Saturday 5:30 kick off.
Hate playing Spurs, especially away.Pickford
Kenny Holgate Jagielka Martina
Gana Schneiderlin Rooney
Lennon Tosun Sigurdsson
2-0 Spurs - Kane at the double.
0-3 Tosun hattrick.Wow
Pretty low expectations for this one, very interested if we've found a striker that will help us build attacks in these types of games where we'll presumably be sitting back.1-0 lookman
Lose 3 1
Kane 2 alli 1
Own goal for us
6 games without a win after this one.Ahh but the Sam crew will tell you we only actually played in three games .....The shite,Wba, Bournmouth we did fuck all but park Sam's bus.

This whole "us" and "them" thing that's going on in this forum at the moment is getting bloody tedious. There's hardly any rational argument, just pathetic sniping, constantly.
Season is over. What's the point.Tbh we where in a similar situation at this stage last season and went on a good run of form, especially at home - if we get a good run together we can still get 7th again (don't think we will like, but it's possible, burnley will drop off)
Don't upset the Sam people, they will accuse you of having an agenda
How many times are you going to repeat this incredibly hilarious stuff?He's got a while to catch up the Realdunc tbf

Cenk
But Ally to dive badly and get them a pen and throw a two footed tackle in on someone that the ref completely misses although he has to get out the way of it ...like every other game the cunt plays in.
I'd love to play against Ali. The cunt wouldn't know what hit him.
Like you( or anyone else who isn't a pro footballer) would ever get close to him!
Behave @Brownie20 (http://www.nsno.co.uk/forums/index.php?action=profile;u=169) , and put away the whiskey.
I'd love to play against Ali. The cunt wouldn't know what hit him.id cloths line the fucker, seen a red for it before

I've played in a game where a player ended up in prison.Sounds like the old Konica league o wales 😅😅...I played for Harlech and Barmouth ....dirty fucking league.

I just need one chance mate. I'm still fairly fit (not as much as I was granted). The fact he's about 5 inches taller than me too is not a problem.
I'd love to play against Ali. The cunt wouldn't know what hit him.You do know you can't pick the ball up or straight arm tackle him!

We're on a downer again and I can't see us getting anything out of this unless Topgun can inspire us with some fresh ideas in the final third, assuming we get that far into their territoryI'm hoping topgun is a typo
So how are Spurs doing at wembley? They won there yet?Played 14, Won 9, Drawn 4, Lost 1
Is this 530 kick off?
Yes mate and I think it is on BT SportFfs

Cheers lads.Got a mate who runs a pub round there just off the beaten track, can't remember what its called though
Was thinking the Raven as its a blue pub init but could well be chocka.
Think I'll try that champs at the end of the road.
Slightly worrying that we're on a run of 5 without a win and this is probably a harder game than all of those. Plus we've only scored 2 goals in that time.
I can't really see anything other than a defeat but I'll be hoping for a 0-0.
BTW I've got pretty bad toothache at the moment so I'm not at my most cheerful, in case you hadn't noticed.
They're going to shag us senseless.An I recon game on COYB
We're going to look like villa or West Ham here.

Good in there, always chocka on a Saturday night, old Bank over the road as well. South Road is great for nights out.

Got a mate who uses hair powder on a baldy head and another mate who's had a transplant.
Tosun has got a transplant but continued to lose his hair so he's filling it in with powder. Rooney does the same. Have a look at how thick his hair is at KO compared to when he comes off

OK. I've never heard of hair powder.It’s a fucking bizarre thing like.
Last week against the shite
It's a fucking bizarre thing like.Stop right now and just out yourself it’s you isn’t it?
It's kind of like ground up coal, comes in a carton that's a bit like a salt shaker and you have to put it on in a weird circular motion.
Have a lot to thank my mates for.

Wouldn't it just streak down your face as the match progresses, making Rooney and Cenk look anything but progressive..Look like goaljiras avatar
How about we buy a fucking left-back eh.Oh yea forgot about the footie just caught up with the idea of luxurious locks of dusky blond hair,

How are we for streams?What running down the face halfway thu the game? We will have to see mate

Harry Kane is shite
Coyb
i always thought that the ball had to go forward from kick off. obviously wrong...Big Sam suggested the change..
Tucson had his touch yet?

