I don't mind selfish players as long as they have the quality to back it up.

I really don't get this new phenomenon where people are picking what subs we need and the timings for them before a ball is kicked. You make decisions on them dependant on the state of the game (even if you don't agree with the manager's decisions at the time). Predicting them, or saying what needs to happen is just daft when you have no idea what the score will be at any given time.

Meh, looks a bit one footed for me.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Give him some game time!!!

Get him in next season. Would never have such a heartless team in the Derby with him around.

I think he knows the fans think there's a lack of spirit and heart, to me his actions says, "were in a tough patch, things arnt going well but I'm not here for a paycheck I'm here for all of you".
 
I like him, all this is overblown about a bit of passion that's been misinterpreted by carragher and echoed by many for that.

Not to bring the mood down any further here,
 
But I've got to fly home tomorrow morning as my mothers unfortunately had a stroke Wednesday morning.
For those of you going, enjoy the moment regardless of the result and cheer a little bit extra for me. Stay safe and look after each other, hopefully I'll be back in the UK at some point and get a beer with some of you. It's been a pleasure sharing views and opinions with the majority of you but from now on it will be from wacky Australian hours.
 
Again enjoy tomorrow all.

Good point, an we take it back to the right thread here...

....until another rumour appears. This thread is temporarily closed.

Exactly this mate. Even Barkley can sit on the bench for this one, hasn't looked interested at all. Let people who want to wear and battle for the shirt play. Besic is a must for this one for me.

Apologies for being so late but sounds like you had a great day Mike! Glad to hear

how about eye-raping pink?

I don't buy bad luck in football. You either score or you miss, if we hit the bar it's because a player has missed the goal. Not luck, it's a miss. If someone doesn't make a challenge to see a win out with ten seconds to go, and we conceded, it's because someone didn't make the tackle. Not luck. If we play on the edge of our box and get pressed, lose the ball and concede, it's not luck, it's getting caught out by the opposition.
 
Make your own luck, hit the target, make the fucking tackle, don't fuck around with the ball under pressure. Luck doesn't even come close.

Great balls in by Kev.

Stones needs to put his hand up for that.

No no I agree with that. As I said earlier I would have preferred Kev in for Barkley. Lennons energy and intensity in the middle is what we need in my opinion.

I've been a backer of Martinez. At the moment I'm pissed off with him.
 
But see shit like this? This pisses me off more.
 
Is this by the same fans who paid to fly a banner stating 'Kenwright Out'? Is it the same fans that have heckled Stones, Barkley and Howard?
 
I sometimes wonder what a section of our 'fans' are upto.
 
I'm assuming a post like this is going on numerous forums trying to drum up support. To have 700 odd signatures after 8 hours is piss poor.
 
Let's just try and get behind the team as we chase some elusive silverware and then we can fight it out at the end of the season.

"Statistically we have got one of the best teams in the history of Everton yet we are 12th in the premier league"?
 
Statistically we are 12th, the opinion we have one of the best teams in Everton's history is just that, opinion (presume she means her thoughts on squad/potential which I'd not disagree with totally).
 
Badly worded though, don't agree and won't be signing.

I don't want to get involved in an argument here, however as much as I think he is not right for the job, I refuse to join in a witch hunt of this nature. It is just plain nasty.
 
Find a replacement before you leave us managerless.

4 goals 2 assists in 695 mins for u21 mate

Martinez gonna get pulled apart here but it's Colemans error that cost us today.
Not happy with Barkley. Lazy today

Wow

They've got to go to Barcelona on Wednesday and then an early KO Saturday. I wouldn't take a point, I think we could take them apart.

We should have money. We need to get rid of the bargain basement mentality now. Carrick just shouldn't be on our radar!
