Everton v Spurs. 13th August at 1500.

We haven't even tried to yet people continue to claim there's 100m and we aren't sell to buy. We don't even have a recognized backup right back or half decent backup striker (we have to play a winger there) or first choice goal keeper.

But we're loaded. Sure we are. Maybe the reason we haven't signed a backup right back was perhaps Martinez's 11th place finish has put players off.

There's that £100m claim again, no one, I repeat, no one from within the club has EVER said we had £100m to spend. It was a figure plucked from thin air by the media that the bedwetters have used as a fact

Bolasie on the bench today apparently. Hope there's no splinters!

 

[Ashtonian]

Bit of positivity eh?

Hopefully Davies is being considered as a sub who can come on and make a difference. Hopefully no kone and if the midfield is mobile enough they could find it very hard to beat us.

 

[Khalekan]

I could see Mirallas leading the line rather than Del.

Kev has played the lone central striker role before.

 

[DownOnTheUpside]

we should be playing davies instead of McCarthy

also is there any chance that ross is actually the one upfront? it can't have escaped koemans notice that he's shocking on the wing

One positive to me is the inclusion of Kev!

 

[orchard]

Come on Everton, let's hit them so hard in the culo at the off they spend the rest of the game wanting their mar's soft embrace.

2-1 Everton

Bedwetters? It's the first day of the season. We are about to sell our only decent striker, we are playing with a winger as CF, a kid who plays CB at RB, a GK who couldn't get into the Southampton side and still McCarthy and Barry.

At what point do you just accept that they were right and you were wrong.

 

[LinekersLegs]

Oh god that doesn't just look like a knock. How long is he out for?

Ronald Koeman being quoted on Twitter as saying Seamus Coleman will be out for "several weeks."

 

[kenada_blue]

Gibson new contract.

Not on the bench.

Injured?

I thought he was doubt for Spurs. I was wondering who would get a serious injury before the season started.

 

[The Mighty Quint]

Honestly cannot believe that we haven't signed a back-up striker this window. Absolutely shocking.

Be prepared for offside ever time he moves forwards in the no 9 role then - no it will be Del alls we have to do is stop their wing backs simples! C o y b!

It will be fluid.

thats not true at all, is it. "respected" ITK's said that £100m was just a round number. It was stated, by MULTIPLE of these ITK peoples that 'we could buy Messi if we wanted to'.
