Everton v Sunderland. Boxing Day @ 15.00.

[when i score we riot]

Even the half-time break is unwatchable.

 

[Christiffa25]

Anyone shocked by this?

Nope me neither

Never easy being a blue

Could see this a mile off

This sort of thing happens to all teams on occassion, just one of those things unfortunately!

 

[Tommy Chong]

Now we will see how good of a manager Roberto is...

Down to 10 men, a goal down, at home to the bottom of the league...

 

[DrEFC]

Osman was worse than pathetic, but the whole team has their head down. Lukaku the worst offender

 

[Del]

Lets all go and post in the "Can we win the league" thread

LOL

 

[davek]

Barkley on 2nd half to run himself into the ground chasing this, when the whole idea of leaving him out was to rest him.

An absolutely clueless decision by Roberto.

You DONT drop Barkley for Osman: Palace and now this unfolding ****ing disaster story.

 

[Saliba]

It's been a while since i've been this frustrated. Even with a man down, they're not really showing that much attacking intent and seem content to pack in behind the ball which is making things a million times harder. Not looking good.

 

[Zorse]

come on Lukaku you better score today cos you haven't for like 5 games.

 

[Librarian]

Come on Blues, turn this around FFS

 

[Jimmy Flangemoth]

Why did Bob start Osman? Barkley should start all day fckn long. Crazy.

 

[allen]

I'm feeling good about this.

I'm thinking a 2-1 win, sending confidence even higher as we come back from a goal down with ten men to win.

This is what Martinez has done to me.

 

[lungissimo]

Not good. Need to get going, gonna be a big ask.

A draw would be a very good result now.

 

[griffla]

Now it's time to Martinez to show us what he's made of.

Meanwhile, I'm gonna sit in a corner and cry for 15 minutes.

yep, catalan craziness needed. push oviedo & seamus onto the flanks, alcaraz on and 3 at the back with barkley on to be the trequarista. Whatever happens we need a miracle here, cmon roberto

 

[bluenorthwarrior]

Martinez made this disaster - playing that daft **** Osman and benching the best player in the country right now.

A Moyesesque managerial decision.

Really? Small squad, no more cm back up, big game in 3 days against a close rival and playing the worst team in league at home. Not a bad decision to rest a key player IMO, couldn't predict the turn of events.

 

[Big Doug]

Sick of martinez playing ****ing osman why can't he see he's ****e? Need a win here and an appeal for Howards red or at best we will pick up draws in these next two games.

I also thought a red was 1-2 games if not violent conduct
