Pienaar and Jelavic have been pants for ages. £10m for them 2. Christ. Now wonder Bill keeps his hands warm in his pocket. Moyes out

Oh, for the love of...

Just got back from game, awful, absolutely awful. Worst game since the Middlesbrough game a few years back. We desperately need to drop Howard, Heitinga and Pienaar. Shocking all of them. I'd rather have Mucha or f*cking Ruddy who we let go. Heitinga has forgotten how to defend and keeps launching 40 yard hail-marys and none of them come off, Duffy in Heitinga out. Pienaar is Samson. Awful.

Anyone still think we can get 4th? anyone? Not a chance.

I can see us mid table soon with the run of fixtures we have got coming - these points dropped will haunt us -Is Coleman injured? as Radio Merseyside stated he was completely dropped out of the squad - no one overlapped today for us from right back Jags was woeful there if Tony Hibbert was on the bench surely he could have came on for the last ten minutes?
I just dispair we started playing as good as I have seen us play at the start of the season today hoof ball returned!

 

[MartSlinger]

Im really getting massively pissed off with Heitinga. How many chances does he need to have. Been ****e since he played against Leeds and hasnt looked like improving.

Part of the problem is that Moyes only trusts a small group of players and within that the only change he seems to make is to switch the wingers. Moyes is generally a reactive manager. He'll only do something about a situation in the final few minutes where a change can't make things any worse. He needs to learn to change things during the course of the game to ensure that we keep the upper hand.

He has said today that Norwich were always in the game at 1-0, so what could he have done differently? The options that he had on the bench were Mucha, Duffy, Gueye, Vellios, Kennedy, Barkley and Hibbert. If Hibbo isn't fit he could have gone with Duffy in place of the off-colour Heitinga. He could have withdrew Pienaar and put Vellios up front to give Jelavic support. He could have used Gueye, Barkley or Kennedy to put them on the back foot and to exploit space that they left as they pushed for an equaliser.

From what I heard on the radio it sounds like Holt was bossing Heitinga and that Johnny was giving away a lot of needless freekicks. Sharp suggested that Distin took Holt. Why didn't we give that a go? Rather than snuffing out problems or looking for ways to give the opposition more trouble it seems like Moyes just hopes that things fall our way. We're losing too many goals from set pieces and we're not converting enough chances. More needs to be done to rectify both situations.

Hopefully the complete BS myth that Heitinga doesn't hoof it out of defence can be well and truly f*cked off now. Also, hard man my f*cking arse. I hate his weak challenges with a passion. He's nothing on the other two. Nothing.

 

[Titus Bramble]

Frustrated. Frustrated with the mostly awful performance and frustrated with the 2nd shyte performance of the season by that ref at Goodison. This just shows how thin our squad is in terms of quality replacements.

If Fellaini, Mirallas and Gibson don't start on Wednesday we could be in for a long night.

Bingo.
I wouldnt be arsed if he hadnt of came out moaning about not playing. The fact is, he came out to the press moaning that he wasnt playing, gets played and is absolutely gash. If you are going to moan at least back it up.

JH needs selling in Jan - use duffy FFS he 5 games played last year & looked great! dropped for DM's favourites!

 

[Snoka]

Next match: Let Peanut start on the bench. Something is wrong with him. I don't know what.He f***s up almost every attack. COYB!!

Not sure about that, they aren't beating the worst villa side in history! Then again, we can't beat fooking Norwich

Retro day extended to the pitch as well it seemed as that was like watching 90's Everton at times. Really poor, should be finishing teams like that off. I knew as soon as Naismith over hit that simple cross to Jelavic that they'd go on and equalise. Johnny will be seeing Holt in his nightmares.

On the plus side Baines was his usual good self and Oviedo looked decent and did really well to set up the first goal (also, I'd never noticed how small he is!)

And Ijjy asks why I'm angry...

Yeah, Oviedo was alright. And Naismith who did is best match in the EFC jersey, TBH.

 

[slimspek]

I thought losing Coleman was a big blow. He and Mirallas are our right side without them we have no threat coming from there. Pienaar, Jelli, and Naismith should have been subbed and in that way I totally blame Moyes for the draw. They were bagged and ineffectual. Just woeful stuff from Johnny but at least Distin improved.

On the brightside Oviedo was fantastic for his first start. He slotted right in and did look out of place at all. He looks like he could be another really exciting player.
