  1. Young was 100% at fault for their 1st goal yesterday so not dismissing a poor performance but we simply should not be playing Garner on the right at home to Luton when we’ve got Harrison and Danjuma available. Gueye didn’t need to play yesterday. Poor tactics by Dyche.
  2. Poor set-up today - credit for the past week but shocking today and it’s very much on Dyche.
  3. Play Harrison in front of him for 90mins and we’re not talking about this.
  4. Lucky we got him on loan with no obligation then. Play him centrally with Beto or DCL and McNeil and Harrison either side and you’ll see what he can do - that will stretch even the top sides something we’ve not been able to do in a long, long time.
  5. Needs to play in a 2 more with Garner - may happen now we have McNeil and Harrison ready (players who will work all over and non-stop). I do think Dyche will revert to Gana and Doucoure though.
  6. I gave it Branthwaite as a roll over from the Arsenal game as we didn’t have one for that game - over the 2 games, he was the stand-out for me.
  7. Agree - let’s just enjoy our first 3 points though - no need for negs today!
  8. Perfect opportunity in the next 2 home games - maybe not from the start but I hope we get to see it with McNeil and Harrison whipping balls in (with a 2 or 3 goal cushion to ease the transition).
  9. Sound performance yesterday - him and McNeil on set-pieces makes us threatening from both sides - we need this so Garner needs to be starting every week.
  10. 1st point - yep. 2nd point - Young’s a useful player - I want Patterson/Harrison to be the first choice partnership but don’t get all the hate for Young - one of our few players who is comfortable in possession, bags of energy, versatile and actually has a bit of know-how. He’s not a long-term option but is valuable in the short-term. Evertonians need a scapegoat - it’s what we do.
  11. 100% this. Brings balance and seems to be growing in confidence - having McNeil back helps.
  12. He’s come out and explained why… maybe, with ‘everything’ out in the open, he can regain what he had. At 100%, he was one of the best in the world so he’s worth a bit of patience and support at least!
  13. He’s our best player, by far. As Evertonians, we love comparing… the next Rooney… but Branthwaite absolutely stinks of John Stones - classy player - love him!
  14. I think many have forgotten how good Calvert-Lewin is (including many Toffees) - before the injuries, he was the main competition to Kane for England. The hype’s all about Toney (even with the ban), Wilson and Watkins at the mo but all were well behind a fully fit and firing Calvert-Lewin a couple of years ago. Beto, even if he doesn’t bang 10-15 goals a season, will still be a great signing if it allows Calvert-Lewin to get back to where he was.
  15. The Esk on Twitter is a very good source on the business side of EFC: ’It is just noise. No doubt 777 would like to have Everton in their portfolio but they don't have the cash currently to do so.’
  16. 777 clubs include Sevilla, Hertha Berlin, Genoa, Red Star FC, Standard Liège and Vasco da Gama. All can be found down by the bottom of their league bar Red Star who are top of a lower French league - fans protesting at most of these clubs over the poor ownership… sounds about right. Has Moshiri managed to find the one buyer who makes him look like a good owner?! We could be in for a rough ride if this isn’t stopped in some way.
  17. https://x.com/ettifaq/status/1699716730543808840?s=46&t=hH9MW86Z7OdDqsQukrKMvA The announcement video is sensational… we couldn’t get Salah, we couldn’t get Coutinho so we settled for Gray!
  18. Do you have some info on this or just hearsay? Please share.
  19. Gray has just posted a dig (at Dyche?) on Instagram - thanking the fans but can’t play for someone who doesn’t respect him as a person. No way back from this I guess.
  20. Welcome to Everton J-Lingz… https://x.com/evertonnewsfeed/status/1698261094756716631?s=46&t=hH9MW86Z7OdDqsQukrKMvA
  21. Branthwaite but could have been Gueye, Onana, Beto or Pickford in my opinion. I’m glad Patterson got his assist - so much to like about him but he always seems to be involved in the big moments against - he’s hopefully going to benefit from having a proper wide-man (hopefully Harrison) in front of him eventually. Same can be said about Young too to be fair.
  22. All the best to him - it can’t have been easy with him being away from his mother. I do hope Malik’s mother gets better soon.
  23. Surely we noticed Hamer when scouting Gyorkes- would have been a top quality Iwobi replacement who we must have known was leaving having not signed that contract.
