Lots of chatter that the Branthwaite injury cost us Europe. Rubbish, DM refusal to play OB at CB post injury cost us more.

If @Everton want to be taken seriously and really show ambition then we start with round pegs for round holes. #EFC

Its not on OB, far from it. #NSNO

[AndyB @andyb3303]

One of the most sensible @Everton pieces i have read.

[Mark Thomas @dixiedeansboots]

The interviews both last week and yesterday sum David Moyes up. He’s done well to steady the ship, but let’s be honest the ship was only sinking because Dyche had thrown in the towel. We finish the season behind Brentford, Bournemouth, Sunderland and Fulham only 5 points above Forest. In terms of ability, no one will convince me that some of our players are indeed footballers. But most of the players are good enough to compete and take us above those teams. In terms of a culture, things need change. The business is (now) thriving, the stadium is world class. This season I’ve been to more games than I have for a long time. Every home game and most away, missing just a handful. I won’t have it that we’re not ready yet and that we should stay in our lane. With that attitude and never believing in investing in younger players, we never will be. And that’s Moyes all over. It was like this first time around - set up not to lose, use your stalwarts - the same now. The club is in a much healthier place now than it was back then. We don’t need safe and we don’t need stability; we need progress, we need creativity and we need innovation. We’ve seen none of that. It’ll be another 30 years before silverware if we stick with this philosophy. Little old Everton perpetually underperforming, staying in lane and suffering imposter syndrome when the ‘big teams’ turn up to play us….. here’s the thing, there’s not a single team I’ve seen us play this season who we couldn’t have beaten. Not one. The business model is sound but the football mentality is rotten - and that needs to change.
Roma securing champions league while Everton are ‘knowing our place’ and letting the big boys walk all over us, because that’s the philosophy that’s now acceptable.
NSNO…. I don’t think so.
Time for a real change.
Have a nice summer all, enjoy the World Cup 👍💙

@ToffeeWeb Unacceptable

[AndyB @andyb3303]

Feel really sorry for the WHU fans. That @Everton performance was truly embarrassing. Haven't laid a glove on Spurs.

Really poor end to a unacceptable season for #EFC

Moyes needs to own it, 3 pts from 21 is awful. With the investment he had last summer he needs to do better.

[AndyB @andyb3303]

No changes after that 1st half for @Everton

Everyone apart from the manager would make at least 3 after that 45....

[AndyB @andyb3303]

Well that was coming. @Everton been really poor for weeks. Manager not making any changes when players are out of form has really cost us.

When you've no chance of a clean sheet then you must gamble on a bit of creativity.

#EFC

[AndyB @andyb3303]

@dixiedeansboots Ah mate that brought a tear to my eye. Some of the best memories at the old lady 💙

[AndyB @andyb3303]

@EvertonHel They've absolutely got better players than us - the table doesn't lie.

We've no right to be finishing top 6/8 weve been poor for 12 yrs. We are where we are because thats the standard. That's not on Moyes or the current owners, thats on 2 decades of decline . #NSNO

[AndyB @andyb3303]

Looking at the positives,

- was going for a few pints, now I'll have a few more to forget that.

- dont need to tell the Mrs I've spent the summer holiday money on flights to watch Everton abroad 👀😃

[AndyB @andyb3303]

@Paddock_View Mate and weve had some really poor back 4s 😃

[AndyB @andyb3303]

@stekellyefc Don't disagree Ste however the last 2 months have been terrible and weve been poor at home all season. You can understand people frustrations at the club rather than their strong feelings for the man.

[AndyB @andyb3303]

Lots of comments about Keane on here. Hes certainly been no worse than any of today's back 4 throughout the season.

Not many decent performances today - Suppose everyone needs a scapegoat. #EFC

[AndyB @andyb3303]

Strong use of the bench fm Sunderland manager - fair play, hes gone for it and its paid off. #EFC

[AndyB @andyb3303]

Much respect to Coleman. Proper @Everton player, talented footballer and immense human being.

Best wishes and thank you. A rare light in a period of darkness. #EFC #23

[AndyB @andyb3303]

Confirmation of what we already knew, poor last 6 weeks of season for @Everton

Hard to take as more often than not its the self-imposed errors that cost us. Insistence on playing Tarks and Keano together has cost us, both do better with either OB or JB beside them #EFC

[AndyB @andyb3303]

Terrible defending that. Same stuff each week. Individual errors across the back 4 have cost us all season. #EFC

Should have gone 2 up, lose concentration get punished.

[AndyB @andyb3303]

@Daviddo59634309 Made me laugh much more than it should have !!

[AndyB @andyb3303]

Proper leader, gentleman and Capt. Loyal with integrity, we continually asked too much of him - he always gave his all, then some. 💙

[Everton @Everton]

Seamus Coleman – one of our greatest-ever servants and captains – has announced his proud Everton playing career spanning more than 17 years will come to an end when his contract expires next month.

Thank you for everything, Seamus. 💙

[The 1878s @The1878s]

On Sunday during our last home game of the season we are asking everyone attending the game to stand up on the 60th minute and sing Seamus Coleman’s song.

A boss captain, a boss Evertonian and a boss person 💙👏🏼

Enjoy your retirement Seamus 👍🏼
