The Football.....

[Vapin' Joe]

As i said before i like the new stadium but there is a lot who don't but one thing is for certain we won't be going back to the boleyn.

Not now as the bulldozers are in. How easy is it to get tickets for the London Stadium? I have a trip back to The Manor planned next year and I'd love to take in a match.

Off to Goodison tonight, glad I've got a litre of gin in the cupboard, think I might need it when I get in. The way the Toffees have been playing and the way the Gunners have been playing, I fully expect us to get our Arse(nal)s smacked good style.....but let's see what happens....it's the hope that kills you.

If you hope for an Arsenal win, then - from a Yiddo.

Time for Agent Lukaku to step up and do a good job.

5 minutes from time and Everton take the lead.

Great result.

Thank you very much The Toffees!

My goodness. I enjoyed that.

Watched it in The Maple Tree in Penge, of all places.

Could have been worse: Vange, for example.

And Brighton go top of the championship which would bode well if it wasn't for the fact that we were top this time last year.

Blimey, is there anything like football for roller coaster emotions? I was so down after the toothless performance on Saturday, and now I am so up. I will need a gin or 4 to replace the adrenaline with alcohol and help me sleep. For the first time in quite a while, Eveton showed some team spirit and passion to spare, and the crowd was really up for it as well.

I would be interested to hear what the Hammers on here think of Enner Valencia. When Everton got him on loan in the dying moments of deadline day, most people seemed somewhat underwhelmed, and the word was that West Ham fans generally didn't rate him. His chances at Everton have been very limited but in the past few games he has come on as sub and shown quite a lot of energy. He started tonight, played very well, and again his work rate and energy were excellent,;he was enthusiastically applauded when he was subbed. Playing for a contract perhaps? Or maybe not so bad as first thought?

The latter. Lukaku was all the better for him being there. I thought Valencia's work was outstanding last night.

I've been seriously ragging Baines for some time now, as (to me) he hasn't looked arsed. Last night, he was excellent. Coleman was even better. Barkley, too, was excellent after a couple of bad mistakes in the first half.

There just seemed to be much more energy, commitment and passion there, from everybody. Everton should play all games under the lights at 7.45 on Tuesdays.

I did laugh at Wenger moaning about Everton "making it physical", when his teams have been the biggest snides in the PL for years.

Probably having Lennon on the wing- who does a lot more work and covering than someone like Mirallas.

What a hero this guy is, got to love him.

That was a lovely header.
