How long can exclusivity last though?

We haven't had the money to spend so I think Thelwell has made the best with what he had. Desperately need a proven goal scorer but DCL is not at the party right now (personally hope he has a moment and can kick on). We haven't managed to get points from opponents that we probably should have so time is running out especially with another points deduction hanging in the balance. Can only hope that the likes of Doucs, Branthwaite, Harrison can chip in as well as DCL and Beto.

He knows, and owned, that it's up to him and his coaches.

He also said that it was up to the players on the pitch to do their bit. Tarky was honest in his interview and looked genuinely fed up that they hadn't killed the game. 

Strange that his game has gone off so much recently especially the performances he was putting in when he was under so much pressure in his personal life. Would like to see him come good again.

Why couldn't Saudi GP have been later in the season as it depends on beginning of Ramadan starting?

DCL hasn’t scored in 19 not because the lack of opportunities but because of poor execution of his opportunities, and yet without doubt he is still our best forward because of what else he offers the team.  
Just a shame he’s not doing the most important bit by putting the ball in the net every now and then.  

This.

It's not about liking Ross. I was pissed off like everyone else at the time with him not signing for the initially agreed fee.

koeman was a fkn cock the way he went on and on about him.  It was confirmed that Barkley actually confronted him about it. Did he need a psychology course to actually realise that Barkley wasn't the type of player to respond well to verbal criticism to the media?

he didn't do this to get the best from Barkley, he did it cos he's a bully. He caused murder at Valencia, bullied Niasse, then when at Barcelona he did it again. I think he is jealous of footballers. 

blokes a bellend.

once a player makes the decision to move then that is usually that. 
 

 

With a little help from an agent who arguably has more between the ears.

Ricky hill, brian stein, paul Walsh, mick harford.

they've had some pretty decent players in fairness.

 

Malcolm Macdonald. Saw him play there when I lived near Luton.

It’s thrown me that the race will be on Saturday and not Sunday. 

Same the week after in Saudi. 

If he wants to be here, a big plus.

That makes sense.... either way I want 777 out the picture.  I heard Cahill is looking to front a consortium 

That would be massive.

He never let me, and if he did he would have been told to do one

Pure gold!!

My gut feeling is that there have always been others interested but that 777 offered the best terms for Moshiri, while other suitors were offering less favourable terms to Moshiri that would be better for the club.

Let's hope 777 get found out if they are charlatans but the long delay for a resolution is impacting our financial position. 

He doesn't read the room. No class.

Fact is we had the option to have Barkley on a free....  That was in our hands as a club.  

£30k a week he is on at Luton.  Ashley young £83k a week. 

But Barkley sat around Finch Farm to recover from injury then pissed off to Chelsea. Can't forgive that.

In my opinion, Beto isn't as bad as some think. We, as Evertonians, tend to be very quick to write players off.

Beto, like any player...and we've plenty of evidence of this...needs proper consistent game time.

 

I'd like to see him given the opportunity to start either with or without Dom. We really can't do any worse at the moment with the goals not coming.

These guys are literally just running around and kicking a ball on a field. It's really not that serious at the end of day. I'll never understand the people who take it to a next level of hate. 

Me neither but they can because they can feel big under of the anonymity of social media.

I was expecting a team that would go out, hit the ground running and be at least one up by half time. 

Big Amadou!

Gotta take what positive we can at this point. Don't recall who on the UK broadcast it was that mentioned we have matches in April and May coming up against teams near the bottom of the table. 

And we tend to slip on banana skins.

We look like we've had two games inside  week, not 9 days between matches. No urgency.

I'm getting fed up with Dom's failure to score.
