He obviously has a thing for sportswear from the early 1980s as those shorts are like the ones Brazil wore in 1982.

Quite the choice of shirt when you know a pack of snappers are waiting for you.

Useless.

Oh no. Terrible news. Are many people going for a pre match drink in the pubs up near Goodison?

Thanks to - yet again - the league having 3 awful teams, we are looking ok. When the season arrives that we need 40 points to stay up then we are in trouble.

Blaming this guy really is missing the point. We're playing without a striker, zero for him to hit if he does overlap.

I think that proves my point. Albeit in a strange way.

Our recruitment has been woeful for years. Makes you fear there's something dodgy going on. When was the last time we got a player from overseas who has been a success? Maybe Miko? I'd stick to buying players that have done the business here. Branthwaite has shown what can happen by buying...

DCL is way, way better

Imagine if Simms had this many starts... Half of the fans on here wrote him off after one game at Anfield when we barely crossed the half way line.

Looks like a 12 year old playing in an under 18s game. Awful touch, zero awareness, no strength and no football knowledge.

If he played for Newport County, he would not stand out. He's probably conference level.

Exactly. Well said. People are writing him off as well. I went to the Brazil v Senegal game the other week at the Emirates and he played really well. It was bloody firey for a friendly and he was getting properly stuck in. Despite Senegal losing, I thought he was one of their best players.

We wore all blue tonight (shorts and socks too). I love how that looks. Anyone remember the last time we went with that kit selection?

Today's game makes me remember a letter in The Viz that went something like this... "Football commentators always say 'it's hard to play against 10 men' so why don't teams start with 10 - or even 9?"
