Player Valuation: £20m
Who's good enough in our squad? Who looks like they have a future at everton? For me its richarlison, digne, pickford (who's been largely garbage this season). That's pretty much it and you could debate them all. The young players like Davies, dcl, lookman need to be kept based on their potential and to bulk up the squad. Sigurdsson and gomes also have a place going forward imo but can absolutely see why others would argue they dont and need moving out.
Time and time again experienced players let the team down, baines and Coleman costing us a goal a piece. We just give goals away every single week. The amount of chances we gift the opposition is a joke. How can premier league defenders not know when to come and when to go? How can we have set pieces and put one of the smallest players in our team on their main striker? Oh yeah. Its zonal marking. We have clearly learnt how to do that properly in the last however many months. These players are either not good enough or fundamentally thick.
Cut our losses, get rid of the bulk of this squad and remodel. We ain't competing for sh with these players. You see the character of people when things dont go your way, it's easy to play well when everyone else is playing well and you're winning. The last 10 or 15 games we've been given the same shrinking violets we've had for the last 4, 5, whatever seasons. Just not good enough. Its infuriating. Manager has to take some of the responsibility but christ on a bike, as a professional footballer, literally all you do all week is play football and train, then you go out there and give a shocking free kick away (keane) and a stupid penalty (baines) when you know your team is struggling. Theres generally no concept of defending within the back 4, its basic stuff, the management team shouldn't even need to tell them when one goes the other stays, that their forwards are going to run the channels and try play off the shoulder especially on Keane. We will go out Wednesday and do exactly the same thing same errors, same needless set pieces given away, we will still have Coleman or baines on the near post up against aguero or a centre back half a foot taller than them. Braindead.
