And a forward.... injury to Wilson/Isak and we're stuffed

?

So yet another pointless signing done purely so no one else can have him

I needed a good laugh today ?

If he plays well for us his Everton days will soon be forgotten. Almost everyone was underwhelmed when Bellamy signed

Maybe because the owner (KLD) doesn't actually have any access to his family fortune and is only allowed to use the interest on his trust fund. Might be a different story when the Matriarch pops her clogs

Hospitality event after meeting with Al-Rumyyan

Who cares...at the time it was funny as f***. Will probably make him a target in the return leg if he plays though

Only works if someone actually buys him...

If they sell those three it won't even come close to covering what they've spent recently, unless they've got some massively creative accounting or are ready to take the 'slap on the wrist' punishment for FFP. Which if i recall is a miniscule fine and a reduction in players available for European games (which they wont have anyway), and which will be overturned on appeal.

Never heard of "white card"....or is this a whoosh? https://www-sportbible-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/www.sportbible.com/football/referee-white-card-benfica-v-sporting-769758-20230122.amp.html?amp_gsa=1&amp_js_v=a9&usqp=mq331AQIKAGwASCAAgM%3D#amp_tf=From %1%24s&aoh=16745046991332&csi=0&referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com&ampshare=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sportbible.com%2Ffootball%2Freferee-white-card-benfica-v-sporting-769758-20230122

Exactly this...I remember when he was a youngster playing at Wigan

It was never intentional no matter what he says....it was too fast for him to have decided he was going to do that. Sometimes when playing the ball plays just lands where you want, and if good enough (like Bergkamp) you can make it count and look amazing...hell even in 5-aside a lucky bounce can make you look like a superstar with an accidental swing of the leg.

I struggled to see Mitros second touch on the penalty...even in slo-mo and replay. Still can't really see it unless he clipped it with his left before shooting on right?

Love it, but sounds so wrong for a team that prefer to lose 4-3 than win 1-0 ;-)

And there are only 91 EPL/EFL teams that didn't have an owner who actively wanted them out of cups at the earliest opportunity every year

Not sure on this one...don't recall the spurs fans ever hating seeing his name in the team

Can't see us losing to Southampton over two legs barring some massive brain-fart from EH.

Genuinely stumped. Yes the fee did set expectations, but he's looking a bargain now thanks to the change in position. I doubt we could find someone better for £40m in midfield now. If Jamaal Lewis suddenly turns into Gareth Bale we might have some competition

Have we ever had a player like him, who everyone dreaded seeing in the teamsheet do such a majestic turnaround so where they're now one of the first names on there? I genuinely cant think of any player that has improved as much as him while with us?

Had honestly never heard of this guy before he signed, but he's been a brilliant signing. In his current form he'd easily be knocking at the England door if he was at one of the 'traditional top six' teams.

Beg to differ....lived there for 3 years and it was an absolute hole full of the angriest people i've ever known. Visited a few months back and the city centre is absolutely dire....filthy with rubbish and half the shops closed and decaying. Admittedly the areas outside the immediate town centre and by the waterfront have massively improved with lots of new developments, but a pig in lipstick is still a pig.

Lewis,Murphy, and Anderson were dire last night. It was their chance to show they were worthy of being in the team and they royally showed that they werent

Dreadful last night. Would have looked better at home playing for Sheff Wed. Messed the basics so many times
