How the hell can anyone watching Keane think he's a player, never mind a 30 million player?
He's not an athlete, he's not mobile, he's slow, his distribution is poor, he has an ungainly gait, he can't defend.... need I go on? This guy is actually in the England squad, wow. The usual case of a transfer fee dictating who gets into southgate's (and every England manager before him) squad.
Oh, I forgot, he started his career at Man U, so he must be good..............

Rooney was a huge mistake. He's done, and has been for a long time. I could see it, anyone with even a slight knowledge of football could see it. My Man U supporting in laws were telling me five years ago he was done. He's here to cash in his retirement funds. He needs to be told he's just not up to playing at this level anymore. He's not even championship quality these days.

Tom Davies is over-rated. Sorry folks. He lacks intelligence, pace and know-how. Yes, he's young and can learn, but he only gives endeavour and bite, that's about all. No real creativity.

Williams is a disaster - a disaster who can generally pass a ball (unlike jags and Keane) but who defends like a pub player.

sigurdsson......where to start?........ It's not his fault we paid 50 mill for him. But come on, he was never and never will be the creative player we need. Fooled by the 'assists' chart, no-one bothered to check that most of those assists were from corners and free-kicks. He's a cardboard cutout on the pitch, slow, immobile, uncomfortable on the ball and hasn't got a creative bone in his body.

Baines prefers the easy/safe option: to pass it square or back. He's hiding when he should be one of our leaders. We're missing Coleman badly. Couldn't see what anyone saw in schneiderlein either. Poor poor player.

The team is rotten to the core. A lot of this dead wood needs written off and shifted out of the club. If Walsh is responsible for this waste of money then he needs booted out of Goodison. I've never felt as disillusioned as an Everton supporter since the walker/smith/royle days. Slow tempo, slow players, no guile, no pace. We're total dung.

Need a new manager now and some players with a bit of guile and balls about them.

Don't know who the new manager should be. Not keen on dyche or allerdyce, but in our position can we afford to be choosey?

My choice would be silva or, dare I say it, Rodgers. I don't give a toss who he managed before. If he can save us, I'll take him.

This pretty much sums it up. We have no defence, no midfield and no attack. Unless something changes we will not stay up

It's like you voiced everything regarding Everton in my mind at the moment....all the way up to the Rodgers bit, fuk Rodgers!
 
Very much like the thread when Koeman came in.
Squad was passed its sell by date in many areas, or simply not good enough.
Massive improvement needed.
Koeman smehow made it much worse.
So now not only do we need to clear out the original mess, we need to boot out some of his additions.
 
Not sure again what the hierarchy was thinking in not getting some cover at left back. Expecting a 30+ year-old to cover all those potential matches is ridiculous. Certainly should have an understudy.
 
Sandro klaassen Keane and sigurdsson are new to squad an walked into a mess of the boards, previous manager and dof's making would reserve judgement till end of season.

The youngsters get a bye for me too as the toxic atmosphere is making them wilt under the pressure. Hardly surprising.

The players who need binning in Jan are the bad apples who are clearly a bad influence. Williams, mirallas, Schneiderlin.

In the summer Baines and jagielka have to go. Probably not causing trouble but too spineless to step up when the going gets tough.

There's loads of other who just aren't good enough but reckon the priority is those above, all on big wages.

Of course this whole problem ultimately is the board. they left a caretaker in place who feels he hasn't got the authority to sideline any players permanently.

We the fans would not have liked it, but they must know what's going on in that dressing room, in hindsight they should have not been aloof and got Allardyce in.

Show some leadership.

Hell they could have been ruthless and got him to sort the mess then binned him in the summer when better managers available.

But no they're fiddling whilst Rome burns.

Wasting time chasing Silva - the way we wasted time chasing giroud. Lost causes.

The whole club stinks.