That was so easy to ge to Aurier
With a proper left back this could actually be a good formation. Promising.
Surely that's a booking. When did refs stop following the rules and just started making it up as they go alongAnnoying, as soon as it happens with one of ours they'll be booked
Looked on.
Precisly why we need a left back. Their right back has owned that side all game.
That was hilarious defending.Would have laughed if it wasn't Everton.
Cocu looking like a seven year old school boy just remembering he is supposed to be a defender.
What the fuck was Cuco doing there. No closing down at all. Idiot.
In his defence Martina was left totally exposed there, to his right, left and in front of him. Damned if he damned if he didn't whatever he did then.
In his defence if he comes to the ball son gets left on his own. You can't expect him to do well in 1 on 2sI expect him to keep his position and him to do the same regarding others in our team.
Not Martina's fault - he went to cover the middle where Jags and Holegate should of been ...
I expect him to keep his position and him to do the same regarding others in our team.
Yes Sig was nowhere to be seen but cocu was even further away considering his job is to defend first and foremost.
Changes needed at half time:Agree with the first, don't want to see schnierderlin
Lookman on Bolasie off
Schneiderlin on McCarthy off
Wish bolaise would have a go at just running at the defender. He's constantly slowing it down in an attempt to start a trick. Pick it up and run..... fast

I like bolaise a lot. Just think he's getting little change out of them with slowing it down. Needs to be more direct
how was that a booking?He was saving Kanes on Holgate for better use..
Take Mccarthy off for Lookman and move Sig insideAll day long my mate, he will score off the bench too
It’s painful watching us try to build attacks.
We can buy all of the goal scorers we want and it won’t fix the problems.
To me he's just one of those players who prefers to look good with a trick rather than do something effective. Used to hate playing with those type of players.
Take Mccarthy off for Lookman and move Sig inside
Give him a break he's not played for over a year. It'll take time to get up to speed both mentally and physically.
Haven't looked too bad there but nothing clear cut.Totally agree however isn’t it brill that we are at least giving them a game
Wish bolaise would have a go at just running at the defender. He's constantly slowing it down in an attempt to start a trick. Pick it up and run..... fast
We could do with Rooney coming off for Lookman or Lennon really, put them of the left and Move Sig in to the middle.
Bolasie is seriously lacking sharpness though.
BT Sport charge £32 a month by the way
That's why i jibbed it, costs fuck all in the boozer

Watching the replay, Look how fucking deep Cocu was when we conceded
It was just horrendously poor by a good handful of players.
Has Tosun lost a header?

Any mobile streams? I got in late and watched the last 20 mins on a Turkish stream.Mobro
Except the price of the booze
Even less on KodiGet mobdro on kodi get the lot
More impressive is his decisions when he shields and brings it down.
i'm a bit behind.. put my stream on pause, only just finished the first half
Bolassie is playing garbage,, he needs to go off... Rooney is meh, Martina is doing ok, but out of position and not able to go forwards at all ;/
Holgates played pretty well, He's making that right CB position his own, probably our only un touchable player in any position atm, McCarthys played well also, he's shit going forwards tho..
need some DCL LOOKMAN VLASIC magik... Yannick Wayne off.. hope 2 of those 3 come on..
COYB
36 quid = several pints, a blowie off a brass or a kebab
Decent half, bad goal aside.
Liking Tosun a lot.
Ah JJ mate
Too keen there lad
I’ll have some of that Dr
I'm always amazed at how open we are in these 2 DM formations. It only takes one pass or dribble to create something.
Is Davies fit? Because Gana-Davies-Rooney is the only midfield we have that is remotely functional.
Like United last time, Spurs stepped it up and we cant go with them.

