Everton Are A Soft Touch

[bullybeef]

Er, think you'll find Ped is from ToffeeTV not Everton TV.
He and you might think he's official, but he isn't.

i stand corrected.

 

[Gwladysstreetlad]

100% yes. The people who run this club would rather we be liked then be successful. Being well liked by other clubs is possibly one of the worst things you can be in the game, it means you're so unthreatening that nobody cares enough to hate you. Basically we're run by born losers who would have us just be bigger versions of Charlton or Fulham.

This is why we get trampled all over. It infects the club from top to bottom. No other club would of handled the Gomes and Son situation like we did. Our captain crawling into the Spurs changing room to play hung and kiss with the bellend who broken his teammates leg all because he shed a few crocodile tears. By doing that he handed Spurs all the ammunition they needed to make Son out to be the victim in all this and have Gomes almost be an afterthought. What has the club done since it happend? We've said almost nothing and been passive little cowards as usual. We deserve to be where we're with such a pathetic attitude and lack of spine.

YAAASS! Getting a suspension would help Gomes ankle heal better, for sure.

Then they could all take their shirts off and howl at the moon.

What are they even doing in training? I bet nobody's had to run up a sand dune dragging a tire in weeks!

Coleman should have beheaded Son on the spot!

I wish they did that type of resistance training , the players might just be able to last 90 mins for once.

Can we get the medicine balls out too ?

Spurs already got Son’s Red overturned. Everton would never have appealed that.
He unquestionably endangered an opponent with a deliberately reckless challenge. I can’t believe they got that overturned.

Look back to when Oumar became the first (& I think last??) player to get banned for conning the ref into a penalty, when A) There was definite contact & B) There were several much worse examples went unpunished in the following weeks.

We’ve falling foul of poor VAR decisions for 3 weeks running.


Yes, we are a soft touch.

 

[BernieH]

We are the divisions belly rubbers, soft underside, love having our tummy tickled.

 

[Lanolin]

I disagree.
The Guy from Everton tv PED said in years gone by someone would have lamped son not gone and given him a kiss and a cuddle.

Which years gone by? Because unless it was specifically between 84-87 (which I don't think Ped is old enough to remember properly) then that attitude didn't do us any good at all did it, because we'd have still won nothing. It's a dead weird thing to get hung up on this, genuinely strange.

Yes, we are a soft touch.

Lanzini of West Ham got done as well as Niasse, but don't think there have been any others since.

Says Everton would never have appealed, in next sentence talks about incident which Everton appealed. You just can't argue with these sort of facts.

 

[ToffeeTim]

This is nothing new. We've been soft for years.

Even in home games, we don't use Goodison to our advantage. Everyone in the country knows Goodison responds when they are provided with aggressive, high energy football where the team gets the ball forward early. But no, instead we insist on laboured possession based football and passive tactics.

We would rather be liked than win. We don't stand up for ourselves. We are an irrelevance in the modern game.

 

[Baines' left foot]

Just seen a great interview from someone from Everton TV who says Everton have become soft.

Couldn’t agree more.

Summed up by Sunday’s events where our Captain is consoling an opposition player... a player who has just committed a very cynical and dangerous tackle on one of our own resulting in a very serious injury.

We have a manager who is so meek and feeble it’s a wonder he can get through a day.

We have a chairman and a board who allow the club to get walked all over time after time without saying a dicky bird. Poor refereeing and VAR decisions... getting ripped off in the transfer market...not sticking up for our own.

Enough is enough!

Grow a pair Everton!!

You’re implying that our club need to grow some male genitalia in order to get back to where we need.

it’s 2019, mate. Sort yourself out you vile misogynist. My daughter has just read this and is disgusted.

I was so furious with that abysmally poor VAR penalty decision at the Brighton match that afterwards I sent Lee Mason a set of monogrammed towels.

Lanzini of West Ham got done as well as Niasse, but don't think there have been any others since.

So 2 “smaller” clubs fell foul of it. Player from over the park for instance committed much more blatant dives went unpunished.

Says Everton would never have appealed, in next sentence talks about incident which Everton appealed. You just can't argue with these sort of facts.

I wouldn’t have blamed the club for not appealing the Son one. There’s no question he endangered another player. I’m astounded it was overturned.


Yes, the club appealed the Niasse incident. It was a joke. If that had been a Liverpool/ManU player, it would have been overturned.
