Welcome aboard. At least his third account. No clue who it is

Welcome aboard.

Everton were very good. Make no mistake. They are a serious footballing side. Comparing them to "Stoke" is plain stupid. They are, however, a bunch of nancy boys. Their diving antics will work against them one day.

100% Air and graces. Excellent way to describe Pardew. Absolutely hate the sound he makes when he pronounces his "s's". So fucking contrived trying to sound like something he's not.

What the fuck does that even mean? Obviously a player passing a medical is vital otherwise what's the point? Pardew doesn't half come out with some shit. By far the worst "speaker" we've ever had as manager in my time supporting the club.

Should never play anywhere but the left side in a front 3. He's been awesome there.

Utter bollocks of an excuse!! It's not as if Cisse has never played up front ffs! What preparation? Can someone please explain to me how in the hell Ba leaving affected our preparation? It's not like Cisse would have to shoe-horned into a CF role! Fuck me man! I really can't get my head around it.

Bringing a player like Bigi when we're chasing the game is a ridiculously amateurish decision. You're basically bringing on a deer into the headlights. He should have started the game, and had a chance to measure the rhythm and understand the movement of the Everton players from minute 1. He's so young and inexperienced he won't know what to do coming on as a sub - for an attacking player no less - when we're trying to play catch-up. It's not the same as bringing on Sammy or Ranger as these two, despite their lack of experience are both forwards. Bigi isn't. Seriously. Everything points to Pardew having no idea what he's doing, and my hope is that the owner and his MD have learned enough about football to have seen this by now.

What really grinds on my nuts is his piss poor excuse for playing Cisse out wide again. Not enough preparation time my ass. It's a pathetic excuse from someone who is fast running out of excuses. If he had a clue how to manage a football team he would have no problems slotting players in and out of different positions as circumstances dictate. Oh, and clearly, Al mate, your preparation and "game plan" didn't work. Again. Fuck off. Sick of this shit now.

Watch the game again and count the number of times he gave the ball directly to an Everton player when passing forward. Really hoping the trip to SA will do him some good and he'll come back with a bit of perspective.

This guy doesn't have a fucking clue. Fellaini tangled with someone at some point in front of him, no one in the crowd made a sound, and you could hear him desperately pleading for a foul from the ref. He's completely out of his depth and anyone who thinks otherwise knows nothing about football. It's going to end in tears for him sooner or later. Might as well get rid while we still have some semblance of a chance to make it right.

we'll get a penalty.

Why didn't pass to Cisse?? ffs!!!!

If that's your criteria then it's Colo then. What utter bollocks. Tiote has just been taken off and rightly so. He has given away possession almost with every forward pass he's made. Complete liability.

:'(

Absolutely no footballer in this guy at the moment. He is costing us the game with every single woeful decision.

Fuck's sake Shola! He can't just pummel through players at every turn

FUCKN YEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Cisse with short sleeves and Senegal wrist bands! 4 goals tonight sweet prince! 4 goals!

Debuchy cam Sat next to Cabaye

Howay man get this bastard started already!

He's always been greedy but he seems especially reluctant to give it to Cisse. Maybe because he knows his (and Cisse's) link-up play is average at best. That doesn't really make any sense. If he's in a good position to pass to Cisse, then why should he not even if their general understanding of each other isn't the best? Football isn't so rigid man!
