I know you wont know this as your a blade not a blue, but we here at Everton specialise in firsts, for other teams.
- New signing failed to score since joining? Play Everton.
- Team struggling for confidence and need a good performance to start their season? Play Everton.
- Bang average dross player on a drought? Play Everton.
- Bottom of the league and no away win all season? Play Everton.
- Goalkeeper need a good game after dropping a howler? Play Everton.
I could go on.
It would honestly not surprise me if you bang four or five in tonight, purely based on how bad we are. That's before taking into account that Sheff Utd are a well drilled team who can play some footy sometimes, even if there arent any special names or players. Wilder has done a fantastic job there.
And to clear it up, some of us are doom merchants all the time but the whole forum is pretty much down-hearted about the whole club at the moment. It's not like we are inconsistent, we are just truly bad. How can you win football matches with midfielders who just aren't bothered? We have a special talent in Richarlison who plays with his heart every single game, even if he has a bad one and yet we have not a single piece of quality in the middle.
The only thing we can cling onto is we have one of the best managers ever to grace football, who will over time fix this mess.
