Everton were poor, of course, but we looked quite phenomenal going forward and will give most teams a good scare at the back. Sadly, our defence looks almost miraculously porous. It's like we have human beings through whom other human beings can magically run. Almunia used to display this quality when the ball would somehow pass straight through his body, but Koscielny and Mustafi appear to have taken it to a whole new level.
Yes. Mind you, I was spectacularly grateful for Mustafi's tackle preventing Walcott from scoring.
