No he has not.I see no quality in our team. You look at big teams doing badly and you always know they have the quality to get themselves out of trouble, and smaller teams will usually have a couple of players that can get them to saftey. That was us last year with Richarlson.
But there’s nothing in our team. I think these players would struggle to compete in the championship.
Bournemouth looked down three weeks ago. But have found something.
Leeds looked in trouble, but are clawing their way out of it, somehow.
West Ham have moved up, they looked in trouble but always looked good enough to get out of it.
We only have those three teams below us, if one of them puts something together, we go down.
Deep poop. I can’t see us staying up.
We had to beat Fulham today.

that team sheet stank the place out, how we scored one goal was surprising.
Picking Maupey over Simms was baffling, keeping him on after the first half was double baffling, waiting til the 75th minute to put Simms waiting on when we were 2 behind was double plus baffling.
How we are in this position after spending so much is verging on criminal. Whoever is responsible is/are the one(s) responsible for sending this historic club into a death spiral.

Have a good holiday , I think there will be twists and turn while your away but we are a bit old in the tooth to worry too much.One bad result that yesterday.

Have our performances become even worst since the FFP investigation for last season was announced?
I think it has. Perhaps the players have decided putting in effort is pointless.
Even if found guilty is there really any realistic chance of Everton getting a points deduction that would affect their league position this season? Surely you'd just lawyer-up and appeal and by the time that gets heard we'd be well into next season. I think it has. Perhaps the players have decided putting in effort is pointless.
Obviously if you finish bottom three even without a points deduction that changes things - in that scenario you'd be better taking any points deduction this season as it would avoid you starting behind the line next season. Doubt you'll finish bottom three though....

He has risen! Bit late for Easter.
Fit enough to start, but not to make the bench vs Fulham? Whole thing is odd, hes been back on grass a month...We really needed him for Fulham. 3 pts there and a draw is a good result today.
I'm worried about Leicester's next 3 games. They could easily go above us during that run. We really need something from that game when we meet...
Hopefully Leeds lose again, 2-1 down in the 89th. 8 mins stoppage time
Edit: No Mina Was hoping he played the Chester game for match fitness and would be in.

Well Fulham have done thir part by beating Leeds. We need to step up now

Recruitment is an horrific issue at Everton.
Lack of recruitment in January more so, the issues were glaringly obvious and we still didn't do anything. I thought at the end of last season we were going to do a ground up investigation to sort our issues out? Fast Bug said:

What gets me is the likes of Harry Wilson at Fulham, pretty much the whole Brighton team, and numerous other examples of young players doing well in the PL. Wheras we have Tom Davies...Kes Arevo said:

We should have been fighting these players off with a stick in the summer. January perhaps less so given the mess, but still.
