.” If an Academy youngster is sent on loan, I don’t see it as a good sign as far as their future at Everton is concerned, that’s my point.” You’ve said this so many times over the years it becomes pointless having a discussion with you on it , you just keep repeating it again and again and...

Mate every pre-season Eggs dangles the “ loans are bad it means the manager doesn’t like him” bait , there are usually 5 or 6 takers. It becomes a bit like the Romans scene from Life of Brian - “ Oh yeah , but apart from Branthwaite, Gordon , Dobbin , Cannon, Simms etc , what did Loans ever do...

No we need Lampard to be in the Premier League, somewhere like Leicester or Brentford. We could struggle next season if things are still not sorted and we’ll need some teams below us to give us a cushion.

Or maybe someone could write an over sentimental song like “ North Liverpool Forever” , pump it out at BMD and voila!

Well it wasn’t a “briefing “ by Moshiri or anybody it was an article by The Athletic in which he gave his views. Not surprisingly it’s been well shared in various formats.

That’s really the crux of it. He has 45% I think , but only 25% voting rights and they won’t let him buy a controlling interest. So Palace is not really that attractive proposition to buy his share as people believe. He could be stuck with his shares for some time unless he takes a haircut on...

I kind of like that , not in an unkind way , but it takes the spotlight of Lukjanciks and the nonsense that somehow City would pay £10 mill for him when they’ve got two young keepers “ ahead” of him.

Lukjanciks is u17 of course , did someone post that he’s been called into the England u17/Euro squad , not sure if that’s right. ?

And another youngster we’re still pursuing after his recent trial :

That seems pretty standard for getting a youngster from outside to sign for us - a guaranteed 3 year pro contract at 17.

Well he’s only 20 so we shouldn’t expect too much, but all roads lead to Stanley Mills

For some that’s true, but for others a year older is a year better - Chemiti certainly, Beto a bit more used to the PL , Dobbin continuing to progress and maybe the likes of youngsters Stanley Mills and Jenson Metcalfe stepping up to be squad players. I’m going through an optimism spurt.

Well Brentford don’t want him , they’ll likely sell Toney and replace him with Ellis Simms . Everton that.

Definitely. A very rough comparison could be made with Dobbin , game time in League 1 , progress if not spectacular , and an opportunity assuming he’s injury free to make his mark in pre season . Mills has got the ability to step up into the first team squad in the next season or two……but...

Yep , that’s the one , Goodness Eze. I guess we’ll know when the Scholars are announce .

In the recent u18 8-0 victory a 16 year old keeper came on off the bench, Goodness Eze , is this him ?. I’ve not seen his name previously.

Wales left back Thomas was speedy ….but so was I at 16 🙂 It was hard to know what to make of Gardner, played left mid field but mainly walked about, presumably because of the heat , looked more of a “8”in the bits I saw.

Believe that Moshiri will stump up £25 mill for a new right back or believe he won’t and hedge your bets by offering a contract extension to a player who although way past his best can cover three positions . Tough decision 🤔

These matches are usually streamed somewhere - FA Wales Facebook, BBC Sports streaming .
