    I agree that Everton deserved a draw based on the match, but a lot of people seemed content with a draw, personally I really wanted a win out of this given we were at home, top of the league and had 2 tougher games coming up after it.

    If you're top of the league on merit then you shouldn't be scared of anyone particularly at home and should be looking to win any game at home, there was a time when we thought we could get results anywhere and against anyone even when not top of the league.

    We now need to up our game in the next two games to get a decent haul of points IMO which is going to be very tough, given how tired we look and our form. I agree with the opinion that AW is a sometimes a bit too negative when he has something to protect, rather than going out to beat teams he'll try and shut up shop and this disrupts our game.

    If we do this against City and Chelsea we'll lose both games IMO, but I fear AW will look at our lead in the league and decide we should play for a draw (whilst a draw is fine at City we shouldn't setup to play for it from the off).
