Of course its relevant because you cant always keep winning like that, you will only get away with it for so long.

I think I have posted here long enough for you to know that I am not one of the moaners more often than not. I'm not even moaning now to be honest it just gets frustrating that we seem to lose games from just not turning up every so often and its been going on for decades, that's probably where peoples frustrations come from.

I know the problems, I know the issues and I know we will not win every game but it doesn't make it any less frustrating/annoying.

yeah I know you’re not one of those clowns that thrive off the doom. The way we’re playing isn’t for the long term, that’s obvious after them he way we played at the start of the season. This is a fix, to overcome a medium term injury crisis, in a moment of the season which has too many games at the best of times. And bar 1 game it’s worked.

If we’d picked up 4/5 points over that time I’d be in agreement and say it’s not good enough, but what this has shown is that we are capable of putting 3/4/5 game winning streaks together. Which for me, is a massive massive plus
 
Yes, if we want to finish top 4, then we need to have a lot less performances like yesterday. My point was more how you listed almost every single poor result as if it was a reflection of our typical results, yet glossed over all the positive results as if they almost proved your point wrong. Surely you can see how that can be construed as being negative.

Until 5 minutes ago, we actually were in the top 4. We're maybe not as far off as you and others are implying

Oh do one mate, I didn't list all the bad results. You're not getting this at all. Seeing what you want to see/read and manipulating it to suit your own narrative. Its clear what was being said you've just conflated it with your own interpretation.

I think we're having a great season, that wasn't ever the point being made. But you know that.

The end of Silva's tenure last year and the kick-offs were thoroughly justified.

However, we are currently 3 games from being halfway through the season and we're 4 points off the league leaders despite not playing very well and having a load of injuries over the past few weeks.

It is absolutely correct to call out those losing the plot over this. We have gained some absolute divs in our fanbase of late and I am all for them being CRUSHED tbh
 
Obviously there’s some over the top reactions but I think criticism is fair for last nights showing.
Nail on head really.

It's right that you should call out the team for bad performances, but I think what the OP here is saying is right.
There's too many in our fanbase that seem to go straight for the nuclear option every time we have a bad game.

Richarlison for example. He was poor last night, as bad as I've ever seen him in an Everton shirt. It's right to make that comment and disscuss it.
But as usual there are people who have jumped to the level of sending him personal abuse on social media and some on here deciding that a poor performance means that he doesn't want to be here and we should just "sell the little rat for whatever we can get and bring in someone who wants to be here, lad"

Same people who were giving it the "Carlo isn't the right man for the job" shouts after a couple of bad results. Despite the fact that the man himself said we should manage our expectations and expect 'ups and downs' after the initial good start, as were are still a 'work in progress'

Seems to be a modern thing where people think shouting the loudest gets you the most attention regardless of if you are right or wrong - see Arsenal Fan TV

Absolutely, the boo boys creaming their keks that Siggy didn't have a good game. Must have been seething when he was bossing the previous four games and we were on a boss winning streak.
 
Its not 1 loss. It's losing at home to West Ham and Leeds plus dropping points to Burnley and likes of Newcastle. Its great beating the so called big teams but its the other sides where we need to get points from to realistically challenge top 4.

In fairness its a pretty open season and lots to still play for but its a results business and we didn't get one last night. Could be 2 points clear at summit if we'd not lost to West Ham and Leeds.

Not edgy being down about our lot. Its realistic to look at our squad and results and make fair assessment.
But even then the RS would be ahead of us if they had beaten WBA and would be 5 points ahead if they had beaten Newcastle and Villa. The point is that everyone is dropping points where and when they're not expecting to.
In my mind we should be pleased to be just 4 points off the top given the general level of our performances this season.
