nogs Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 It goes deeper than that. We obviously have majpr issues with our defensive coaching at Finch Farm. No organisation or leadership. We actually look quite good going forward imho. The problem is that Barnsley's back four are playing better than our back four! Who's Barnsley's defensive coach? That lad Roberts at the back has won everything, they clearly know how to teach defending at Oakwell. We nick all their best defenders, might as well have the coach too.

Guest rusty747 Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 Not a single mention of Joel. Shocking goalkeeping. Every player on the field staring at him in disbelief that tells you all you need to know Agreed. Joel just isn't up to it. Can be good but costs us too much and too often.

markjazzbassist Posted August 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 listening to everton radio. snods said RM just left the dugout and talked to Ross and Gerry and then went down the tunnel fuming. They've never seen him do that. Guess that's the halftime changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rusty747 Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 Everton, quite rightly, being boo'ed off by the travelling fans. But most of the problems, I am now 100% certain, begin at Finch Farm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shukes Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 Well Martinez..Let's see what you got then. Let's see if you do have any balls or if you are the pussy arsed muppet most think you are. If you don't make serious changes by 55 minutes or get back into this then I think webhave our answer.

nogs Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 That was everything that is wrong with this football team in 45 minutes. Unspeakably bad defending, absolutely no creativity going forward despite having all of the ball, out fought and out thought by a League 1 club. Barkley, Kone, McCarthy on at half time. Naismith, McGeady, Robles sold. I'd demand Martinez's head too but I remember how unbearably shite we were under Moyes on more than one occasion in this competition.

Romey 1878 Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 Well, that went well . Summed up perfectly by John Stones jumping over the ball for their first when if he'd just stick his foot out he could've stopped it. We look good going forward but absolutely shambolic at the back.

Never seen him walk off before the half is over, especially when the opposition is on the break. Seemed to talk to Kone and Barkley. Here's hoping. McGeady could've set the pace...

Guest rusty747 Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 (edited) Just seen a replay of the first goal. Stones seems to deliberately jump over the ball after the Barnsley guy shot. Conspiracy theorists will be having a field day. But Stones could definitely have cleared it. He definitely made a conscious decision to leave the ball. Why?

Hafnia Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 Why did stones jump over the fuckin ball? He let number 15 go for the second... He can fuck off if he thinks this will force a sale. Toffee_in_LA and Sibdane 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the "great" John Terry can be taken off, so can Stones for not being good enough What about Jagielka? Yeah Stones jumped over the ball but Jags missed the tackle before that, then stood completely still near post as the cross came in for the second.

Lowensda Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 McGeady is rivalling Claus Thomsen and Brett Angell for my least favourite ever Everton player! Because he is fucking awful.

Hafnia Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 Stones is being a bell end. Is he trying to win favour with Barnsley first off getting them a 15% chunk then more or less lying down for them? MikeO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah Stones jumped over the ball but Jags missed the tackle before that, then stood completely still near post as the cross came in for the second. Jags hasn't (allegedly) handed in a transfer request less than a week before TDD and left us with no time to find replacements. Plus stones could have cleared that ball before Jags had to try and make that tackle. As for the 2nd, Robles came off his line tentatively like a little kitten. Jags has been crap but Stones has other things going for him (or against him in this case) Matt and Sibdane 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EFC-Paul Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 Shambles is all I can really say on that first half especially the defending and Joel just looks like he's handling a hot potato I've stuck a fiver on us to win though don't ask me why but I think we will...

AlbanyNYToffee Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 Enough with Stones. He misread the situation simple as that. Either thought is was going wide or joel wasnt a complete fool and would save it. Few and certainly not Stones are daft enough to intentionally allow a goal.

Guest rusty747 Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 (edited) im going with either he got s call or thought he'd deflect it passed the diving keeper. Fairly sure there was no call and Stones was facing forward and could have cleared the ball straight into row Z. Weird. I'm not suggesting Stones did anything underhand but I would love to know what was going through his mind to make him leave the ball like that.
