He’d be a huge upgrade for us. But he is way to often selfish and always want to try himself. He is also an very mood dependent player. When its not going good he fades away totaly.

True, but he has kind of had to be for Everton, I think under Howe that would change as I hope it does with ASM… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But there are players I would rather go for. From Everton Gordon have impressed me alot and have been the best of the bunch in alot of the latest matches.

I mean have you got evidence to back that up or is it like so many other footballing myths ? mackems when they survived several times, Leicester the year before they won the league, us when we went down… there are loads of examples of it. Whether it consistently happens or if it’s just one or two teams every so often is up for debate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was said was that teams at the bottom pick up more points in the second half of the season than the first. Obviously some teams will, some won't, I just wondered if there was evidence of it being a general rule. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
samptime29 Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 (edited) As said in match thread, I would be happy with 4 points from next 3. Would set us up nicely. Edited March 9, 2022 by samptime29 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every season about this time of year there is a random story about x club getting a points deduction to throw the relegation/top four/title fight into disarray. It never happens.

RodneyCisse Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 5 hours ago, HTT II said: I’d take Richarlison in a heart beat too, he’s a dynamic, aggressive forward with goals in him. He’s lost his way a bit this season, but then so have most of the Everton team. The feel good factor and possibly having some sort of relationship with our Brazilian boys might help if he was to come. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfcastle Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Don't think Richarlison is the kind of c**t we'd be interested in if the last window is anything to go by. Good team personalities. An under-rated commodity perhaps considering it was something Keegan looked for and that worked out pretty well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LV Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 I don’t think Richarlison is all that tbh Wouldnt want Rashford either. I think he’s lost it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiresias Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 He is having a bad year but he has scored over 11 goals previous 3 years largely playing as a winger. and was a teenager for 2 of those years. He is 3 years younger than Ollie Watkins who gets a lot of praise and scores more. He is low on confidence right now, he has not scored that much but also hasnt had the minutes and been in a poor team geared towards Ronaldo. I would have him in a heartbeat, Howe could get him singing and the attack could be built around him. Ludicrous to call him 'finished' or anything.

Menace Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 (edited) Seeing Burnley and Everton's run. I think Everton will go. Burnley have a few winnable matches. Surprisingly bookies still have them at 3/1 so.... Edited March 10, 2022 by Menace Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 Richarlison's attitude on the pitch hasn't always been there and he's technically limited. If we want a Brazilian wide forward, it's got to be Raphinha. With him and Rice, they go to a top club but if we move early and aggresively we can get them.

Raphinha I think might be possible this summer, Rice nah. As has been said any player that will expect to be paid over 100k a week won’t be here.

Pretty sure they will be. £100k is nothing to decent footballers these days- around 5 or 6 at Everton are on/above that, and I’d be hoping we sign better quality players than all of those. edit- plus isn’t Bruno on more than that? Lots of sources say £120k Edited March 10, 2022 by Manxst Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically I wouldn’t say he’s limited myself, not great, but decent enough, like Perez was for us. And Raphina any day of the week. No chance we sign Rice unless we offer something like 250k a week. He’ll go to Man Utd or if WHU make the CL, he will stay for another season.

Not sure on this....Man U have become basket cases, and unless they get a real manager with a proper plan they won't have the pick and choose of the best players for a fair while. We've got as much chance as West Ham of signing him...them because this season looks like a massive flash in the pan job, us because all we can solidly offer at the minute is a huge pay check.

Let’s not get ahead of ourselves… Thats a fair point, but it is starting to look like they are just throwing money at 'star' players without any thought as to how they would actually make their team better. We threw money at Chris Wood....might not be any kind of decent player, but it can't really be argued that his presence hasn't improved out results. Man U went for Ronaldo....sold a few more shirts, but their team looks worse than before he signed as he's got this untouchable aura that insists on a team being entirely focussed on him getting the goal/assist. Unfortunately for the he is now 37, and no matter how much training and dedication he has, things will start slowing down, niggles will take longer to heal, fatigue will take longer to pass.

Rice and others won’t think of the bigger team dynamic/picture when considering to join them, they’ll be confident they are joining a club that competes for major honours, for massive wages and will be playing alongside big name stars in front of 70+ fans and that their ability can help win the club trophies. Ronaldo wasn’t put off rejoining because he would have to potentially press more in their set-up, it might make him consider leaving, but again most players don’t even think about where they’d fit in or not, not at clubs like Man Utd, in the way they don’t as a club these days either.
