    Next clean sheet?

    We've had one clean sheet (West Brom) so far this season. When do we think our next will be? I've included all the fixtures until December (since I know this forum is known for it's optimism). So, what do you think?

    Rooting against moyes

    I was a huge fan of moyes while he was here. I was slow to turn on him after he left. I love where we are with Roberto, so instead of wishing hate against moyes, I just cut ties with him this year. Neutral. Until now... After the arsenal game it dawned on me that moyes has the potential to...

    Captain while Jags is out

    Jags is out the next few weeks. Today Osman got the armband, but given a full strength squad, Osman likely won't even be on the pitch. So who should have it?

    ESPN article on Landon Donovan

    Roger Bennett (ESPN writer who is also an Evertonian) caught up with Landon today and just posted this article. Couldn't find the "Sir Landon of Donovan" thread, but figured it was likely locked at this point (rightly so). http://espnfc.com/blog/_/name/relegationzone/id/815?cc=5901...

    Prem's Best XI (from ESPN) - (Baines)

    Guessing you guys may not all be able to see the link, but I've copied the Everton mentions below. Begovic Zabaleta Bassong Vertonghen Baines Yaya Toure Michu Cazorla Suarez Rooney van Persie (Laudrup) from the article: There was also a "second XI" where Howard was named GK and Fellaini was...

    Ambition now or sell on value?

    There are plenty of rodwell threads, while this is related, I wanted to give this it's own thread as I tHink it is a separate discussion. During the season, the fans complain about not having ambition, no trophy, NSNO, etc. When we sell, many complain about us being a "selling club" even...

    Chevy in the UK

    A coworker of mine just told me that Chevrolet just signed on to be ManU's new kit sponsor. How extensive the brand was over there? Is Chevy a popular brand in the UK? Just seems like a strange mismatch to me (and an expensive one for taxpaying americans who still own most of the company...

    Cahill's red against Newcastle

    So there seems to be lots of confusion on tis and I thought it deserved a thread instead of having to wade through the game thread. I didn't see the moment where cabaye "attacked" our ballboy, but apparently the common thought right now is that Timmy was sticking up for that incident. I...

    Starting 11 in 2015?

    The Rooney thread got me thinking, what would our team look like then? By then, I expect we will at least have more investment, but likely won't be citeh style spenders, so I figured I'd make my assumpltions that money to resign players will be available. So, with that being said, what would...

    Is Felliani improving?

    I really really like Felliani. He has bossed many games for us since he joined us. My concern is that he seems to have only improved one part of his game since he joined - he's always been excellent about breaking up plays, but he is no longer is the yellow card magnet he was. But when it...

    New source of revenue?

    Who would be interested in Something like this that Sevilla is doing? Not going to fund a big transfer, but its additional revenue and gets fans involved. Probably cause a huge spike in kit sales too cause you couldn't find yourself unless you owned a copy. yhoo.it/sU02zD

    Potential and our transitioning squad

    I love our current crop of blues, but the sale of Arteta forced me to recognize/embrace the reality that the squad will always change and we have places where we need to get younger. In 2-3 years, I expect Cahill, Neville, Osman, Distin, Saha, McFadden, Bily, Anichibe, Heitinga, and Hibbert...

    Under 21s

    Man. Watching the under 21s v Israel right now and it is awesome to see an everton midfield of Barkley and rodwell. Add to that gosling/judas on the right, and the team has a real everton pedigree. So Moyes and co, keep up the good work with the youth squads and scouting and things will look...

    HYPOTHETICAL: Balotelli

    HYPOTHETICAL scenario I've had running in my mind, not even a rumor - I can't be clear enough on this... But ever since I saw Aguero yesterday, striking a good partnership with Dzeko and hearing that Tevez seems likely to stay, it seems likely that some combination of those 3 are first...

    American players and Everton/EPL readiness

    A good "side" discussion about American players and Everton got started in the Tim Ream thread (http://www.grandoldteam.com/forum/threads/36356-Tim-Ream). We got the thread back on topic, but I think it was a discussion that warranted it's own thread. Here are a few of the main points...

    End of the Pink Kit

    So does anyone else hope that Wigan match was the last match for that pink kit? I was willing to give it a shot, but it hasn't grown on me. Especially now that we have those lovely vanilla ones or I wouldn't mind seeing us go back to something like the old black with pink pinstripes from last...

    Any word on Felliani's injury?

    Didn't look like much to me, but those are always the injuries that scare me. Was expecting a thread on this but didn't see it so I figured I'd start it. So does anyone know anything?

    Important week - Perfect week to leapfrog the table

    Has any one else noticed how the table is shaking out this week? We sit 13th wiht 30 points and a -1 GD and Bolton are all the way up at 8th on 33 points with a -1 GD. If we beat Bolton, Birmingham beat Stoke (the least likely), Newcastle and Blackburn draw, and Chelsea beat Fulham...

    Time for the youngsters

    Ok, we're skint. We know it. No new players but loans. Seems to me like this is the perfect time to start blooding some of our own young'uns then. Make the most with what we've got... If we don't sign any loan players, then let's start seeing how some of our brighter reserve players are...
