Did you "smell" that? You neanderthal biff

The passing in the run up to that DCL missed 1 on 1 was very un Everton

The players broke out the dyche mould for 30 seconds and look what happened

Seems like we set some new embarrassing record each season now

Not taking solace in the fact Everton had 1 point after 5 league games last year. Last year means f-all.

Somehow get a result at the King Power, then batter Palace at Goodison.

The Dyche-out cries concern me. Help is coming when everyone is healthy. This is clearly a defense problem. Everton are scoring goals, that isn’t the problem now. The problem is we can’t stop other teams from scoring more.
Dyche is even using subs now. Progress is being made. If Everton continue to dismiss managers, there won’t be anybody left. Yes, present state sucks, no argument. But help is coming. Everton will finish mid-table this year.

The Dyche out crires ‘concern you’. Jesus wept.

Is right, the manager is poor the football is poor.

We play the worst football in the league
I don’t see how anyone could deny that

Is it me or does Pickford play way more long balls for Everton compared to when he plays for England? We just kept giving them the ball, over and over again. Dyche has to go.

It was something Shearer kept saying early at the euros. It eventually got to Southgate and he stopped Pickford doing it for a while but it’s a totally frustrating tactic. Basically from 100% possession into 50%?

Is it any coincidence DCL had his best season under a manager who knew what he was doin.

Respectfully, not sure the manager is the reason DCL couldn't finish either of two 1-on-1s with the keeper today.

Honestly. Quick first time passing. Without doing much we caused that Villa back line problems. They're going to get cooked in the Champions League

 

[MisterJ]

Another first

Good times

I'm afraid it can be levelled at him.

Bournemouth wasn't his fault ( the players simply wilted).

But once you've seen the players do that you are supposed to take steps (as a manager) to prevent it happening again. Selecting the same defenders, sitting back to defend a lead again with the same defenders and making more errors re substitutions: that's not a manager taking steps to prevent the same problems recurring.

As a caveat: the stats show we concede on average 2 goals per game when Keane plays, but only 1 per game (average) without him. Selecting Keane is not acceptable.

I put this up in here after the first game if the season, now factor in we've conceded 10 more in there games and all of those have been 3+ conceded too.
