Lanolin's latest activity

Tbh we have a fanbase that find it very difficult to be too critical of the club and I think we are already seeing the narrative shift from ‘this team is crap and needs a massive overhaul’ to ‘we actually only need 3 or 4 squad fillers’.

When assessing a player, aside from what my eyes tell me, I automatically ask myself one question: Is it possible that all the managers and coaches he's had have been wrong, and Ryan off the internet is right? It's never let me down yet.

100% mate, I'm interested to see what happens, there were players on that list who would boost the team tenfold.

A lad in work has a Man United one and the QR code has a red line that moves around the edge of the QR code, so it wont scan if its a screen shot, thought we would have done something similar.

You don't think we're going to make another 4 signings before the end of the window? You should be hugely concerned if that's the case, we'd have to be extremely lucky with injuries and suspensions to get through the season with that squad.

I suppose the proof will be in the pudding in that sense. If we sign a load of players from left field that will back up what you're saying, if we see any of the names who've been bandied about all summer come in then we can safely there have...

Everton are at least two fullbacks, one midfielder and a right winger away from standing a chance of getting through a PL season without the same relegation anxiety that’s plagued us for the last four seasons. We’re four weeks out so I’m not...

If it was just a QR code they might aswell give you physical cards, because you'd be able to just screenshot the ticket and forward it on.

The season we survived relegation vs Crystal Palace, predominantly because we couldn't score goals and then started the following season without a striker - lumping balls up to Gordon upfront to compete with Koulibaly in the air. Evertoned.

I really don't think these things happened. As far as i'm aware we just triggered the option in the Alcaraz deal, for the set amount already agreed in January. Barry had a release clause but there's been nothing whatsoever to suggest Villarreal...

I think that's a bit simplistic. I don't know, but I have a sneaky feeling that this time last year you weren't saying 'Lindstrom is the worst signing it's possible to make, there is literally nobody worse than him in world football', which would...

People just making out like waiting til late in the window will definitely mean we end up with better quality signings than if we moved earlier is absolutely wild. Some of you have evidently never Evertoned before.

The fact players like Harrison and Lindstrom struggled so much shows how difficult it is to play in the premier league. Saying we are stronger because they're both gone and we have two random youngsters is idiotic. They both need replacing...

Yeah the old 'can't be any worse' argument always falls down here, because people are only basing it on the most basic of metrics and not taking anything more than that into account.

They did. They weren't great players but they were physically capable of playing in the premier league and knew the basics of what positions to be in, touch, where not to lose the ball, tracking back etc. The young lads would be headless...
