I don’t think it was easy. You guys fought hard during the first half, and Fellaini came close to scoring even. Unless of course, you’re admiting that Everton’s like one of the basement boys…are you?

I think you’re being gracious because Everton didn’t have the same passion in play and has been missing a stride. Liverpool was deserving of the victory and the Toffees need to be more aggressive if they are going to succeed.
