    I read somewhere that Jenas was in line to be Lineker's successor. Hope not.

    Well they said nothing about us thankfully!

    Bigged up Bissouma naturally.

    Actually seemed to be a trend to talk about one or two players in each game.

    Sky have the goals pretty much straight after the game and of course the clubs have them online within 24 hours .

    Danny ‘finger on the pulse’ Murphy pretty much said he doesn’t believe people like Reids are necessary during his analysis of the Villa game.

    Jenas didn't think much of our performance - said we were too negative and set in our ways.

    Made it sound like Spurs totally outclassed and outplayed us.

    Jenas is one of the worst pundits going. The bloke just says the first thing that comes into his head and will contradict himself later in the same game.

    Wow, Lineker, Wright and Murphy all thought our goal should have been allowed.

    Strange that I tapped on the title of this thread and it took me to the first post instead of the first unread…

    That happens when you’ve already been in and read the thread after the last unread message (for you) was posted. Either that or the Cookie Monster has been at your laptop/tablet/phone.

    Ouch - how will Gary cope with us beating one of his teams 5/2 .

    And will we get any credit ?

    The focus will be on the unpopularity of Benitez, but they do love Claudio so he will get some credit.

    Chelsea will still be first, presumably.

    It'll be something along the lines of "Ranieri keeps his job for another week! Hahahaha"

    **** off Gary.

    I wonder if they will wax lyrical about how good our forwards were today , like they would about Salah and co . We will see…

    It'll be how bad Everton were.

    I believe there was an issue with the camera. Sadly no footage after the 60th minute.

    Beating Norwich is not as shocking as Everton losing to some minnow or other.

    It shows when I last watched MOTD, I’m 40 but this evening has reminded me of being a kid and trying my best to stay awake for about four hours between the prime time Saturday night TV and MOTD starting.

    I was impressed with J Jenas's views on Watford. Very positive about us, even my wife was shocked as she watches the One show and says he's sh1t on it but on MOTD, he seems to know his shizz. 9/10 BBC

    As a non-fan of Jenas myself I was surprised, whichever researcher prepared his piece was on the money for him last night, managing to highlight that important aspect that highlights couldn't necessarily show - how King's performance as a line-leading No.9 all across the park and the game set the tone for the performance and helped us keep our heads up, fight for and retain the ball throughout the game, which is, of course, an extremely rare experience for us.

    Yes, King was featured nicely, I have so many Everton fans up here in North Wales, felt sorry for them, for a second

    They basically accused Rose of trying to cheat by telling Tufan to stay down when he kicked the ball out but did agree it was a foul on Sarr.

    Guess that is worse really as you’d expect officials to pick that up .

    I thought it was a foul on Tufan, I think it was a worthy of a 2nd yellow, I think Arsenal were within their rights to play on (but it's not what happens most of the time), I think it was a foul on Sarr, I think Kevin Friend is a ****, I think whoever was on VAR is also a **** and maybe a bigger **** than KF.
    I saw motd and hate the way the pundits agreed it was a foul, should have been ruled out, and then the host giggles and then they proceed to praise Arsenal for being a lot tougher and game savvy these days.

    Amusingly enough, on VAR was the new Aussie ref, Jarred Gillett, who was the proud holder of our previous 'most obviously appalling performance overseeing a Watford match' award this season, earned during the Newcastle game.

    And to be fair, there was almost as much focus on how good we were as how dog#### United were!

    That's the likeable Claudio factor. If our manager was an unknown they wouldn't have given us any praise)
