I think we already enough Longstaff quality players , solid, dependable but unexceptional. We need to be recruiting a level above that if we want to progress.

I’m sceptical about any links to Dibling , Southampton have placed a ‘keep off ‘ price tag on him . He is very talented but also very young ( 19 ? ). I doubt he is moving this window .

I get what you’re saying but if we finish 6th and win a cup it suggests we have progressed as a team and can look forward to more success in the future . Whereas if we win a cup but finish 14th it suggests we have got lucky in a knockout competition and not progressed as a team implying that the...

I don’t blame the players , I blame the game , the administrators past and present who have eroded its standards for the sake of their own personal greed and prestige . Who sold out to the television companies. Who lacked any moral stature to oppose the erosion of the game to a simple pursuit of...

I loved football back then . Best days of my life. Every aspect of it was superior. It was our game then . We were supporters , now we’re consumers. And the crowds may have been smaller but the atmosphere and noise generated dwarfs today’s efforts .

Over the years I have found myself attending more Bundesliga matches , especially since Union Berlin and St Pauli gained promotion . While it has its own pressures and problems it is still striving to keep attending matches affordable for everyone. So , yes , a better model and increasingly a...

I’d rather ticket prices were affordable , and the majority of the money was returned to game , supporting grass roots clubs for instance . Football was once the working man’s game , now attending matches is increasingly a middle class pursuit . Players wages drive prices upwards along with...

If all the professional footballers vanished overnight , the world would survive . They are part of the leisure and entertainment industry. The world would survive and prosper without them .

The problem with football isn’t the agents it’s the obscene wages that footballers earn . For kicking a bag of air around a park ? Its ridiculously distasteful. But it is what it is . The world is insane .

And yet still been Champions of Europe twice .

New owners , new stadium , new administrative structure , old manager , old problems. I find it comfortingly reassuring that in these days of change and uncertainty Everton remain stubbornly unaltered and apparently unalterable. Never change Everton , never change 🤣

If you are committed to developing a player a good amount of playing time is possible during a season , which ultimately benefits the club . Playing someone like Antonio or Vardy will almost certainly only benefit the players retirement fund . It’s a dead end , high cost , low return strategy.

I’d rather we gave Chermiti game time and developed him here than contribute to the pension fund of some over the hill has been . Everton have developed something of a habit of providing a sanctuary for such players to eke out the last days of their playing career during the last 30 years . It...

Interesting. So , considering the general consensus is that we are at least five players short of a squad your contention is that every player we have selected to fill those positions is either reluctant to join or touring Japan . We are either highly unlucky, a little too selective in our...

We are leaving Liverpool ?……. 🤔……….., We are leaving England ??

Are you trying to say we have set our heart on a couple of palatial mansions we can’t afford and we will have to make do with a couple of run down bungalows and a garden shed in need of repair ?

Surely our scouting yields more than one player for every position we want fill ? Very poor system if this not the case .

I am unconvinced that this particular fellow brings anything to the team that can’t be sourced less expensively from better leagues. I don’t think there are any currently reliable links anyway.

Surely we are still a few weeks off the Fellows level of the proverbial barrel ?

It’s impressive , the owners have backed the manager and shown they are determined to do everything they can to improve the team . Like I say , the management in this case clearly had an achievable and discernible plan. It would be nice to see evidence of similar resolve and planning on the...
