Pish. But jesus, even a shit proper full back makes such a difference. Width. Attacking width. We need two new fullbacks in the summer. Attacking fullbacks. It's so fecking frustrating as it is.

Too many pointless crosses late when we should have been driving at them.

Let's not forget Ibra was inside and we should have won this match. Huge cracks in our team and we have to pretty much win every match to get top 4. More faith in Europa league at this point.

5 games away from the CL at the start of the game and still 5 games away from the CL. I just hope that our recent poor domestic performances don't translate to the Europa League.

Goal incorrectly disallowed, twice hitting the bar...

Time to put our B teams before the European matches. The only way we're gonna get UCL is via Europa League.

Everton very lucky here. Didn't play football, scored a fluke goal, didn't create anything and escaped a lot of cards.
I never expected us to win at any point in the game either .... so we are hardly any better.

Great refball tonight. Barry, Gueye and Robles all avoid second bookings and we have a legit goal disallowed. Not a good performance but the ref's cheated us.

Forget the disallowed goal. We were absolutely dreadful. Disgusting performance from most of the team today. Half of them bottled is so they just pumped the ball into the box. None of those players showed the initiative to drive with the ball, commit players, try something new, pass bloody forwards. Idiots the lot of them.

The only positive was the way we threw everything not to lose. The way we never lose is good for our Europa hopes. Which by the way is our only hope now 100%.

We were robbed again but that's the norm in the league. It's our fault we are so wasteful. Everton were wank today.

From draw to draw until top4. Well not really but at least it wasn't a defeat. Europa League is the only chance really. It's as painful as watching Van Gaal's United.

No words. Less home goals than Burnley this season. Terrible.

How often since we bought Fellaini, under 3 different managers, have we lumped him up front when we're chasing a goal or a result?

How often has it turned our football to complete and utter garbage, with aimless long balls, shite crosses and frustrating bouts of header tennis?

How often does it have to happen before we stop doing it? If it was effective I would still hate it but when it blatantly doesn't work what in the hell are we doing it for?

That was unbelievable frustrating to watch.

Depressing to watch us at the minute. I have no idea what the system is beyond lumping it forward. Slowly.

Zlatans goal should have stood, Everton should have been down to 9 men.

We can't just blame the ref though. We were fecking shocking and have no one but ourself to blame.

Should've won that one. Thought we, as so many times before, played very well until the final pass or the finish. Can't believe how this crap finishing is coupled every time by the bar though. Incredibly frustrating.

One odd goal will be conceded from time to time.

Ironic finish to the game given how the away game finished

One disallowed goal, two shots at the crossbar, easy missed chances, you name it… but the depressing thing is the lack of communication in attack.

Can someone explain to me why Pogba didn't get a foul or we didn't get a corner a little before we scored the goal??

Three main points from this game:
1) We should have won but had a goal disallowed.
2) Everton should have been down to 7 or 8 men.
3) feck you Everton you cheating pricks.

Our crossing and movement inside the box needs a change and not the best of the finishes we had.2 points robbed.

Could cost us millions that awful decision. Be interesting if we miss out on CL by a point (or two with superior GD). Court of Arbitration to sue FA for lost revenue?

Our attack is fecking shit. It's reached the stage where I don't even get excited when we have a one on one because I know we'll miss.

Rashford and Lingard should be nowhere near the starting 11 next season.

Spent the whole second half just shaking my head. No confidence at all. Just fecking impotent in front of goal.

Can we just get rid of Fellaini as well. I am just fed up with him.

Watford has beaten WBA and Liverpool scored this Everton team 3 goals. WTF is happening to Utd.
Why we keep losing the ball at the box? And how we are going win Europa League with this performance. NO WAY!
