Points after Ancelotti took over. This round is not included.

He’s got on the pitch in every single game we’ve played this season, and every single game he was fit for last season after Ancelotti took over. He’s also been given the armband a number of times. If he doesn’t rate him then he’s got a very, very, strange way of showing it.

I can’t stand Siggurdson however I think people just have an unrealistic expectation of a manager in this situation

he has limited options to work with, so are you saying Carlo Ancelotti proven winner would get your support if he stripped Siggurdson of the vice captaincy and leave him to train with the kids?

what action are you expecting from him here to meet your approval?

he’d not be able to field a first 11 each week if he binned all crap and out of form players

What are you talking about you weirdo?! It was you who brought sigurdsson up not me, I’m just saying he clearly rates him because he picks him to go out onto the Pitch EVERY week.
 

I see.

That's an interesting take @The Trinity.

So Ancelotti's Everton "success" is based entirely on Richarlison?

Richarlison plays and our manager looks good?

When Richarlison isn't available, Ancelotti should give the job to Duncan Fergison?

Interesting.

Shame he couldn't make Marco Silva look good isn't it?

The point I take away from your rant there is Richarlison is absolutely vital to Everton and Ancelotti is a fraud without Richarlison and that it's OK because Richarlison is back from this point on.

Moments later in the thread you say it's nonsense to suggest missing players (Including Richarlison, Digne, Holgate, Coleman and Rodriguez) should influence results, but I'm sure that's beside the point.
The last three matches...grand old team......the last three matches.
Yep....that's down to Anchelitti........who else.
so when we have injuries and suspensions we can't put out a team to be competitive.
Disappointing results in recent weeks. And we have had players out. I take your point. Let's see how we do against I think it's Fulham next.
But I of course realise that we have had our better players out. But does that mean that we give up. Does that mean that for those matches that we now inevitably lose. Awful statistic that when Rixharlson is out, we get beat. Anchelotti needs to find a way around that.
Not very nice losing . Sorry if my disappointment rolled on to this forum.
Let's just beat Fulham in a few weeks. Try and get back on track.....

you mentioned that he is picking him despite having other options, I took that as a criticism of the manager so I was responding to that criticism

no?
 

We have 100% got a better squad and played better since he came, however there have been too many of these non performances where we haven't just been beat we have been awful.

Glad the international break has come now tbh

no?
But only in response to you saying he doesn’t want to pick him! I’m saying of course he wouldn’t be his number 1 choice in world football but if he keeps picking him ahead of other options then I have no choice But to believe that he rates him reasonably highly. All managers have to work with players of lower quality than they’d like to, there’s absolutely nothing unique about our situation in that regard so I just don’t see how it’s relevant.

EDIT just seen your later post. No worries, I was genuinely perplexed As to what was happening there.
 
We had fantastic momentum which we threw away through ill discipline as well as some untimely injuries. It has become very clear how important Richarlison is for us. With him we had a lovely balance to our attack and we could put teams under pressure with the athleticism he offered alongside a DCL. Without him we are blunt.
In relation to Carlo I don’t understand why Pickford is playing as the new lad came in and was assured. My other complaint relates to the treatment of Gordon. Granted we can’t see what is going on day to day but on paper he is the best like for like replacement we have for Richarlison.
