  1. watch chelsea go win the champions league, appoint him full time again and be in a relegation battle next season
  2. nice reminder that when fit he's a bloody good striker the movement for the first goal and finish on the header was brilliant, nice to have some different options in him and Isak
  3. I actually liked it, also they got all the highlights in 20 minutes how much waffle does the show have jesus.
  4. every football fan is like that, though the manner of Gordon leaving would leave a bad taste in any fans mouth let alone for an academy product to do that while they're so much in the shit
  5. not entirely sure this is a good idea but hope to be proven wrong and for him to be a great signing
  6. Dyches the best choice for the current situation Everton tbh hard job but things are tight at that end of the table at the moment so get a few results and a little bit of momentum and they're way higher in the table. Bielsa's a great manager but I don't think he's the guy you bring in mid-season in their situation, he needs the pre-season to get the squad trained up for how he likes to play. What Everton really need is some stability they've chopped and change so often over the last few years but their current board seems utterly incompetent, hell even their shortlist seems more akin of oh he's well known lets go for him instead of any though process on how he'll fit in philosophy etc, what kind of recruitment campaign leaves choice 1 as Bielsa and choice 2 as Dyche who is a completely different style of manager
  7. iirc he was alright as a pundit that or i've blocked anything horrific from my memory
  8. two factors I grew up in the 1990s with Kevin Keegans team so that left an impression and I liked the newcastle brown ale sponsored shirt
  9. seems UEFA want to close a loophole in FFP chelsea have been using that you can't amortise player purchases over 7-8 years like they've been doing
  10. the sane choice for the short to medium term is Dyche, proven he can do wonders with £5 worth of budget and what they need now is to survive and build some solid foundations. Bielsa is the fantasy appointment but hard to see a man who does as much due dilegence as him going into Everton as they're currently run or even just to go in mid-season and I don't think he's the guy you want for the remainder of the season just to get enough points to stay up
  11. why the fuck does the official website have the wolves game
  12. by all accounts he was influential enough with the russian government in the 90's to recommend Putin as the successor to Yeltsin
  13. that statement on abramovich by her is a just plain stupid thing to say
  14. yikes, though finding a buyer for £2-3b with extra costs of redeveloping stamford bridge might be difficult. Could be an exercise in buying time for this to blow over and try and stop the uk government just taking it
  15. Rob Harris on Twitter: "BREAKING: FIFA says Russia can play as 'RFU' team without the country's flag or anthem but could still be banned from World Cup qualifying" / Twitter
  16. not as of yet but he has Portuguese and Isreali citizenship as well so seems complicated
  17. moving the cl final is one thing terminating a €40m a year sponsorship deal is another (as well as kicking out zenit from all competition as they're owned by gazprom who are owned by putin)
  18. thought it might take a little longer, end of summer window at the earliest
  19. pity uefa will never follow suit the greedy bastards
