Duncan the money was there to spend. There's at least £20+ million floating somewhere. It's being held back and I don't know why same last January under Moyes. In a great position and never spent. Why can everyone see it but the Everton managers?

Very evident where we at lacking if late....Up front. Why the fuck aren't we spending the money? I hope for Christ we aren't saving £20m+ for Lukaku. We need a 25 goal a season striker. Going to be completely honest here as well. I'm not the biggest fan of McCarthy. He either goes about his game quietly or I just don't think he offers much. I know loads of fans rave about him but for me I'm not convinced yet! I don't know what it is. I just don't see his impact on the team.

Never a £20m striker.

Everything looked bright at the start. Now we find ourselves well off the pace and I can't see us catching after the dire performances of late!! Spurs and Liverpool keep winning both took 3 points of us. We were in a fantastic position, but now I'm afraid our season is looking to be no better than under Moyes. Failure to sign a proven goalscorer in January will come back to bite us and only one man to blame for that. Lukaku is not a Suarez, Sturridge or Adebayor. He's not good enough, those players are carrying their sides with goals! I'm furious watching these other sides go and turn teams over whilst we now slip. There's only so much you can give in leeway. We should have strengthened in January. We have the money!

We ain't played well (best of our ability) since Arsenal away IMO. This should be 3 points no questions. I just have a feeling we're going to finish 6th or 7th now. Momentum has gone. No cutting edge.

The very small penis, yes

No you're barred.

Considering Mcgeady is meant to be a direct dribbling player. I don't rate him so far. He's done ok don't get me wrong but there is certainly a cutting edge missing.

It's the error from the players. If we hadn't conceded there I have no doubt we'd have gone on to win! It was their first shot on target!

Matt hasn't got a point, he's using a referee for the reason of defeat. How original.

Who the fuck voted for Pienaar? He was shite.

"Protect yourself at all times" a boxing quote I know but is relevant to this situation. We fell asleep. Ultimately I blame Barry! He placed the ball for them and turned his back!!!

It's up to our players to stand over that ball and not let a quick one get taken our mistake.

It needed changing straight away! Noticed we've been absolutely shite with Barkley on the pitch in the last 3 games aswell. If he's not fully fit. Stop fucking playing him he looks lost!

Nothing wrong with Clattenburg. The points were lost at that free kick!

To be honest mate. I think it's Martinez who is holding the money back not Bill. It's always been the same here. Transfer funds made via sales are available to the manager. It's Martinez not Kenwright

Nothing wrong with Clattenburg so sack that off. The missed opportunities cost us in the first 10minutes. Barry placed the ball down for "their" free kick and turned his back on it!!!! Allowing walker a quick free kick. Awful from a seasoned pro!!! THAT cost us. The performance on a whole wasn't bad. But I have serious questions over some of the impact players! Barkley has been well off the pace since his toe injury. Absolutely awful, looks nothing like the hungry player in the first half of the season. Pienaar has no legs at all. Getting past him is effortless at times. Aiden Mcgeady (yes I know he is new) is meant to be a player who goes past people. His cameo role today was that of a shithouse. Expected much more at 1-0 down. That really is game over for fourth. We are going to drop a lot more points! Cracks are showing!

Fucking shite

Barry turned his back on the ball and walk away from it. Schoolboy error.

I think the lads on the bench will come on and nick this later on. Dembele and Eriksen always dangerous though. Happy with the first half performance.

Spot on. Easy to see. Was meant to give you positive there mate.

At centre back. Which I've acknowledged umpteen times. He's made some classy performances at centre half. I never want to see him at RB again though. The amount of times he was in a decent attacking position then opted to pass it backwards wore thin on me. He's was trying to be an attacking outlet but hasn't got the skillet to do it. Not his fault.

Stones is 20 in May. Not 18. Do your homework. The point is he will never be a RB in a Martinez side. What got my back up about him was people saying he played well. He was absolute shite! in the derby and against Villa.

My opinion on Stones is he shouldn't be anywhere near considered as our main backup for the RB position. That should be looked at! He proved he is absolutely terrible in forward positions. Considering this side relies on bombing full backs, I think it's a fair enough comment? Don't you? To raise the issue of his age doesn't sit well for me (that seems to be the defence). Are we in the position of accepting mediocrity in the chase for 4th? He highlighted himself as poor in the opposing half. Passing backwards in advanced positions with our other players bombing into the box and looking for attacking opportunity. He did ok but hindered our attack. Stick to centre back, as he seems very accomplished there.

Your midfield is average. No stand out players at Spurs anymore. You've got a couple of big names like Eriksen but other than him I don't fear Spurs anymore. Very misjointed side. I reckon we'll win convincingly.
