As much as i can remember, this has always been the case even when we were half decent... Lost 6 on the bounce...Newcastle will help Need points to get out of the relegation zone or qualify for Europe....no worries, here come Newcastle On target to set a record low points total.....don't worry Newcastle will make it look a bit less worse

And we're just utter tripe

Is the price not just aligning with other premier league teams? I thought £65 was a massive rip off as i've been used to official kits being about £40, but then looking at most other teams from respectable retailers a shirt alone does seem to be £65 now...a Man U shirt from Sports Direct (of all places) is advertised at £65. If you want a shirt and can afford it, then get it. We are long past the point of whinging about giving Ashley money at this point given the miniscule amount he gets from merchandise and tickets now.

Stuff like this should be spammed to every WUM in the media that says we should be grateful to Ashley

I'd like to play for a top 6 club too. I'm only limited by being about 3 stone overweight, massively unfit, and generally pretty crap at football in general. Can dream though :-)

https://www.football365.com/news/worst-xi-opening-weekend-leno-balogun-zaha Even mainstream is now asking why Shelvey is playing....difference is they're asking why he's playing if not fit. They've not quite realised yet that this is as fit as he gets

How much influence did he have yesterday? Match was eerily similar to the Euro final.....take an early lead, then just sit back deeper and deeper till everyone can see what was going to happen

The teams lack of energy and pressing is infectious....other teams see how simply they can get in and around and end up easing up taking it for granted that they'll score. Basically we bore them in to making mistakes

Only way he'll win that bunch of scouse makems over is by winning every game....with style. As divided a fanbase as we have, most could see that there was a plan, and each game was approached with the intent of getting a win somehow even if it involved sitting back. We could appreciate the multiple titles and trophies over his career....all they see is his words 'Everton is a small club'. Yes sometimes we played absolutely dire stuff under him, but there was always a sense of a plan and a way to move forward...he's basically their Bruce

Despite the fact that the 'high street' is pretty much dead (thanks in part to Big Mike himself) There's got to be some chain that's bordering on going bankrupt left for him to target. Poundland? H&M? I don't know physical shops anymore?!

With the players they have they should have dominated for the last few seasons. Simple fact is that their league doesn't keep them challenged enough to be sharp when the important CL matches come around Exactly the same reason that Rangers and Celtic never make it past the first rounds of European competition.

Mercenary c***. The nerve of it

That's all well and good, but if you've got a bunch of excellent players not being challenged most weeks, when it comes to the challenge they'll fail. Scotland is a good example of this on a cheaper scale...Rangers/Celtic walk their league every year but as soon as they encounter any European opposition of similar/better quality they consistently fail. If this approach worked PSG would already have a Champions League trophy. It's all well and good winning the 3 leg donkey race every week when you're the only 4 legged one, but as soon as you're in a horse race as a donkey you're stuffed.

So depressingly unimaginative and boring. Here is a player who could have literally chosen to go to any club in the world, play for free salary wise and still be in the top 5 for earning based on image rights and marketing deals alone. I don't blame him for chasing the money, 99% of us would too but surely there's a point where you earn more than it's physically possible to spend?

Standard PR gubbins from any company that wants to make money. Think Enron's were pretty similar

https://www.football365.com/news/ferdinand-slams-arsenal-unbelievable-transfer-willock-newcastle Does this make him a terrible signing since we know how dense Ferdinand is, or does he actually have a rare useful insight?

There's not a club in this country that doesn't boo a team for poor performances. We don't seem to be allowed to without 'being on the managers back'. Send them to Turkey and they'd see how volatile a fans response can be.

Because PSG aside, the French league is at best 5th best in terms of quality behind Spain, Italy, England, and Germany. Take PSG out of the mix then there's a fair argument to say its not much better than Portugal or Netherlands (all opinion and subjective i know)

And there's where it falls down with Mike being involved

Wasn't the whole point of Neymar going to Paris in the first place to be the 'main man' as he was tired of always being second best to Messi

We have backup? Assume you mean Mike's wallpaper?...still more effective than Joelinton

Try impossible. As some very rich would possibly stand to lose money, many lawyers would appear like flies round a cow pat and tie it up in court forever. Hell, look hard enough and there's still a fair few making money trying to overturn the Bosman ruling

Babs' tits would probably be more motivational as training than the facilities.....pity they weren't great even by the standards of the time
