The Everton Forum • Re: Have the players ruined the final season at Goodison?
A lot of the players are probably playing to their best standard, or thereabouts.
Many decisions have lead us to where we are, but I don't really have animosity to many of the current crop because I think the effort is largely there even when the quality is lacking...but for the most part we knew what we were getting when we signed them. You know what you're getting when we're signing Ashley Young for example. We were trying to patch holes in a rapidly sinking ship.
The blame goes more so on those making the previous choices that lead us to having patch up the squad on threadbare resources. I am overall pleased that the current players and Moyes did at least give us a more relaxed last few weeks of the season compared to what it has been of late, but looking forward to moving on now. I know that's a low bar but that's where I am personally. Things don't turn around overnight.
It's a shame we haven't had a barnstorming run in of form to send off Goodison, but there are plenty of memories of other games that will stay with people years from now.
