Match Thread Hull v Everton 30/12/16 KO 8pm

[witchdoc187]

Not too arsed about the result if I'm being honest. We've been gash for months, I'm just looking forward to seeing what happens in January.

My thoughts exactly mate. To be 7 th with this disjointed mess of a team is actually not such a concern. If we are the same this time next year I'll be concerned

Can nobody not see he is a sh.. manager for our club !!! He has NO PASSION for us.I am not saying he is a bad manager ...but.... FFFFFF Him off now.No soul ,pride or passion for us.Never thought I would say this but........Imagine.... Martinez in charge.... with money and backing and deadwood gone(and having the funds at hand to get rid of the dead wood) WE hounded MARTINEZ (AS FANS)out of our club. Did we FFFFF .. The old boys in the dressing room did.You don't go from nearly beating Arsenal to 4th ... beating Man U H/A ETC ETC ETC TO BECOMING A BAD MANAGER.It's DOWN TO THE GINGER CLOGG HOPPING ffeeerrrr AND HIS OLD BOY NETWORK OF BRING MY MATE AND MY BROTHER WITH ME.If it was not us Sammy Lee would have been with him. This is the time for Everton to grow a set...... give it to Big Joe sat along side Dunc... and watch them unleash the new dogs of war.

Ah so it was the players fault Martinez got the push (the 'old boys network') but its all Koeman's fault they're still rubbish?! I know you were probably well pissed when you posted this nonsense but you really need to take a step back and look at what your saying here. Big Joe (a man who has been out of the game for year's now!) and Dunc?! A man who has zero experience as a manager?! Give me a break! Why can't you understand that it was 2013-14 that was the fluke, not all three seasons since!

We all might have hated Moyes and Martinez at some point in their terms of managing us.We as fans are a fickle bunch and that is our choice.However.... they both bought in to us.. and got us.This bloke does not.Get shut asap

Martinez didn't buy into anything, he just knew to say the right things and half of our moronic fan base would lap it up and love him regardless of results. One of Koeman's biggest faults (at least according to some on here) is he's honest and doesn't talk endless bubbles because he mistakenly believed that our fans were adults and would appreciate the honesty rather then endless agenda driven lies, Clearly he was very naive on that score!

We need to up the tempo badly, show abit of urgency from the first minute. Everything is too slow, trickle passes to each rather than hitting them with abit of pace, slow to react to 2nd ball which is vital you win, slow taking throw ins! Does my head in..

The game was crap more than entertaining

Hull were typical relegation candidates but good enough to earn the point

We were mediocre at best

Koeman does not deserve his pay cheque

I doubt we will ever improve on being best of the rest, so 7th at best

We have the ginger Moyes so although an improvement on Martinez, I will not be carried away

To be honest I emotionally checked out after the latest derby defeat. I'm just not able to take it for a while.

We are not going to be Champions League and we are not going to be relegated. We will bounce round mid division suffering the routine derby dismissal at Anfield and the routine FA cup reversal at Wigan or Birmingham and them it'll be summer.

The season's over.

I wasn`t aware wild boars played football. Is this some kind of alternative universe?

Indeed Sir.... NCAA Bowl season.

One would be hard pressed to deem what the Razorbacks displayed in last nights second half as football though....

There are now so many bowl games even we would qualify.

In a good run of play against bottom of the league club, with an attacking sub about to come on...

Score an equaliser.

Switch your sub for an extra centreback instead and play for the draw.

Jesus.

....it was an odd substitution. I thought the result was about right.

Yet another terrible performance.

This lot of players are too old and lack fitness and enthusiasm.

I am far from sure that Koeman is up to the job either.

 

[samsonthedog1]

After sleeping on it i feel positive to be honest. 7th with this squad isn't that bad, and certainly better than last year.

Just look at the teams and the spending power of the clubs above us.
Just hope in January/summer we see real changed in the squad.

With a game on Monday, Koeman wanted to spread the load across more members of the squad.

But with Funes Mori and Holgate available, I'm not sure why he selected Williams and Jagielka to play together.

Snodgrass certainly had the ability to exploit the free kicks we gave away.

Surely Koeman wanted to change to a more attacking formation at the end, with three at the back, Coleman and Baines as wingbacks and Lukaku and Calvert-Lewin at the front.

But he does seem reluctant to make changes. He had Davies and Funes Mori ready to come on just before Hull scored.

Hull must be well pissed off they didn't win, because we were gash !!!
