There were 4 players that ran through the majority of shit moments in that game... Davies, Allan, Digne and Godfrey. 

I said before the game that we needed extra in midfield because Allan and Davies would get exposed and guess what happened. Time and time again. To leave them to on their own like that was criminal from Benitez. 

Our performance at set pieces has to improve. Godrfey involved in both, the second misreading the flight and getting caught underneath it. 

There were comments last week that Richarlison coming back would make everything better and it looked like it would with our 2nd goal but he showed that his goal couldn't cover over those cracks running through the side as we were exposed time and time again and created next to nothing in that period. 

It is so frustrating being an Eveton fan.

To think that I got grief for ranting about the West Ham game last week, that was the most embarrassing performance I've seen at Goodison and Benitez is already slipping into volatile territory with the crowd, he's going to get less time than any other manager we've had and based on the last two results he's not going to get much more rope. 

Only Coleman, Godfrey and Gordon could be arsed thanking for the fans for staying to the end too, lovely that.

We need to play 3 in midfield while Doucoure is out. It would also help if we could practicei defending set pieces. Mina, Doucoure and DCL out is really exposing our weaknesses. It looked like Gray picked up a knock before being subbed off too. Last thing we need is him missing too.

This is going to be a struggle until we are almost back to full strength and we have done a bit of shopping in the January window.

When you take out the 3 best players from the spine of the team, it's always going to be a struggle. Especially when there's scraps on the bench to fill in

Its going to take time for this to sink in, i mean Watford whipping boys of the prem, if this was city, or Chelsea or even the shite, you have to swallow it, but Watford come on. We kept quiet last year because it was Carlo, we keep quiet no longer even for Raffa, that was unacceptable, and he needs to know how unacceptable it was, no easy gloss over.

Having said that he still has my vote, but he's not above criticism, and has to take full responsibility for it. no excuse with how many players we had missing, this was Watford.

Yes, but this was Watford. We should still have enough to beat them. Something inside Everton is very wrong. And it runs much deeper than missing the spine of the team.

Simple really.

Previous managers spent a shit load of money on mainly shite players.

Current manager has a shoe string budget and can’t afford to replace the many championship players we have in the squad.

Injuries mean the shite players come in.

Laymen’s terms right there.

Unfortunately, you are quite right. But there was something else too. A lack of fight, organisation and pride in the shirt from too many players.

Agree- disgraceful from the players.

looking at the bench, how many of the starters were worried about coming off? Regardless of their display?
