The problem is 2 things:

1. The squad is poor, we have little options up top, out wide or at full back which is down to Brands and why he needs to leave end of the season.

2. Carlo is over complicating things - he had the right set up with 433 which just needed work in terms of the defensive side yet he's gone and torn it up and is playing a system that requires 2 boss wingbacks which we dont have and has reduced our attacking output whilst still not improving us defensively.

Simple for me:

Go back to 433

Give Keane & Godfrey a run of games to get some chemistry (it absolutely winds me up how since Silva came in we chop and change the CB's every fortnight or so)

Get Olsen in the side and give the back 4 some confidence

Get the front 3 as they were and stick Holgate in the middle until Gbamin is fit to tighten us up and free up Allan/Doucoure to get forward more.

Give Nkounkou a run until Digne is back

Get Gordon hell even Simms on the bench and punt Siggurdsson & Tosun to oblivion

Simple things that make massive differences that he could do rather than set up like he is happy with a 10th place league finish.

Think he realises that, hence why he switched back to it when Delph went off, I can sort of see why he switched to 532/343 for Fulham but it should have gone back to normal for Leeds and yesterday until the enforced change

words fail me, I actually agree with something you’ve wrote on football.

I was thinking about the Holgate thing myself, it’d give him the option to switch between a back 3 and 4

Ditto. Can’t argue with a lot of that. Stop changing the centre backs every other game, it is a major bugbear. Hadn’t thought about it but maybe Holgate could sit in front of the back four and do a job.
 

Not been good enough, don't think he's improved us at all tbh. Squad is better but just same old Everton.

Do think he can turn it around and needs a fee more windows, but bar the first few weeks we have been shocking this season. Same tripe every single week
 
It's players making mistakes that are costing us, ok the formation sucks but the players are still turning the ball over to easily and sloppily.

Players make mistakes because the system is so flawed. It’s been exposed time and time again but Ancelotti keeps reverting to it.
 
One things that's been annoying me recently, Ancelotti mentioned DCL was on the radar of Napoli when he first joined.

Then in other interviews he says he didn't know anything about DCL until after he joined Everton, him and Keane being the surprises.

Also all the wham he chatted about Moise only to loan him out.
