I have to say it isn’t working at the moment.

I think it’s a mix of stubbornness keeping with the same tactics, coupled with injuries to key players. It’s even more problematic when you have absolutely no depth in the squad. Back up players like Davies, Gomes and Rondon says all we need to know.

I remember a certain great saying once “never again”

Until certain key players come back fully fit, and perhaps 2-3 additions in January, which I can’t see us doing… and continue to use the same pathetic tactics I suspect we will continue circling the drain… hopefully though we won’t get sucked in, but it wouldn’t surprise me if we did.

Sucks to be an Evertonian at the moment, that’s a fact.
 

Rafael, right lads we soak up pressure and hit teams on the counter attack and win

Everton Coincided first in 16 of 18 games

What now boss?
Keep the same tactics
I will not defend how we have played the last period. But there is a difference between having a tactic and how it is performed. Football is not like chess, where you can move the pieces as you like, but there are far more variables that come into play.

At the same time, we are the team that has taken the most points after the opponent has led the match - something that is not only positive - but it is something.
 

A good question here, does anyone seriously look at this team and think "that's a team that should be fighting for Europe"

No. It's a team performing roughly where it stacks up in comparison to the rest of the league.

The frustration comes from years of mismanagement, of poor signings, of wasted millions and huge missed chances.

That is all being laid at the door of one man after a very poor run.

Why are West Ham so much better then?

….absolutely. It’s crazy.

More points picked up from losing positions indicates that a more positive approach, playing with tempo and aggression would definitely have got us more points.

I knew what an unpleasant man he is but I’m genuinely surprised at how poor a coach he is.
