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?"

I really don't think he'd stand out if he was playing in League One (old third division). No way would scouts be saying 'sign this lad'.

In his defence, we could have had Mbappe up front in the second half and he wouldn't have done anything with the balls flying over his head. Trouble is we all know what would happen if the ball went into his feet.

Play Tarkowski up front

The frustrating thing is that if we are going to pump long balls to the number 9 then the two wingers have got to get up close to the striker to give us a chance of getting the second balls or flick ons. We're smashing it to the striker who is marked by 3 defenders.

Absolutely nothing to choose between this lad, Beto, Simms and Cannon. None of them are good enough.
