Match Thread Everton vs Lyon 19 October, 20:05

Can't watch Gashley doing the post match interview, massive tit!

I still wouldn't sack him, he showed us he's a good manager last season. Granted this season he's been awful, fell out with players and been stubbern, and spent alot of money. Tonight he showed a willingness to change, tried something different, showed fight and looked interested, when the chips are down the character comes out, I still hold faith despite some of the dross i've watched us play all season. I'd least leave give him a few more games seriously, I really don't think pressing the panic button is the solution.

I understand what you're saying, but the shocking form since the Spring is a serious blemish on his record. My confidence in him has gone. You don't turn around that kind of form and go on to be successful, it just doesn't happen.

No it isnt. With player coming back until the end of the year we should try to get a few pointin the league and play better football in 2018

Unsy in as a temp . At least it will lift the crowd , and players , for Sunday . Give Fam Blud fella a nughtmare

Their second goal did us, and that was down to Martina failing to defend. If not for that I fancied us to score again.

It’s ok though lads, Burnley still the only unexpected loss of the season.

How the hell are we going to scrounge enough points together to stay in the Premier League?

 

[Joey66]

It wasn't Holgate pulled someone back on the right wing.

Co co blasted the ball at Sandro so hard it hit him went over the clowns head winger free run it was on the left so it was never Holgate defo CO CO the clown!

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Hahaha Williams "we had a lot more chances than them"

Sack Koeman!

 

[allen]

There were signs of something there. Then it was stamped out, buried, dug back up and set on fire.

 

[Bob Latchford]

Might be unpopular right now as everyone wants koemans head. But he started a team (bar injuries) we mostly wanted. He made attacking subs and went after the game. We showed some fight.

The timing of their goals killed us. I'm not koemans biggest fan at all and think it's time for a new manager and change of morale in the team but tonight I reckon he made the right decisions. One of them nights.

At least the performance wasn't utter crap.

He started
Williams
Cuco
Holgate at right back

After a few subs it was better but we are so low on confidence. We went from battering them to looking like a pub side again.

 

[Fansince1988]

Unsy isn't my choice for full time, but as an interim for a few games? I'll take it all day over this shocking fraud.

He might not want it, he has a cushy job in the u23s.

I think if this had been earlier in the season fans wouldnt have been so restless. More tge timing

 

[Milkman]

You know.. I'm not even that down about that. There were a lot of positives:

- Tom Davies was and is brilliant
- Lookman was very good
- Vlasic was good (in the middle too)
- Deadball Gylfi's dead balls were on point
- The speed of play was much faster (often at the cost of accuracy, but who cares anymore)
- Williams gave us some much needed and long overdue Grade A sh*thousery. About time. I swear we'd win every home game if we had some dinosaur like Pulis in charge
- We made plenty of chances

We're still crap though.
