Ronald Koeman discussion

This happens sometimes, just have to learn lessons and move on. We all know this squads shortcomings :/

We lose 5 nil, but OK, we show phenomenal character to not concede in the last 20 minutes.

We can't deal with teams that press, are aggressive etc thinking anfield last year, which I believe will be a similar scoreline this year

Learn from it and make sure we in some way benefit from it. Many teams and managers have turned it around over the years following shocking defeats. I'll give Koeman the benefit of the doubt on this one. He's got his tactics totally wrong, not for the first half this season, but he's still very new to the job and Chelsea were utterly superb in pretty much every department. There needs to be a reaction though. As much from the likes of Moshiri as anyone else. We need to make moves in January.

Martinez got four points last season against Chelsea.

Get this Dutch clown out of our club.

Dreadful squad. Summer was the worst I can remember given the supposed budget tbh.

Ain't got the players to play his brand of hoofball

on days like this i can't help but wonder how an Unsworth team would've played today.

With the same set of players probably the exact same way.

Bunch of losers. Massive changes are needed and its not just the obvious players who need jibbing off.

This can never happen again.

Reflect on it. Hurt from it. Learn from it. Make swift decisions from it. And make sure there's no repeat.

Don't get me wrong, his tactics were woefully wrong tonight.

But the players were dire. As bad as it gets. Bring a few younger players through and drop the poor performers.

Is this a message to the board?

A £7m signing suspended, and we look utterly incapable of coping, all be it against a superb Chelsea performance.

Said after Burnley, "One of those", which it was. But this was just terrible.

The same fella who's team have played more long balls than ANY team in the league, and who's decided to bring a kid on when the team are getting destroyed. That is a disgrace, we've wanted to see him plenty of times and he decides now is the time. Utter sheethouse trick.

To be fair he probably brought Davies on to see how he would cope as he will have to replace Barry next week and Cleverley hardly did enough to keep his place.

With no Europe to contend with and a proven manager at winning titles, Chelsea will win the league. But that is no excuse for this shocking performance. At least in the Derby last year, they proved they weren't playing for the manager with their display, tonight many of them have proved they are not good enough for Everton football club. Sometimes the truth hurts.

Think they shouldve gone for players we had a chance of getting rather than hopeful punts on players we had no chance in getting.

Awful summer window.
