Selection,tactics...but not basic passing and how to track someone running into a possible goalscoring position,these are the attributes most Premier League players after 4-5 seasons should really have mastered already.What is Allardyce responsible for if not the training and performances of the team?
He is deluded and out of touch. With the talent we have we shouldn't be in this position.
Whatever, I assume you follow Allardyce's mantra of everything good that happens at the club is down to him whilst anything bad is entirely the fault of the players. You crack on, son. Allardyce is gone in the summer and the only ones shedding a tear will be @tim cahill, @Kev The Rat, @marcus and yourself, most people will be toasting his departure and hoping for better.Selection,tactics...but not basic passing and how to track someone running into a possible goalscoring position,these are the attributes most Premier League players after 4-5 seasons should really have mastered already.
Nope, that sort of thing is worked out during drills in training which is the responsibility of...............
He's a mercenary brought in to do a job. He has no affiliation or love for the club, that much is patently obvious from some of his recent comments. Then again, he's never been at any club long enough to form any kind of attachment, so it's not a surprise. Bin him after this season.
I don't buy that. Players like Rooney, Sigurdsson and, dare I say it, Schneiderlin have all shown in the recent past that they can pass the ball accurately and consistently yet all of them have had issues at times this season. Something is wrong on the training pitch, and I accept it is not all down to Allardyce as we had the same probem under Koeman, but it is the managers job to iron out these issues and if he can't do it, and it seems quite clear that he can't as there were still a lot of misplaced passes against Brighton, then we need to bring in someone who can.You can lead a horse to water and all that....
Once the players are out on the pitch there is nothing much more you can do. Personally I reckon we need smarter players with better mentality.
That said we did win comfortably this weekend and looked a lot more like what an Everton team should look like.
I hate him and his hoofball, win or lose. Even when we do win it's like watching Wimbledon in the '90s (just without any of the "characters")It’s fine you’ll all hate him again next time we lose
wayyyy ahead of youIt’s fine you’ll all hate him again next time we lose
Agreed, the hardcore few hated him since day one, the others merely adopted the fume. Plastics.I hate him and his hoofball, win or lose. Even when we do win it's like watching Wimbledon in the '90s (just without any of the "characters")
I think you've read my posts with an obvious agenda.Did I want Allardyce...No.Was there a viable alternative who wanted to manage us at the time...No.Thanks for calling me son,much appreciated but I'll be 65 in May.I've suffered the disappointment of Bingham and after him Gordon Lee, when we were a top side and should have been appointing a top manager with a CV that was littered with trophies.As I said Allardyce would not have been my choice or second, third or fourth.But I'm realistic enough to know that to the rest of the football world we are seen as a team of mid-table under acheivers.And the only way we will ever get a top manager is by paying huge wages and keeping our fingers crossed that if he works out he doesn't jump ship to a top team the very next season.I did not want Allardyce,but blaming him for the basic errors that player make on the pitch on match day,well thats taking blind hate just a bit too far.Whatever, I assume you follow Allardyce's mantra of everything good that happens at the club is down to him whilst anything bad is entirely the fault of the players.

In fairness I`ve always had a passing dislike of him, which never bothered me, as he wasn`t our manager.Agreed, the hardcore few hated him since day one, the others merely adopted the fume. Plastics.
