Ramiro Funes Mori

[Martino Robertez]

Did he have nDong in his pocket all game or was he just happy to see us?

For his fanboys a hope you enjoy him for the next 12 games, because that will be him as an Everton regular. The only chance Sunderland had today was from him pissing around with it on the left touchline, he then proceeded to give it away, which was pathetic but only superseded by his pitiful attempt to get back. I hope one of MOTD's camera angles shows him completely giving up on getting back, which I saw clear as day.

I feel a bit sorry for him as I don't think anyone watches him without negative bias. Because he usually just looks a bit shaky, like he's going to mess something up.

But he rarely does, to be fair. Statistically had a great game yesterday, making 11 clearances.

Agree, he definitely looks like a player capable playing for a really good team. Good enough to be at least a backup in CL-contending squad in a PL team.

I think he consistently giving the ball away in dangerous position a couple of times in a match. His passing is a bit meh and got to improve.

Won't be with us.

 

[larrygobfiend]

He's only 25 and he is getting better.

Obviously he's not the finished article.

 

[Bluebill]

Reminds me of sakho when he played for the rs, horrible on the eye but a capable defender none the less

 

[Bally8]

He makes me nervous, but he's not that bad at defending

Well done you. You've spotted what's really important that the rest of us have missed and clearly we've been on a terrible run for ages with Funes Mori in the side, haven't kept any clean sheets, and he's been gifting the opposition goals for fun. In reality, that hasn't happened and you have some bizarre vendetta about a player who has been partly responsible for us becoming solid at the back and putting together a run of 1 defeat in 9. You are actually wrong as well because Schneiderlin was the one who gave the ball away that lead to Sunderland's best chance of the game where they hit the bar. But blame Mori for that if it makes you feel good.

Funes Mori was out of the side as Jagielka was favoured for most of our awful run of form and Mori did not play in games we would have expected to get something out of at Bournemouth, Burnley and Southampton. Mori was then recalled to the side and played in the Chelsea hammering (which we would have lost regardless), and was involved at the end of the poor run against Watford and Liverpool. No one is suggesting he is the complete defender, but he has been part of a defence since the derby that has kept 6 clean sheets in 9 in the league.

Why you feel the need to lay in to him after being part of a defensive record like that, and part of a team with this kind of form is odd. I suppose some of our fans are just never happy unless they can find something to moan about. Even when we are the most in form side in the league at the moment, and have the 4th best defensive record in the league in terms of goals conceded. Better than City, Arsenal and the RS. It also makes me laugh how people have written off Mori, despite Koeman repeatedly picking him week in week out, and with him being an international for one of the best sides in World Football who have players like Aguero and Messi in it.

He'll be gone in the Summer. Top defenders don't gift chances to opposition in every game. He was hopeless at Middlesbrough too. Sunderland didn't even try to attack yesterday. Also I noticed you didn't mention his pathetic attempt to get back. It's was a hospital ball to Schneiderlin way under hit, it was also irresponsible play as the closest player to him was Williams, meaning if he did play it infield and not get the pass right we were on deep trouble. He's crap, just calling it how I see it.

Also he is playing as Jagielka has dropped off the edge of a cliff in the past 10-14 months. It's no surprise to me that Keane, VVD, Kone and others have been repeatedly linked.

He'll be a good squad player to have but I think we need better to take his place in the team full time. Every game he makes me nervous. There was a point in the first half down in the right channel where he was favourite to get the ball and he only had to keep on running toward the ball and take it and then put it down the channel and yet he stopped and stuttered his run and it allowed I think Januzaj or Borini to nick it and win a corner from him.

Then second half he pissed about with the ball at left wing, holding and holding on to the ball and played a shocking pass into Schneiderlin and Sunderland nicked it and broke and Defoe nearly scored.

And then another time in second half on the edge of our box to the left, he raced in to Nick the ball off of a Sunderland player and they turned him easily and if it wasn't for Gueye being in the right place at the right time to clear our lines then we'd of been in trouble again.

I do like the lad and thing he has something to offer but I would like us to go out and get a more accomplished CB to come in and partner Williams full time!

Why will he be gone? People have been saying the same about McCarthy for ages and he's still here. Koeman has gradually got rid of players who have no future here, or started to phase out some of the older players from the starting 11 like Jagielka and Barry.

The top clubs in particular need strong squads and if we want to challenge in Europe as well as the league over the next few seasons, we will need a big squad. Holgate is still young and learning the game, and Williams maybe has a season left in him after this one. We aren't in the position to bring in 10 top players in one window so I don't see how Mori will be gone in the summer.
