so typical preseason run out? as long as we got some fitness and avoided further injuries job done

Basically yeah

 

[D410]

we will pass ourselves to death without a creative AM and No 9

Koeman may still want to sign another CM.

Erm...I did a bit of hatchet job there didn't I....but it's all current problems that will improve through preseason....probably

Their squad doesn't cost the same as davy klaasen you melt

I wouldn't use that as an example of transfer values tbh. Lots of factors that aren't included.

Mate we could probably buy the whole club for 24m.

Reckon we will finish about 10th this season.

What planet are you living on, la'

15th.....if we are lucky enough to find five teams worse than us

Yup. Funny who comes out of the woodwork when it suits them, and this was the best opportunity for 'em as we've won the other two preseason matches of course. It was mediocre, nothing actually bad save for cuco's header.

I remember when I used to post bilge and other posters took it seriously/cared.

Great days them, long gone. RIP.

Time for a new multi

No mate. It's the end of the world.

If you make 10 subs it isn't a real game. The dynamic is totally different then having to last 90 minutes

Good to see the op

No. It is a real game. Regardless of the substitution ruling you just invented to justify it isn't. Clubs organize these friendlies to prepare for the upcoming season. As a general rule, match fitness, sharpness, energy et al should steadily improve as the pre season goes on. Yes Genk are a couple of weeks ahead of us in their fitness as their league starts next week.

But that was poor for me. Same old same old. Slow build up. Some hit and hope crosses. Sloppy passing. Defensive errors. Same as really.

You said it yourself!! They're two weeks ahead of us.
I'm sick of all the doom and gloom merchants on here.
We've made big strides in the transfer market so far.
Some of the dross we have signed in the last 20 years tells us where we have been, a second rate premier league side, no money, no leadership, no ambition.
Now, we have a little bit of money, a decent, ambitious manager, and English internationals prepared to put pen to paper and sign for us, because they believe.

What do want this season?

Do you want 5th in the league?
Runners up in the FA Cup?
Semi finalists in the League/Carling/Milk/Capital 1 Cup????

Will that be a good season or will you slag the board ????

We are all Evertonians, all Blues,

FFS lets get behind the club, this could be the dawn of a complete new era for OUR team, OUR club.

RANT OVER

A preseason filled with new signings. What a time to be alive.

 

[ham2]

This place is like a kids nursery at times, but that's why we luv it.
Nea it's 6 days before more important game so they would only be goin about 70%.

 

[trueblue10]

That Buffel was decent as well.

Premier league week in week out decent?
