Everton v Newcastle United - Official Build Up / Match Day Thread

The tactics Pardew talked about, worked on all week were spot on. Draw you on, hit on the break (we did this well 2nd half). He set us up to do so.

Unfortunately we have a pair of *****s for full backs who couldn't decipher tactical discipline if they were given 3 lifetimes. They can't even work out the basic principle of not being caught forward at the same time. Jesus its the most basic thing you are taught as a full back. "imagine you are connected on a rope, what happens if you pull one end?". Our bloody school coach used to the back four together to help you understand. Then you have Mbiwa who decided he didn't fancy having to compete with big nasty Roman and just ****ed off.

I'd love to blame Pards but Santon, Debuchy, Mbiwa, Colo, Krul, Sissoko, HBA performances yesterday were inexcusable as professional footballs. Ill disciplined, lazy and lacking any sort of care in some cases.

 

But at what point does this lack of effort or discipline stem from the manager?

 

The point where they've all lost respect for him?

 

That's quite a while back
