Palfy

I was saying earlier today what was the point of bringing him here, for me a complete waste of a signing, whether there cheap or it’s financially a good deal means zilch if they add nothing to the team.

It’s getting worse for us week by week, can’t win away, can’t score a goal, now fortress Goodison has been breached the one thing that gave us hope of staying up.

4 games without a goal we are in huge huge trouble.

Leeds just scored life’s a fucking bitch

That could prove to be important

Shocking

Alli on his chance to prove why we bought him.

If this was a Benitez selection we would be kicking right off for being to defensive, we concede 5 goals at Spurs playing pressing football and then play at home with the tactics we should have played with at Spurs. Wtf going on.

1 shot on target at home not good enough.

It’s getting very scary for us no goals in the last 3 and teams around us still being able to register.

The team lacks a natural goal scorer and Gray is trying to hard to take that role on but where’s the good movement in front of him to pass to.

Leeds and Watford both gone 1 up, we need to make this good start count.

Everton 2-1 Wolves Gray

Exactly to say we were buying players for the following season in a winter window doesn’t make sense, when we needed players for now to help keep us up.

Maybe maybe not I’m not sure if they offered on anyone else or just concentrated all their efforts on him, but and there’s always a but why go through all the efforts of getting him when it was the last window to improve the team to stave off relegation and then not play him, that’s what I struggle with surely we haven’t now based our recruitment on cheap deals instead of will they improve the team when we most need it, just a bizarre signing for me at the moment to be honest.

I get the non risk element and the way the deal was structured tells me he was always considered a gamble, my problem with that was shouldn’t when we were in the position we were in be signing players that were considered less of a gamble with more opportunities to play to help the team conquer it’s problems, not saying he won’t come good in the next 3 or 4 games, but if he doesn’t what a waste of signing when we needed players who were going to contribute regularly.

Let’s hope you get what you’ve been asking for.

A heavy defeat for us at home tomorrow, can’t think of anything worse than that at the moment

Touché

If Keane is well enough I wouldn’t have huge problem with him playing, ideally I would prefer Mina and Godfrey as a first choice, but if they aren’t available I would put Keane in front of Branthwaite and Holgate, he is prone to making the odd mistake but aren’t most of our defence, but what he does possess over Branthwaite and Holgate is experience and there’s no substitute for experience when you’re up against it.

Any where exotic mate.

I agree, with our injuries sometimes we have to live with the only options available.

It has over the last 6 years or so and not just the 6 months Rafa was here, and if Alli doesn’t step up will we be saying the same thing under Lampard, make no mistake this has turned out to be a tough place to come whether player manager or DoF.

I hope you’re not looking for an excuse to switch allegiance if we go down
