I was thinking the same. I think Loftus-Cheek looks talented and Newcastle should be watching him closely, but he's done fuck all really.

Allardyce and Dyche are nothing special but they will keep them up. A really bad appointment and we could see the rot setting in and them getting relegated at some point in the next 3 years. If us and Villa can go down then so can Everton.

He doesn't want to go to a MASSIVE OLD club and play the Everton way? Maybe the tradition of mega-sexy football that they're known for intimidated him.

Nothing is going to happen quickly, if it's done by the end of the season i'll be happy enough. I'd be surprised if it's done by New Year.

Please offer it to Ryan Giggs.

He's worth nowhere near £5m.

Joselu makes Shola look useful.

I wonder why they decided to broadcast this, it was always going to be grim.

I wonder if there's a worse starting striker in the league.

Lets face it, Stevie G won that final single handed, it had nothing to do with Benitez bringing on Hamann, who was the best player on the pitch in the 2nd half.

I've been bemused watching the coverage of Everton this season, the shitter they get the more the club is talked up it seems.

I don't know how a British manager that knows Everton from head to fanny has lost to a dull foreigner that failed at Southampton with an 8th place finish.

That's a shame, i'm hoping Unsworth gets the job fulltime.

Their sports budget probably doesn't stretch to that these days.

Can't wait to see what they can do under Gareth Southgate over the next 10 years.

My favourite reactions to our possible takeover are from people that think no amount of investment could ever make us successful. Just 100% bitterness 0% logic.

Oh god, here comes the Mourinho masterclass wankathon.

Why will the club lose money, and why will it lose value whilst it remains in the premier league considering the TV deals keep gaining value?

Surely the incentive for buying a football club comes from the increase in value that will come with the TV deals. I think it's predicted that the foreign TV deals will get more and more valuable, and that is what is driving most of the investment. If you can make a club a mainstay in the premier league, and turn it into a global brand by playing in the CL, then you could have an asset worth £1bn plus in 10 years. Maybe even a perennial midtable club could end up being worth that. Look at Man City, for all the money they've spent the club is now worth $3bn, they've been a great investment.

Just when I was warming to the tit, even the likes of Mourinho and Pardew would be embarrassed to use that excuse.

Better that they're looking for a manager now than in 3 months when our takeover has fallen through.

Too soon, they should have let him hang around like some sort of zombie Jonah. On that note, I hope Moyes gets the job.

I don't get how they can be this bad with Koeman as manager, he's not a Pardew or a McClaren.

Cech has been a bit dopey today

I love that, the losing manager complaining about the amount of stoppage time.
