  1. We're level on points, right now, with Liverpool - who are being trashed by Villa. Their defence is more shaky than ours right now.
  2. Don't understand the votes for Mirallas. Soft goal, didn't always track back, and was caught napping a couple of times. Lukaku without doubt for me.
  3. The winner this week is Paddock, who scored 6 points by predicting the correct score and identifying Mirallas as a goalscorer. For the season as a whole, mogsy has taken the lead. The three "if only" players, with the highest number of points per prediction - and who might be in the lead "if only" they'd predicted every game - are Aiden Lewis, Brett Angel, and MiguelCotto. Congrats all round, and a solid win for Everton.
  4. Because we have so many other games coming up. And his shot a moment ago was decent.
  5. We aren't winning this game. West Brom are losing it.
  6. Why do we stand still when we think there's a foul or an offside? Play to the whistle; rather fundamental.
  7. Disagree about Lukaku. He's showing real effort and commitment and has created more than one half-chance. The disappointments for me are Mirallas and Naismith. We need to take charge of this game, and it's time for McCarthy to stamp his presence on it. It would be good to see Atsu come on at the hour mark.
  8. The only comments the commentators can make at the end of the half? Stones should have had a penalty against him and Naismith should have been booked. Nothing about Lukaku's great goal.
  9. Lukaku MOTM so far. Impressive game from him.
  10. It's pretty clear from his comments, and his accent, which team he is supporting.
  11. All credit to West Brom's tactics. They are clearly under orders to put pressure on our defence, and it seems to be throwing us off balance. Too much hoofing the ball.
  12. Mirallas not in such good form right now. Now watch him score a screamer!
  13. What a stupid foul by Jagielka.
  14. Wow - great start. Great goal.
  15. Plays for about 30 minutes, scores a goal, and then out injured. Seen all I need to see - he's crap.
  16. City are up at Arsenal. I know it's early in the season, but I can see it being a two horse race this year.
  17. Come on, Scotland! Show the world that the Celtic people will no longer be bullied by politicians and civil servants in England. I have to say that you can smell the panic in London from here. So what will happen to my passport once Scotland becomes independent? Will I be a citizen of the Slightly United Kingdom (SUK), the DisUnited Kingdom (DUK), or the Formerly United Kingdom? Will the queen need a passport and visa to visit Balmoral? Does that mean we Cornish can demand the same of Prince Charles when he tries to cross the Tamar? Will the Duke of Edinburgh become the Duke of Shepherd's Bush? It's going to be rather entertaining.
  18. Because there's a risk that he may not pan out. If that happens, he becomes an Olympiakos player. Monaco were, it seems, not willing to take back someone who may or may not succeed. It's a win-win-win deal. Monaco want rid of a player whose attitude is too big for his boots: Win for them. Everton want the chance to turn him around. One year loan to see whether this happens. If he does well, buy him; if he fails, let him return: Win for us. Olympiakos stand to make a profit if Everton keep him and to get the second chance at turning him around if not: Win for them.
  19. In fact, I got it completely wrong, didn't I? Not guilty of murder, and the victim's family are protesting.
  20. Id be surprised to see the back four change. Stones and Alcaraz may be brought in for European games though.
