I’m fine with that. We should be critical. The set piece defending is frustrating. It is indeed right to ask questions about his job. I wasn’t in favor of him coming and not blown away by some of his tactical decisions, especially midmatch. But I just want to be fair and evaluate him within context. He deserves credit for quite a bit honestly.

If others don’t want to use stats in any way, that’s fine. Go watch a couple of our matches last year. That’s what he’s been dealing with.

He's got 6 players of his own in the first team, so it's not all on last years lads. Anyway, being fair is one thing if he's showing us something but to me he looks like he's lost, like he's realised how big the job is and it's too big for him. He could at least show some fight, instead of mumbling and looking perplexed.

Plus he's started to publicly blame the players, we all know how this will end, just do him a favour and drop the hatchet.

The players aren't getting off scott free either but we are stuck with them until we can shift them unfortunately.

This is very harsh, and i'm seeing it a lot. He's Portuguese and has only been over here about 18 months, he probably doesn't find it particularly easy to give detailed answers to a lot of questions. Wenger was still mumbling answers last year after about 20 years in the job. It's a low blow in my opinion.

I don't really mean his language per se, i mean how he seems to be not making eye contact and looking down, like he's embarrassed. Not having a pop at his language skills, that's not my thang.

But that's probably why he's mumbling, which you've picked up on. He's not mumbling any more than he was earlier in the season, and he's not looking down anymore than he was when he was at Hull or Watford. That's his way from what I've seen, there was an article just after he took over saying players love him but it's difficult for the press to see why because he's quite guarded and can be spiky. It's nothing to do with pressure getting to him, it's just his personality.

Ok boss, I don't have a psychology degree, just an observation.

It seems to be a Portugese thing tbh, all the managers seem to be quite guarded but quite jumpy at the same time, Silva, Jose, AVB, etc etc. the only one i have noticed who is quite calm is Nuno
 
Neither do I, i'm also just making an observation. I thought by posting your thoughts on a public forum you were inviting discussion but no worries if not.

I was, I don't have a counter argument, I'm agreeing, if that's what you see, fine, I can't offer something as fact because I don't know. I was trying to light heartedly step back from the debate, sorry if it came across a bit sarcy, not my intention.
 

Imagine the show of support if in our next home game (not City), we actually came out in support of the manager. What a boost for Silva and a message to these awful players. Imagine if the fans started singing Silva’s name or god forbid hung a banner getting behind the manager rather than calling for his head again. I still believe there’s a good coach in Silva he’s just caught in the Everton downspiral that the players produce which results in managers getting fired.

But is he the man to pull himself and Everton out of this 'spiral' ?
