He lost five key players last summer and in January for over quarter a billion in fees and still manages to have Bournemouth close to a European place. I think that is remarkable.

I remember when we got a 'real' winner in to enforce high standards in the dressing room and be a leader within the squad. He had plenty of experience winning trophies, and was actually a bit younger than Coleman so surely would be around for...

“The culture was not as bad as it might have been viewed externally,” Moyes explains. “There were players here who fit the Everton DNA. Seamus was driving that. I could give you numerous examples of Seamus really getting into the boys on the...

Committing all those players to attack coincided with us (starting from the first manager post Moyes who you idolise) in us becoming a regular bottom half and relegation scrapping club. Weird if that’s what you are yearning for. Also, just for...

…..I’m a huge fan, what an ambassador and servant for our club. If he wants to stay, I’m not in the least bothered whether he continues on a playing contract or something else.

Personally I don't really understand why so many are completely writing off Röhl. Barely played and has looked mostly decent to me when he has, seems to be fairly versatile as well. And despite not having played much recently was talked up a lot...

Van Dyke.

I think this season will always have been regarded as a learning curve for Aznou , Barry and Dibling. We have probably been forced to use them more than the manager would like due to the size of the squad. The fees , even though big by Everton...

….he’ll most likely look at O’Brien, Garner, Iroegbunam and Armstrong and see how those youngsters have been developed into PL regulars. The fans who seem paranoid about playing Dibling and Aznou will be the ones complaining about Moyes when...

Beto is an extremely likeable person and seems very popular with players and fans alike but I still think he will leave this summer. His recent performances and goals will have helped restore his value but we need a more reliable striker. Barry...

I think European qualification will be difficult for us. I think our last seven games are difficult. But, even if we don't quite make the cut this year I think players will be easier to attract this summer. We are now a club chasing Europe...

I remember that, on Richarlison? I was fuming. Now I love to see it :lol:

Not as many as he probably should have. I remember when he nearly cut an Everton player in two and we all wanted him jailed. Arguably one of our best signings given the part he has played in keeping us in the Premiership.

Only time will tell if last year's buys were good value - KDH looks the only one right now. But it does look like getting rid of Thelwell was hasty. I know Maupay was a total dud but Ndiaye, Garner, O'Brien, McNeil, Tarkowski, IGG for £60m is...
