Doesn't matter if we're in the drop zone. Any owner would twist again...as Van Nistelrooy will find out soon.

Yeah van nistelrooy reminds me of that Roberto martinez type manager where they play a style that will generally return a lower point percentage. Unless if you can outspend all the competition like pep
 

We can’t score and we can’t keep a clean sheet, no idea where the points are coming from unless someone decides to put themselves in the shop window.

If Van Nistelrooy ever gets a 72 point season in the PL come back at me with a zinger...

I watched Brentford today and they were so far ahead in their ability on the ball compared to us. Players I'd never heard of breaking through Liverpool with ease.

Then there's us and the bottom 4 teams who are really poor, soon to be properly cut adrift.

You know what pisses me off at times. Reading comments on here from Everton fans talking about doucoure. You've just nailed it. Brentford. Mid table Brentford. They have players who can do basics of running with a ball. Passing a ball. Weighting a pass. Ok not to exceptional standards. But enough to compete.
Then we have to watch bloody doucoure who looks like a new born calf trying to stand up if he runs more than 5 yards with the ball at his feet. Watch the ball bounce off him so his second touch is a tackle. Fail to weight a pass time and time again.
So when i read on here about how he saved the club and how he's crucial to the "press" i get to the stage where i go you deserve to be sitting in the relegation zone. You deserve hardly having a shot to enjoy in a game if you're in any way trying to justify abdoulaye doucoure as a regular here. He wouldnt get a game for Brentford because they wouldnt entertain a player who cant even run with a ball at his feet.

Brilliant post. But let's not kind ourselves, Doucoure is just one of many who aren't anywhere near good enough. We are on the verge of nothing but relegation; the entire squad needs gutting.

Gueye, Mykolenko, Young, Harrison and DCL are all among the most limited with the ball at their feet in the league and alongside Doucoure they started on Wednesday night.
