Yeah the goals are proving harder to come by these days thats for sure.Through February we have only managed the 1 goal from 3 league fixtures.

Obviously Aguero is a huge loss but Dzeko is performing like a lad whos blinfolded and had his boot laces tied together.

As for Negredo he has been anonymous recently he clearly has not been the same player since he took that knock.

In january we averaged 3.67 goals per game in February 0.60.Obviously we played better oposition etc this month but it's a big worry all the same.

Teams parking the bus. They get deeper the further the game goes on. 2nd half Yesterday our Cb's were camped on the halfway line and Stoke were content at 0-0. The goal opened it up and we should have ran out comfortable 3-0 winners. If we score early, teams get pasted.

Have they crossed a 100?

Ah, I thought so ... it's only a Premier League stat ... and one I'm sure we'll take care of in the remaining games ... we're already a game behind everyone around us and come this weekend will be two behind so the whole who's top of the table to who's got more goals is all pointless really ...

Swansea are not one of those teams.

They like to try and win a game.

I have not seen the game today, however scoring three at scouse2, is not bad. Perhaps their defense was poor, but that match must have been far more enjoyable to the fans to watch, than the crap Hughes served up yesterday at our place.

Scouse2 will drop more points against teams, it must burn on the Everton fans that scouse2 are above them

I read that skyrtl was pulling shirts again. Was that for their penalty ? Last man scenario ?

They have more goals and we have more points and better goal difference and one less game is all I have to say.

I meant when teams play us. Palace were first to try it and got away with a 1-0 and yesterday Stoke followed suit. I expect more teams (especially those in the relegation battle) to do the same after all losing 1-0 or 7-0 at our place could be the difference between staying up or going down at the end of the season.

I understand, but it will apply to scouse2 as well, as we move to the end of the season.
