[EFC] Premier League
Neatsistebiu aš juo. Antras mačas per tris dienas, Ramadanas dar turbūt (?), fizinis ir moralinis pachmielas po Afrikos čempionato, kur jis arė nuo iki, rungtynės jau faktiškai laimėtos, visi biški atsipalaidavę, biški pasisaugo. Bet tik ne 36 metų jaunuolis. Spaudžia, lipa ant galvų ir kuo rungtynės labiau į galą, tuo labiau didina apsisukimus.
Kitas keistas reiškinys, tai kad po Gealisho iškritimo, McNeilas tapo starto žaidėju. Ypač po to cirko su (ne)perėjimu į Crystal Palace. Aišku, tai kažką pasako ir apie jo konkurentus į tą poziciją, bet varo visai neblogai, negalima kažko daug blogo pasakyt.
Everton’s win over Burnley was the 20th victory in 48 Premier League games since David Moyes returned to the club in January 2025.
To put it into perspective during the 2021/22 & 2022/23 season, Everton only had a combined 19 wins across two seasons (76 games).
Nu ir nepasakysi, kad komanda 500 mln sukiso ir sudeties overhaula kosmini padare. Atrodo atejo ir padare tvarka. Moyesas yra mid-table treneriu goat'as.
Simboliška, kad šiandien rungtynės su Chelsea.

Andy Hunteris Guardiane gerai apibendrino padėtį:
Cheat for seven years by making illicit payments totalling £47.5m for players who help you win two Premier League titles, the Champions League, the Europa League and two FA Cups, and not only do you get to keep those trophies but you escape with a fine of £10.75m and a suspended nine-month academy transfer ban. If you’re Chelsea.
"Breach financial rules by £19.5m over a three-year period while taking out loans to build a new stadium and losing sponsorship deals owing to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and you receive a 10-point deduction reduced to six on appeal. If you’re Everton.
"The Premier League wanted a 12-point punishment, don’t forget, which would have pushed Everton closer to a relegation that could have triggered administration. Evertonians were condescendingly dismissed as conspiracists when accusing the Premier League of operating a two-tier disciplinary system in 2023. This week they received confirmation they were correct."
