Whilst the new additions to the squad are very welcome - I do think our defence is a major weakness. Williams and Jagielka simply too old and Martina simply not good enough and Baines coming to the end of his EFC career (must be his last season)

As a result we will not break into top 6 never mind top 4

Koeman seems to be only looking at attacking options, the defence needs an overhaul.

I think baines is like a fine wine or a good cheese.


2.) 01 Aug 2017 07:12:34
Jesus bluewirral just how negative are you being again. our Def is ok I agree with you over martina but I have been very impressed with Keane Baines is still a good player and although I would rather use jags if koeman plays Williams so be it we need experience at CB. Our def was greatly improved last season being really hard to break down we knew we needed a keeper and got one we knew we needed a young CB we got one i'm sure you posted the other day which again was really negative so either your a red coming on to cause a stir or your just the most negative fan in the world if it's the second one I wouldn't want to sit by you at the game because there would be a few arguments going on i'm guessing why don't you just sit back enjoy the ride and watch us challenge top 4.


3.) 01 Aug 2017 07:45:20
Bluey, our defence is the weak link in comparison to the other positions. RB, Martina was a free and is a stopgap until A. Coleman is back and B. We identify (difficult in todays market) an ideal replacement. CB's will be Holgate, Kean eventually. We definitely need the LB position shoring up, backup for Baines and like the RB position identifying an ideal replacement.


4.) 01 Aug 2017 08:11:22
Agreed that defence is our weakness right now but we can't solve all our problems in one go. Baines (injury permitting) will be fine for majority of season, Keane and Williams need to be given a few games to build a partnership and to get match fit. Jags and Mason are both very decent back up options.
At RB Cucina is merely an experienced back up - not a great one I accept - but hopefully Kenny will get a chance as well until best RB in Prem recovers from injury.

But as Bluey said let's enjoy it and not write this season off before a ball is even kicked.


5.) 01 Aug 2017 09:09:03
What you have to remember is RK was a world class defender, if he feels we need to strengthen I'm sure he will, have faith we have kean and he's already looking a bargain, he may think we have options with holgate, and other youngsters until Coleman is back.


6.) 01 Aug 2017 09:28:39
If we get giroud, Baines will be back to his old self. Lukaku couldn't head a ball from the left leaving bainsy ineffective.


7.) 01 Aug 2017 09:34:40
my point being was bluewirral is very negative yes our Def is our weakest area but it isn't a poor Def Keane is a great signing Williams Welsh captain isn't as bad as some say jags is still club captain and Baines isn't over the hill yet we have signed a potential world class keeper and we have youngsters who are knocking on the door some people need to realise we can't fix everything in 1 go if koeman went out and bought a whole new def people would be moaning saying our strike force and mid r poor the club can't win.


8.) 01 Aug 2017 09:53:33
I think some are just looking for things to complain about our defenders are good quality with possibly one of the best defenders, ever, coaching them. Just check out the other teams defenders they are all pretty much in the same if not worse situation than us. At least we have a good blend of youth and experience and the youth has great potential. One thing I would say is give Martina some time he's played one competitive game in preseason he like the rest of the squad need to get up to match speed. He is a stop gap for Coleman after all. COYB.


9.) 01 Aug 2017 19:22:43
I can not believe people are questioning the defense. A simple stat that explains it all for me.

2015/ 16 season we finished joint 15th in defense.
2016/ 17 season we finished joint 6th in defense.

Simply because the first season in terms of defense we had a clueless one. Second season we had as said above a world class defender when he was playing.

Along with that we have Pickford who should also improve things more. We will have one of the best defense in the premier league next season. No doubt about it.

So Gibson is the first RK signing--what a statement of intent--more medicority--KOEMAN OUT.

bluewirralboy

{Ed025's Note - hes not even in yet mate.. :)


1.) 09 Jun 2016 23:21:28
I am hoping that is a large helping of sarcasm in that post!


2.) 10 Jun 2016 01:19:55
I am sure that Koeman who is not our manager yet would not be allowed to have any input into who gets contracts or who we are looking at until he is officially made the manager. So the question is "who is making the decisions at Everton about who gets contracts or who gets improved contracts or who's agent is contacted with a view to purchase? Presumably whoever was doing it for Martinez. Let's hope that not too many football decisions are made before Koeman and Monchi (or similar) are officially on board.


3.) 10 Jun 2016 06:35:27
Id be very surprised with that Mike. I just can't see contract renewals or extensions being done without some influence from the incoming manager. They are not under pressure in any way to lose a player who has contributed so little up to now. If he walked I'm sure they wouldn't be too bothered.

No, this must have some kind of input from RK. Maybe he's his kind of player. Two things that I remember from RK as a player was his free kicks and his passing range. Gibson has that same passing range that the manager may still see some value in.


4.) 10 Jun 2016 07:04:23
spot on toffee, it would indeed be surprising if player contract renewals, extensions and in and outs would be done without any input from our incoming new Manager, there would already have been discussions at an initial level on all of these things.


5.) 10 Jun 2016 08:30:39
He's probably on a pay as you play deal mate. Relax! . When he's actually on the pitch he's a really good player. Were you expecting Messi? .


