What did Martinez say post match?

Basically what happened. We had a lot of possession without being a threat, we gifted Swansea three chances and they took them.

Behind closed doors I'm pretty sure all the players will have had a rollocking for their performances in the last two games - but to get them fired up for the derby.

Distin seems to have forgotten he is a footballer though
 
Sorry mate. Basically I just disagree on everything you just said about Hibbert.

how can you disagree, hibbo in his younger days was a good DEFENDER, poor going forwards admittedly, he obviously loves the club, so not a lot to disagree on and with a user name like Eric djemba-djemba i highly doubt you know anything, donut
 
I was in work but when I got told we got beat 3-0 I honestly wasn't bothered in the slightest, couldn't give one, especially having seen the lineups.
 
Arsenal out as well - Lost at home. Liverpool held to penalties at home.

Compared to the other teams we aren't doing that bad.


We lost 3-0 mate, i would say that's pretty bad compared to the rest. We are averaging 3 goals against every game. That is pretty horrific mate. We are not at a crisis stage just yet but with two games we could easily get hammered in, defending as we are at the moment, the fume levels could well and truly be sky high in a week and a bits time.

I do not care about this 2nd 11 boll@cks. We are Everton, regardless of who is on that pitch they should be giving it there all and i just do not see it at the moment. Effort is the bare minimum and tonight there was very little indeed. I can handle getting beat but when it is so abject, especially on the back of a joke result at the weekend, it makes me wonder what the players are thinking. For example people like Alcaraz/Gibson/Besic/Atsu/Mcgeady/Hibbert etc this was their chance to stake a claim in the side for the upcoming games. As the 'so called' first eleven have not been performing well, you would think that these boys would jump at the chance to put a performance in but they just didn't turn up. All it means now is there is no pressure on the first 'eleven' as the reserve lads were/are not up to the job at present.

All the players need to knuckle down and concentrate on their own games. I don't know if it's after last season people started to believe in their own hype or whatever but we need to get back to basics and quickly, if not it could be a long season!
 
Anyway, poor result today but we move on. At least I can now safely put any 'Hibbo to start' posts in the facetious/WUM bin. Having said that, there was something about Hibbo that I really liked - not football-wise, but as a person. He appears a good, loyal person, and for this reason, I am joining his fan club ...with avatar to reflect this.

He is absolute tosh.

And I know everything mate. You are lucky to be talking with such a bastion of footballing knowledge.
