Well, more often will a striker have it easy to score from that position on a counter attack. Dont forget, he also saved one with a great sliding tackle!

Basically he'll be remembered for being the defender on the goal and for missing a penalty, rather than the overall performance. His Sampdoria performance was miles worse, given the context.
Being isolated in defence against someone who comes inside against your weaker side is the most difficult 1 v 1 situation. Which is why so many coaches now have lefties on the right and vice versa.
The only way you really stop that kind of move is by stealing the ball early or hoping the attacker makes a bad play (i.e. shoots poorly, wide or at you). The real danger is because he managed to get the ball so close to goal, with it being a counter attack. When you see, say, Robben in that position, even when he comes up against Chiellini, he is further from goal. Even then if the attacker is strong enough there's not a lot a defender can do in isolation. Fortunately not many players are particularly decisive in this position. The exceptions being players like Messi and Ronaldo.

You missed his gift for I believe Pienar which almost led to Everton's second goal. That was his biggest mistake of the evening.
I'm not that much blaming him for the goal which mostly was Marrone's fault bad I find it hard to grasp that he never put enough effort in closing the opponent down. He should have been more closer to him. Everton guy dealt with him with such an ease.

With the guy running at speed if you get close you can easily be beaten, leading to a more simple goal. That's a high risk defensive attempt. You'll see most players now would rather let a guy try a difficult shot through them than jump in, Chiellini does this all the time.
There's no need to dance around the fact that Peluso isn't a great player or defender but he's competent enough to play the 'jolly' role on that side, much like Padoin on the right. He showed that last season. He's not Chiellini or even Ogbonna.

Ask Chiellini about that. 
Yes I agree he's not to be used as CB anymore.

Results wise, it is meaningless.
But we have a new manager, and if you believe the media, little old Everton are going to be relegated now that moyes has jumped the ship!!
We can see progress on the pitch, a new mentality and philosiphy.
Its great we beat a big club, but we also beat Blackburn on saturday and took 7000 fans.....to a friendly.

Also, not wanting to have a dig at anyone.
We are fans that follow our local team, most of us born in the City and support the club through blood and family, not just choosing to support a big club from another country. So wins simply mean more.

That is not a dig at people. Just an observation on people's locations.

Christ, you boys are sounding as defensive as your red neighbours
I suppose because Martinez has just been relegated at a club with moderate finances playing his pretty football the media are stirring up some trouble. I don't think the Everton owners are the sort to look at things short term, but I suppose you do need to be around mid table at least in his first season.
Everton have better players than Wigan, so it shouldn't be a problem.
Edit: I get the local thing, but please not the crap insults at others. There was a fricking Everton fan on here from Dublin yesterday trolling.
