From what Peter Reid says, the penalty was ridiculous and we were by far the better team in the second half!

We deserved a draw .But we did lead a charmed life with the woodwork. One thing of concern is the finishing .You have to take the chances.
And also concerning is this is one of the weaker sides in the top flight.We need to get points out of these games.
But nothing to get too hung up about.Its just the first game but still each game is equally important).We looked bright & settled well in the second half.All the players looked sharp.Shame Demerit wasnt on from the start.Shittu was sketchy but give him time.
Mariappa was unlucky to be subbed .Did nothing wrong. We do need a creative type for certain though to provide a mix up in our attacking play which can become predictable as it did in the second half which we dominated(perhaps Everton had gone a bit to sleep & Demerit shut out Johnson).

Leaving DeMerrit out was a mistake, had he of played I doubt Johnson would have got near the ball for that goal.
I thought we looked a bit nervous in the first half but more composed in the second and overall the result did not reflect fairly on us.
Our finishing did let us down badly which suprised me but again yes its only the first game and we've a long way to go.
Everton are not that week, and they defended stoutly lets not forget they are used to holding the likes of Chelsea and Man utd but I doubt they'll have as much todo as they yesterday against those two.

Shocking refereeing decisions cost us the game. How can you miscontrue a ball hitting a bloke dead on in the face for hand ball? Disgraceful. Anyway, we looked to be the better team in the most part of the game. They have some good players in the midfield - Cahill & Arteta who contributed well and were affective. With Jay DM back for tmrw we can look for a point at least from West Hams visit.

No - can't make it tonight. Hope DeMerit is back tho, Mariappa was alright v Everton, but J DM or Mackay are more experienced.
