachment to him considering his contributions on the whole.  I know he scored, but who honestly got excited when he came on?

    I read all this and wonder why Moyes feels we are lacking creativity.

    The bloke is a ginger muppet who gets it right occassionally
