Ankle injury he's been playing through.

Sell him and get a winger.

 

First read of that I though it said they were 2-0 up on grandad .

 

Finished 2-1 but it was the first leg of a cup game; not sure how seriously the Spaniards take it, was he in just because it was a "weakened" team?

It seemed that way, but he made the most of it.

Cheap? He gets top whack for his players, and won't compromise - hence why we had to pay them more for Pienaar than they paid us for him despite him barely featuring!

I was being sarcastic. And I meant cheap as in he always gets the best deal, not cheap as in he gets crappy talent: I think you scousers called it being skint or something.

Scored today for Sevilla. They are up 2-0 on granada

You do know who their chairman is, right?

Yeah that cheap bastard, hey maybe we can give them Pienaar back

The loan to buy for me. Maybe we can talk them down some to 4-5m if we take him on loan for the rest of the year.

Going all out for it, paying off their loans and then offering 20m pounds. They say it will still be rejected, I don't understand why since they could go belly up, but I guess they have their pride.

Being Basc, Bobby must have the contacts too - if he's still here.

You mean Catalan. Basque is Bilbao.

I'm gutted for the families and my deepest sympathies are with them.

 

I'm just confused as to why the editor continued to provoke and stir the hornets nest despite the clear threat of consequences?

 

Doesn't make what happened right, but surely he was taking a big risk for more people other than himself.

yes hafnia i understand your logic there. i think their line of thinking was "we aren't go to let extremists change our views and paper, otherwise we'll be changing it every other week when we offend someone new. either keep it real, or close up shop". satirical paper it was.

i don't think the players saying that is a bad thing at all. here in the states players do that all the time with the coaches. they work together, because they both just want to win.

non story for me, glad roberto listened and obliged and glad the players spoke up when they saw something to improve upon.

Patto you are crazy, Baines has 7 assists so far this year, his best half season total ever. He's playing well just a different style. He's not bombing and running the flanksX he's firecting play and orchestrating passes.

Premier league Facebook page just posted its attacking player leaders of the half year

Goals from outside the box

3 way tie for 3 goals between Mirallas, Downing, Toure, Eriksen.

We have a great player in Kevin.

Premier league Facebook page just posted the attacking player leaders of the half year.

Shooting accuracy (min 25 shots)

Lukaku 60%

Sterling 54%

Bony 54%

Well we have the most accurate shooter in the premier league. Love big rom and will back him to the end.

That's not a bad shout considering the money they have, but I believe they've already used 2 of 3 maximum slots. Unless Howard leaves this window, they'll get another DP before the season starts.

Lampard isn't going , he's one back. Orlando city might have 1 as well, heck LA Galaxy still have 1 since the Gerard deal isn't confirmed. I could see smaller teams go for him as well.

It would be best, he's not a bench guy, he wants to play.

Howard won't be going to MLS with their pay structure though, unless he's on DP contract. That doesn't usually happen for GKs. I just wonder where he would go if he did leave.

He would be a DP and could go nycfc he's from New Jersey perfect fit. They have plenty of money and DP spots. I think he would bring people to games, he would provide good goalkeeping.

This may sound silly but after watching lukaku's display, I would try him behing Naismith. His passing, his running with the ball, his shots from outside the box,all tells me that he wwould do more damage as a number ten. And Naismith would make those intelligent runs.

I've thought that before as well. Or go back to the 433 and have him out wide.

 

Would go someway to explain why he's been terrible and looked f*cked off last night.

 

What's the point in playing injured players? Seriously. Play Browning or a youth player, I don't care. Someone who's position is best suited to the area hit with injuries,.

Spot on. Play browning, he has to learn sometime.

Howard is too valuable to keep. And he wants to be playing not on the bench. To Americans he could go for a hefty sum, might as well take advantage of it.

2 difficult games coming up now but we will be up for it.. great atmosphere at Goodison again Thank You God bless

​rom posted that on his Facebook after the match. seems the positivity and confidence is coming back

Have to give some credit to McGeady for fighting hard to keep his balance and get between those 2 defenders to push the ball out to Oviedo. And credit to Oviedo for the solid ball into the box. Lukaku deserved that goal, and his two mates made it possiblle.

great point elston, oviedo has a nice game and did get the assist. i'd love to see him on the left wing above baines, he really works hard and puts in a shift, very naisy esque.

We'll get nowhere near that for Pienaar. We'd get around what Spurs paid us for him.

which was 5m wasn't it?

He played a couple of cracking through balls tonight, esp to Rom.

His passing on the whole was dynamic and drove us forward.

He made a couple of mistakes, but he is only human.

In 2 years time he will be our SG

exactly, thank you.

I agree we should cash in on McCarthy. £15-£20m is about right

honestly the way besic plays i'm very tempted.

missed the first half, but Barry?!

actually he had a good game. back to one touch passing and moving the ball forward, had one big snafu but otherwise defended decently (other than being slow). best game in a while but still don't get why besic only plays half games. sell mccarthy and play the lad, when he got up in that guys face and the guy tried to touch his face and he went off, loved it. his tenacity is what we desperately need.
