No idea if the games not going his way Martinez,Besic off at half time two down,brings Stones on to go three at the back,left Deulofeu warming up far,far too long,Barkley had a mare but still one of the few players we have who can pull something out of the bag so he brings him off and leaves the defensive/anonymous pair of Cleverly/McCarthy on the pitch,Niasse?what's going on?could've even brought the Kone on to offer some support to Lukaku if he is still not up to speed,absolute joke yet again.
 
Just back from the match, it was one of worst performances of the season if not the worst. Lukaku was left isolated with nobody anywhere near him. Nobody was helping Lennon and Coleman when they got the ball, and Baines was useless on the other side. Besic was obviously ill or injured, a fit Besic would have been a real asset. I don't know what Barkley was meant to be doing, he just left Lukaku and the wingers to put the work in on their own. We should of brought Niasse and Gerry on around he 55th minute mark as that would at least help Lukaku and Lennon out. I still don't believe Martinez is the right man for the job, even though we have done well in the cups, it doesn't excuse our appalling season.

Since you were at the match could you clarify something that's bugging me because I couldn't figure it out from the tv audio. Were the fans singing "F off Martinez, Get out of our club" OR were they singing "Roberto Martinez, get out of our club"? You'd be amazed the things that will stick in my mind until I figure them out :D

There really is no excuse for only using two of your three subs given the position we were in for the entire second half.

Should it only be to send an axtra striker on go to try and batter the door down.

It was the Arsenal fans.

I couldn't make out who they wanted out their club.

It was Arsenal fans singing about Stan Kroenke. Only heard one song from us and that was about bringing Deulofeu on.

Imagine reaching CL every year and still wanting your board out.
 
Ha, well that's a turn-up for the books. Just googled it and it was Kroenke they were chanting at. Poor bastards have a hard life filled with failure don't they. (n)
 
.....we've beaten Chelsea and Man City at home in the cups this season with 'circumspect and safe performances'. That approach means sitting your full backs deep and a bank of 4 ahead of them. If you have quality ((Lukaku) in the top third you back them to score when a chance comes along.

I was chuffed against Chelsea because I thought the penny had dropped and RM had finally realised how to win a game. That feeling has somehow disappeared today. Suicide, especially without Barry.
 
...lots of fume but nothing different from what we've seen this season. 2nd goal was classic, full back getting forward and too far ahead of the CBs, one ball over the top and we are fully exposed. So often it's happened, tactical naivity.

Been our biggest downfall all season - our fullbacks have to learn to defend first and support the CB's. That should come from the training ground but looks like RM has forgone this training in favour of 3 hours of keepy-uppy followed by a hot yoga session.

He's a tactical bellend if he can't see why we keep conceding the way we do.
 
I have no feelings anymore, like the ending of a bad relationship, I dont care if we win the FA Cup to be honest, I just want us competing in the top half of the table and not having the worst defensive record in the Premier League, absolute bullshit we are under Martinez. At least with Moyes we had some pride in being tight defensively and weren't a [Poor language removed] embarrassment, we are Everton, even under Moyes I was proud,
