- Fantastic first half hour where we were the better side. - Very tight for the offside goal, we could’ve had a penalty, Beto excellent chance with the header (let’s not speak about the 1v1) and could’ve been in front. - McNeil at fault for the goal, hadn’t been too bad prior to that, but...

You could have bought the whole of Everton’s midfield & forward line (6 players), and still had €13m left over for the same price as one of their midfielders.

Costs of the two starting elevens: Raya €32m - Pickford €29m Timber €40m - Garner €10m Calafiori €44m - Mykolenko €24m Saliba €30m - O’Brien €20m Gabriel €26m - Keane €29m Rice €117m - Gueye €4m Zubimendi €70m - Tim €11m Eze €70m - KDH €29m Saka €0 - McNeil €17m Madueke €56m...

Yep, we’re not far away from having a very strong squad. Priority for January has to be a right back then in the summer: 1. Sign or replace Grealish 2. Upgrade Beto 3. Upgrade McNeil 4. Upgrade Mykolenko 5. Sign a decent #10 to compete with Armstrong.

Leeds have just had a bid rejected and report says Wolves value him at £40m. Secondary point here, but interesting that Leeds are looking to sign him when they already have a similarly-profiled player in DCL…

I mentioned this recently too, but I think it’s do with an expectation of how the game will go. For example, Wolves / Brentford at home, we’re expecting them to give up possession and sit in; this is where we struggle and where need a Plan B. This could even come down to personnel selection...

January Window: 1. Right Back Summer Window: 1. Sign Grealish or his replacement 2. Upgrade Beto 3. Upgrade Mykolenko 4. Sign a quality #10 to compete with HA 5. Upgrade McNeil

Another game which highlights Mykolenko’s strengths; under the cosh, 1v1 defending and not expected to contribute too much going forwards. This is why he’s definitely a player to keep in the squad; but we need a more attack-minded left back for games where we’re expected to win. Hopefully...

• An abject performance which began by barely touching the ball in the opening 10 minutes. Too passive in all phases of the play. • Squad was threadbare missing Keane, Branthwaite, Coleman, Gueye, Iroegbunam, Dewsbury-Hall, Alcaraz, Grealish and Ndiaye. The support cast did their chances no...

Season over on 10th January.

Absolutely incredible

Garner, Mykolenko, Armstrong, O’Brien all very good today. Aznou excellent cameo. Now let’s please win the penalties…

Looked like Myko pulled up holding his leg. Taking no chances being so threadbare. Myko very good today to be fair.

What a soft penalty decision!! Love not having VAR here!

Much better second half. Look at how much better it is having an overlapping right back? Now imagine he was capable of crossing a ball…

Poor first half display. Too passive out of possession; when we’ve actually applied pressure, Sunderland haven’t coped which is even more damning from a tactical standpoint. Abysmal first 10 mins but then we had a good spell before going behind (the head injury stoppage curtailed our...

What was that attempted headed clearance?!
