YOU BLAMING THE FANS FOR NOT PROTESTING, LAD??

go and look at what he’s just said to me lol

Simply not good enough.
Players mostly played well, certainly had chances, just can’t finish.
Fault lies with Dyche. Yes they had effort and that’s his doing but the team was wrong.
Keane should only play if someone is injured.
Iwobi should’ve come off at first sign of injury to be able to keep him long term.
Maupay gonna Maupay.
Take out those two next match and hope Iwobi is still healthy.
I don’t understand why the first sub is after 70 minutes. That has to change.

club is at fault for not getting the players needed. Simple as.

Start in the boardroom. Then we can move on to the dugout and pitch. They are merely symptoms of "good times".

You are 100% correct, Bill Kenwright is the face of our club, he is an ineffectual bumbling old man who looks like a jumble sale on legs, why would any player want to come to Goodison. I have no doubt that he will go but I think he might see us relegated before he goes.

Totally predictable.

Every amateur on this forum knows we need someone who can put the ball in the back of the net. Why the professionals employed by the club haven't done everything they can to fix it, I have no idea.

Did we have that much of the play? Didn't watch it but BBC stats say we had 41% possession. It was 33% at half time

We had 3 times more chances

 

[Margarita]

Would have won that easily if we had an average (or better) Premiership level striker

Would’ve won that…with better players.

The majority of the team put in a great display and never deserved to be on the losing side there. We know Maupay isn't good enough and his misses cost us today, his finishing simply was not the standard required.

I wouldn't be too downhearted about it, but at the same time I'm not convinced I see anyone else being signed. Che Adams would have scored today I've absolutely no doubt about it. I think he is the answer and we need to get him in and let him do what Marcus Bent did for us all them years ago.

 

[ADT]

I absolutely hate them

 

[Chegsy]

Fulham were average as well. Not a good sign. Imagine being told Maupay will be starting the first game a few months ago.

Game 1 forfeited due to again being underprepared for the season. Villa away next up. If they don’t get their finger out this week that’s likely another game down the drain.

Wolves the next home game. We 100% need players over the line before that game. Can’t be throwing away home games to Fulham and Wolves.

Either we get a goal scorer or we’re going down

Simple as

 

[dan7787]

Looked even worse when danjuma came on. The managers hands were tied

To be fair on Danjuma the game was different at that LATE stage, he would've scored given the time and chances Muppet had

 

[lurky]

Please stop with the tiresome bedwetting shout. It would only be bedwetting if people were flapping unnecessarily. Have you not seen the last two seasons?

You know what? I'm going to do something that is rarely done on this forum and concede that you're absolutely right and I'll not mention it again.

 

[mceverton]

Welcome back Everton, I haven’t missed you

 

[Dwight K Schrute]

Easy to praise players that don't play, than ones that do

We had 19 shots, 9 on target, and Leno is MOTM topping all the stat scores....

The only issue I've got in that game is Thelwell not bringing in a striker

Utter madness. Yes the board and DoF have let us down, but we also have a lot of poor players and a poor manager. It's all a very grim picture.
