What's going on Everton?

[Ronaldo]

0-3 down at half-time against a recently poor Blakcburn. I heard Tim made a howler worse than Kiraly's one. At home too, what's going on down there?

Goals from Derbyshire, Pedersen and Gallagher.

[Ronaldo]

1-3. Andy Johnson penalty surprisingly!

[Ronaldo]

1-4 Full-time. McCarthy scores. You're being abit incosistent lately Everton.

I'm not a happy bunny.

The worst thing is that Blackburn weren't good themselves - we've been hammered by a s**te team.

Howard had a nightmare. Howler for the first, should have saved the second, mistake in the run-up to the third.

Moyes is s**t with substitutions. 3-0 down and he waits until 20 minutes before the end until he makes a sub, while leaving our best forward of the past month on the bench.

Bumped into my flatmate selling hotdogs in the concourse, so the day hasn't been a complete waste :rolleyes:

What a joke. YOUR team has just been made to look like an absolute joke by Blackburn. And your 'Not too down'. YOu should be going mental at them, you should be letting the whole world know these type or performances are NOWHERE near good enough. You had the bottle to bollock a 19-year old in the media over his performances but not a team when they have just been embarrassed by Blackburn by all teams.

Quotes like "I thought the team were terrific in the second half. I thought we threw everything at the Blackburn." Fuck off, scoring one penalty and then having 1 against us is not terrific, its not even OK. We SHOULD with the players and past investment at our disposal if playing right should be breezing past Blackburn. He really does think were clueless. The majority of our squad CAN play attractive football, Arteta, Lescott,Yobo,VDM,Cahill,AJ,Valente, Anichebe for many, all their faults CAN string passes together, but instead the tactic seems to be HOOf the ball upto ANDY JOHNSON the shortest player in the squad or Anichebe, a young lad, who ISN'T a Duncan Ferguson, he is an all round player, not a target man who is specialised a heading. It's a joke, we can and should be able to outplay Blackburn. Pedersen was the only player who looked dangerous.....that is if they were playing a decent team.

Howard is a Good goalkeeeper, however he makes too many mistakes, and I can't see him getting nay better, as our Goalkeeping coach, Chris Woods is a joke, his record of aiding other young up and coming keepers stands for itself, Gerrard, Simonsen, Wright... need I go on?

Yobo is the most inconsistant player we have, he will have one game where he plays good but then 2 or 3 where he is shite. What the hell was he doing at the third goal??

Lescott is brilliant, although I've heard he should take some blame for the fourth goal (which I had left the ground by so can't really comment). He really is a huge talent, I'll be surprised if he's here in 2 years time, he is going to join one of the World's Biggest clubs, he is good enough.

Neville is solid enough, get involved alot, but he is by far the biggest culprit of hoofing the ball. He need to keep the ball on the deck, ahead of him at all times is either VDM or Arteta, our two most creative players, he should do what his brother done at Utd, or what Hibbert does when he's fit and link up with them, not bypass them hoping that one reason or another his ball will be able to skip the centre backs and be in distance of AJ. Can't wait for Hibberts return to see Neville back in the centre n see Carsley to the bench.

Carsley, too old, puts in the tackles but he just isn't upto it anymore. He was one of the main reasons we got into the Champions League but its sad to say he's not good enough anymore.

Arteta is a great player, too good for us. He really wants to stay, but I could understand him if he did end up leaving to go back to Spain. Most underated player in the Prem IMO. Only problem is last few weeks is corners and freekicks, he hasn't bee accurate enough, never beats the first man on corners and his freekicks have all been wasted.

Van Der Meyde playing 90 minutes is hopefully going to be a solid first XI player now, hes hugely talented but needs to carry on working hard to get to full fitness. We are going to need him.

Andy Johnson is a geat player, but we are not playing to his strengths, his weak points in his game are his first touch and heading. Yet we constantly hoof balls upto him which he cannot compete for, and play tough balls for him to get to, just because they know he will have a good chance with his pace. We need someone to link up with him, get a few passes together and then give a through ball to him which he can break through the opponents' defences with.

Anichebe is a good player, he's not the 'next Drogba' as has been said recently, he is a similar player in build to Drogba, but I can't see him being as good as him, althoughI hope I'm proved wrong.


WHY DIDN'T MOYES PLAY McFADDEN?
He was exactly the player we needed. A player who has the ability to get the ball on the floor, and just run at the defence and beat them, especially with BLackburn's Stefen Henchoz and Co. aren't exactly the fastest players to come up against, and your could imagine McFadden runnign at the and taking them on would had opebned passes for Johnson up. Thousands of fans could see that, why could you Moyes?

Evertime I see that headline it makes me more angry. This may be a knee-jerk reaction but I really am pissed off with this. I as many other do spent daft amounts on watching Everton, we didn't all need to turn upon a cold raining night for a 3rd round cup game, and we get this in return. MOYES THIS IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR EVERTON. I really hope he fucks off after saying that I can't belive a manager could say that after watching his team getting beat 4-1. I think he has taken us as far as he could, well done. Lets carry on prgressing with someone who CAN make a difference and move us on.

[FourOneFourOne]

Comments like that prove that Moyes just isn't an Everton manager.

FFS, what a ridiculous thing to say.

The rest of the season is going to be s**t, more or less nothing to play for. I feel like letting someone use my season ticket and going to watch the reserves, at least they aren't gettin £30,000 a week to play like that.

Thats quite bad, and at home as well. I didnt htink you played to badly when you played against us the other week. A bit embarrasing in the cup though. It could be worse, it could have been a lower league team.
