Its a good hon our home form has been ok otherwise we'd be where West Brom are, our away form is like that of a Fulham or Sunderland when they where in the premier league. Only 4 away wins last season and only one this season with what 5 away games left is it?
 
I actually thought there were many positives during the first 60-70 minutes. We created chances, but were awful in the box. Thought several players were dangerous today. Think it's pretty obvious the Gana/Davies/Rooney midfield is decent, even with Rooney playing a horrid game. We made a lot of bad decisions and got quite a bit of bad luck as well.

But the bad...the Walcott/Kenny combo was completely out of sync. We still have serious limitations with Williams in the back. The poor work in the final third was due to a complete lack of organization and idea as to how we were attacking in addition to Niasse being awful. Too many unecessary giveaways, but at least there was work to win the ball back at times.

Honestly, though, Sam is the number one issue. Waited WAY too long to make the 2nd and 3rd sub. Just incompetence, several in the midfielder were out of gas. And why he tried to bottle everything up in the second half was mind boggling.

Can I have some of what you been drinking ? Did the Watford goalie even have a save to make ?

It is all opinion of course! I think the midfield of Davies, Rooney and Gueye is awful Rooney is finished and can't pass a simple ball. Davies is way out of his depth and offers nothing except running and enthusiasm. Gueye shows his limitations similar to Davies except he has the experience but can't hack it. I would never have given him a new contract. He flatters to deceive. The defence isn't that bad, but with no midfield and nothing up front we are a loser before the game starts. Sam said we missed our chances. We never came close to scoring, so one goal against was fatal.
 
cenk needs to step up when the ball was in the opponent and press. He was just waiting for team to cheer up and manage to do some attack organisations all game. You must at least try to make their defence do some mistakes.
 
We will beat Brighton . Other than that it’s hard to fancy us in any of the rest . Southampton and Newcastle maybe . Once the season ends I’m switching off all summer from this crap . We always build ourselves up for a massive fall . I wish we took as much pride in the football side of things as we do in EITC . As great as that is there is nothing like seeing an Everton team play well and give us some hope .
