scoring one or two goals from open play might help

We need to perform better, whatever the result is. If we play well for a run of matches, plenty of us will get off his back. A lot of Evertonians are just looking for some sign of progress, something that suggests that we aren't going to be crap for the rest of the season with Koeman in charge.

A result from another shit performance will only prolong our misery and delay the inevitable.

I miss the optimism I had from that first Sandro goal in pre-season against Sevilla.
There was pace, there was movement, there was 1-touch passing there was correct decision-making, there was a composed finish and it all happened in about 60 seconds.
I was ready to start singing 'We're gonna win the league' at that point.

Start a game on the front foot for a change then, how often do we go in at half time having not scored or being behind under koeman? We start games far too slowly with no urgency

If the players show effort & willingness the crowd will respond

Nah. Results are everything. Confidence follows

Scoring the first goal would be a start and a probable difference maker, a good deserved win on Thursday could give us confidence and should allow us to build a platform to go on a run.

Another comment on the lines of the Cottee comment from yesterday.We known that mate,tell me how we are going to do it because I'm fucked if I know.

[bacon sarnie]

Fuck off Koeman.

[Bluedylan]

In the league, I'll accept signs of progress and improved performances (for now) if they come.

In the cups however, results are the be all and end all. Anything but a win here, and we're pretty much out of it, which is completely unacceptable.

[Cozzie]

Fuck off Koeman.

Pmsl. Dunno why I found this so funny, think it is because I pictured Yozza hughes saying it.

Wish people would stop saying this.

We need to start performing well.

We're not going to get a result against Lyon playing poorly.

It's time we started seeing some signs on the pitch that the manager is building towards a cohesive system.

Not even cohesive as such just a proper fucking system would do .
Baby steps an all that

to play well, we need a formation that doesnt shoe horn players in, also we need pace.. Lookman got taken out of the under 23's around months ago,promoted to the first team squad, from what i recall he hasnt played, let alone been in the match day squad... we can defend, but we struggle to attack.. wish koeman changes his 3-1 attack. It gives us no outlet.

Yozzer Hughes la. Shake hands!

Gizza job for RK if we lose this.
