I agree that it’s unknown whether he could cope with League One or whatever, but the verdict is already known when it comes to Patterson and the Premier League. I don’t think there is a single PL side that would have him as a first choice right back. He is not PL standard.

Is Kenny doing alright over there? The last time I checked he was struggling for game time for a side that has been relegated to the second division. I’ve just checked and he now plays in Greece having flopped in Germany. I do agree that Patterson’s career is likely to go the same way, though.

It still sounds unbelievable that Sevilla were after someone that would have effectively been Everton’s 4th choice ultra crap right back had we actually have signed someone like Hector Fort. His wages are relatively low though, so maybe Sevilla were just wanting to waste their money on a cheap...

Terms were agreed but it never happened. It’s almost like it might have been a load of bollocks? Who knows? But it sounded unbelievable at the time, and the fact that it never happened at all sounds extremely believable.

Winning a few games has obviously got some people feeling a bit uncomfortable.

I’m not Mykolenko’s biggest fan but he will have suitors, especially from abroad, and he could sign a precontract with a foreign club come January, so action definitely is needed. I think we need to keep Garner as well, as he’d have no shortage of suitors either.

The following players have contracts running out at the end of this season in summer 2026: Mykolenko Garner Tarkowski Keane Gueye Coleman Grealish Clubs sometimes like to leave a loan option available for January, which is understandable because you can get hit with unexpected injuries or...

I kind of get your point, but Newcastle, Villa and Forest have already made their progress in qualifying for European competitions. So whilst they may be a bit frustrated right now, they don’t regret maxing out their expenditure one bit, and Newcastle and Forest both achieved it by investing in...

It will come down to price with Soucek. I could see him doing well getting on the end of wing play from Grealish, Ndiaye and Dibling. Not every player can be 19 years old, but in the same way as you expect to pay more for the 19 year old with years ahead of him, you expect to pay less for...

That's one hell of a shop window to find yourself in if it all comes off. A much better loan deal than I was expecting.

I agree at the moment. I don’t think we are in any rush to sell Beto, but a decent bid for Beto could change that. He’s done okay but it still a bit of a lump in fairness. We’d take our money back on him imo.

Quite the difference to a Tesco car park in Kirkby.

Sometimes a nutcase is exactly what you need, especially in CM.

I don’t have the energy to argue tbh mate. But we can at least agree that your suggested alternative in Gueye is no DM.

I’m all ears for your suggested alternative?

Getting mullered tbh. Forgot to lay West Ham as well.

Some of us don’t spend Friday evening glued to the internet 🤷‍♂️

I’m not in love with Brownhill, especially when I think Moyes will eventually end up benching one of KDH, Gueye or Garner as I don’t think they can all play together. But I think it’s stupid to downplay someone’s talent based on who they’ve been contracted to, especially if a sizeable chunk of...

Just woken up to hear about Dibling. Good news! I agree that we are lightweight in CM, but I think we are even more lightweight in both fullback positions. Garner is no world beater but he’s our best CDM imo and makes quite the difference when he isn’t being forced to play full back.

There are two types: There is reactive negativity in response to piss-poor management, like hoarding left wingers or pseudo number 10’s when we haven’t bought a functioning right back in 30 years. Or potentially spending money to acquire an ageing crocked 5th centre back months after letting go...
