Messymascot's faith in humanity and ginger safe haven

[Armaghtoffee]

We would all take mid table AT but even that is in danger if he doesn't buck up.

As @jazzy said above, we have the makings of a good team with a couple of clear problem areas. The answers may seem obvious to people on here but we don’t have the luxury of seeing performance in training. As it stand though, we have players playing out of position to plug gaps, or players just not good enough, and that is starting to hurt us.

Need to see more of Alcaraz; Dibling and Rohl now rather than just shoehorn them into the team come AFCON. Moyes may not be overly keen on them but needs must regardless.

Well I get a newspaper every day so that means I must be in a shop. However, if I can limit it to nothing else bar bread and milk then I will be delighted. It’s nice to get the delivery boxed off though as I can’t be doing with grumpy people in Supermarkets at the busiest time of the year.

That will be me,

On that point is the price of petrol in the UK at pre covid prices ? It is here and I am a bit puzzled as to why . We also shop early Monday to avoid the throngs .

I agree we don't have that priviledge but is that the answer ? If they are good in training and then don't perform in games then where do we go from here ?

No idea what the price was in 2020

Sell those players and buy new ones as was ever the way.

We both know that is impractical besides that would give Moyes the opportunity to buy more misfits .

 

[blueloon]

Oh my, that second half . I think he is single handedly trying to remove any ounce of confidence from Barry. I think his man management skills are non existent for those who he feels don’t perform. Poor Barry’s face, and did Beto do any better? Not for me.

It was Rohl’s face that said it all for me, the camera caught him reaching back and chucking a shirt forward to one of the subs coming on , McNeil maybe. He had such a pissed off look on his face . Said it all about what he thinks of his situation.

Is it though? If the players can’t be developed to the required standard through training then they have to be moved on and replaced.

I meant financially it is not viable ,well that is unless they are mothballing Jarrod and getting a fantastic price for Illi in January because that would certainly fund a few fair priced players .

Just a couple of sensible signings is all we need now, Right back and Striker being the obvious. They don’t need to be superstars, just upgrades on what we have now and we’ll be fine.

Next season O’Brien will be a very experienced player moving to Centreback and Harrison Armstrong will be fighting for a spot as well. We could be in a worse position is what I am saying.

Or the manager will be replaced.

I think TFG will give him until the end of the season and if he still has £80 million worth of talent on the bench it will be adios Davy

Wouldn't surprise me if we never see JB in an Everton shirt again.
I don't think it will happen if only because you won't get too dollar for a player who hasn't played all season.
