1. Less said the better really. Lacked creativity going forward and played a style and formation that cried out for width which wasn't there. Clearly playing a counter attacking 4-4-2 with 4 central midfielders didn't work and we failed to change it around when we needed to. Southampton got their slice of luck and deserved it to be fair.
2. Judging by Saturday a lack of a plan B is a real concern at the moment. I expect with the arrivals of Anelka and Vydra that we will be ok in the striker department, especially if Rosenberg continues to show signs of improvement. Our problem is in our wide areas, which will hopefully be addressed with the (eventual!) arrival of Sinclair.
3. Last season it seemed as if we hit teams on the break with a lot more venom than we did under Hodgson and were a lot less afraid to throw bodies forward. Really enjoyed watching us last season, particularly the first few months when we were really flying.
4. Main concern is not getting the players we clearly need before the transfer window shuts.
5. James Morrison has been superb for me the past couple of years. Feel that Anelka is going to make a big contribution this season.
6. I actually really quite like Everton. Decent club with decent fans and a bigger club than some people realise.
7. Good manager who employs a style of play in his teams that people enjoy watching, will be interested to see if he can make the step up to managing a bigger club. He will be loved at Everton if he can repeat last years feat and bring you a trophy.
8. Honestly, I think it could probably do with a lick of paint and more importantly getting those damned supporting pillars removed. Would be a shame if you ever left Goodison though as do like the 'old school' feel of the place. Especially like walking to the ground through the terraced streets, seeing people popping out their house to go to the match. Like something out of a 1970s comic book.
9. Personally think you will have too much for us and win 2-0 fairly comfortably.
10. As above with Mirallas first goalscorer.
