….lot of angst on their forum. Could be a hot atmosphere for the Man City game if on Sky;

….unless Dyche has something totally different in mind, it looks like Chermiti for the next two games. I know a few on here say he’ll be a starter next season, let’s see if he can demonstrate that. I suppose Danjuma or Dobbin (if fit) are options.

….i think DCL is playing in 3rd gear, it happens subconsciously with footballers protecting big muscle injuries. It happened with James McCarthy. Top form before serious hamstring tear and when he came back he was poor. Then he let the handbrake off in a couple of games (Arsenal, Liverpool)...

….ha, ha, on the contrary but we’ve beaten them once so we shouldn’t be passing this opportunity up. They remind me of the old crazy Wimbledon team in terms of attitude but if we can live with their intimidation we can see them off. Big, big game.

…..Brentford at home is a big opportunity to put this situation to bed. I know they humiliated Luton with shackles off but we won at their place (I think) and we shouldn’t dismiss that game as a lost cause.

….is Barkley’s contract up this summer? If so, I’d imagine he’d be in demand. I’d never thought I’d say it as I’ve never been a fan (even when he was a youth player) but he looks terrific this season.

…makes sense, add Harrison to that list but then the issue is replacing them. My understanding is we need to clear off a significant deficiency (£90m) in our books by end of June so we can’t afford to bring any players in by then but need to generate significant sales as soon as the window...

….agree. I’m sure Dyche would prefer access to better quality footballers who are comfortable in possession and conventional wide players who offer genuine attacking threat.

….they are dynamite in the top third, especially with Jota back. If Pickford has a worldy and we ride our luck I can see us needing to score 2 goals to have a chance of getting anything. DCL won’t play, Beto can’t play so I expect Chermiti to start. I can’t see us getting anything.

….if he stays he’s in the driving seat in negotiations. He can leave on a lucrative Bosman in a matter of weeks, so his demands on staying will likely include a 6 figure signing fee and at least 2 years on his current salary. He has to be moved on but we have to acquire footballers who can...

…yep, I really like his attitude and application. He knows he’s in demand and will leave but he’s dedicated to our cause. Footy matters to him.

….i’m old and quite a few years ago declared John Stones the best CB I’ve seen during my time watching Everton but I’m not so sure now.

…it’s ego, his comments are hidden references to him being superior than current crop. When he was at the club, I took in an Everton v Blackburn Lancashire League game at Bellefield with my son who was about 7 at the time. Hinchcliffe was watching from the touchline nearest the dressing and a...

….not out of the woods but looking safer this morning. As I posted a few weeks ago, I’m sure 34 points will get us over the line;
