As in 2. Hardly a “succession”. Before that we had 4 who did very good jobs

Ralph. He said he knew he was injured but “didn’t know how tough it was” (I presume English not being his first language, he meant he didn’t know the extent of it, or it was worse than he thought). If that’s the case, it’s pretty poor from both players and management, but sums the club up.

He also admitted that he knew he was injured “that’s why we couldn’t play out from the back second half”. It beggars belief that the bench just sat there without trying to ascertain the severity of it. Lack of professionalism & communication all round.

Gives you a convenient excuse when we lose though.

You’re all over the place mate. Stop digging.

One word, Jose. He played in a structure suited to his game and was given clear instructions, which he followed religiously. He’s a good pro, and Jose still works well with players like him.

You’ve already said we’ve got a better squad than Villa. I presume you’ll accept we’ve got a better squad than Norwich, and if you’re being generous to them, on a par with Burnley, Watford & Brentford. Yet you continue with the ridiculous notion that finishing 4th, 5th or 6th from bottom would be an achievement. Hell, you’d even try to spin relegation as nothing to do with Ralph.

He’s great at pointing where the ball should go, and exceptional at waving his arms around.

Why? That’s fucking obvious isn’t it? He’s an upgrade on Mark fucking Hughes, wow, let’s get him on a 10 year contract as we clearly won’t get anyone better. Hes an average manager, managing an average group of players. He’s done a better job than than the previous 2 managers, but a worse one than the 3 that preceded him. There aren’t too many other supporters, if any, who would want him at their Premier league club.

Twar did.

It is like a cult with certain posters, the religion of Ralph. When the messiah admits he made a tactical error at Liverpool, they argue he didn’t. If that’s not cult like, it’s pretty damn close.

If I was you, I’d see where we finish this season before bowing down to Ralph again.

And foreign “clearing stations” won’t do that unless you ship people arriving in the uk to them. You also need foreign countries to agree to them. It’s simplistic pony to think they’re the solution.

He isn’t, but he said it could be easily sorted out.

Instead of throwing insults around, try and answer the fundamental questions regarding the Soggy/Farage foreign “clearing stations”. Firstly, where will they be. Who on earth would want thousands upon thousands in their country. It could be just as dangerous getting to the clearing station as it is getting across the Chanel. Secondly. You seem to think every asylum seeker turns up with passport & 2 utility bills to prove their address in wartornville. Your plan that people who arrive in the UK can stay in the UK means that for undocumented people, people that feel their claims maybe rejected, and economic migrants, will still attempt the crossing. It will not stop people dying. At least Farages plan, that upon arrival in the uk you’re shipped to a foreign clearing station, will stop the crossings. The risk/reward isn’t worth it, at best you’re taken abroad to a clearing station, at worst you drown. Under your ridiculous plan, you get to stay in the uk or drown, exactly the same as now. Your plan is simplistic pony that won’t stop people dying.

Drinking that piss water, he’d probably drown before he got shit faced

Yeah, he’s doing a great job. Keeping the 12th most expensive squad in Europe 5 points above the relegation zone is impressive.

Which is exactly what I wrote. You are “impressed” (your words) with the job Rafa is doing. So people like you want Rafa to stay, including the decision makers at the club. Therefore writing “people like you” is entirely in context.

You’re impressed with the job he’s doing & so are the people running Everton. I don’t really understand the point you’re trying to make. What’s taken out of context?

Luckily Everton are run by people like you, and they’re impressed with the job he’s doing.

Stay classy

Young players have dips in form. They suffer from mental fatigue more than physical because the concentration levels required are so much higher than they’re used to. They also get found out a bit, opposition will watch video after video and target their weaknesses. It’s a delicate balancing act to manager them, they have to learn from their mistakes, learn to manage themselves and iron out their weaknesses, but they also need taking out of the firing kind every now and again. Ralph is in the great position of being able to replace him with one of our better players. Personally, I’d leave him out, it gives him a break, but also gives Ralph the opportunity to give him 10/15 min cameos playing ahead of KWP to see how that could pan out.

Internet football forums play a huge part in helping the fight against this deadly virus. I wasn’t going to have my jabs until Turkish & Fry posted about them on Saintsweb.

As if we’re going to listen to the opinion of a bloke who is “impressed” by the job Rafa’s doing at Everton. #clueless
