Lampard being inexperienced and a bit shit is one thing, but for an Everton fan (with all their expectations) to want Steve Bruce? I call bullshit.

Gemmill 44901 Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 Little Everton stat attack for you here lads: At this point in the season, they have... Most defeats in any season in their history, at 15. Fewest points in any season in their history, at 22. Most goals conceded since the 1976-77 season at 46. On track for their lowest EVER points per game at 0.88 - the closest they've ever come to that is 1.03. The ghost of Roy Castle is getting ready for an open top bus parade at the end of the season.

Gemmill 44901 Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 Imagine what they'll be like when they drop into the relegation zone. We don't have to worry about Watford and Norwich anymore, but Everton do. There's a clip on YouTube from Sky Sports where I nicked those stats above from, and it's Carragher talking about Everton saying their back 4 is Championship standard, and they're physically weak all over the park and can't run. He also thinks Goodison will save them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm beginning to think that people have no idea what demotion would do the club. Catastrophic is probably the only way to describe it. I for one cannot countenance the top tier of football without Everton being there." 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He also thinks Goodison will save them. Lampard can’t organize a defence, he had all the pieces at Chelsea and they conceded goals for fun. As you say now they have poor players in defence, it’s really not the type of manger they needed - it was a bizarre choice as he was always going to be a gamble. They currently have Jonjoe Kenny, recently returned from loan at Celtic and is a workmanlike player, Nathan Patterson, recently bought from Rangers and is basically just a prospect, Mason Holgate, , Michael Keane, they bought the wrong Burnley CB, Yerry Mina, strong CB if a little hot headed and inconsistent, Mykolenko, new full back who Lampard doesn’t seem to rate, Ben Godfrey, Championship defender, Coleman, good player clearly in his twilight years (also how have they spent 500m and not brought in someone that genuinely competes with him?), Jarrad Braithwaite, another prospect. I know people say they have too much quality to go down but honestly looking at that defence they have hardly any talent there, Mina is good and Keane is serviceable but the latter is out of any sort of form. Layer in the above point that Lampard had a defence like Chelsea’s looking leaky as fuck and they’re in real fucking trouble. 2 minutes ago, Tom said: What to Everton contribute exactly?

He reckons 4 they'll get 4 points, which given their current situation is very punchy. If he's right about them being physically weak, they're gonna hate meeting the new and even more improved since the last time they met him Joelinton.

So which one out of Wolves who, Man City, Liverpool and Chelsea aside have the meanest defence in the division and us does he reckon that sackless bunch of cunts are going to beat? I reckon they'll get ZERO points from both games. And I'm being generous! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howay 12496 Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 (edited) Aye, I can’t see them beating us or Wolves tbh. We will possibly have Bruno and ASM starting, both desperate to get into a side which has been winning every fucking game (the latter who absolutely ripped them to bits last time). They could draw those games but I don’t know how anyone could possibly predict Everton winning any fixture given their record. I said the same about us until we started looking good, no matter the opposition how can you predict a win for a team that have won 1 game under that manager? Let alone against one of the form sides in the league and the other is chasing Europe. Edited March 8, 2022 by Howay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aside from that I can't see them beating anyone the way they're playing. They struggled to knock Boreham Wood out of the FA Cup FFS! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
