    Hmm, favourite three? Lineker, Beardsley, and Cahill - because they were among the most effective we ever made. Most exciting transfers? I was thrilled we bought Kanchelskis and James Rodriguez. I was in my late 40s when we signed the sexy...

    But he offers zero going forwards so why on earth would we even stick him on the pitch. Complete waste of a wage.

    Evertonians seem obsessed with defenders who are good going forward and forwards who are good defending. My God, what I'd give for defenders who defend well and forwards who are known for their attacking excellence. We seem to want Jacks of all...

    Ah we’re back to picking forwards based on how good they are at doubling up as a defensive full back.

    Is it just me who sees this thread's title as "Douglas Lolz"?

    And that's without accounting for our most significant move of the summer: the retention of Jarrad Branthwaite. Heck, I'm mad for us to spend big wonga on top players - but I'm reasonably happy with where we are at the moment. There's lots to...

    Indeed. Each to their own.

    Well, this is it. What does it provide that justifies a subscription? Honestly, nothing to me, anyway. I'm old-school (and old, 53). Brian Glanville is my idea of a football journalist. I did a stint at Goal.com in the noughties looking after...

    I gave up on him years ago. The Athletic promises a lot, but it delivers very little in the way of genuine insight.

    Great view of the Liver Building out the window, too.

    I think your reservations are valid. One can love women's football and still prefer the men's game. Top-level women's international football is interesting. But there is no depth beyond a handful of countries - which is what you would expect in...

    There are just too many ways to watch it these days to hold an interest. When I was really into football in my early 20's. It was BBC for FA Cup, ITV for Champions league and Sky Sports for premier league which I watched regularly down the pub or...

    Drico replied to the thread How much football do you watch?.
    I'm with you on that. Pretty much my modus operandi. That said, I am also a bit of a football history nerd, so spend a lot of time collecting classic matches from the past (World Cups, Euros) that are AI upscaled and sticking them on usb sticks...
