But Aguero and Vardy will still be at their clubs come the start of next season, that was my point.

We will sell Stones..

And buy Scott Dann, Shawcross.. And Troy Deeney.

Everyone happy.

Laying siege yes, but were we actually threatening. NO. Lennon was the only player putting any real pressure on their defense, so why take him off to replace with a like for like. At a goal down at home against one of the also ran's in the premiership you should be increasing the pressure on their defense where you are having the most joy, i.e. Lennon (mirallas,gerry)

Mate we'd hit the post a couple of times and any rational football fan watching that would bet Everton would turn it around.

Lennon was missing for most of the second half. I can see why he came off. The only difference is I'd have put Deulofeu in his place.

I know, this is my point, we're playing well and losing.

Imagine where we'd be if we were playing poorly then.

As for playing well...we huffed and puffed, but blew no houses down. we didn't make their keeper MotM by a long chalk.

'We played well and lost'

Getting in behind and then wasting it with a crap final ball isn't pressure... and it only got worse in the second half, Deulofeu on for Lennon was clearly the correct change... if you are going to take exception to changes then take exception to the abominations that were the other two subs

We should of brought Gerry on with Lennon, not instead of. Lennon was the only player who carried the fight today

I've not dug my heels in about nowt, I just want Everton, and Martinez to succeed. Funny that, being a blue and all?

Let's access in the summer is a line I've repeated all day. If we finish 15th, there will be some serious questions asked.

Don't try and categorise me as somebody who doesn't want Everton to do well, just because I have a different opinion to you and have used facts to back my points of our shockingly bad form. What a strange way to behave. I have stated all season I would live him to turn it round, but we are now mid February and it's still not looking too good.

I didn't see much of Lennon in the second half mate.

Lennon looked completely goosed in the second half and was nowhere near as involved (which is maybe why our second half performance was so much worse).

The thing with Gerry and Kone is that they are not impact subs, both play well from the start of matches, both have little effect when coming on and both should have started today against a team that clearly had absolutely no intention of ever attacking us.

If it hasn't changed by now it's not going to change, teams can have a dip in form but 26 games of the same crap speaks of a manager who's into deep.
