Phil Neville Offers A Plugin Like Everton Are Exported To The Limit

Roy Hodgson last visit to Everton illustrated in detail its failure to manage expectations and the pressure of being the manager of Liverpool, where he was ranked the lowest they are displayed in a Merseyside derby in living memory the best performance of his term and turned a couple of Scandinavian journalists who begged to differ. A change of scenery has not changed torment.

A team of West Bromwich Albion with nine changes to the side completely defeated in Swansea, on Saturday, was the second to inflict on another out of the Cup from the start of Everton, David Moyes. Chris Brunt penalty seemed to have secured a place in the fourth inning against the side of the house he had presented no threat. Then the clock reaches 89 minutes, Marouane Fellaini header turned Vellian Apostolos' on the edge of the area and found the bottom corner at a time and the stomach of Albion. After the injury the insult when Phil Neville excellent curling left foot shot beyond Marton Fulop in the overtime and Somen Tchoyi, Albion striker wasted a golden opportunity to take the tie to penalties.

Fellaini hit up the story of Everton weaknesses, the attack was intended to send them to another story of a cup undeveloped. But, as against Wigan Athletic Premier League Saturday, they found a way over the line. Neville's goal, only a tenth of 16-year career, was their most recent unexpected truce. Hodgson could just rip the jacket and throws it on the bench in disgust to his team luck did not respond.

"We are on the revenue side to put the game out of reach, but I would not say that we have thrown away," said the manager of Albion. "Our priority is the league and we have made it very clear that the selection of the team. But we were close to the elongated, and extended so that it would have been very satisfactory, we will not be under any great pressure." September may not be a surprise for visitors to Goodison Park recently.

For the fourth straight game, there was no place in the squad Everton Louis Saha, a strange situation in a team devoid of evidence and scorers Premiership strikers established. The French international says he is fit to play, while the leadership Everton say the opposite is true, and denies that he was punished for refusing to play in the reserves last week. Regardless, they desperately need to resolve their differences and move forward with efforts to add some penetration into the team.

Denis Stracqualursi, the Argentine who made his first start since signing on loan Tigers on the closing date of transfer, led the attack Moyes' instead. The joint leading scorer in Argentina top flight last season was a possession Everton dominated wants, but is willing and able to be seen.

Stracqualursi was on the receiving end of several introductions natural central defenders Gareth McAuley Albion and Jonas Olsson, who won all the challenges surprisingly air with ease. It is also unfortunate to have an overhead kick blocked and the rebound deflected off a teammate, Ross Barkley, but his touch often betrayed his work rate and Everton caused some problems for the defense of visitors in a desperate first half. "He leads the line well, and his work ethic is tremendous," said Everton assistant manager Steve Round. "He only started two games in three months, so it will take time to get up to speed."

Everton dominated possession in the first half, Albion had the better chances and the match was facilitated when the visitors edged ahead. Graham Dorrans, Everton face a high back line, wire passed round, Phil Jagielka and Peter Odemwingie sent clean through on goal when he was sent tumbling by the stand-in goalkeeper Mucha January. The management of Odemwingie is saved on the Slovak a red card, but it was soundly defeated by the resulting penalty, Brown send him the wrong way.

Hodgson said: "The letter of the law would have been a red card, but I do not think that's right, the interpretation that the law should be changed for a long time ago, extra controllers, when they make an honest attempt to win the ball made an honest attempt, but was a bit 'late ... "

Fellaini great equalizer took both teams by surprise, and fell to Neville, to gather transfer of Royston Drenthe and finding the far corner, to become an unlikely hero. "He wanted everyone to praise him later," said Round, "so we all greeted him with a stony silence when he entered the locker room."
