Match Thread Everton v Fulham - Preview, Match Report & MotM Poll

[Walter Ego]

I swerved the match and bought some beef dripping - and crisps. Good times.

Life’s all about choices. Make the right ones and it can always be good times

Just waiting at Kirkdale. That was Lampard-level stuff today.

1 win in 8 so I'd deffo say we are heading right back into Lampard level stuff.

 

[windymiller]

What should he have done differently windy? And would it have been enough to change that result?

Looking at the bench, I don't think so.

That's the bigger worry for me - we're missing a few but the reality is this team is relegation fodder.

There's absolutely no justification for playing Maupay, his performances this season have been utterly abject. Godfrey at full back was the wrong call too. Also, what was he thinking with 4-4-2? We looked loads better after he abandoned that bizarre decision.

You're right about the squad, though. Dreadful.

I was feeling positive this morning , but I am afraid we look down and out. Just not good enough and deserved what we got today

Would Simms or Patterson have changed the result? Doubt it.

Our best spell was first half/we didn't improve with them on the pitch.

It's why I think the problem is deeper than "Dyche got it wrong today"

Of course it is, but that doesn't mean that Dyche hasn't made mistakes.

Yes it is, but he didn’t help us how we set up today. But the options off our bench are horrific.

 

[Rollo Tomassi]

As poor as that second half was we could have been in front at the break if we took one of those good chances McNeil made when it was 1-1. Plus there was quite a bit of fortune about two of their goals,they hit the post and get a rebound yet McNeil hits the post and it goes to safety. You never know this week we lose to a team who have lost 4 in a row next week we could beat a team who have won 3 in a row.

I can’t say I am surprised at that result. As a club we have very little to offer outside the fan base, we have an owner who knows nothing about running a football club but that doesn’t stop him interfering, we have a board who are a disgrace but are so delusional that they won’t leave and let people of ability to take over, we have a manager for whom success is not getting relegated and then we come to the squad, a bunch of yellow, lazy, greedy excuses for footballers. If we do get relegated which is now very likely then we deserve it, we flirted with relegation last year and the powers that be within the club decided to weaken the team and expect everything to be fine.

I went for a 12 mile walk and watched my horse come 2nd in the National

Rock on

They all played like they had a severe bout of diarrhoea the night before and were lethargic from all the crapping they have done

 

[Micky_T]

we have a manager for whom success is not getting relegated

That's been the same measure of success for the last 4 or 5 managers we've had.
You can't say success if getting in to Europe when you're battling at the bottom of the table.

 

[matty1878]

we got beat by a team who get an away support in a black cab.

our fans are just sheet on

Mismanagement on a grand scale
