Marco Silva | No longer Everton manager

[Castia]

Absolute shambles.

You would think at 10-0 they’d wrap it up or atleast tone it down...why the feck would you go and score 22 goals....lol.

 

[Tomuś]

Why are they even playing such an awful side?

You can only beat what's in front of you. Safe to say they did.

 

[whatwha]

A slap in the face to all those in the previous page who were predicting him to fail.

 

[Morpheus 7]

I fail to see the point of this game, it's not a proper game to even get fitness up. Who ever planned Everton's pre season is a dope. It's very embarrassing for them other poor fellas. Not to worry though, I'm sure Everton will be put to the sword more than once this season.

 

[sglowrider]

Seems like he has sorted out their attack.

And that was only with six outfield players. Imagine what it would have been like with a full team.

 

[broccoli]

I didn't see the whole match but it seemed the Austrians were very sour losers and started to use triangle for their keeper to run up the field, as soon as they were a couple goals down.

From the Austrian camp i've heard some complaints about a possible offside for the 17th goal and that the "game was broken".

Imagine how pissed off their fanbase would be if there was an ATVFTV

"I've fecking had enough Robbie. Every week, it's 22-0."

Seems very odd to arrange a game against such poor opposition though.

The 19th goal really changed the complexion of the game

 

[T00lsh3d]

Just on Marco Silva, he was brilliant at Hull. The history books will say “relagated at Hull”, but that’s about as unfair a representation as you can get. He took a completely disjointed side that had zero hope, brought in a bunch of low-budget signings and got them playing like a cohesive team. It really was a night and day difference. One result different and people would have been talking about one of the great premier league survivals.
Can’t comment obviously with personal experience on his time at Watford, but it did seem to be going well up to the non-move to Everton.

 

[settembrini]

With the away goal rules they actually won 0-44.

 

[KM]

Well it'll be all downhill from here.

 

[Castia]

Fancy being 15-0 up though and still going for goals....makes Everton look like a right set of cnuts imo what a shambles.

Imagine in the 89th minute and your winning 22-0 why are they even playing at that point in a friendly game?

 

[golden_blunder]

Not happy at all. Tosun was isolated too often, no support from the flanks and full backs didn’t get forward. Zombie passing, no midfield movement and Michael Keane was a joke at the back! Coward manager. Lucky we didn’t get beat in this match!

Sarcastic there, mate. Imagine being a relatively big PL club being bullied financially over renting training facilities in a no man's land from a beer league team. Apparently it's common to play friendlies like that but I just don't see the point. As somebody said, they should've just play their youth team perhaps.

To gain fitness?

must be a real runout being 22-0 up

 

[B20]

Embarrassing for them really. Pick on someone your own size, cnuts.

 

[TommiHelm]

This is how I do pre-seasons in football manager to get everyone to 100% fitness and morale. Judging by how well it works there, we better watch out for Everton this season.

Would they even have brought the youth team with them to Austria?

Would've made sense to have your B team at least, I guess. Team spirit and all that.

 

[ChaddyP]

I guess it's still running no matter the score ?

So is running in a park. This feels like running in a park full of the elderly kicking the shit out of them and mocking them on each lapse.

My guy, I was just answering why they bothered to finish the match.

Yeah sorry if it sounded personal, just wanted to crack a joke here Take no offence if you will.

[FootyGirl88]

From the Everton Forum..tough crowd..

Said it when he was at Hull, Watford and when he joined EV.

He's garbage - Wolves have a lesser team and have taken points off the Manchester clubs.

The squad is gash but this fella isn't going to take us places you can see it already.

6 PL games without clean sheets at Everton. In the last 17 PL games without a clean with Everton and Watford. When will we get the first clean sheet?

1 win in 6 is not a good start however you look at it. Defence is still awful and we can't finish. Everton that.

 

[K2K]

Plenty saw this coming from a mile away.

 

[FootballHQ]

I still think he's a decent manager.

Everton just sign good players , not great ones. Walcott, years at Arsenal threatening to be great but never becoming that so don't see why he's a player who should fire them into the top 4.

Richarlison can be a great player but still inconsistant.

Schnderlein...well we saw his struggles at Man. United and he's a player I liked a lot at Southampton.

His sides always seem to pick up stupid red cards at times, first day at Wolves they were 1-0 up and comfortable and then Jagielka miscontrols the ball. At Bournemouth they were 2-0 up I think and Richarlison does a stupid headbutt so potentially 4 points lost there.

Everton also struggle from mentality of never beating Liverpool and so feeling in their shadow constantly.

 

[Mcking]

What's he know? What's he know? Says Paul Merson.

 

[Mcking]

He can't organize a defence, says me.

 

[FootballHQ]

What they put out today is far from their first choice defence in fairness, need experience of Coleman back and Mina also in.

Bit like when Man. United put in Darmian and Lindelof and everyone on the main forum wonders why it's near impossible to keep a clean sheet even with De Gea in goal....

Not just today though. Teams have kept clean sheets and defended really well with far worse defenders. Mina is yet to play a game for them, so he does not count too.

 

[Ether]

Everton's recruitment has been odd, signing Sigurdsson/Klassen/Rooney seems like much of a muchness. Sandro/Onyekuru a bit pointless, whereas Tosun hasn't really made an impact and you wonder whether they would've been better off just giving Lookman a chance in attack.

Tough job after the mess Koeman left behind.

 

[TheFlagStaysDown]

just a shittier roberto martinez

I agree, Watford keep 3 clean sheets from their first 4 games last season. Wonder who their manager was....

His Hull team also got a 0-0 at Old Trafford.

C'mon man, we all know a good defence is not all about keeping a clean sheet and such a small sample size doesn't cut it. What happened in the rest of their games before he was sacked?

 

[VP89]

He does remind me of Roberto Martinez

I had higher hopes for him but he probably needs more time before we judge. He bought so many new players for Everton itl take a while for them to bed him and then him to understand the squad on top.
