when wearing everton goggles

i for one always need that time after to match to calm down be it after a win or a defeat and let reality take back control of my senses

as u know in the heat of the moment we all should be managing the team and we all can turn on a sixpence .....

however are we been just to damn hard on the team in general yes we hav every right to vent our frustration regardless when the maj in here think different but hey thats freedom of speech for ya b)... the start of this season has me screamiong from the rooftops of how good we should be??????

at the start of the season i touched my concern over the hype with efc this season and how i believed too many were buyin into and now 5 games into the season i m curious how loud they scream it now????
Do i honestly think DM puts people in diffrent posiitions so he can sit back and laugh as all around him turn to chaos because of these decisions??? NO
Do i think Dm has it in his locker to take us into the top 4 consistently with this squad??? NO
i honestly think if we took off the everton goggles every now and again and hand onn heart assess where we are now and what we hav to offer i think our expectation will be slightly and rightly( imo) lowered (y)

Our form in the 2nd half of last season was top 4 material so I don't think it was beyond the realms to predict a good challenge for Europe. Obviously other clubs have added to their squads, Man City in particular, but we haven't had a really tough opening (Man Utd is a tough game but I don't think Villa are up to last year and the rest have all been winnable). The problem is our standards have dropped from the end of last year to this.

The issue is figuring out why. Sure Moyes is on the case but it is baffling why we so seldom get a good start to the season.

We don't have the strikers for a regular, or even temporary, 4th place slot. If we had a fit and sharp Yak or Saha then maybe, but we don't, so 4th is unrealistic.
