And "but they aren't two of the best players in the league" doesn't mean I'm saying you said they were the two best, but two of the best.

You were saying he is one of the best though, I'll not re-quote them as Mike has already picked them out

They are good and I'd happily take them in the Newcastle team, but they aren't as good as you are making out.

Oh yes they are! And in every other evertonians eyes

Some players suit a club perfectly. Like Carragher and Gerrard fit Liverpool, they wouldn't IMO play as well for any other club. I don't think Arteta (who was linked with a move to Liverpool a fe years back) and Jagielka would play well at Liverpool, plus We are catered for in them positions, with in my opinion better players in Carragher and Alonso.

Feels amazing to actually be an evertonian right now! I really am dreaming of Wembley. I and Everton are one game away from entering the theater of dreams! (semi final is at Wembley)

We need a home tie no matter what today, if Everton get Man utd or Chelsea thats really really cruel!

Right, on the fantastic game today!

3-1

Arteta run the show, he is playing at the top of his game right now! The back four was the usual fantastic.

Anichebe had a fantastic game. Suppose he had no choice with his recent troubles.

We out played a very good Villa side, well done the mighty blue boys!

Roll on 6:30 for the draw!

Blackburn Rovers or Coventry v Chelsea
Swansea or Fulham v Manchester United
Cardiff City or Arsenal or Burnley v Sheffield United or Hull City
EVERTON v West Ham or Middlesbrough

I am over the moon with that draw! if we win that game we are going to Wembleyyyyyyyyyy!!!

COME ON YOUE BLUE BOYS!!!

We played some of the best football i have seen from us this season and thouroughly deserved the win,

Great performances from Anichebe, Arteta and Rodwell and no-one really played bad.

Made up with the draw, we deserved a decent draw after nocking out 2 good teams and liverpool

WERE ON THE MARCH WITH MOYSEYS ARMY, WERE ALL GOIN' TO WEMBLEY!

Haha!

We did deserve the draw, we have had some tough ties.

Lets not make them count for nothing tho! You going to Wembley if we make it?

Yeah!!, going the Semis and Final hopefully lol, what do you think the ticket criteria will be?

Soon as the draw got made me step dad rang, he said "you will get a semi final ticket but the final tickets will be gone within a day.

If we get to the semis i will be at Wembley *fact*!!!!

If we make the final i guarantee ill be there, ill have my sleeping bag and everything ready because ill que up at Goodison from the second they go on sale to the second i get a ticket!!!

Come on you bluesssssssssss!!

yer im gunna take my sleeping bag to goodison if we get there, will probably have to get there about 10 oclock at night lol

EDIT - Season ticket holders should get priority i think!

Impressive win that 3-1. Aston Villa are no mugs away from home, they put a full team out so they can't say there only concentrating on the league.

Just wait till ya beat West Ham/Boro first! :)

Anyone else watching the Milan derby? Commentary is really frustrating, it's a couple of seconds ahead of the image, so you're hearing stuff happen before you see it!

It's fine for me tom! I'm watching it online too!

Yeah it's alright now, first half it was proper annoying though. I knew they'd scored before I'd seen it go in and all that. Just started to get really good now with it going to 2-1, real end to end.

AC not getting the run of the game off the officials though, definitely a hand ball for Inter's first goal and should have had a penalty just now.

Inzaghi was born in an offside position!

Top finish tho

He could have had a hat-trick by now if he could stay onside/finish the chances he had when he did stay on!

I seen it was 2-0 to Inter! what it end up?

Finished 2-1, Pato got a goal for Milan

The theatre of dreams is Old Trafford.

I don't think that semis should be held at Wembley. That should be kept for the final, semi finalists don't derve it, fans deserve to be able to watch in their stadium, and it takes away from the sense of achievement when getting to the final.

As for Wembley itself, I've been and I hate it.

If i want too call it the theater of dreams ill call it the theater of dreams OK? It will be what dreams are made of when Everton walk on that pitch!


I do agree with you tho Mike, the final should be at Wembley and thats that, no semis and stuff like that. but i won't be complaining if Everton get there!


So shocked you never praised us today Mike!
