Boss Hails Howard

Glenn RossTim had a great game and Saha looked pretty sharp but the best players on show for me were the two Freddies, that is Ljunberg and Montero, the youngster from Colombia must be worth a try out?. COYB.

Derek YatesKeep it up Tim we all love you. COYB you can do it.

Hugh DanielsI also watched the game here in the US - really top class Tim performance, never mind the pen saves. Sorry to say, the rest of the lads looked like a mid table Chanpionship team - again we had no bite up front and midfield was a desert (really missed Pienaar). We need that new blood urgently!!! COYB!!!!!!!

chris loinestim howard is one of the best goalkeepers in the premiership. and it hurts me to say that because he came from man u. and he's probab;y the best goalkeeper of all time for everton even better than neville southall. Also even though alot of people dont like are new home and away kits. i think there good and different but i think the white one we played in is alot nicer than are current away kit though. and i hope that becomes are 3rd kit

simon conleyi watched the game last night and tim was awesome he made 3 top class saves during the 90 minutes and his penalty saves were nothing short of amazing, easily best keeper in the league ..

David GrundyWell done Tim. Especially nice for you in the U.S.A. Maybe we can go into penalty shoot outs with more confidence after the semi-final against Man U and now this. Well done Tim and lets break your record in the Premiership again this year!!

Matt TuncWell done Timmy. Two of my favoured players are both named Timmy, or do they prefer Tim?? Trial game or not, great result, good effort as per usual. It seems the players know what is expected and what to expect. They seem to know who is in the first 11 when it counts and how that first 11 should represent the proud club of Everton. They have represented us proudly for a few years now. They're getting ready for 2009. Unlike some of our supporters who seem to navigate toward the "negative" for the last few off seasons, waiting for a bunch of signings every summer knowing full well that we do not have the funds or standing to match the bigger European Clubs. And yet they wait, every year. And our proud club continues to surprise them and please them with the team WE ALREADY HAVE. Please accept or club, with the obvious GOOD and bad, celebrate or win against the yank all stars, stop becoming negative in the off season and trust that MOYES and TEAM are ready for ANOTHER GOOD SEASON.

Jason SaggersWith greater confidence Tim can become the best goalkeeper in the Premier League, Sir Alex's biggest mistake.

Gaz TylerLIKE I HAVE SAID LAST SEASON HE WAS THE HERO IN THE SEMI FINAL OF THE FA CUP.HE WAS THE HERO IN THE CONFEDERATION CUP BUT SADLY THEN LOSING OUT IN THE FINAL.BUT TONIGHT HE SHOWED THAT HE IS CAPABLE OF COMING BACK STRONGER AND THIS IS JUST THE START OF BETTER THINGS TO COME NOT JUST FOR HOWARD BUT FOR THE WHOLE TEAM.KEEP IT UP LADS.COYB.AND BY THE WAY IS THAT OUR FIRST BIT OF SILVER WARE IN THE PICTURE CELEBRATING?
