..interesting. Do you think it’s down to motivation more than lack of ability? Allardyce suggested it was confidence. I don’t know what it is.

I believe they have ability, at least more than what I saw today. Confidence is definitely missing from the players without doubt. But some of the passes were atrocious causing untold problems. It was the seeming lack of urgency which makes me question the motivation factor.

When are we going to start a game on the front foot.

You would think 2 new signings and on paper an attack minded team would galvanise the players, against a team in the relegation places. Alas our hopes were dashed. Walcott must wonder what he has come to, from arsenal team who play football the right way, creating numerous chances each game, with quick incisive passing. Welcome to Everton Theo!
 
Everton are shocking. When you buy average players and have an average manager you get to be average. However, we are well below average and that is down to the manager and players!
Watching Everton now is so boring. We can't even get a shot on target most games. Shocking!!!!!
 
Like there's a fantastic first 11 in this bunch of players. Such quality does be left out. I am never happy with teams we pick or tactics we administer, haven't been since Martinez first season.

You are the kind of fan who complains when the players play sideways and back and complain when not everything comes of.

I want to watch more than just safe football for 90 mins every week.

It obviously doesn't improve our chances of picking up points so why not forgive the mistakes if it means we get to watch some goals and excitement.

You have no idea what kind of fan I am.
I complain when we play awful football and eek out lucky draws with west Brom at home and muster 2-3 shots on target over 3 games.
We aren't picking up points.
Take the blinkers off.
 
It’s getting harder to be positive, but I will give it a go, 1 more point on the board. got 28 now, only need 12 more to get to 40 points, we have 14 more games to play, so that’s either; 4 wins and 10 defeats or 12 draws and 2 defeats!

I don’t know which is worse :pint2:(n):red::hayee:.
I just want us to get to 40 points, then the season will be officially over

Mad how we haven't got a single player who can receive the ball under pressure and not be absolutely terrible and lose it immediately.

The passage of play at the back between kenny and Holgate in the second half had trouble written all over it, the whole team is lacking in confidence and it's very difficult to watch. I don't know what manager could come in and shake it up. The talk was of getting Marco Silva in but wheels are off at Watford too.
 
We got cheated big time with that hand-ball though. A clear one-on-one was stoped by a very intentional hand ball.
