Woody in the stands today!

Have missed the inevitable scan to his face when we've done rubbishly recently.

 

[Inigo Montoya]

Not this one tbh. He doesn't make us better and he doesn't us worse at the same time

Such a very inconsistent player. The ability he has could unlock this defence for fun but he shows it in flashes

Maybe coming on against a tiring side ...

 

[VP89]

It was used in the context of a tactical set up though...

Whatever anyway, hopefully we win today & play something actually resembling decent football.

It doesn't really matter. It's a personal insult the moment you call the person a coward rather than say his tactics are cowardly.

 

[Andycoleno9]

Are we genuinely 4 points above the relegation zone after 9 games? How is this manager still here?

Fatigue. Not his fault

 

[Withnail]

He's been invisible our last three league games to be honest, completely went missing.

 

[Inigo Montoya]

Have missed the inevitable scan to his face when we've done rubbishly recently.

The mask should be on permanently

 

[48 hours]

Martial eager to start....

 

[Cantona in disguise]

Are we genuinely 4 points above the relegation zone after 9 games? How is this manager still here?

Well we have only played 6 so... that's a positive

 

[DRM]

Martial

 

[Sandikan]

Win the game - pressure off, back on track.
Lose the game - sacked.

If it was that clear it'd feel fairly pressureless.

But you know a loss still wouldn't necessarily even mean the end and it'd rumble on!

It’s 6 games.

 

[wolvored]

This team. Mata playing. James on the bench. No place for VDB. Seems like he wants the sack.

 

[laughtersassassin]

Look Pogba has been crap but don't tell me the others are playing any better. The whole team is crap. In truth you just expect nothing from McTominay so it doesn't matter how be plays.

 

[Giggs' right foot]

Not true. Pogba is by far the worst. Good on Ole for acknowledging it.

 

[Inigo Montoya]

Could so easily have been in there

 

[Random Task]

I'd be genuinely surprised if the team don't pull off a blinder today.

 

[Big Andy]

Alright, in the fabled words of Romano....

"Here we go!"

AND ITS LIIIIVVVVEEE

 

[2 man midfield]

Fred is so quick, no idea how he won that

 

[eltigreFalcao]

What a dreadful starting xi

 

[Andycoleno9]

We are winning this. We are up for it

 

[Jazz]

Can we stop being negative until we lose at least? It's depressing

 

[DomesticTadpole]

I'd be genuinely surprised if the team don't pull off a blinder today.

I wouldn't be surprised either, so why can't they and the manager do it all the time.

 

[pablo__p]

Do they still take the BLM knee or it's a new iteration?
Baffling if it's the former given the circumstances.

 

[John Keiler]

McTominay and Fred - words to fill you with joy.

 

[Foxbatt]

Good start. We seem for once to start on the front foot.

 

[RonaldoVII]

Look Pogba has been crap but don't tell me the others are playing any better. The whole team is crap. In truth you just expect nothing from McTominay so it doesn't matter how be plays.

He gives consistent 5/6 out of 10 whereas Pogba can give you 8 then a 3 then a 1. Nobody has a clue what Pogba turns up but it's often disappointing.

 

[arnie_ni]

Are we genuinely 4 points above the relegation zone after 9 games? How is this manager still here?

In fairness we've only played 6. If we win today and our game in hand we'd be 1 point outside the top 4. That's why this shocking start is even worse, everyone else has been dropping points and we haven't capitalised

 

[Smores]

Everton might have been decent this season but their defence is still poor. Attack and we'll outscore them.

 

[Caliban]

Mata plays to better Bruno .. probably

 

[Infra-red]

I'll be a little sad at one, not so much the other. One's been let down by players, the other's let down his coach

Can't disagree too much. I don't think that either of them are right for the club long term, but getting rid of Ole will be a bit sad - as Redknapp said earlier in the week, it has to be done, but it's a bit like shooting bambi.

Pogba on the other hand... overhyped, overpaid, perpetually underperforming - he won't be missed in the slightest.

 

[Foxbatt]

Good start.

 

[AJ Bullet]

They have a Pickford, we have a chance.....

 

[fps]

When the ball gets to AWB the authority just goes. Same with Shaw.

 

[Untd55]

I can see a scrappy win that will delay the inevitable once again.

 

[Berbasbullet]

At least mcmanamun is honest in his support for Everton.

 

[Schmeichel's Cartwheel]

Positive start

 

[NJM78]

You just know a sigurdsson free kick is going in today.

 

[londonredmaniac]

Look Pogba has been crap but don't tell me the others are playing any better. The whole team is crap. In truth you just expect nothing from McTominay so it doesn't matter how be plays.

It's almost as if we expect more from an allegedly 'world class' performer than a player we all acknowledge should be rotated.

Crazy!

 

[Andycoleno9]

Carlo decided to play defensive i see

 

[tyunited]

Can't believe we still haven't sorted that right hand side and Mata is still playing there.
