it's the same over here mike. but the politicians don't get involved it's just the media. and the teams will never sign those players because their marketing and PR departments don't want to deal with all the bad press involved. sad really.

Tony Pulis……Just kidding! i would never want moyes jr here. Definitely need 2 wingers. Loan or something, just get somebody.

sadly we can't. mirallas i've given up on (transfer wise), stones too (he'll leave one day), but ross barkley is really something. and if we sell him it's gonna break my heart.

i think he needs to go back and look and see what was successful last season. last season was a combo of moyes and martinez tactics, sometimes we went direct, sometimes we played out the back, it wasn't cut and dry always play out the back. in addition he changed our formation up, we did 433 sometimes (arsenal) and it really did well. we even played 3 at the back. youngsters were given a chance, everyone was loaned out. subs made a difference and weren't always conventional. injuries were standard level. this season its' 4231, best players play no matter what position, no youngsters get a chance and aren't even loaned (except kennedy and pennington). always pass from the back. their whole side could be in our third and romelu could be wide open but pass out the back. subs are far and few between, most games we don't even use all 3 (even though we have the deepest squad ever) and are ill timed. injuries have become an epidemic. its as if there is sometime wrong with the training regimen. i hope he goes back to last seasons tapes and corrects these issues. i've always backed roberto and still will, i think he's a great manager, but sometimes wrong and he's not changing it and i'm getting worried. he wasn't like this last year.

Distin, I've been on him this season and I just wasn't ok with his performance today. Stones back, or Browning, Galloway, Jimmy the Kit man. Anyone.

Besic, Barkley close second.

done with the match, turned it off. not going to let this shit team ruin my day.

and we are sick of hearing it, please stop.

yeah didn't mean it as a pienaar bash, just that he slows the ball down THAT much, like stevie for reference.

still an everton player nonetheless and deserves our backing.

agreed. barry is slow, slows down the pace (just like pienaar).

better play there, nice try eto'o, ross looking great again with the driving runs. i love that guy

i guess they got the goal anyways. shit defending and where was Howard?

penalty for me. jags kicked him. glad we got away with that.

didn't realize how much barry slows the pace down. ross in the role had that ball moving in transition very fast. barry takes a couple touches and the defense has time to get it together.

Wow that's 4 major players. We really need the win.

Interesting, thank you.

I live in new orleans, great city if you like spicy fried food (creole cuisine) and music. tons and tons of great music here at tiny bars for cheap. lot of culture and art, and extremely affordable. high crime and not the cleanest place in the world though. Hamburg was nice, red light district was a hoot. nice city i had fun there.

Southampton 1 - 3 Everton Barkley

no thanks, i'd rather be a club with integrity than some plastic middle eastern sheik owned shill. honestly i don't know if i could follow the club anymore. i'm sure ole pad will have a field day with this, but i just can't support that. not honest and not right. BK is a fan and i love that. they want to buy spurs anyways. side note: how would spurs with a large jewish fan base feel about being owned by arabs? i just don't think it would work.

i would love gerry back. howard/new goalie coleman stones jags baines mccarthy barkley duelofeu naismith mirallas lukaku that just looks really good. i have a feeling playing eto'o with him would be really nice too, samuel would give him some great passes.

made up for naisy. hard worker and puts the ball in the net, here's to many more years of great football!

not going to argue with that one bit. just that pienaar and ossie and even mirallas all allow baines to work with them and run the flank and they cut inside. mcgeady acts like the flank is his birthright. i'd like to see him work better with seamus and not just hog the lane.

we have 2 fantastic attacking fullbacks, lets stick with that. mirallas is a proper winger but he can cut inside and make things happen. kev also has learned to work better with baines and not be running over each other, so i'm fine with that. mcgeady no thank you, he removes seamus completely. we need a pienaar-esque player on that side, someone who will let coleman bomb on and they will cut inside and look to link up and create. i like naisy in the 9, he and romelu work well together and he's a hard worker.

great news, Kev has been terrific.
