Alan Smith - 'you feel like a player like Delph has been sorely missed'

That's where we are right now, folks.

Exactly. I can't believe people are being so optimistic. We are coming at this from such a low base. The foundations have been laid by other clubs. We need to rip it up and start again.

Proof, if ever any was needed, that throwing money at a problem so rarely fixes it.

This has been shockingly bad! We have been a mile away from them all game, the whole team isn’t good enough! They are playing around us way too easily, we can’t defend, our passing is woeful and we have shown no passion. Our lack of quality is as alarming as the lack of effort or intelligence. Nothing good to say at this point!

We have not been good enough in any department today a total shambles

 

[Smodger]

The players that just keeps on embarrassing some of them players have no shame.

 

[everton fan number one]

We must be the worst teams in the Prem at absorbing pressure.

Mina's the only defender with any stature. Holgate's pretty good as a DM but can't run the defence. Keane's a knob.

 

[Dharma]

The one thing this team knows how to do, and that is FOLD.

 

[Uncle Vitor]

I’ve just read that Chelsea have SEVEN first team players missing for this.

And we’re getting thrashed.

On the manager and his negative tactics this is

 

[Rook]

I'm going to start questioning Carlo if he continues to play Gomez and Davies together in midfield, it's a very very bad pairing, Davies just isn't good enough full stop, he won't get a game next season.

Gomes back to his only show up once a month thing and still he's our best midfielder.

 

[longers]

Some of our fans needed a reality check tbh, shame it’s been such a brutal one

 

[Jim Hopper]

Sigurdsson is a waste of a shirt, coward.

Rather Gordon played

Think of every worst midfielder you have seen play for Everton in your life time and I bet every single one would be a better option than this £50m bag of crap Sigurdsson.

 

[riddick]

Great corner lads

 

[Milkman]

Definitely written into Sigurdsson's contract that he has to play 90% of games he's available for.

 

[Blue Neon]

Holgate isn't even looking at the ball, gets turned around and just tries to hold Giroud.

Can take a few years out now! Go clubbing, have a harem of girls, few games of pool etc I've got a nice little 5yr contract! Thankyou Everton.!!!!

 

[Tin-Tin]

Holgate has been one of the worst today, as good as he has been all season this has been grim, they all have though.
It's just a day to write off and move on

Suppose when the midfield are holograms and your facing 5 opposition players coming at you in waves, your bound to be all over the place.

What the [Poor language removed] was that Gylfi? I'm not kidding when I say I wish we got rid of him and kept Klassen.
