Unsworth

[gizzblue]

I've had my doubts about Rhino and his starting squads ...he's still playing safe for an hour then going for the win ,still leaving out players who have made a difference Beni ,Vlasic ...but instead of appointing a wrong un now id still give him till at least Christmas ....and tell the squad that too .

[Escla]

He's the guy that brought Beni in and gave him his first game, just didn't think he was right against Palace, he wa hardly playing safe giving Beni a start.

Be honest about the performances under Unsworth

They have been dreadful

I’m sorry, why can’t people call a spade a spade and stop making excuses for poor old Unsie

have you been there all season ? because perfomances has been absolute dreadful ALL season. do you think all it takes is a magic wand to heal it ? we are in a better positon now under unsworth than we were with koeman ,it seems you have your view of things and your view alone, which comes across as its personal rather than knowledge based, as you call him names and say you wouldnt put him back in the u23s, the team he won the title with, wow that beats me that

[Escla]

Unsie is awful lads

Best to call a spade a spade and take the blue tinted specs off v

Ever stopped to wonder why it's only you that has negative karma ? There's a message in there somewhere.

i dont know whats happened with vlasic, he certainly was one of the only bright spots this season, maybe not cutting it in training, beni is very good , but is this the only time he's been out of the squad since coming in ?

We had 60% possesion against leicester, so that really counts for nothing does it really, cause if you dont score , then whats the use in it ?

You thought we had played well on Saturday? 70% is the number people were ruling dyche out for because that's what Liverpool had against Burnley. We couldn't get the ball off the bottom club and unlike us against Leicester they looked extremely threatening

it was always going to be a backs to the wall job down there though,they are in front of their own fans, they are scrapping as much as us, they know we are lacking almost everything at the moment, their tales were up after the chelsea game, they are going to throw everything and the kitchen sink at us, to get point under them conditions was a result in my eyes.you can have all the possession you want, without end product its useless, surely

I'd say we are worse under Unsworth.
We've been extremely lucky to get 4 points in 5 games.
His picking starting 11 is baffling, tactics laughable, ignoring Vlasic just weird and our performances horrible.

Everton committed 26 fouls during the Palace game, the most of any team in Europe’s top five leagues on Saturday.

Palace held 68.5% of possession.

Palace out-passed Everton 539-250.

Everton completed 65.6% of its passes.

26.4% of Everton’s passes were long balls.

Everton were forced into 34 tackles.

Sticking with Everton’s passing stats, the final data point of note was that Jordan Pickford was Everton’s top pass completion player against the Eagles.

All that against Crystal fucking Palace.

Yes, he is "one of us", "gets us" and is really a likeable person, but that doesn't mean much. I love my mum but don't want her to be Everton manager.

We need a proper manager asap. Dyche's Burnley is Barcelona compared to us. I can't see 3 worse sides than us at the moment.

Those stats are fucking shocking

They way our midfield was playing ..trying an untested youth was playing safe at the time 😅

That makes no sense to me as it is, maybe you could modify it.

No doubt its not going great, but he inherited a broken team that previous manager was publicly calling shit.

He's been only stable influence at club in past couple of weeks, and fans are running him down because of fear.

If we treated young players like some fans have treated Unsworth, I wouldn't expect any to make it.

Whether he can do it or not, people are trying to make sure he can't, through fear or whatever.

Totally agree, it was unfair of Everton to put him in the position where we, then, us all think there’s a possibility of him taking over full time.

That isn’t, and shouldn’t have ever been a possibility right now. As you say, he was handed a broken team, bottom three, confidence fucked, fans up in arms - not a great time to blood a young manager. In fact it was basically horrible and could have really hurt his reputation.

And now he’s in the shitty situation where he knows he’s not really getting the job, and we’re getting further into the season and still leaking goals like a sieve while manager after manager slips away or turns us down.

It’s fucking shite, I’m sad for unsworth, I’m angry at the board, I’m sick to fucking death of talking about it, and yes, I amterrified of going down, not even to mention how bored I am of seeing us be so shite.

I honestly don’t understand why anyone would think unsworth is the answer, I mean he wouldn’t get an interview at any other prem club, but here we are.

I’ve said before it would be great if it worked out, it would be a dream. But saying oh it worked for Guardiola, Klopp, Tuchel, Zidane...right sure, it also worked for Beethoven when he played piano but it doesn’t mean I can? And I certainly shouldn’t try if it means Everton go down if I can’t string a fucking tune together.

It's like Barcelona playing a side at the bottom. People are actually claiming it was a good performance too. We were dreadful. I don't see any sign of anything getting any better.

Finally a post that puts honesty first, well said.
