I don't know what game you were watching, but our set up going forward was nothing like it was earlier this year banging the ball around in our own half. It was quite hoofesque too me...hoof to Lukaku...hoof to Kone.

The only thing that remained consistent was dodgy defending. Zamora being turd helped Stones a lot today. Even so, he tried something different by pulling McCarthy into a much deeper role after we went up.

You clearly have an agenda if you are not seeing the changes.
My only agenda is to see us back fighting at the top end of the league.
You think he will get us there and i don't

I love the use of words to flower things up
Fighting at the top end of the league indicates we our in the mix every season to win the prem or a CL place
 
My view, for what it is worth.

Enjoyed the EL immensely. We have been brilliant, other than Thursday, and he can take some pelters for that. But not all of them.

In fact, I guess he has taken us further in Europe than since the ECWC?? Maybe not. Sure I will be put right.

This seasons domestic campaign has been very, very annoying at times, not least, over Christmas. To say the least.

But. He has shown, to me at least, that whatever went on in the Winter, (Eto'o/Disten? Dunno), SEEMS to have been addressed, and I have seen a more flexible approach in the last few weeks, maybe kick started by the fans in the Kiev home game, maybe not. But today was a ballsy, ugly, away win at a struggling side, which, lets be honest, could easily have been a draw, maybe a loss.

He appears to me to be have been jolted into some reality that this is not his hobby horse, this is Everton. And all that means.

Managers, not just in football, get respect from their charges when they show pragmatism, and an acceptance that sometimes, the most laudible of ambition, can be tempered in times of need. And listening to those around you can actually be a sign of strength, not weakness.

For me, the last 2 seasons will live long in the memory. (not over yet ffs, but you get the gist). Best PL performances for years in one. Best European performances for years in the other.

That must count for something. It does for me.
 
Relieved to get the win, but we were awful and only won because QPR are substantially more awful in every aspect of their club. Yet they still should have beaten us comfortably today.

Am I going to change my vote off the back of that? Am I hell.
 
Still out for me.

Happy with a win, but that performance didn't convince me and I still don't trust him he'll be able to fix things here long term.

Annoys me this notion that he's just using us to fulfill some sort of personal crusade. His principles are based on the fact that he believes playing a certain way can bring success.
