Match Thread Millwall v Everton, FA Cup 4th round, Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

Zonal marking.

Those 2 words have been our plight this season.

I have backed Silva from day dot but my patience is wearing thin. We get the "he's great" soundbites from the players but ultimately, that looks like a squad of players that have downed tools.

Oh so similar to Martinez's final run in.

The only good thing that can come out of today's shambles is Silva leaving it must be getting closer, I thought it couldn't get any worse than Koeman s time here today's result has just tipped it that way for me. Should have kept Rooney for one more season, how Silva if he stays can sort this mess out I have no idea, but I just don't think he will.

 

[Bilko]

wtf, defending high free kicks coming into a box, and the coaches can't work that out. zonal marking my arse !

 

[Lee Smith]

You just KNOW our next win will be against City. Everton, I hate you.

@davek im waiting...

Absolutely disgusting, to concede one would have been bad, to do it 3 times is shambolic. You can talk about the 2 blatant pens or the handball for the second all you want as a defence but there was absolutely no way we were deserving of anything from that game and that falls on one man's head and that is Silva, we have defended like excrement for 2 months and he has done little to change it bar the game at Burnley on Boxing Day. It's not good enough and something has to change, either the tactics or the manager and right now I'm starting to pull towards the latter

So what was it you thought he did different for the Burnley game?

 

[Stutheblue]

I was berating Digne for giving two stupid fouls away that led to two goals in the 2nd half. And they were stupid. But.....its what goes on at Finch Farm in terms of coaching defending at set pieces really. Thats the manager and coaches I'm afraid.
We were never going to win the cup with that team anyway....but thats not the point is it!!

 

[Marko VB]

Don't want the handball to be used as an excuse to be honest. Defend like that and you deserve to go out.

 

[LEONARD]

Sorry, but this torture is going to get worse.

We will get trashed- humiliated by the RS in the derby, and it's freefall for the rest of the season.

I can see us finishing just above the relegation zone.

We are witnessing one of the worst periods and team's in our glorious history.

There is something truly rotten at the heart of our club.

 

[eurosrees]

What are we to do until August now? Anyone?

 

[CaptainLyon]

Disappointing. Really should have done better. Club will back manager to end of season at least.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Watched the last half hour. Not sure what to say.

I would mate mate, I would say “God, Everton are absolutely cack, and a bunch of cowards”

 

[Deleted member 28206]

I want to kill myself. I'm serious.

Are you alright mate. PM open.

 

[c28]

Millwall deserved that. We have awful yet again. We just don't look like a team disgrace

No they didn’t they were as poor as us but the ref was even worse which takes some doing

 

[BlueStevie35]

What a sickening season

Out of all the cups
No chance of top six
Liverpool look like they'll win the league

Mikey, no offence to you mate but the latter point is not even on my list of worries this season
