Meet the one Everton fan who thought it might be a good idea to take a pair of sunglasses for the Spurs game...

Great picture.

I think goalies should be allowed to wear sun glasses, and smoke too.

...and wear a black polo-neck.

We pressed hard in the first half and Everton consistently turned over possession. In the second half, it looked as if the boys had run out of petrol, as the pressing fell away and Everton's midfield had more time on the ball. Soldado had no service at all and our midfield seem to have two plans. Shoot from outside the box themselves, or lay the ball off square. Serioulsly we look inept and lack of scoreboard pressure will tell over the course of the season. As for the football, completely unengaging.

it must be said, Tim Howard's beard is awesome
