I'm also shocked, as I assumed Morgan was going to have his usual laze-fest around the pitch and inevitably cost us a goal
Glad to see I'm wrong (so far)

Well I hope he has feet.
DCL lovely finish.

It’s fast paced. This is what we’ve been asking for. Fast and positive.

Also, great touch from DCL into Bernard

No problem with Kean taking that shot on himself, even with DCL down the right. Loved the confidence

Can't wait to see Delph and Schneiderlin shit the bed in this one

I’m just so happy that we have the pace and forward thinking of Delph and Schneiderlin in the middle. I mean... really happy... fucking ecstatic!

Why are Kean and DCL in whiteface?

I mean sure, but there is a template in which a "mid-table" club treats the Europa League as a proper competition AND competes in the league. Wolves, for the most part, sent out their strongest starting XI's for their Europa fixtures and are also 6th in the league. Obviously a lot of this comes down to good fortune, as they have not been ravaged by injuries, but there is a world where one of the "non-big 6" clubs can field a strong starting XI in the Europa League and still be competitive in the EPL. 
We are not a club that can turn our noses up at the Europa League and play a weakened squad. Until we start showing consistency and improvement in the league, year in and year out, we have to treat the Europa League as a big deal. 
And here I am waxing poetically about us even being good enough to qualify for it. That's a future-us problem. As for the here and now, I say concentrate on solidifying a style of play under Carlo this season and really go after it in the summer into next season.

Going to echo this sentiment. I understand that Europa League football is potentially within touching distance, but I'd rather we hold on to what we have, let our squad get another 4 months in under Ancelotti and then start fresh this summer. 
If we were having a particularly strong season, or conversely struggling at the bottom end of the table, I would maybe be more enthused to see us spend this month. Ultimately though, I think this season will see us finish mid-table and thus I'd rather we wait to spend (and off-load the money-wasters in this squad) till the summer. 

I don’t think we should do anything big in this transfer window particularly in the midfield , we are relatively safe so let’s get our injured players back and see what we need in the summer in that area. 
If a world class striker becomes available or top class CB then go for them, but otherwise I would stick till the summer. 

That's insane.... if we had the money to buy any of those 3 players and they would come then we would and should buy them because they would improve our team.... 3 x world class players.  
Would Liverpool fans be Again st buying Richarlison? No! They know it would boil Everton fans piss for one. ..  and secondly he's a player who would improve the squad.

When I started following Everton we had a guy called Kevin Sheedy playing for us. Best left sided midfielder we've ever had imo, won two league titles, an FA Cup and European Cup Winners Cup with us. Played for Liverpool before us. 
The way I see it, not signing a player coz they have previously played for your local rivals is the very definition of a bitter small club mentality. If you want to be the best, petty shit like that shouldn't come remotely into who you do or don't sign. 
Back to Can - he would improve our midfield because he can has the athleticism to press properly, something I don't think any of our current lot do. Not sure about £30m though given his injury record. 

Which.....which game are you watching?

Gana had energy not steel, really don't see how a headless chicken would have helped if anything we'd have been even lower. 

That anyone would take them?

Funny, my girlfriend asked if I was making any money off this. Told her it was for pride. She wasn't impressed.

Wish I could agree with you on this, but my gut is telling me that yesterday's loss might have a larger, damaging effect to this team than just a single result. Similar to what happened after Origi's winner last year, it completely affected the team's psyche
