Most spineless set of players ever to wear the shirt?

I despise this team

I've see us play when we had the likes of James Beattie, Marcus bent and Jermaine beckford and this side is the laziest and most inept I've come across

We were more cohesive at the start of 2012 with a midfield / forward line consisting of Magaye Gueye, Royston Drenthe, Denis Stracqualursi, and Darron Gibson. Take a moment to let that sink in ladies and gents.
 
We’re akin to Spurs in the early noughties.

Players who come for the money, think they have made it and have no pressure.

It will only get better when there is a long term strategy formulated to allow us to build a team and long term plans
It’s not like it’s rocket science. There was serious questions being raised on here during the summer about the balance and quality within our squad over the last couple of windows.
Bolasie 25m
Scherderlin 22m
Klassen 24m
Keane 25m
Williams 12m
Tosun 27m.
I’ve included Tosun as we’ve signed him but he’s not ready apparently.
On a weekly basis we have nearly a 100m worth of players sat on the bench. We as a club can not afford that luxury. We say it every year, but there is going to need to be some significant shifting of these players in the summer, who offer very little and replace them with young hungry and talented players, who want to progress in their careers instead of the current crop being solely here, to receive a fat pay cheque.
 
This is worthy of it's own thread. Post your most disliked XI. Mine is incomplete, but definite inclusions would be:

Alcaraz
Williams

Bolasie
Nyarko
Schneiderlin
McGeady

Kone

Steve Simonsen

Ashley Williams
Cuco Martina
Claus thomsen

Morgan schneiderlin
Aiden mcgeady
James McCarthy
Gerard Deulofeu
Ross Barkley

Dominic Calvert Lewin (I know he's a kid but just can't warm to him)
Ibrahim bakayoko
 
Steve Simonsen

Ashley Williams
Cuco Martina
Claus thomsen

Morgan schneiderlin
Aiden mcgeady
James McCarthy
Gerard Deulofeu
Ross Barkley

Dominic Calvert Lewin (I know he's a kid but just can't warm to him)
Ibrahim bakayoko
How could I forget James McCarthy!

Going with a 3-5-2 now:

Bilic, Alcaraz, Williams
McGeady, Nyarko, McCarthy, Schneiderlin, Bolasie
Kone, Barmby

Just need a keeper.

TO BE FAIR Schneiderlein has been an absolute trainwreck this season but nobody "expected" that. 22m for him was widely regarded as good business.


Now I literally want a bus to run him over.

Completely agree with this when Pochettino first went to spurs he cleared far more out than he signed.

We need the same I’m guessing he got rid of the players that as you suggest think they have made it.

The issue with this, I believe, is that Poch was allowed a)time and b) to bring his own players in.

I think if we had a young progressive manager seemingly taking us on an upward trend, the fans would give them time. Not sure on the board.

In terms of bringing in players, well frankly, I dont think its clear who brings the players in.

I personally would hire a new DOF, implement a football strategy across the whole of the club so that players/managers can come and go but the identity remains.
 
1. Gerrard
2. Barratt
3. Pistone
4. Williams
5. Short
6. Nyarko
7. Gemmil
8. Alexandersson
9. Angell
10. Bakayoko
11. Schneiderlin

Could quite easily pick most of the current team though.
 
Seen some bad,bad teams in my time,however,you could see mostly they were trying their utmost to put things right,but this lot?they just don't want to know
 
This my most hated Everton players!

Tim Howard

Hottinger
Williams
