Looking like a 6-6 draw.

Yes we are away but if we lose won't this equate to 3 wins in 14 games, would that be truly acceptable even to Mr Moshri. This would be acceptable to a proven such as Benitez or dare I say Moyes (first season) but (beats head against wall) this man, does not have a CV (don't mention Olympiakos, micky mouse) , what he does have is a proven 6 month bubble then it bursts. If Mr Moshri can say what he did about Silva, why couldn't he have thought the same about Martinez (incidentally looking like a genius compared with Silva) . P. S. I would love a win but will take a draw.

Sorry to say it but I can see a defeat on the cards 3_1 and more questions will be asked sorry to be pessimistic I will say sorry if I'm wrong 😫.

Ducks you are too impatient. Moyes didn't have a world class CV before coming to us, he finished 17th in his first season yet you champion him. I'm surprised you weren't calling for his head before that 1st season even finished.
What if Benitez comes? you would be posting the same negativity when he lost a few games. I don't think you will ever be happy with any modern manager because you won't give them any time.
I appreciate you have an opinion but your posts are super negative and so repetitive and your obvious hatred of Silva and Moshiri is unjust.

I know we discuss week in week out about set pieces and the manager.

Silva will be going nowhere until at least the Summer, so any talk of any manager coming in before then is a no go.

It is up to Silva to sort out the dreadful defending at set pieces, it has not worked at Hull, Watford or Everton, time to ditch the zonal marking and go back to basics at defending.

In my opinion, unless he sorts the defending out, he will be on his way in the summer.

For now though, the bigger picture is for the players to step up and show some graft and effort.

I was comparing Smit, with Moyes I maintain you could see something there and all of that with no money. After that how many of us were truly worried, I for one never was, I just wanted that elusive look we can beat anyone except you lot to be broken. I have been around since Catterick and beyond, the memory isn't as it was and I also refuse to troll the stats and history but something is surely wrong when you employ a proven failure and what is worse no evidence whatsoever he can improve. I hope above hope we hammer Watford tomorrow and go on a run, even as Ed25 says a draw is acceptable. Mr Moshri must be tearing his hair out but it is a problem of his own making, listening to this advisor that is going nowhere soon apparantly.

{Ed025's Note - its no used crying over spilled milk though DFS, the fact is he is here until the end of the season at least mate, so i suggest we just support the team and see where we end up, if he fails to address the problems he will be gone anyway i expect so just lets try and enjoy it..

Smit don't be so silly. Benitez is a proven winner, he is precisely the type of Manager Moshri (sorry his advisor) should have been looking at for long term and I would back him to the hilt, the reason is obvious. You mistake negativity for realism. Martinez had something but was obstinate, Koeman I wanted knowing he was always a stop gap. Where are the positives with this fella, take two players Walcot and Lookman, Walcot we have all watched for weeks with the ball bouncing off him, making blind runs, and quite frankly not up to standard, Lookman starting on the right a 100 percent improvement again the whole of Goodison could see it. Question, Mr Silva 'why was Lookman not involved, was he injured? ', no it was a technical decision.

{Ed025's Note - they are your opinions though DFS, benitez is a definite no no for me mate but again thats just my opinion, we all have them..

I don't get the Moyes had no money when he broke our transfer record 3 times in his tenure. Silva doesn't have the players to play his way and is just finding his feet. This season is a write off as a transitional season, next season hopefully after a successful summer recruitment we will see a more balanced side that the management team have assembled. Success doesn't happen overnight it takes time and patience. We need next season to get rid of the passengers (siggy, Walcott) and up the fitness to play the high press and then maybe we will see what Silva's vision is. The zonal marking isn't working and I fear for us every time we defend a set piece but Leicester won the league with lesser defenders using zonal marking, it just took them a season to adapt to it. I ain't Silva's biggest fan but I have faith that he can come good and we will see a more entertaining Everton that can compete and not have us pulling our hair out. If you expected to see us challenging this season then you are a dreamer, the project will take time, and this is coming from someone who wanted Benitez.

Just frustrated Ed, and bemused by what I see as ridiculous unfounded answers and excuses for the man. Sorry mate.

{Ed025's Note - as supporters there is nothing we can do about it DFS, i know it just seems like another lost season but we have to live in hope that he turns it around, and if not then im sure you will get your wish mate..

Further Ed, I don't think he will go even if we are defeated tomorrow and beyond. We are in a financial quandry of our own making and as Ed002 says, Mr Moshri will be loath (commonsense at last perhaps) to continue paying yet another ex employees wages of millions a year. I do get where you are coming from mate.

{Ed025's Note - im as frustrated as the rest of you mate believe me..

DFS Moyes isn't going to rise from the flames like a phoenix, there are better managers out there than Benitez that, if they came would come with less baggage.
Silva is here for at least 2 seasons. Moshiri won't sack him after 1 season and I can't see him sacking another manager mid season again.
Best to just jump on and come along for the ride, where ever it takes us.
