Ok who?

I am talking proven Premier League winner, Bundesliga winner or La Liga winner that we can get hold of based on where we are as a club right now. We have money but we are not Man City or Chelsea so the job is more difficult than the likes of Mourinho or Guardiola have faced with the big clubs (& unlimited budgets) they have managed.

It was. Blind panic.

There was nothing blind about it. We were leaking 2-5 goals every single game and could hardly score from open play. We hadn't practiced defending all season, no pace in the team, Unsworth guessing throwing different players and formations in every week hoping something would stick. It was the worst I've ever seen an Everton team in my life. It's mad how a few wins has made everyone forget what an absolute crisis we were in not too long back.

We will have to buy a left back as well. At the moment our entire set up seems to be geared to protecting that side defensively and as a result we have no one high enough up the pitch to begin a counter attack on that side. Our £45m playmaker is also having to do the left back's defensive duties, and cannot split himself in two and be a creative threat at the same time. It's the key position to address for me.

Obviously it would be better if we went for a natural left-back mate, I wonder though, if when Coleman is back, then Kenny could move across and do a job at left-back (just thinking about the cash situation if Allardyce prioritises a striker as his main target, and we've got a small kitty)

So you don't want us to buy players that could result in us being able to play decent football, but you want him out because the football is crap? Ok.

It’s Sam Allardyce mate. He won’t buy players with an intention of playing decent football.

Don’t got growing jay jay okocha at me either. That’s so long ago that most evertonians had seen us win a league. The man is a dinosaur who’s footballing mantra is to avoid losing as opposed to trying to win.

Crazy isn't it?

Its like the past 6 months didn't happen. Now we have the weird scenario where a manager has came in and got much needed points on the board and has at least made us look like a professional outfit and he is getting slated for it.
