Correct, Keane had 3 goal line clearences. We did nothing going forward. Couple of pot shots from Gana and what should've been a pen for Sigurdsson when he was pulled back. We looked a touch more dangerous when Mirallas came on.

It's infuriating when obvious tweaks, like playing with more width, are hardly being utilised by the bloke earning more than hundred times more money than any of us.

I know Rhino's only game was a dead rubber against Norwich, but we looked exciting and pacey...I miss that thrill of watching us look dangerous.

Ha! Del Boy currently running riot for Barca in the CL....an assist already ...but not good enough for Everton. Mind you Barca were always going to take him back.

Bbc article has headline 'koeman says he has total support of the board'.

Well then see you all next season again, hopefully something might happen then because this season is over

Not, that was a rough guess. But by a week tomorrow we could be out of two of the three cups and in the relegation zone. He'd be very uncomfortable it that happens. I'm desperate for him to win all three.

I was listening to the Echo podcast earlier and Osman was on talking about moment that shaped seasons in his time, especially seasons we started slowly. Things like the Neville tackle on Ronaldo and going away to Bolton and winning with a last minute winner the following Wednesday. Problem is we have no character and seemingly no spirit.

I was hoping the sloppy win against Bournemouth might have been the turning point.

I want to win all matches too mate, if we are winning I've no complaints and he keeps his job. Problem is i see us losing far more than winning unless he massively changes who he picks and how he sets us up.

didn't we lose the next two in a row? Fail to see how that could be a "turning point"

Not sure, I know we lost to Liverpool and Newcastle back to back prior to Christmas, but then we went on an incredible run.

Wouldn't read too much into mate - trying to cover himself mate - lose the next couple and he will be dead man walking

If we fail to win both our next 2 games he will be sacked. And rightly so.

But just win tomorrow. And Sunday. And the cup for flip sake.

We won’t win the next 3 games it should be curtains if we don’t win tomorrow really but this is everton and they never fail to disappoint every other fan in the league. We are a laughing stock right now I mean come on even Leicester are sacking managers and one of them had not long won them the premier league. If they back him sooo much why leave him with out the striker and defender he so despratly wanted? Just be done with it sack him, pay him off and move on. They are risking the fans turning on the board properly like united fans did with the glaziers.

People can slate Martinez all they want, but it definitely wasn't worse than this. At least our games had something happening and we actually did something.record points total, two semis (should have been a final really, then who knows what). We won at old Trafford and well, technically won at Stamford bridge and had an enjoyable Europa run until the last game.

Under koeman we've had 1 highlight, that 1 home game vs city. Nothing else has been enjoyable/entertaining. I've been bored by a lot of the wins, it must be said.

Couldn’t of put t better myself. The guy is well over payed for what? Well making us somehow worse then Martinez which I never thought I would say. Martinez says phenominal and moon head says but okay. Wonder if they’re best mates and planned to ruin Everton haha

That's just bollocks. Brighton had us on the ropes a few times, a better team would've scored more than once.

And they will...that's why 87% of us want him out.

I had to read that particulate passage twice, Doc.

Unbelievable stuff from this fraud.

Sure under the Moshiri/Koeman/Walsh regime we spent 140 million quid for 16th place, rubbish football and expected loses.A football fan needs hope and encouragement, something to look forward to.Koeman has destroyed all of that.This dullard spent 140 million quid in the summer.Has us near the relegation zone and then he has the neck to say things like be happy 7th place.That's all we can achieve.The man has no sense of love for us as a club and we in turn have no love for him.

Come now TJ, how many games did we score 3 or more goals in in the 2nd half of the season at home? He made goodison enjoyable again and at the very, very least we were beating teams we should be beating.

I’m no Koeman fan, mate. Didn’t want him here in the first place but he must be given a fair amount of time and I don’t think we’re at the yet were we should sack him.

Just give the guy a chance to turn it around, mate. No guarantees he will but my point is there was enough there last season to suggest we could kick on.
