    Knife to a Gunfight, Part 2

    Champions League final? Let's get to 40 points first, then we'll talk about the rest of the season...

    Everton v Chelsea. 14th Sep @ 17.30.

    I strongly disagree. We took off a striker for a midfielder (McCarthy for Jelavic), and then a defender for midfielder (Stones for Naismith). For a few minutes we were playing a 5-5-0 (unofficially). I was screaming at the tv all of the second half, we really played like Wigan in the second...

    Moyes: his Very Important Match record

    I'm ready for him to go too, but in fairness, he probably deserves to have last year's sixth round replay brought up in his defense.

    4 Things In Football That Need To Be Jibbed, 1 Thing That Should Be in Football...

    1. Touching the ball like a [Poor language removed] after someone on your team has a foul called on them/you to prevent the quick re-start. Should be an automatic yellow every time. 2. Overuse of advantages. If you are 30 yards outside of goal and get hip checked and the ball rolls to your teammate, that is not an...

    MLS Thread.

    Haven't seen anyone impartial question the PK call tbf. I follow Wahl, Ives, local Philly guys, etc. on Twitter. Unless you think everyone is in the pocket of LA, which I suppose is as valid a conspiracy theory as any.

    Everton, the Medium Sized Club

    When you type "soccer in" the search box of wikipedia the first five results are United States, Australia, Canada, South Africa and New Zealand. All former British colonies. You guys brought this on yourselves. And we have finished top four once and won one trophy in the last 25 years. We...

    Evertonians In USA

    Suburbs of Philadelphia, PA. Started watching after hearing Landon was having a good run. 3-1 win over Man U was what hooked me, Goodison was rocking that day.

    Europe

    I don't believe its 100%. If Chelsea beat Spurs and finish behind Newcastle in the league (both tied at 50 right now), we would have to win.

    FA Cup last 16 draw

    Well, considering we have a grand total of 0 points against the current Top 8 in 8 games so far this season, I'd say we don't want anyone half decent. And based on last year's embarassing knockout to Reading, I'd prefer to stay away from any Championship or lower teams in case the bad Everton...

    MLS Thread.

    I know I'm late to the party, but despite the fact that I'm a Union fan, I wanted to chip in on the side in favor of LA/NY having all the star power. Look, nobody wants a league where two teams destroy their lame opposition like La Liga or the SPL. But to me, I don't want the teams to all be...

    MLS Thread.

    I disagree. If you are NY or LA, you can kind of dictate, to an extent, who to spend your DP money on and you can factor an increase in revenue based on commercial appeal. For everyone else (and I include my still DP-less Philly), the best way to increase revenue (or in VW's case keep them...

    Cahill article on home page.

    But using this logic, over the past 2 seasons I'm almost positive we have a better PPG average with Fellaini out injured than we do with him on the field since we had better second halves of the season both years and he missed part of the second half both seasons. So do we sit him too? Surely...

    Best Players to never win a trophy?

    I registered Feb 10, just prefer to read more than write. Only post when something gets under my skin. Don't know whether you were going for ironic with your LD comment or whether you really believe it. But Eurosnobs are rampant in the US, so you being from Ohio doesn't really clear anything up.

    Best Players to never win a trophy?

    Oh shut up. Landon doesn't have anything to prove to you. I'm all for rooting for Landon to come back to Everton, but anyone who wants to bitch and moan about him liking MLS and say everything he's accomplished in the league doesn't count is just being a Eurosnob.

    A Good Season

    For me, qualifying for Europe has to be the goal, because otherwise, what are we playing for? If we had made at least a run to the semis in one of the cups I could see arguing that we had a good season and just fell short. But finishing seventh doesn't count for much because we finished in eight...

    MLS Thread.

    I was at the Philly game. What a great time. First soccer game above the high school level that I've ever seen live. I was on the sideline about even with the 18 yard line on the side the Union was going the first half, so I got a great view of our two first half goals (and our two boneheaded...

    Sir Landon Of Donovan

    American here, not that familar with the team yet. Though I'm really excited the game Sat is on ESPN, I'll be up early to catch it. Anyway, here's my question. I was under the impression that LD would be getting playing time right now cause you guys have some guys out of action right now. So...
