  1. I think the most we can take from this is that Joel may not as poor as many believe he is and that we will only know how good Pickford can be if he has a chance to play for a good team (or, alternatively, if he had a few more seasons under his belt, giving us a larger sample size). £30m (or whatever) is a big risk. I just hope that our scouting system has analyzed the shit out of Pickford's limited tapes to identify his good qualities and which things he will need to improve. Hopefully, we are going about this smartly and have a clear idea of how to make him into a keeper worthy of the price tag.
  2. I'm not saying these stats are necessarily meaningful (seeing as Pickford played in a team that was a shambles all over the pitch), but it's food for thought:
  3. Fingers-crossed! That certainly appears to be him. £5-6m or whatever seems a steal!
  4. That it was. I was more impressed with Cook today than I had been. Though, he seems like a bit of a bonehead.
  5. Beautiful sight there seeing Kenny, Dowell, DCL and Lookman climbing all over each other and celebrating as Everton teammates.
  6. Petulant shit like that from Venezuela's Peña is the fucking worst. I wouldn't be mad if Kenny put his foot through that twat's chest.
  7. Off night, I'd say. He's a very skilled player. Looked unplayable against Italy. I would be worried about his mentality though, for sure.
  8. Not a penalty in a million years. SAVE!!!
  9. This is true. But, he needs to get a hell of a lot stronger, make better runs (that aren't into the wings), become a better finisher, and play smarter and more in control.
  10. DCL has been such a work horse today. He's made Solanke look like a lazy sod.
  11. One of those players, you can tell, people hate to play against. Though I have a feeling that all he needs is for someone to twat him out there and he's done.
  12. I've really liked the look of this Walker-Peters kid throughout the tournament. Tomori looks solid as well.
  13. DCL with a great effort to get his goal!
  14. Tonight is the most joy I've perhaps ever experienced in politics.
  15. It's 6am eastern standard time in the US, I believe. That should make it 1pm (13:00) in Greece as Elston said.
  16. You obviously don't know what "as soon as the woman die opens" means...
  17. http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/sport/football/transfer-news/coventry-huddersfield-palace-everton-leicester-13150112?service=responsive Kid at Coventry who scored 25 for their u18s this season.
  18. I'd go ahead and replace him while playing hardball, saying he's under contract for two years, and holding out for more. I know that we won't handle it like that. But, it's been clear that he thinks he can do better than Everton. I don't blame him. It isn't that I don't think the world of Everton. I just think, because Lukaku has been nailed on as the next big thing since he was a child, he's had it in his head that he's destined for greatness on the world stage. He doesn't work as hard as he should. He doesn't seem to worry about the rest of the team. I don't think he's one for long-term projects. He wants to win. He wants to score. And, he wants glory. I think the biggest problem with Lukaku is that he believes he deserves these things. And, so he goes about achieving them very cheaply.
  19. If it is true that we're interested, I hope he and Gana are buddies and that he's selling Everton to him non-stop.
  20. https://m.tuttomercatoweb.com/serie-a/esclusiva-tmw-lazio-l-everton-piomba-su-keita-979643 Apparently we're interested in the Lazio winger, who's been linked with the shite and Juventus.
  21. Good boy, Ross! [pats Barkley on the head]
