TFG are our owners for now
- they’ve partly addressed some of our funding issues
- they seem to realise it’s best to try and employ the best CEO & Manager you can and then leave them to do their job
-they will use every accounting trick they can
Hull & Ipswich also have 10 points
This seems to be a season where there is no easy matches.
Yet I keep hearing we had an easy start.
10 points from 8
Only 5 teams have more than 11
Freefall?

Do you realise we are in free fall and will be near the drop zone by December 3rd?
Fair assessment of the individual games
But only 7 teams have won more games.
- there’s no easy games
- few teams are truly dominant often (just look at Brighton’s xG)
Plenty to criticise. But it has to be done in the context of the league.
Assessing Everton's start.
Unbeaten start doing heavy lifting? How many games have we truly dominated and played well?
2 wins from 8. Each game assessed.

18 months ago @Benjwinst was telling me to stop questioning the over the top positivity around Moyes
He now goes on the attack when I question the over the top negativity,
Maybe one day he and his mates will think about that. And the impact it has on the fanbase & club
Hasn’t he used every outfield player so far?
This is my point. Deliberately choosing to make things negative.
He’s far from perfect, But he’s using the squad more this season.
One half chance (if that) that forced a good save
Thierno Barry keeps missing chances for Everton.
But should that make them give up on him?
I compared last season, this season and his numbers against Premier League strikers to work out what Everton actually have.
The answer is interesting 👇

Perfect example of what’s happening now
Let’s choose the stars that show the club in a bad position
And criticise anyone that chooses a more positive spin.

Everton’s home form only looks strong if you isolate this season’s four games: 2 wins, 1 draw, 1 defeat, over the last 12 months in the PL: 19 home games, 6 wins, 4 draws, 9 defeats, 22 points and a -3 goal difference. That’s 14th for home points among the current 20.

Same goes for Man Utd btw, watch a sample of their games from 1994, 1999, 2004, 2008, 2012 and tell me what their 'playing style' was
Its why their ex players struggle to explain it beyond attacking, with pace and with wingers
The “analyst” community
(Or whatever you want to call them)
Love to criticise every aspect of the club.
Hate to have their views challenged.
They could be a force for good. At the moment they’re choosing to lead the hate mob.
It’s time for all the Everton “analysts” to stop and look around
@TacticallyMatt @Progression1878 @ScoutTom_ @greenallefc @PatricRidge and others
The recruitment isn’t right
The squad isn’t strong
Many are out of form
The tactics are dull
The in game decisions are poor
Etc
The PL is changing
Promoted sides have found a way to compete
We’re not the only “big club” that’s lost its way
The “smart” clubs are struggling to compete on all fronts
Tactics are changing & clubs are struggling to adapt
It’s not all about how crap we are.

Stop and look at the league table
Yes you’ve all raised great points about how the club could be run better.
But you miss how competitive the league is and how many issues every other club has
Manager is underperforming away (has been his strongest point until recently)
Only 3 teams have more points at home.
Won 5 of last 10 home games (all competitions
How can that possibly be underperforming?
