Everton v Stoke. Boxing Day at 15.00.

[when i score we riot]

We better give 'em a real run for it in the europa league, as we're not qualifiying for anything other than the Championship with this sort of play. Sickening, these last two matches. Downright rotten.

 

[jackyboy]

Days like this I am absolutely made up I don't go.

 

[sageyefc]

Naismith really shouldnt be a starter week in week out, need to pick and choose what matches plays and not squeeze him in every week

Barkley needs to stop expecting to have all day on the ball.

Miralles only looks lethal when he plays on the left, looks a different player when hes on the right

 

[paulus]

We are [Poor language removed] . Nothing all [Poor language removed] game , not one created passing chance.

 

[moosed]

Someone get Martinez' post match interview quotes in here

Effort, commitment, decisions didn't go our way.

 

[Walken]

hibbert at left back was the turning point for me support wise, his obsession with barry and how slow he was to bring stones in was concerning though, now he genuinely needs looking at, still gets to the end of the season but this is some real poor stuff

 

[bluebud]

Don't worry lads... retro wallets on sale...

Shocking timing that by the club given the money fans have just paid out to watch that durge.

Looks like we're back on the Moyes schedule. We'll turn it around once we get Sir Landon of Donavon on loan in January

Fairly pathetic that. First half we at least looked like we gave a monkeys, second half we created absolutely no clear cut chances. We've got some serious problems at the moment that need addressing.

 

[Darth Toffeeman]

No chance of him getting sacked

Then sadly, we must brace ourselves for relegation.
He has no plan B. The complete lack of set piece practice, especially in this league, is criminal.
Slow, unadventurous tripe. We are like children having our dinner money pinched at the moment.
He can talk a good game, but ultimately he is a very limited football manager.

 

[RFUS]

Seen enough already though haven't we? He's like a lame rabbit in the headlights.

As I said before, he has been better than Jags this season. Fair enough if you want to ship almost the entire central defence out at once, but for me Jagielka is the bigger problem.

Fact is, Alcaraz looked a lot better than Captain (not so) Fantastic.

 

[Merseyzig]

Each time I have gone the match this season I came away thinking "well, they won´t get much worse than that". Not sure if I can stomach many more displays like that. Begovic must have had the easiest game of his season.

 

[Abraders]

We can't really blame the ref though can we? Obviously his decisions played a massive part but damn that was early on. We had all the time in the world to rectify it and we barely even got a shot on goal!

ffs ebepton

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

But we played the right way though lads, so we can't moan too much. The commitment was phenomenal, there was a real intent from the lads today. Naismith was really special.

 

[tsubaki]

i love you everton, but football has been ruined as a sport as far as i'm concerned. i mean could i really start tomorrow as a referee and be in the premier league in 2 years? they make it look you need a PhD at the age of 12 to be able to do this job.

That is the absolute worst thing about this game; that Martinez, the club and some of the players will be able to point to Mason and not be wrong when they point out how abject he was. He was only slightly less bad than them.