He'll have a hattrick. Hope not though. I predicted 3-0 to them.
Nice from spurs fans for Lennon
Just poor. Will be surprised if we register a shot on target the whole game.Same here, defence is starting to look a little leaky again and we offer absolutely fuck all going forward.
Well allardyce honeymoon period is definitely over
Rooney is at walking pace, this is fucking awful
Be assed watching this. Off to make dinner
What are you cooking?
Cenk going off to see if he can get a refund and go back to Turkey.Feel embarrassed for the lad
Trying dumplings. First effort was horrendous so I'm giving it another go

Trying dumplings. First effort was horrendous so I'm giving it another go
We'll be getting our 4th manager of the season if this continues, looks like the relegation battle could be back on
What a complete joke of a season
11 dumplings on the pitch at Wembley right now lolYou mean puddings
Dusky Blond ?
Another game we fail to register a shot on target under big Sam.Apart from the disallowed goal of course
That's an ambitious sub.
We are proper terrible aren't we, like proper shit.Thanks means a lot that
I actually hate watching us now more than at the end of the Martinez era or at any point under Koeman, even the shite just before he got sacked.
At least Walcott knows how to score against these.
I would like that very much.
Was Allardyce really watching the 4-0 v West Ham when Rooney scored a hat-trick and played really well from a deep-lying midfield position?
We need to get Guardiola in and give £1b then we might get top 6
To be fair I don’t think it’d suit him against a side that presses so high.
Massive chasm to the top 6 nowadays. We need to spend £200m minimum.Think we need to spend that just to stay up

No it's Indian rosewoodTell by the grain
Pickford needs to fuck off giving the ball straight back to the opposition.
Martina is not good enough to be on a football pitch, never mind at left back.
Kenny is just not up to scratch, blocks the odd cross but that's about it.
Rooney is so fuckin wasteful with the ball, he seems to fuck up the simplest of passes.
Massive chasm to the top 6 nowadays. We need to spend £200m minimum.

Sigurdsson is a wasted shirt on the left.
We are no where near as bad as we were under Koeman full stop. Fuckinell hate it on here when we get beat sometimes.
No doubt we will all have a wank over the agm coz for a change they tell it half truths. Then when reality hits and we see the gulf in performances between spurs and us. Not long ago this would be a winnable game or atleast we would match them. They have improved in the years and we have gone backwards. Same old we wond’t be competing while Kenwright has any input in the club apart from being a supporter like the rest of us
We are no where near as bad as we were under Koeman full stop. Fuckinell hate it on here when we get beat sometimes.
I would sort of like to see what another £200m could net us in slow centre backs, midfielders who can't pass, and attackers with good but hard-to-repeat goalscoring records from the previous season.Totally agree it’s not a case of throwing money at the team we need a manager with a plan
Let's not be throwing Kenny under the bus because of one bad game now.
"Not long ago this would have been a winnable game” ? Mate, we haven't beat them for ten years, is 11 years ago not long ago ?Time is all a matter of perception
This performance is just as bad as under Koeman this season. Not even a shot of target, we're not even competing.
Totally agree it’s not a case of throwing money at the team we need a manager with a plan
He's had more bad than good.
Let's not be throwing Kenny under the bus because of one bad game now.
Our game plan under Allardyce: Get everyone behind the ball, have 2 or 3 defensive midfielders who create fuck all and hope we snatch a 1-0
Christ has it really come to this.
The 180 from Martinez is complete
No he hasn't, not at all.
He's been very good but was done today by one of the best players in the league.
He'll learn from that today.
We desperately need capable defending left and right backs. NOW!!!!
Enough of playing a kid who's learning on the job and an average at best right back at left back.
This performance is just as bad as under Koeman this season. Not even a shot of target, we're not even competing.
Allardyce has got his work cut out if he wants the job on a longer basis as our season is over, the players know it and our results for the rest of the season will be all over the place.
We'll be ok at home as the crowd will demand effort but I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't win again away from home this season.
Still, on the plus side, I just got sent an inspiring video from a 23 year-old foot doctor I'm thinking of seeing.
The inspiring video was Dead Poet's Society.
Not really, it was her sponging her tits and arse in the shower.
Night, lads 🤞🏼
Last 6 games we’ve managed 5 shots on target.
5
We'll be fighting a top 10 finish and still at Goodison in 5 years time. Nothing is changing.
get out of it Kenny has done great this year
Needs more ooomph.Just 5 shots
i agree. i honestly think moshiri is a sham. nothing he has done so far has proven positive for the club. every single decision he has made has been a mistake. every single one of them.Do you always write shite like that? We are all upset at seeing how crap our players are but think before you blame the majority shareholder. He has the money not the football brain.
Still think we could be in danger of going down
Why aren't they talking about how good son was?Mom kane
See, he was the best player there but all they can talk about is Harry Kane because he scored a couple of tap ins.
Still think we could be in danger of going down
Mom kane
Son ran the show but fuck that, he's not kane or alli
Also, Bolasie Should look at how simple son makes a winger look, no fucking around just pace, power and simplicity
How the fuck are we 9th in the table?
The premier league has at least 10 championship quality sides in it.
Was a minor point overall but just before half time the ball dropped to him about 10 yards outside the box.Yes
It just needed a control short pass inside and a run in behind.
Instead he rolled his foot over the ball and lost control of it when it was completely unnecessary.
Based on our performances this season, how is it possible that there are 11 worse teams?

