Nick Barmby! 1-0 at Derby.

Another week, another disappointing result in the buildup to the biggest game of Everton’s season. The Blues drew 1-1 today with Watford to drop further still down the table, this time to fourteenth in the table. A largely wasteful performance was the theme today from the Blues, as has become...

I just don't know if I 100% agree. Money's great, but Mourinho has managed in CL finals, has won titles. I don't think the club will be ambitious enough for him if you ask me today. Now if the 100 million pounds is guaranteed to the next manager and no one leaves then that's definitely a...

Are people that think we can attract a Mourinho or Simeone serious?

Last season there was between 0 and 2 teams in the "mid table" section for most of the season. This year, there's many more, hence the change in perception when a win one week puts us 7th and a loss the next keeps us where we were at the start of the two week period. A bit more luck from...

Something tells me the same thing will happen with Leicester late on in the season, against the teams they're fighting with for the title.

Style vs. substance: let's look at the teams I think we're ahead of talent wise but are ahead of us in the table. Number of 1-0 or 2-1 wins for West Ham: 3 Number of 1-0 or 2-1 wins for Crystal Palace: 6 Number of 1-0 or 2-1 wins for Southampton: 2 Number of 1-0 or 2-1 wins for Watford: 4...

Not to say Martinez should stick around in the event that this happens, but maybe, just maybe, this isn't that good a squad? I hate to draw it out and go position by position BUT: Howard is for the most part past it. Joel is good, and I think Martinez should use him more often. Coleman is not...

13/1/2013 - Manchester City 0-0 Everton, 28 points, 11th in the table After resting most of the starting eleven at the weekend, John Stones took over at right back for the injured Seamus Coleman and Leon Osman came in for also-injured Tom Cleverley. Muhamed Besic managed to keep his place...

Matched them and then some. If they hadn't scored I would've said it's there to be won, but I think another goal for either side is coming.

But at some point, the defense has to improve if he wants a long term future here don't you think? For a club of our stature, we should be "near the top" as you say, but 11th is becoming increasingly unacceptable.

I'm closer to wanting him out this year than I was this time last year. And I never thought I'd say that after some of our performances this season.

It's true! Just one away loss this season, Arsenal.

26/12/2015 - Newcastle 0-1 Everton (Cleverley 93’), 26 pts, 9th in the table A wintertime trip to Newcastle has brought back multiple victories in the past few seasons, and the Blues hoped to make their way back into the European discussion after disappointing results against Crystal Palace...

7/11/2015 - West Ham 1-1 Everton (Lanzini 30’, Lukaku 43’) For a matchup with a team that is above Everton in the league, the Toffees more than held their own against a hot West Ham team having a start as excellent as they could have asked for in the summer after hiring Slaven Bilic. Everton’s...

I think Browning can cut it at the Premier League level. He's still young, just slightly less so than Galloway.

I figure we can give Lennon the benefit of the doubt given he's not a right back, he still contributed offensively despite being mediocre defensively.

22/9/15 - Reading 1-2 Everton; through to fourth round of Capital One Cup Fresh off a game where the Blues managed to look menacing but bereft of goals against Swansea, what does Roberto Martinez do? He listens to the fine folk at GrandOldTeam.com, that’s what! You want wingers? Boom! Aaron...

Think it's a goer, hopefully this means a switch in playing style to put both Yarmolenko and Mirallas on the pitch at the same time. Both talented players who can (in Mirallas's case) produce at this level.

At halftime I criticized Southampton over commending the performance, very glad to see I had to eat my words at full time. Looked a lot like the team we saw in season one under Martinez, and if we find a solution to play quickly with the ball at home that's a recipe for a top 6 finish.
