sometimes being just plain lucky is enough
By: 21 | November 1st, 2008
Looking back at the Toffees 1-0 victory over Fulham, you’ll come to the conclusion that sometimes all you can chalk victories up to is being lucky. Certainly their are more than a few times Everton has walked off the pitch, disappointed and feeling as if they deserved points but today, fortune shined down upon the boys in blue at Goodison Park.
It wasn’t an “attractive” match by Everton standards as the offensive chugged and sputtered like an engine without petrol. However with a few minutes remaining, Louis Saha picked a perfect time to score his first goal in blue when he soared high to powerfully head a Leon Osman cross to the back of the net. Through the work of Jimmy Bullard, who is enough to make anyone a Fulham fan, the Cottagers were on the verge of breaking through on numerous occasions but Tim Howard was up to every attack. Of particular note and a surprise decision at that, David Moyes utilized a 4-5-1 with Tim Cahill employed as a central midfielder when Louis Saha came in for Marouane Fellaini on the hour mark.
The win sends Everton to seventh in the table which hold on for the shock, has Chelsea, Liverpool, Man Utd and Arsenal as the top four. Who could imagine something so impossible like that? After the short week, in an effort to assist its loyal blogger, Everton has decided not to play till next Saturday when they face Gianfranco Zola’s West Ham.
