Sad day.

he's been spinning that line about the kids since he arrived. In reality with Garbutt possibly the exception, none of them have had a sniff. It'll be Barkley, Naisy, Rom & Kone on the wings before we see any youngsters given a go imo.

Thank fuck for that! Maloney & Al Habsi? Champions league? Having a laugh!

Really pleased for him to get his goal after so long.
That's pretty much all i am pleased about at the moment though.

Didn't we all think that about Rom though?

My mates, nephews, little sisters dog reckons the big man was seen speeding away from Bob's house in his milk float a few weeks back with old brown shoes in quick pursuit waving his fist. Nothing substantial to back it up like but sounds feasible to me.

The media do the same thing whenever one of our players impresses without fail. Barkley, Stones, Coleman, McCarthy, Baines, Rodwell, Rooney, the list is endless. "Well they're too good to be playing for little old Everton, who can we flog them off to?" Its not exactly been a secret we haven't had a pot to piss in for years either so we've been a soft target for lazy journo's. Historically we've had one, maybe two stand out players though & now we've pretty much got a team full. Why would Ross want to go anywhere else?

Well thought out analysis.

Can we be fair to Hibbert too.
 
We all had misgivings about him. But that's 4 games in a row having not played for 2 years. And he hasn't really done much wrong. Ok, he's not as dynamic as Coleman but he has done no harm.
 
Fair play to him.

Have to say, we have been so unlucky this second half.
Their second goal was a miss hit shot that fell lucky.
Their keeper has made some great saves.

These last two subs have flummoxed me again. Well, more Osman than Browning. We're behind and have Eto'o sitting on his arse.

With you on that Matt. I dread the Derby at the best of times but this ones fucking massive. If we somehow pull something out of our arses & get a result it could change our season. If as I suspect we play like we have been & get spanked its a long way back.

Can he play at the back?

Can he play at the back?

What's the betting that now the window has closed, and fans can't expect us to bring a replacement in, that it's confirmed he's out for 5 months?
 
Oh I'm such a cynic .

I seen it on the news last night, main story was Di Maria signs for £60m & in other news, they lost 4-0! Pissed me self

Besic a bit keen in training?

I'd rather Naisy played in goal than wide again!

I'm happy with this window so far & obviously pleased we've brought Rom & Barry in permanently. Can't help but think that the squads exactly the same size & quality as last year though with Besic the only real addition. Apart from him & Gerry being swapped for Atsu it's as was. (Galloway & Henen, if that ever happens, being earmarked for the U21's) We've not added the six or seven bodies Bobby said we needed at the start of the summer & if we don't get really lucky with injuries will be in trouble.
