Match Thread Arsenal @ home 12:45 Sat.

[Ollie d]

It was almost like none of the players had played together before,no movement and no interplay at all. They all looked like they had just done the great north run too.

 

[Everton 1878 NSNO]

They always believe they are on holiday the match before international breaks, if we check how many they have won before them I think it would come up nearly zero, poor work ethic, though we rarely beat Arsenal so they come already won in our eyes I think. It is just about fa cup in their minds. Romelu talking about leaving in the papers didn't help, plus our disastrous home form and awful defending doesn't help anyway.

 

[Everton 1878 NSNO]

International defenders should be able to say yo Martinez this teaching is wrong you are creating too much space here, we can't defend from this if we are doing a b c, we need to this, as they are being made to look like idiots on the pitch with no cohesion or clue about how to defend. Hard to blend attack with defence I suppose though that is role as manager, each team needs different tactics which he rarely tries, it's the same against most and as has been pointed out his win record is shocking if he doesn't actually know or acknowledge that then he is deluded in his philosophy. Some great wins and good team but so inconsistent that it's more infuriating to watch than any season in awhile. Should be like Tottenham more like west brom in quality at the moment

There are too many negatives drowning the positives.

 

[Dunc's elbow]

Martinez should have taken the 0-2 at half time. We then could have carried on listening to the drifters instead of watching that crap second half.

The Drifters half time performance was the best thing about the match!

Any truth in the chat that you were singing

Was worse than the West Ham game for me, in that at least against West Ham we looked in the game before things went wrong.

Yesterday was a none contest between a professional football team and what looked like a group of strangers in replica Everton kits.

Don't think so. There was no chanting or singing at all yesterday.

are u fing stupid? I havent said its great that we dominate and lose......

Bit offensive that tbf

 

[bring the ghost on]

If you can't see that we have been dominating almost all games this season, then you can't have watched many games this season.

By "dominating", do you mean "trying to bore the opposition into submission with side-ways passing"?

I think @Norwegian Cow missed your point & resorted to vulgarity mate.

It's not true mate, we barely had an 'Everton Everton Everton'. The arsenal fans liked speedo mick though.

what a bunch of clueless people we have here. we are playing some of the best football for many many years and you fail to see it..

I'd suggest you accept that despite playing some really football, most of us would like to see the team win at home occasionally... just four wins at home this season is totally unacceptable and if you think it is acceptable, then it's you that could be described as being clueless.
