Seems a bit of a shithouse comment to make seeing as Lukaku has been scoring of late but the fact that we blew our entire summer transfer budget on the lad has come back to bite us firmly on the arse.
 

We've been found out big time, opposition managers only need to watch us once to know how we attack, doesn't take a genius to figure out how to counter it.
At home agains supposedly poor teams, we have no idea at all, you can't use the 'parking the bus' excuse as all the top teams face this week in week out, and figure out how to combat it.
Barkley's confidence looks at an all time low, Coleman is being told to play the same style even when it clearly doesn't work. The players have to take some of the blame, but at the end of the day there looks to be zero tactics given to them. Martinez has to start earning his wages quick, if we had an English manager (or Moyes) is charge, people would be on his back a lot more, playing the same week in week out and not changing it is absolutely insane. If we lose at the weekend and other results don't go our way, we really could be dragged into a relegation scrap.

It hasn't, the fact martinez has completely knocked all chemistry out of the side by chopping and changing week in week out has done the damage imo. We had a tried and tested formula last season and he started to dick about with it playing 3 CAM's and no wingers etc. And the team looks disjointed and short of confidence
 
To say the season is over is bullsht! Things can change quickly, and we're "only" 2 points below Spurs and Liverpool, and 7 from 4th. On the other side we're also only 7 points from 18th too. -_- . Based on our recent performences and especially the one today, i know it doesn't seem like it is going to change, but i believe this is as low as it gets and Martines better face it and let the players know! The least they can do is give it a go and try.
Today was absolute shte and hopefully the worst performance we will see this season. Distin and Pienaar seem to be done for good.
 

Forget the boos. People have some kind of right to show their disapproval at a dreadful display. It wasn't like it was raining boos down on them. Although that might come with a few more displays. Goodison had lost its fear factor. The tempo of play is boo ring! Our home support has become probally one of the worst in the league. Not cause of the boos but because of the lack of any kind of fukin atmosphere. But it difficult cause we are really fukin boring now.
 
Everton goalscorer Romelu Lukaku:"We as a team have to improve. Last year, playing at home was our strength, this year it has been difficult."


That's because in the top leagues teams tend to figure you out and start playing to your weaknesses. Last season we also had the likes of Deulofeu to call on who would usually cause all kinds of havoc even if his final ball was poor at times. This season we are slow and predictable, teams now let us have the ball in front of them knowing we will find it hard to break them down.
