The problem is the centre of the defence when was the last time we kept a clean sheet -JH stated he was confident of getting a run in the team - the fact is he has been woefull & made things a lot worse - Howard does not trust what is in front of him - Dufy Coleman & Victor need a chance also Vellios - DM seems set on picking his favourites!
 
Been a long time follower of GoT & esp. the incredible previews by Chico.

However, I am so frustrated & disappointed with that performance that I have decided to create an account and share my tuppence worth..(in no order)

To Moyles,

1) It is apparent to everyone in the stadium that Hitz clearly isn't fit enough to last the whole 90 minute. Why recall Barkley back from loan if you're not going to play him? I don't expect Ross to start but surely we can afford him 15-20 minutes at the end.

2) Pienaar needs to be dropped when Mirallas returns. Not sure if it's complacency, a lack of form or both but Oviedo has proved that he's more than capable to fill in. Play well or sit on the bench, simple. They're earning what I earn a year in the space of a week and if I performed in that manner at work I would expect the sack.

3) What exactly does Duffy need to do to deserve a start? Heitinga looks half the player of last season & as much as I love Distin and hate to admit, he's becoming a liability. Sylvain offers nothing apart from his pace & height. If that's the criteria then I might send my boy for trials. He's 6 ft 5 and can do the 100 in 11 secs flat. ****ehawk of a footballer but wouldn't go amiss in our current defence.

4) Howard. Take a leaf from United's book and give him set-pieces training like they did with De Gea. He should've swallowed that ball by Garrido before it even reached the back post.

5) What the actual [Poor language removed] is being said to the lads at half-time? We've utterly dominated the first half in the last two games, gone into the dressers and come out looking like my old man & his uncontrollable bowel.

These are just some of my concerns. I love Everton to bits and will still wake up at 4 am this week but I hope we sort it out & show Arteta what he's missing.

Good point. The other team gets told to press and we suddenly look like crap. No idea what's going on there and it's been the same for two weeks in a row. We just look tired come half 2.

i like pretty much everything said here

You know what? I'd be fine with this too. He's historically crappy at set pieces, crap crap crappy. More training time would be great, and he needs people all up in his grill when doing said training. Whatever it takes to get him out of the crappy form he's in right now I'm all for it. Including having Mucha do the same drill back to back and having Tim witness it. More focus Timmy, come on, know you can do it.

welcome to GoT mate, nice post and I agree with every bit of it
 
Phil Neville on twitter can't understand the negativity as we are 5th in the league!

Perhaps the 1 win in 7, 5 of which were against teams in the bottom half might be. 1 reason!

Fair play that he interacts with fans(not with me when I pointed the above out to him) but he does talk crap sometimes
 
I can understand your frustration tbh. Arsenal and Spurs are weaker than ever and you lot have played far better football than us. yet there's only 1 point difference. You have blown away alot of games where you have completely dominated. i do expect you guys to beat us on Wednesday night and Fellaini to get couple from set pieces. But in the end without being disrespectful your lack of composure will cost you

Another draw for me, 2-2. We just don't look like keeping a clean sheet

West Brom are beating the teams they should be beating. we are not. should we be content cos we are in 5th place? we should be a lot higher because we now face side that are not lower sides.

It will cost us it's the jekyll and hyde performances at the moment which are frustrating. We are playing teams off the park for 45 mins and then look like they were on the p!ss at half time and come back out like it's a sunday morning with a hangover.

I've been saying since so'ton game(i think it's in match thread) that i wasn't looking forward to the arsenal game as yoy have a habit of punishing us severely if we don't turn up and we are letting teams have a lot of chances against us.
 
Everton need a tune up. New spark plugs required. Hopefully, in the persons Felliani, Gibson, Coleman & Mirallas.

Pienaar, Heitinger need to be benched to get their minds right. Oveido needs more game time looks like a steal to me.

West Brom is last year's Newcastle. One season wonder (the season is not even half way through yet).