But he's friggin 19!!
If our ambitions are to even compete for top 7-8 we can't be having him learn on the job against the top 6.

He could simplify his game massively tho and be useful

He certainly wasn't worth £27m when we bought him.
Is bolasie that good? I've got my doubts tbh
Yep, looking for the overlap of the full back for one.I dont think he's a footballer
I think the injury stopped any hope of him being a major success here.
I don't know why we took Lennon out when he puts in so much work which helps Kenny too.
We can't afford passengers and we have too many in the side right now, and Bolasie is one of the worst offenders.
Genuinely I think he's one of the reasons this current wobble is happening. I don't really know why we switched from Holgate and Williams when it was working, and I don't know why we took Lennon out when he puts in so much work which helps Kenny too.

Lennon doesn’t offer much at the top end so in an attempt to improve the attacking he’s shoehorned Bolasie back in quicker than necessary, for me.
Think he’s swayed a bit to public opinion to go for it a bit more instead of trying to kill the game’s completely.
I seem to remember our form improved just around the same time he got injured last season.
Yeah, I get that, but it's not working.
No goals.... AgainWe had a goal disallowed surely a shot was on the end of it
No shots on goal.... Again
A not horrendus first half... Again
A horrendus second half.... Again
I just happy Sam has got us a working defence again... Oh wait.
I don't mind if we defend with 10 men for 90 minutes, hoping to nick a goal from a set piece, but let's do it properly then.
Yeah I think he should have been kept for home games (or like Bournemouth with 3 DMs as security).
There’s very little between 7th and 18th at the minute. Such a poor league and we have a manager who has spent his career in those 11 places. How did it get to this shite situation?
We had a goal disallowed surely a shot was on the end of it
Nothing will ever change until changes are made at the top. We can’t compete as we have a chairman who can’t compete in the modern game. Nothing has improved since mid moyes era, admittedly he would prob still be here, the only reason he ain’t is coz he fucked us off
Because we all got giddy counting the money we were spending rather than looking at who we were spending it on?
On one hand I honestly haven’t got a clue how to fix this, on the other, I just think we need better players in almost every position.
Moshiri said there would be a few bumps in the road but I wonder if he realises just he far off we are and that we’ve gone backwards, because we have. If I was him I’d literally sack everyone on the football side of things, bring in a top DoF and start again.
The alternative would be to gave the/a manager loads of time and money...

This is the root of the issue.
I've gone to really liking the side under 1st season wonder Martinez (Lukaku, Barkley, Deulofeu, Stones, Coleman etc) to really...I don't know what this is. The concerning thing for me is, I've usually had a favourite player in whatever side we put out (or even a good handful at certain times...Cahill, Arteta, Pienaar, etc, etc), but I couldn't tell you who that is right now...and that feels weird.
I don't really exude excitement for any of these players lining up. I mean, I still like them generally speaking, and I still have respect for certain players like Jagielka...but it feels different at the moment. Overall that feels like a pretty sad statement to make as a fan.
Anyone else struggling to with a favourite player these days or just me?
Hard to believe,aint it?
Off topic, Chilwell got a red today so will he miss the game at Goodison?
What a job Allardyce is doing eh
5 shots on target in 6 games though haha
Anyone looking for anything different from Bolasie clearly didn’t see him at Palace.That is sacrilege. Anyone criticising him before he was injured got slated. He is not fit yet but I don't hold out too much hope for his future here.

