Match Thread Everton v Southampton Sunday 27th Nov KO 16:30

seriously, how bad is this?
no confidence, no urgency and no aggression. terrible stuff.

Whenever a team is "up for it" we never win, that is why we never win a derby match as it means so much to the RS. Southampton want this today to make a statement to Koeman.

Ball watching again

Playing Barkley is like playing with 2 Strikers, but one doesn't really score

Or pass effectively, or close down.

Its the lack of commitment/effort on and off the ball I'm finding most concerning.

They seem like they cannot be arsed

 

[ianefc]

The lack of pressing is embarrassing our front four should be ashamed and Barkley shouldn't be playing.

 

[diggerdestroyer]

Koeman talks about a pressing game constantly. Yet we don't press. It's a joke.

 

[chrissyjack]

Errrr.....come on Everton . Wake up, like

 

[BigBlueConk]

Anyone else join in the Southampton song about RK?

 

[Brendan Janus]

Appalling first twenty !!

Wimps who don't care.

There was a thread that said we were an "unhappy camp" the other day - I don't see it. I actually see no emotion whatsoever beyond "we can't be arsed".

 

[dannyboy]

I actually feel for Barkley, the lack of options when we break is dismal. Because of the way the team's set up the onus is on him to create something out of nothing all the time.

 

[blue to the bone]

That's a horrofic 20 mins. Scary if that's all we can do

Just happy to pick up their paycheques. no desire whatsoever.
