    Ok fair enough what are you gonna do about it ? I’ll tell you fuck all Pad it’s out of your hands the same as mine so I’m not going to worry about something that I can’t control. 

    I’m just more pissed that they gave a fat Dutch cunt the license to go out and spend 100 plus million on shit, but like I said not my money Moshiri’s money. 

    And it’s dickhead attitudes like yoours that get clubs in trouble in the first place- It’s not Moshiris money- do you think he’s buying these players out of entirely his own money- do you think he wont want whatever money he has spent back when he leaves? It’s the clubs money, money the fans spend and the club generates through revenue and sponsorship etc- pissing it up the wall is not good for the club.

  2. I don’t think anyone has ever said he’s a superstar have they? What he is is a very good ball winning midfielder, a terrier if you like, tough tackling great engine- his job isn’t to hold his position it’s to hunt the ball down- that’s what he does. He’s full of running and stamina and can’t be held responsible everytime our forward line lose the ball and we’re caught on the break.

    He’s nowhere near world class but the unjust criticism here is laughable it really is- ranked near the bottom of the worst defenders ever to play for us? Fuck me people have short memories.

    I don’t get the hate, but he was poor Sunday and I get the criticism. There’s a very talented player in there who shows himself with some consistency, but not enough consistency to avoid being a bit frustrating.

    He didn’t have his best game admittedly, he was largely anonymous but he still had a chance- granted he missed it but he usually gets into at least one goalscoring position a game, his pace and running offer us an outlet and you get 100% out of him.

    Doesn't help that it was Palace either, wrong game to put him up front whilst he's still learning the role. 

    Shouldn’t matter who we are playing, he needs to learn to pass and think of the team not just himself grabbing a headline. I’m delighted he wants it that much but hopefully with maturity he’ll learn to stop trying to beat the whole defence on his own for a full 90 minutes.

    He needs to stop slowing the play down too.

    He's a kid though, and I'm sure Silva will be in his ear about certain things.

    Yep- not knocking the lad, he’s very young and will hopefully learn but he infuriated me yesterday with his unwillingness to pass- time and time again he held on to it knowing he was running down a blind alley.

    One trick pony, and the defenders have already picked him out, cutting inside every time was so easy for the full back.

    Here we go 🙄🙄 one bad game when he’s not played for over 7 months and he’s a one trick pony!! Palace came and their plan was to snuff out our wide players, they had 2 on him and Walcott all game. Nothing he did came off. Give him a chance eh.

    Don’t think we need an overhaul, next summer we should have pinpoint changes. 

    Ive been a bit concerned by Silva and change in the past, but they’re happily proving me wrong. There’s stability, let’s build on that. 

    3-4 quality acquisitions and I’d be made up : strike, RB, AMC and a bonus. 

    He’s already overhauled the squad by shipping out the deadwood and plugging the gaps- we need to make a couple of loan signings permanent (both ways) and the four I mentioned ant Brands has worked a miracle inside 3 windows for me.

    I always knew if Silva and Brands were going to work it would take time, still not saying it absolutely will but I’m not expecting us to be anywhere near the top 6 for another 2 seasons.

    It’s a valid point, but we need his permit to come through so he develops at Everton. Looking at the two arguments, one is more relevant than the other. Of course he has to develop, but if we keep having to loan him out because he can’t get a permit, then permit comes first. The lad clearly has a bunch of talent, and maybe we can nurture it better once he’s here? To do that, he needs a permit and for that to happen, international apps mean more. 

    If he isn’t playing for his club side he doesn’t get picked for Nigeria Matt- it’s imperative he plays every minute and does well.

  9. I’d be surprised if we brought anyone of any note in, I’d prefer to wait until the summer and get our top targets in than overpay for a Tosun or the likes. I always knew this season would be a transitional one and a top half finish is alls I expected. A squad overhaul and us moving in the right direction with better players and a stronger squad, add to that in the summer a top quality striker a new right back and a new box to box centre mid and hopefully Zouma and we’ll be sound.
