Match Thread Everton v Southampton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[HTCHERO]

We’ve seen that go wrong before. Forest took decades to recover, Man City dropped another division. Sheffield wed have never came back up.
We would be the cup final for every team in the division next year

We might aswell get used to it as its going to happen Also, wasn't city just crap until the money so not sure they count.

Most of them aren't good enough to represent this club. Thats where we are at.

The fault however lies with those in our recruitment team

And it's not their fault.
It's recruitment.
And the stakes are very very high. You think that chant is helpful right now?

I admire peoples optimism I really do… but have people watched this lot??

We’ve just lost to at home to bottom of the league twice in a month, after taking the lead both times.

That's 4 teams in the bottom 3 have beat us at Goodison.

The worrying thing is though mate is that we have only won 3 of the 19 prem games we've already played.

That’s why a change has to be made now, perhaps and it’s a big perhaps someone else could get us what’s needed in those games left. Frank won’t though, he just simple isn’t good enough.

 

[GoldenToffee]

We'll shoot up the league once DCL is back in the team.

 

[mikel_88]

100%, he's the worst player in possession ive ever seen at that level.
How bad most Vinagre be!

Not even that defending from him positioning was all wrong tried give him a chance but dont see it

 

[Mark barnett]

Can't remember a more consistently idiotic team than ours, what are Gray, Gordon and Pickford doing on there 2nd goal, dumb and dumber and even more beyond belief dumber than anyone has ever seen before at Goodison.

At current standing, a single win puts Everton 14th. Though we’d all still be unhappy with total points, the feeling of being there vs bottom 3 is significant. Small player changes could make the difference. 54 points remain available, it’s not mathematically possible to be top half (historically) but being safe in bottom half is easily achievable from here with a few changes. Right the ship but be planning what’s next. That is what is needed from the executives. I’d argue they’re not capable given what we’ve seen from them over the last few years.

Probably not helpful but I'm not going to have a go at fans who are sitting watching this rubbish

As I said, the fault lies with whoever decided to bring these mediocre players to the club. Commitment and effort isn't always there either with squad so I dont know where we go from here.

Deep down I always believed we would somehow find a way to safety last year. But not this year unfortunately, I think our race is run in this league. It's our time to go.

 

[Fansince1988]

We'll shoot up the league once Dominic Calvert-Lewin is back in the team.

I’d rather have Strac or Niasse at least they put effort in, DCL is a truly poor striker.

Moshiri loses even more credibility if he sacks another manager after backing him 2 days ago

Not really bothered about Moshiri losing face. This is all about Everton winning football matches. And we are just not doing that under Lampard. And of course , bringing in another manager is always a risk. But imo it’s a bigger risk sticking with Lampard. And even if Lampard can galvanise this team to beat West Han , and that’s a big if. What next?
Lampard imo should have been gone at the beginning of the World Cup.
And I’m not expecting miracles from a new manager. Just one thing that I’m expecting now from someone new. And that’s just that we do enough to stay in this league. Build again and go again next season. But not with Lampard.
The guy doesn’t even know when to make substitutions.
Ah well. Next up the Hammers. Expect the same line up. Same formation. Same old dross. Altogether now…….Up the Toffees.

 

[Mutzo Nutzo]

Everton died today. I've never been this low with Everton, this will be the end of us. When we go, we're gone. Isn't a single way of saving us now

We died a long time ago.

Tine now for the BIG RESET

 

[CrustySack]

One thing we will learn from the coming days is that if Kenwright hasn't stepped down by next weekend, then the man doesn't have the clubs best interest at heart, only himself.

I think I already know the answer.
