  1.  

    Think we might have got a mention, did our bit with sixteen and a half points.

     

    Hopefully our Europa reps will take it a bit more seriously next year or they'll (potentially) be shooting themselves in the foot.

     

    agreed mike, we did our part and got the farthest in europa so not on us. and it would be crazy if we lost that 4th spot, how are arsenal to qualify? :rofl:

  2. Its amazing how we DONT/AREN'T tapping into that commercial potential though. It's frightening.

    Spot on. After Howard's heroics in the World Cup you would have thought they'd put a couple American matches together to build off that, nothing.

     

    It's like whether the club is winning champs league or playing in league 1 they do the same things day in and out. Sad really.

  3. I'm suggesting nothing but Hafnia talking absolute bollocks. "If he adds goals and assists to his game he'd be worth £50m".

     

    Absolute tripe. The suggestion is comical, James McCarthy has not got the technical ability to be an all round box to box midfielder worth £50m and anyone who thinks otherwise is ABSOLUTELY clueless

     

    not sure who pissed in your cheerios mate, but life is for living man, have a beer and cheer up.

  4. . See Hafs latest post.

     

    They're not "bad" players. But they're not players who make the team exceptional... Uninspiring squad players - if you're looking to break the top four

     

    not sure if you realize this, but this is an everton forum. we don't have money, we don't have a sheik owning the club. how do we go about gettiing ronaldo messi and the lads on BK budget MC? who are the players you want? Who would you rather have than mccarthy and how would we afford them?

  5. Quite the opposite you fruitcake :)

     

    There are only two inspiring signings in those names you mention. Lukaku & Deulofeu.

     

    Lennon - over the hill.

    Besic - Unknown quantity doesn't fit in here.

    McCarthy - the most overrated £50m player I've ever seen.

     

    Key word being uninspiring. Martinez is good at that

     

    mccarthy was 12m honey, not sure where you got 50m. we'd get 20m minimum for him now so that proves he's been worth it, bad players don't increase in value. same with lennon, 6m when he arrived, now it's 8-12m being bandied about. besic not a bad signing since he was so cheap, unknown but that's not bad.

  6. No logic to it at all; at thirty-two he's going to be looking for a last big pay-day you'd have thought and he won't get it from us. We're supposed to be bringing the squad age down, not raising it. I call bullshit.

     

    agreed. the only convoluted thing i can come up with is mccarthy is off and besic isn't ready yet so raul is a stop gap for a year or so to play there until besic is ready. that's all i can come up with and it's pretty out there i admit.

  7. My fellow Americans. The only U.S. Coach to manage a top division European side is bob Bradley currently at stabaek in Norway. Great news. They are 2nd place and 3 points off top place. 1st get champs league qualifying and 2nd and 3rd get Europa qualifying. I'm following close and hope he's able to be the first American manager to get European qualification. Maybe he will get a bigger gig from it, I certainly hope so. He's a great manager and is constantly evolving in tactics.
