This lad is quality. I think he is happy to join us for this reason: He's sick and tired of Top clubs. Being a PSG and then Barcelona player comes with huge expectations and pressure. He's now looking to ease things with us and he's getting the same contract if not better.

Possibly a backwards compliment. 

Happy birthday, @Matt

 Everton are watching possible options to replace Pickford and scout Jim Barron – an ex-goalkeeper – watched Seagulls stopper Ryan in action on Saturday as Brighton drew 1-1 in a pre-season friendly against Birmingham City at St Andrew’s.

It's reportedly a precaution in case Pickford leaves.

Watford FC feels compelled to make the following statement in a bid to correct erroneous and misleading media reports concerning an ongoing dispute with Everton FC. 

The club have made an official complaint to the Premier League over an allegation of an illegal approach to former manager, Marco Silva. 

The complaint to the Premier League makes clear the seriousness of the allegation and what the club believes is overwhelming evidence of a clear breach of Premier League rules. 

At the request of the Premier League we entered into mediation with Everton in a process that involved club officials and their respective legal teams, with no conclusion being reached. 

Therefore the disciplinary process continues. In pursuing its disciplinary claim, the club has known from the outset it forfeited any right to compensation as a consequence of not following a proposed arbitration process. 

We believe this situation is not about a compensation figure but the principle of making a stand when the actions of one Premier League club completely undermine and cause intrinsic damage to a fellow member club. 

We trust in the Premier League to fully investigate the complaint and we will comply with that process. 

The club will be making no further comment.

Luke Shaw has rejected the opportunity to rebuild his stalling career at Everton. Out of favour at Manchester United after spurning multiple chances to establish himself as the club’s starting left-back, Shaw has been made available for transfer in the current window as Jose Mourinho seeks to improve his defensive options.

Today, an Arab website is reporting that he's choosing between Al-Hilal of UAE (with his former manager,  Jorge Jesus), Everton, and Fulham. 

I remember Nike used to invite him to train in Portland so he could get away from the crowds and concentrate on his fitness.

 I don't know if this guy is a fan or just wearing the shirt.

Why would someone want to buy this?

Ratification of the proposal recommended by the Bureau of the Council during its meeting on 30 March 2017, according to which the direct berths for the FIFA World Cup as of the 2026 edition are split as follows*:

. AFC: 8.5 slots 

· CAF: 9.5 slots 

· CONCACAF: 6.5 slots 

· CONMEBOL: 6.5 slots 

· OFC: 1.5 slot 

· UEFA: 16 slots

 

So. three places will be allocated to hosts, and the other three will be earned through qualification.

They're currently playing eachother in a competition to decide which team will play against Everton at Goodison Park inthe pre-season.

It doesn't look very good for Villa.

There are rumours that they need a multi-multi-million pound investment to stave off administration for this (2018/19) season.
