Going to clubs like City and Chelsea for CL makes sense because they are almost certain to be in the competition every year and have the resources to advance deep into the competition.
Newcastle only qualified because both Villa and Forest...

It certainly has been a strange season for sure, the three relegated clubs basically collapsed after January but you could not be anywhere near certain that was going to happen when we changed manager. At that time our form was probably the...
I am not certain we would have escaped under SD.
The season was getting worse rather than better, the players looked like they did not a have a clue what they were supposed to do and you got the feeling they expected to get beaten every game...
I will say he's a left-sided player who was shoe-horned into the right side position. Worked hard, reliable player. Cost nothing but wages when we were broke, glad he's moving on.

He would play most weeks, learn to improve his game and in time if Everton can't match his ambitions he would still be young enough to move to a club who could...
When DM was manager in the past his transfer budget was nearly always tiny, very often depending on sales to allow for purchases.
It isn't that he will have unlimited funds now but we should have more access to money with the new stadium and new...
I don't want this Bug anywhere near this great institution.
He's absolutely everything that's wrong with modern day football....The first interview he gave last night after their defeat all he proceeded to do was to talk about himself.
