Everton V LFC Post Match Thread

[danperkins]

He IS clueless - anyone can see why we dominated in the second half. Chasing the game, taking chances, Everton happy to sit back.

We still barely created anything. The shape was horrible. The only width came from a centreback being asked to play right back.

He isn't clueless he is just massively out of his depth and under fierce pressure.

[tsb]

In that BBC interview he couldn't recall whether that was the fourth or fifth loss this season...

[spanky]

He'll sell Torres and buy Carlton Cole, we'll be at a financial lose with the deal

He thought we played well today.

Did you think we played well today?

[alunevans]

If we judge him after 10 games (which is in 2 games time) then at worst we'll have 6 points, at best we'll have 12.

Even at best it's a terrible judgement. I see no reason whatsoever why we'd win our next 2 games.

And if that truly was the best we've played under his management, that's reason enough to move him on cos that was abysmal.

The usual nonsense of defending ridiculously deep.

Nando is frustrating at the moment but let's be honest, how can a striker do anything with that level of service.

[tsb]

I suppose his interview could have been worse, he could have said... "After the highs in the last week with securing new owners and getting the debt lifted, it's nice to finish the week on a low."

No pace in the side.

Only when Babel came on did we look like we had pace!

No width in the side.

How can you play with 'no wide players' and expect Carragher and Konchesky to provide our deliveries from open play.

No shape in the side

We don't look like we have any shape! When Rafa was in charge you could clearly see what everyones role in the team was.

No belief in the side.

We don't have any belief and that stems from the manager. Our best player Torres (admittedly off form) looks like he does not want to know!


No direction from the manager.

He's not out there shouting/screaming and encouraging his players.

Truely awful!

The 2 worst players in our team are Paul and Raul signed by Roy!



We cannot give him until January, he must go now.

That last part is not true. Meireles and Konchesky were far from the worst players on the pitch. Cole, Maxi and Lucas stank the place up.

Nothing he can do. Being up front on his own is mission impossible, hoofing those long balls to a lone striker (as we did almost the entire first half) is only going to lead to him being frustrated.

Rafa's system was setup to give him his chances, Roy's isnt and it's worrying.

He don't need to sell Torres. Torres will just put in a transfer request and leave and I would understand 100% why he would do it. Why stay and play for a club with no ambition because we would show a lack of ambition if we keep Roy.

If we want to move forward then Roy need to go. If we want to keep our best players then Roy must go. Player after player will leave, no doubt about that.

[spanky]

Looking at the next few weeks, we have a load of games we should be picking up max points excluding the chelsea and spurs game.

however, with roy in charge and the way we're playing it looks a minefield of bad results.

Roy Hodgson has played, by my calculations (with a bit of help from Sky's website)

77 away games in the Premiership, winning a mighty 12.

Giving him a highly dubious 15.5% win ratio when on the road.


HE IS A DISASTER.

Blackburn Draw
Bolton Loss
Chelsea Loss
Wigan Draw
Stoke City Loss
West Ham Win (yes, win)
Tottenham Loss

But Roy will be sacked before West Ham.

[vonk]

I understand everyone's frustration but who are we going to get? I agree that Roy looks out of his depth but tbh I couldnt give a **** what he says in interviews. It's all crap anyway.

Pellegrini is a huge risk, he has never managed in the Premier League.
O'Neill - Long ball merchant, goodbye passing football.
Owen Coyle - plays great football, has turned Bolton around but never managed in Europe or at a big club.
Kenny - Liverpool legend, but his last few management jobs were poor. Has been out of the game too long for me. These decisions have to be made based on your head not dreams.
