Everton post-match thread

Sterling and Navas work hard at the back.

Should have gone

Sterling De Bruyne Navas

And dropped yaya.
 
Haven't got into gear for a long time now.

Players lack spirit , work rate and desire to do the things necessary to get the better or the opposition.

Whatever the reasons it doesn't look look like changing for the better in the short term at least.

As previously mentioned we don't play as a team often enough.

MP certainly is not getting the performances and results we expect but I also think a number of the squad have not only had their best days but need to be replaced.

It took a while to learn the subtle tones of this forum, as you say i think i have a basic if far reaching grasp of the dynamics now.
We win = we are just less than shit if not shit anyway but we scraped it.
Lose = hang Pellegrini sack the Sheikh

I thought maybe the Watford game was a turning point but no that looks like the aberration and this is back to normal. In fact the Watford game was normal for 80 minutes

Annoying thing is we will all be up for the Norwich away game on Saturday but I'll bet you anything the performance will be basically be the same. We always play like we did tonight. We are becoming an average side. Good job we started the season well. Sep, October, November and December have been like a mid table side
 
Looked quite settled for opening 20minutes and then gradually got worse. The way we try and defend from set pieces invite teams to have a go. No chance of a clean sheet with a keeper who doesn't come off his line even when he's favourite. Just hope Joe stays fully fit as the understudy is just not good enough.

Hope the second leg is an improvement, at least my view will be at the side of the pitch but not behind the goaline like tonight !
 
Strange game and a lacklustre performance. Everton were certainly deserving of their win (yet again we see them play like their life depends on beating us), BUT we got absolutely shafted by the officials.
Lukaku offside and interfering for their 1st and an absolute nailed on pen not given when Jesus was tripped in the box.
Shame we didn't go for them at the end when they were a man down.
I still reckon we are favourites to go through though, so come on you blues we are still in this.
 
Its all so lethargic and predictable, it hurts to say im not enyoying watching us at present, quite frankly it looks like we have thrown the towel in and are a Pep in waiting
 
Well for all the toys being thrown about tonight , and the stamping of feet , the bookies have us 7/4 to get to the final , and the blue dippers 7/2 , strange that , looking at this thread you would think we had no chance at all.

I do think we're still favourites to make the final. Doesn't excuse this (and all the other recent) shit show(s).

Squad is way too good to be this poor. Unfortunately we look like we've got ourselves into the position of having to lump it until Summer.
 
Same old pattern. Boss the game for first half hour, but create absolutely nothing, then bottle starts to go a bit and we concede. We don't have enough players who hate to lose.

Them odds are miles out It's a lot closer than your odds say I wish they was the odds as it'd be a no Lose bet Were 4/6 and everton 21/20 to qualify so very close in the betting we are just favourites and rightly so cos it's gna be city 3-1 everon 2nd leg so all is good :)

The club need a word over Madeley and tell the FA were onto that fat fucker who interprets the rules very differently to us than our opponents.

It amazes me how the players stay calm recently (granted almost too calm, bordering on not giving a shit.) But I think we should really start changing the way this is dealt with, the only way this will change is if we get tough.
 
The best player by a country mile was Barry a sad indictment with the money we have spunked on crap replacements

First clear view off that and Can't believe that wasn't given was at the game so didn't realise how blatant it was fucking joke!
 
Same old f**king story. We just pass for passing sake. Why can't we just go for it and try to take the iniative and let a team come at us and then we can pick them off. We rarely win the 2nd balls and look like we lack the desire . I'm living down scouseland and had to get the train amongst them and so many of them were praising there desire and bite in midfield but we seem to make any team look like world beaters. We got what we deserved and I'm thankful were only one goal behind.
