Anxiety hanging in Goodison air after yet another misstep
By Ian Doyle at Goodison Park
IT wasn’t too long ago that a late equaliser would have been met with widespread euphoria at Goodison.
Yet any elation at the weekend among the Blue faithful was soon surpassed by relief that quickly made way for an overwhelming sense of disappointment.
That their Wolverhampton Wanderers counterparts headed home with similar disgruntlement said much about an afternoon in which the fears of David Moyes again rang worryingly true.
The Everton manager has made no secret of the concern his team were not properly prepared for the start of the new campaign.
A strong revival after the opening missteps against Arsenal and Burnley had perhaps lulled many into a false sense of security, but the performances that have bookended this month’s international break demonstrate Moyes’s anxiety as being well placed.