6.) 10 Jun 2016 17:19:32
gibboEFC, given that he has played very few games during his 4yrs, 51 to be precise, just how many of those have been very good performances? If you can get to double figures I'd be amazed. Neither his performances nor his injury record during that period show that he is deserving of a contract extension.

Along with Stones and Barkley-Doris the tea lady has signed a new five year contract ending speculation that she was about to sign for another premiership club--the Everton rumours is simply getting better and better -roll on the new season.

bluewirralboy

1.) Aarf-Aarf!
I'm glad you called her Doris the tea lady - some n'er-do-wells were referring to her as Doris the tea bag.


2.) Or Doris the bag lady!

Will someone please tell me why Koeman waited till the 82nd minute before putting on a wide player with pace. And why did Sandro replace Calvert Lewin in the starting line up?
Koeman has to go -he is tactically inept.

Surprise Surprise you are being negative yet again.

Oh give it a rest, that was our 3rd game in less than a week away to the champions. We're in transition, it's not going to happen over night.

Should EFC now ban the Liverpool Echo
from Goodison and Finch Farm?

bluewirralboy

1.) 01 Aug 2017 20:52:50
Can I ask why this post re Echo has been written
I loathe the Red Echo and am constantly writing about them .
I never known a more biased paper .
I am suprised more people have not been more pro active about it .
They are biased beyond belief .
It's even has a red motif and they even put LFC posts on the EFC web page
Long gone are the days of Michael Charters
Anyone remember him?


2.) 01 Aug 2017 21:30:48
It was concerning an article written about Liverpool’s pursuit of the Leipzig player and comparisons made in bad taste.


3.) 01 Aug 2017 01:30:47
Where has all your positivity gone? You were going to win the league 3 weeks ago you were getting a new stadium you were signing the best players in Europe the way you were all talking. Has reality hit you all? Thought it might 😉.


4.) 02 Aug 2017 06:46:35
And you lot have been going to
be winning the league every year for the last 27yrs . Reality certainly hasn't hit you yet as it? Obviously not 🔔end.


5.) 02 Aug 2017 07:31:49
come on jimmyc they win the league every Oct celebrate a 2-2 draw with West Brom in Nov then get the bring king Kenny flags out in Jan lfc the club that keeps on giving 😂😂😂.


6.) 02 Aug 2017 12:26:07
It relates to McGoverns recent rants and the disgracful comparisons he makes. Nothing surprises me about this person.

As for the echo. It's a completely irrelevant paper unless you're starting a fire.

{Ed025's Note - i hate the echo john, but i played footy with derek many moons ago and he was actually a very nice guy..

After tonites game we need to sign 6 new players--
Mirallas has to go Keane looked like a yard dog Martina looked like Hibbert. Rooney very disappointing--its a good job we were playing a very poor team
There was not one player who played well--team too static too slow and devoid of any ideas--so 7th again.

Calm down, it's not even august, it's the middle of pre season. Give them a bit of time.

Went to the U23s final game v Liverpool-whilst we did not deserve to lose--we looked distinctly average--must be a very poor league if we are the best.

Very few if any of that team will make the first team inc Pennington who looked very poor on the night.

bluewirralboy

1.) 10 May 2017 16:42:13
bluewirralboy you need to lighten up lad. Your last 3 posts have depressed me no end. According to you we have a crap youth team a crap first team, a striker that must be sold at all costs. A winger not worth a contract extension. Least the pies are good at half time eh. No don't tell me, yours was cold.


2.) 10 May 2017 17:01:39
Toffee ace--my half- time pie was not cold-jus past its sell by date--just like half our squad.


3.) 10 May 2017 17:39:44
Tbh Wirral, we had won the league so no point overdoing anything. Our u23s have beaten some good sides this season. Did ok in checkatrade trophy if I remember rightly. A league is marathon not a sprint so we won it fair and square. Well done boys.


4.) 10 May 2017 19:24:29
Quite right Geoff. It's getting bad when our team who have just won their league are being slated. I know it's frustrating losing to that lot any time but Jesus we won the league!

{Ed025's Note - well said coyb..

I was at the game and our first half performance lacked intensity the team seem devoid of ideas and Stones in particular was incredibly slow on the ball and allowed Norwich time to get into a defensive shape.
The crowd booed as a result of frustration.

It is about time that Robles is given an extended run in the team. this must be Howards last season. We need to evaluate whether Roble is the long term replacement and we can only do that if he is playing.

We simply do not need another wide player--pienar/mcgeady/mirallas and Astu gives us sufficent options

I absolutely agree--we will not beat any of the top 6 sides away from home--already 7th position is the best we can hope for--same old same old.

A new contract for Jags and a rumoured new contract for Barry--what a joke--we are supposed to be moving forward--this is a giant backward step--just blocks the pathway for the younger players to come through--

Jags and Barry are not the future--get rid now--.

Are you on drugs--pleased with what you saw? it was a very poor performance and very disappointing. The build up play was very slow-very predictable and very Everton--its going to be anothr long season.
