Made up I'm ill and missing this!

Premiership form goes out of the window in cups

Still not good enough, mate. We took the lead at home and then bent over.......say no more

 

[Eggs]

...come on Blues, in the hat and we can still win it.

 

[kenada_blue]

No he didn't.

He played the same system that beat them 2-0 last time.

From last week where we beat a better side 3.0.

The system we beat Leicester was pure luck based on two hoofs (one from a keeper) and overall was a shocking game of football.

 

[Darth Toffeeman]

He's had six months to change and I see no improvement whatsoever not even a glimmer.

The only solution has to be a huge revamp of the squad. Out with the old.

Re signing Barry etc is just a statement of acceptance that will we continue to be useless

I would expect and hope that Barry will be used more as a mentor for the younger players.

He should not a start a game again after this window closes.

 

[Pittsburgh Footy]

What?

We had been on top all game. We scored and then fell asleep.

That's on the players.

Koeman started the strongest team he had available today. The subs he made were positive and worked at first.

They then managed to throw it away. Not due to tactics, but down to just bottling it as soon as we went ahead.

exactly

 

[BlueToff]

think he bought him only to be used further forward tbh, besic was one who was bought for a similar role.

And Besic is injured.

And Cleverley is crap.

And McCarthy is crocked.

We don't score enough goals - that is clear - but we also sit too deep with Barry in the team. The issue is we have nobody else.

nearly fume time

No. The first half was abysmal apparently from both sides. We are absolutely crap literally every single time a certain player plays.

 

[Fansince1988]

Someone said the other day are we like Stoke, well it looks like it because as of now we are both out of the cup. Hope that changes though but I won't hold my breath.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Heads absolutely falling off in here haha.

Have the day off lads, why don't you.

It is as simple as this. This useless player plays ..we lose. How cant our manager spot this simple fact

 

[BlueToff]

Koeman is as culpable as any of these players - why is Barry on the pitch at all never mind getting 90 minutes?

I'd never wish an injury on an Everton player but I genuinely wouldn't mind it happening now.

Because we have no other midfielders fgs

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

No Ghana no win, it's gonna be a long winter.

Davies playing well in place of Gana, always looking to get us on the front foot, covering plenty of ground, so I don't think we're losing because Gana isn't playing.

 

[eurosrees]

Well no. Because no other Premier League side was managed by Roberto Martinez for three years.

Our new manager seems to have been caught under his spell too though, strange.
