Colos Short and Curlies

But wouldn't that be the case with a hell of a lot of fouls where the ref seems it a yellow at worst when replays show studs up etc? Ref sees an incident and rules it as he sees fit, end of story for the incident surely?

Off to this - every away game I've been to we've picked up 3 points , unfortunately every Swansea home game I've been to they've picked up 3 points. Draw it is then

Probably off on holiday this week before the kids go back to school

Murphy, De Jong, Atsu/Aarons, Joselu/Mitro front 4 for me. Young fast wingers, a bit of guile and a focal point. It's simple and crude football but looking at the squad quick wingers seem to be where we are well stocked

De Jong didn't even make the bench last weekend. Unless he's had an incredible week of training, then why would he jump from not being in the 18 to starting? Horses for courses? Pretty sure we saw a few lineups last season where someone (ok usually Mitro or Murphy) would go from out the squad to first 11

Could possibly see De Jong start if Hayden and Merino are the midfield 2 to give a bit of an experienced head with them

Spurs-Chelsea-River Plate-LA Galaxy

Could Elliott look any creepier?

He sounds like an ISS/early Pro Evo Spanish striker and for that reason I'm in

Season done

This generations Rob Lee

Courtois penalty taking needs a bit of practice.

It's like 1996 and Ben Arfa had a baby Hatem skills with Barton hair

Stronger bench than first 11. Gotta love pre season

Did their careers end with the stat that Scholes scored more goals at SJP as Dyer? It was definitely the case at the end of Bobby's reign

I reckon we'd be having the same discussions over Ginola and Robert if they had come along now rather than when football had time for the flawed genius. 15 years ago Ben Arfa would have been an absolute club legend not a divisive figure

He's a right back isn't he? So Anita's replacement rather than PDs

Didn't see the game but heard he did well - Mr Ryder gave him 5 though - was he even there lol ? With an almost copy and paste of Gautiers words. Basically written every weeks rating for the lad already regardless on how he plays

Rafa playing chicken with death here

I'd put a cut off of minutes per season that a player (over 21) has to play in or they become available for 1 years worth of wages, or even a free. 2 seasons on loan in a row - free

Lovely journey over the Pennines from manchester

If we are looking for numbers on a restricted budget it would be great if there was a talented winger/number 10 available on a free from PSG we could look at.

Keeper, 8 solid system players behind, one maverick in the hole and a mobile striker. Perfect

It feels like Everton have made some good signings and doing the right thing by buying before selling.... but have they replaced Lukakus goals with who they have brought in? If after all these signings he stayed I would put a cheeky fiver on them winning the league but assuming he goes will they improve on last years finish?

Does Low have those sweat patches built in to his shirts? They are so common with him they may as well be dyed fabric as standard
