Port Said Red Posted October 19, 2017 Report Share Posted October 19, 2017 Jesus they look a poor side. Lyon didn't have to get out of 2nd gear for 95% of the game. Could this finally be the year they lose top table status? I would be amazed if there are 3 teams worse than them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m surprised at how badly they’re playing at the moment, but come May they’ll be nowhere near the bottom of the table. Wheather Ronald Koeman is still there is another matter though.

EmersonsRed Posted October 19, 2017 Report Share Posted October 19, 2017 Spurs v2... Sell player for huge money; buy a load of shit to replace... Admittedly 1/2 came good, but took some time for that. I've never seen a Premier League club with so little pace by the way, they have no explosive talent at all.

Shtanley Posted October 19, 2017 Report Share Posted October 19, 2017 Too many slow central attacking midfielders. Klaasen rooney and Sigurdsson all bought in the summer what was Koeman thinking. No pace out wide whatsoever. Need Bolasie fit to have any hope of doing anything this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigTone Posted October 20, 2017 Report Share Posted October 20, 2017 Koeman will be gone very soon is my guess. Would they take Moyes back ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Welcome To The Jungle Posted October 20, 2017 Report Share Posted October 20, 2017 For me this is classic transition period. Koeman is a good manager and the team will come good. For me Everton have to accept that this season will be below par but next season will be much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koeman is definitely on thin ice and after night the ice is even thinner but as for Moyes - he's the favourite for the Scotland job. I can't see him going back to Goodison.

Midlands Robin Posted October 20, 2017 Report Share Posted October 20, 2017 The football on both sides of Stanley Park doesn't look too great at the moment. Both managers have the potential to do great things but haven't found the right balance of players to achieve it. Everton just look poor and Liverpool are inconsistent.

BCFC Rich Posted October 20, 2017 Report Share Posted October 20, 2017 I can see him going but it would be ridiculous. They had a ridiculously difficult opening to the season. And it artificially makes the season look worse than it is. They had a poor result against Burnely in game that was akin to our loss against Birmingham and drew with Brighton away. All the other games were against top 4 sides or they got a win. If you are going to sanction huge transfer activity you gave to give the manager time (dare I say our season looks like a good example of this). Koeman is a good manager that hasn't changed but in the ridiculous world of football these days he will probably go soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also sold Lukaku, Barry, Deulofeu, Cleverley and McGeady - Their net spend is definitely more like 50m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EnderMB Posted October 20, 2017 Report Share Posted October 20, 2017 Honestly, I'm loving it. I don't hate Everton. I actually quite liked them when Moyes was in charge, and they seemed to have something about them during the start of the Martinez era, and with the money now in the Premier League they've gone from spending nothing to having a proper budget. During the summer, they seemingly made some great signings, and everyone was pushing them for a top four position. Lukaku was gone, but they signed well across the board, and looked solid. Everton have showed that football isn't a game of top trumps, and that happiness and confidence are the most important things in football. This isn't a new lesson. Leicester were better than the sum of their parts when they won the Premier League, and Argentina have been worse than the sum of their parts due to negativity around the national team. Hell, you could argue the same for England - if the fans and the press were behind the team in a nice way, perhaps they would have at least made a final in the last decade or two.