We're back to it being the players fault, excellent news.
No, its some blaming Allardyce. Which is absolutely fucking bizarre.
Doesn’t help that all bar Jags and McCarthy today haven’t been in the team for more than 18 months of which only about 6 of them have been positive!

4 coaches in what? 3 1/2 seasons... and the same shit being delivered since the start of RM's second season.
I was born in 79, so have vague memories of the glory days of the 80’s. Just asking but has it ever been this bad? Not just talking about Everton but the league as a whole, the point being that has it ever been so uncompetitive. There is the elite where the top four become a thing which has now evolved Into the top 6, surely the point of being in the league is to win it. Football is becoming a chore and that in my eyes is that it’s on its way out unless things change, maybe it’s too late for a change. How can any supporter be happy watching any club outside the top 6 getting twatted week in week out by he elite, or parking the bus as we have been guilty of in the hope of a point or a snide win, losing interest myself, maybe it will catch on!
The world becoming a smaller place has meant that top teams now buy the best players in the world; thus widening the gap between themselves and the rest.
Thirty years ago you would but the top player from Scotland or the Wales captain and it would give you hope for the season.
Teams main form of income was gate receipts so the top five teams could cherry pick the players from the rest of the division. If a player wanted to make real money he had to play for a top team; a whole career, let alone one contract, at West Ham or Southampton would not set a player up financially for life as is the case today.
But even in those days with our financial advantage we never really made it count. We would back a manager a one player at a time, breaking transfer records now and again, but never signing three or four at once to really challenge the top team. We also never showed any real ambition when it came to managers. Despite regularly being linked with the likes of Clough and Robson we always went for an up and coming manager, in my time it only worked once; Howard Kendall.
I've never known Everton to be ambitious, even when we had more going for us than most teams. I go back to 1975.
Was a minor point overall but just before half time the ball dropped to him about 10 yards outside the box.
It just needed a control short pass inside and a run in behind.
Instead he rolled his foot over the ball and lost control of it when it was completely unnecessary.
Is he capable of kicking the ball without rolling his foot over it first?
I remember that on the edge of the box... just create a chance ffs
I’ve said it all along, he’s a one trick pony and that’s his trick, every defender in the fuckin league has worked it out.
No, its some blaming Allardyce. Which is absolutely fucking bizarre.
What is so bizzare about blaming the manager for us losing 4-0?
The left hand side of the squad is shocking
Baines - past it on the decline
Garbutt - not good enough
And that’s it !
We have no other naturally left sided players.
Sigurdsson wasted on the left and lacks the pace and discipline to play as a winger.
4-0 when we set out to defend. Brilliant going Sam. What a fraud.
Did you watch the game?
There is no way we set out to defend.
The managers post match comments where spot on.
After the 2nd goal went in the attitude, performance and professionalism of the players was shocking.
schniderlin practically gave up
Did you watch the game?It’s incredible we know our weakness and where players should be played why are they constantly played out of position or in snides case played at all!

How many shots on target did we have? How many touches in the box?
How many shots on target did we have? How many touches in the box?
That's more because we were rubbish and stopped playing at 2-0.
The line up, plus you could see we left the wider players a bit higher up and Rooney was at 10 rather than in midfield wasn't a sit in approach.
Problem was that wasn't the right thing to do...
Nah, he looks to defend further up but not to attack.
Did you watch the game?You do realise the 2nd goal went in after 47 mins and schneiderlin only came on in the 72nd minute?

The world becoming a smaller place has meant that top teams now buy the best players in the world; thus widening the gap between themselves and the rest.I was fortunate to watch football from the mid sixties and had the honour of watching the likes of Howard Kendal and Alan Ball play when they came to the old Dell ground in Southampton matches against Everton ,win ,loose or draw ( usually Loose ) these were always fantastic end to end matches as many were during thoses days. The trouble in my opinion is these days too much money, yes players are finacally more secure but they have no real love,/loyalty to their present employeer. Prior to the destruction of football (premier league era) the game was played with passion with truely passonate fans now the fans are treated as cash cows to be milked for every penny they can. I don't think this wll ever change sadly.

Maybe he gave up while still on the bench and shrugged his bib off.
At least give the right players stick.

Nothing but the best my arse.
