    Bit of that mate, though im pretty sure we don't sign lids based of macro numbers (not suggesting you were saying that), Las Palmes were relegated, Villareal finished 5th so i guess there might be an argument in terms of what each influenced...

    Definitely! Concerningly it was in La Liga aswell, which does maybe put Barry's numbers into a bit of context.

    More surprising is he scored 10 goals.

    Jesus is Fabio Silva still under 23?! Feels like he's been knocking about for a decade.

    Considering they were a RBS decision from going under forever a few years ago,you’d think that Wouid teach them some humility ,but no they used that reprieve to try create a super league with there so called rivals Man Utd,utterly wretched club/...

    I think possibly the best solution would be something similar to GCSE/A-Levels. At lower age groups you don't stick to one particular style/philosophy/formation, but learn/train a variety of them. Then in u21s you can focus a bit more. Not...

    Its counterproductive to set the whole of the youth team playing exactly the way the first team is. 1) Doesent make sence for a 16 year old playing in a style or system that a manager wants whos unlikely to be there in the 5 years hes ready for...

    Some do, but it's often just a buzzword to make the staff sound better in the press and doesn't marry up with reality. If you were to make every youth side play in generic colours you might identify like 3 that definitely look like their...

    Your first line is the big hitter there and it’s such a massive thing. They genuinely just have no idea what it’s like to support team like us, they’re so far removed from it that they seriously think seeing them finishing 6th is supporting them...

    That’s a totally different question though. Should we sign someone crap? No, obviously not. Should we not sign someone good just because it means giving money to a side we don’t like (even if they’d get it from somewhere else anyway?) again...
  • Lanolin
    Yeah I did, god imagine signing a teams rejects, how awful. I hear sporting fans absolutely despise gyokeres because Brighton didn’t rate him.
  • Lanolin
    If players improve us then worrying about what the selling team might do with the money is properly shameful to be honest. Especially someone like Newcastle. People talk about Kenwright ruining Everton but stuff like this just makes me think it’s...

    If he was on a free and people were turning their nose up at him I would have to laugh at their embarrassing lack of understanding of where we are as a club. For £12m he’d be a decent signing, on a free it should be something we were absolutely...

    I just wish we’d redeveloped Goodison but not changed it at all so everything was exactly the same but obviously not the same because it was twice the size and with ten times the corporate offering but literally exactly the same with no changes...

    Is that Peter Siddle?
