18 points from 42 for Everton since New Year.

Puts them on course for a 59 point finish. They need to up their game big time.

Games like this today, just shoulda put Palace away and bagged an easy 3. But its surprised no one, least of all the Everton fans that they ****ed it in the last minutes.

Obviously tho its the bench, they're nowhere near good enough and one or two injuries cripple Everton.

It's damning that you can say "these two are out, we will drop points today."

I don’t reckon they’ll bother the top 4. That looks like it’ll be a shootout between you lot, Liverpool and Chelsea for 3rd and 4th and possibly Spurs if they actually start defending properly.

We could end up seeing 4th lose out if Arsenal win Europa and Liverpool/Chelsea win CL.

I think its impressive that when you have a bad game or go on a bad run, he seems to get them all playing again and climbing up the table, which shows he's not some clueless dope. He clearly has talent.

But, like you said, what you have now is exactly what you'll have if he managed you for the next 20 years. It won't change or improve, this is just as good as he is. But who would you even want to come in and replace him?

I don't think he does tbh. It's certain players saving him atm. Our form this season is directly linked to Pogba and Fernandes playing together. It wasn't fatigue affecting Fernandes (that bloke will play every game if he could), it was Pogba's absence when he was out injured. It's easy to say that when Fernandes is off form the team underperforms, but it's not that at all, Fernandes and the team are far better when we have both playing, they improve each other.

We have the making of a great midfield partnership. I doubt there's much Ole is doing to influence that tbh. And when Pogba's been out this season, the thing that's been saving Ole is individual moments of brilliance in games from nothing, not some well-crafted team goal or expansive pass and move attacking football.

The only thing that Ole had going for him was that he had RMG all firing last season on all cylinders. Now Martial has fallen off the earth, Greenwood has struggled for goals and we even have a world class gunman who’s only managed about 6 goals.

Surely it’s Ole’s job to get them firing? The bloke is the biggest fraud going.
