Everton (H) | PL | Post Match Thread

[Bournemouth Blue]

Too many are reading and believing the media who are relishing this. Once the fans stop supporting their own team, we are in trouble. Everton didn’t deserve a point today, despite all our problems with injuries and form. But mind games have a damaging effect and Everton worked on that.

Maybe not a turning point but absolutely nothing seems to be going for us at all.

Confidence is a huge factor. We have lost ours and other teams have increased theirs.
Every time one of our players is in possession they are taking a split second longer to decide. They are making decisions they wouldn't normally make. They are trying a little bit harder and end up over hitting a pass or overcompensating by making runs enthusiastic but unintelligent.
Those fine margins eventually tally up and the balance tips against us.

A year ago Everton's equaliser would have been water off a duck's back. Now it feels like we might drown under pressure. That's not just the team, it's the fans too.
We will break the cycle eventually but it's going to take all of us to do it.

The old guard are fine, unfortunately they're having to play more games than expected and also more importantly the system of high line and 3 at the back requires legs in midfield.

100% spot on...

At least the swamp dwellers are still fucking shit.

Think the fans have every right to now boo and voice displeasure at this run. The football is atrocious at the moment.

Why do fans have a right to boo? Today I paid to watch a football match and I got what I paid for. Just because I paid my money does not mean I am entitled to see a win.
There was no lack of effort today. It was a lack of quality with the players being half a yard to slow physically and half a second too slow, mentally.
What exactly will booing the players achieve? How is that going to help us, going forward?

It's an open forum. Forums are for discussions. That's the beauty of an argument. There's are 2 sides. Just because fans are voicing their negative opinions that are based on facts that don't necessarily align with your views, doesn't mean they aren't City fans.

That's life in general. How shit would it be if everyone agreed on Everything!!

I'm not gonna argue with you for the sake of it. Happy new year.

Why do fans have a right to boo?

Because free speech is still a right in this country.

 

[sir baconface]

Then he should just retire if he can't play football anymore. He's not too livid to continue drawing his considerable wages is he?

Eh? Can you think of one good reason for him to retire before the end of the season? He’s under contact, doing as best he can and under no moral obligation to walk.
