Everton 2 - Fulham 1 (FA Cup)

we won , we won, we won :-) oh yeah and did i mention - we won :-)

after a depressing few weeks what a tonic this victory is. and we actually scored more than once and looked to carry an attacking threat for once this season. Moyes rang a few changes from the start with Big Denis coming in and Maggie Gueye on the left of the 5 man midfield. With Donovan on the right and a middle 3 of Felli, Tiger Tim and Gibbo that looked pretty good to me.

Although , being Everton, we did it the hard way but going behind first. Handball by Johnny H in the box to give a pen away which that ex red twat Murphy put away. However, far from going under as has been the case this season, the boys got their heads up and fought back into it. We had a good period of possession which ultimately resulted in Landon crossing in for Big Denis to nod in. Great to be back in it and really pleased for Den as its his first one for us.

After that the game ebbed and flowed but we did well specially in midfield where Gibbo was always involved , snapping away at their players. Landon looked good as usual as did Maggie in flashes - things certainly looked a lot more dangerous from us going forward than lately. And all this paid off cos Big Felli got on the end of a cross in the area and managed to put it away to put us 2 - 1 up :-) Well done big man - well in :-)

So on we march and is it me or does this have a ring of 1995 to it? doing badly in the league with a team not particulary well thought of or high in flair or creativity but on a great cup run to make us feel better. Could be our year.....just saying..... :-)
