Pretty much how I'm feeling with it too. However, I've just seen the long sleeve pics, and my cock could now cut diamonds.

Agree with this, I wouldn't be unhappy if we got Mbuemo but at the same time I think we need to be more strategical with our money. We also need to look at central midfield because we lack goals from that area to take us to the next level imo.

Why not both?

There's not much risk with Mbuemo, but there isn't much reward either. He's highly unlikely to get better at this stage, so we get what we get and prey it's worth the astronomical PL-premium we'd havet to pay. If we bought him, and he had a good season, I don't think he'd be a big improvement in terms of numbers on what Murphy has provided us this season. I'd rather we took a calculated risk on someone cheaper and younger that could potentially become better than Mbuemo, while leaving us with more to spend on other positions as well.

I'm not missing anything about his stats. I see one season where he massively outscored his xG compared to his previous career. And his underlying numbers really don't scream that we MUST sign this soon 26 year old for +£60m. I'm sure he'll be a decent pick up wherever he goes but I don't know if the risk/reward is there for us.

Fingers crossed.

Nah, didn't know him on registration day. Turned out he was alright. And we didn't know in 87 what would happen in 90 🙄🤕🤒

Any chance Everton let their reserves or youth play this? I'm confident we will get it done but Everton literally have nothing to play for so would they give some new blood a run out?

Anyone who's genuinely flapping about this game just isn't up to speed with who we are now! Something freakish will have to happen on Sunday for us not to win, we are too good to let this slip. Most likely outcome is its done and dusted after 20-30 minutes and we are out of sight, enjoy.

Mag at skewl?

I house shared with a Washy Mackem in my final year at Uni in 1990. Try that!

We've done a fair bit of talking about games we should've got more out of, but it's worth reflecting on those points we got that didn't feel major at the time but certainly are now. Bruno stabbing in the only goal at West Ham the game before the cup final stands out to me. Schar and Barnes smashing in the equaliser and winner at Wolves too. And the 4 points we got from behind down at Forest and Bournemouth look a lot more meaningful half a year later too.

Apologies mate if I didn't really make much discussion. I'd lost my wedding ring during all the shenanigans with various flags and I wanted to be home to watch the Inter game with the Mrs. After 6 hours in last night and 2 tonight (before tomorrow) I had to be sure to keep the peace Thanks again for your hard work tonight and i'll probably catch you next time properly

Aye they are choosing, we have to wait for scraps. Another consequence of these stupid rules.

Players and agents don’t need convincing to go there.

He might be absolutely shite (you’ll have watched far more of him than me..) but there’s obviously a reason he gets picked every week. I mean I watched Alcaraz when he came on for him on Sunday, and he was… absolutely shite… although tbf others on here have said that’s not representative of him, but Moyes obviously much prefers Doucoure to him.

Given he is absolutely shit, I don't think it'll make much of a difference.

Moyes said in his presser today Doucoure has “already accepted a higher offer to go somewhere else” (might be paraphrasing a bit). Appreciate he’s played virtually every game, and probably agreed to go wherever he’s going a while ago, but given the circumstances around this game, would he really want to play in it?

Genuinely think Mainoo could be a Howe-type player. Excellent physical attributes, positional versatility (to a degree). Wouldn’t be in ahead of the starting three (obviously) at the moment, but if, as seems likely to me, Longstaff leaves, he significantly improves depth. The article in the Sun (aye, I know, I know…) today claims they’re “certain” to sell him and Garnacho. Says £55m for Mainoo, which is probably a bit too steep IMO, but get it closer to £40m and I like it. Relatively low wages too, so could probably offer him a substantial increase without too much bother. Imagine taking a 20-year old England international off Man Utd…

This, Everton would no doubt love to piss on our chips but how far are they going to go? Will they scrap for every ball for 90 mins? Throw themselves into last ditch tackles? Put their bodies on the line chasing lost causes? I can’t see it, we need an early goal and they’ll fold.

Good to finally meet you. Always interesting when I arrive and they ask are you here from the supporters group? Nope some random on an internet forum said I could help out. Looked great when I left tonight and it was only half done. Everyone is going to be impressed on Sunday.

Think Dave forgot to change the door code.

Fook off

Not a fan. Looks like a bunch of ideas mushed together. But I pretty much always resent having blue in our kits.
