    You make it sound as if it the league OR league cup and we simply can't try and do well in both. We are a big enough club with a big enough squad to be competative in both and then the FA cup in the New Year. Cup runs are more likley to have a positive affect on league form. 
    I don't thing winning round after round and progressing in any domestic cup competition harms league form, winning breads winning. Rounds of league cup, don't lead to fixture list congestion. Especially for clubs who don't have any european football. If anything its good to have games that allow fring player to get out for 90min. 
    I can understand your arguremnet if we had European football, and european and league games taking a greater priority over the league cup, but we don't have that.
    I really dont think winning the league cup would mean we are more likley to finishes aroind 11th in the league- thats just doom mungering. I actually think it would more like have the opposite effect and give the team a massive 'winning mentality' boost around march time, europa spot in the bag, pressure off a little, lets go for CL qualification type of attitude.
    I dont buy the injury arguement. Can't wrap players in cotton wool, you just have to roll with the punches on this front in competative football. You can get injured in training.

    Haiku reacted to Hafnia in Salford City (cup) Wednesday 16/9/20   
    Lads ... Just wanna remind you.   We played a dogshit level of football against a side consisting of players who were released from clubs at 14 and played for sides like Rhyl last year..... So I'm finding it difficult to say Tom Davies played well or that Gylfi was man of the match. If was shite 
    The attitude of Niels and Gordon were the only pluses for me.  Both have a future if they steer clear of half the lads they played alongside.

    He's a real gem. I wish he would stay with us for years to come.

    Tough guy and good with the feet. Him and Allan will be bossing the midfield I reckon with James creating chances out of nowhere. Very exited about the season ahead. I hope luck will be on our side too.

    We could, but it lies in Anchelotti's hands whether we should call him The Professor.

    Has announced his retirement from football today. What a player and what a career he had. I'd give anything to have a Barry in our midfield right now.

    Good lad. I hope it will work out for him this season and proves he got what it takes to play for Everton.

    he tore up the league at real sociedad on a 2 year loan, so much so that they cut it short and he's come back now.  great player there.

    Haiku got a reaction from Bailey in Jean-Philippe Gbamin   
    Oviedo, Coleman and Gomes injuries were impact fractures. Gbamin's injuries tend to be chronic and repetitive, as are most muscle and tendon injuries. There's a high chance he will get more of them, which is a concern. Also from medical understanding muscle injuries impair the function of the muscle so that it can never recover to the state it was before.

    Makes me sad and angry that this “issue” is still around. The sooner people refer to people as people rather than anything else, the better.

    Haiku reacted to RuffRob in Ciro Immobile   
    think best leave him where he is - apparently couldn't hack the faster pace in Germany and then did even worst in Spain - as good as he is in Italy it doesn't sounds like he travels well. As a current challenger for this seasons European golden boot we would have to be paying significant transfer fee and big wages for him this summer - if he did flop on his travels again, next summer we would be stuck with a 31 year old on massive wages. Even though we have been offloading some, we still have too many dead weight players on massive wages that nobody is going to buy from us. Do we really want to risk adding another. 
    The problem with a lot of the signings we have been making since Moshiri has arrived is that we want to run before we can actually walk. Do we really have the basics of a team to make best use of a prolific goal scorer in the later part of his career? Our current strikers have lived on scrapes and in some games see very little of the ball. How would Immobile perform in our current team . We need to have a team capable of consistently creating to before we spend a load of money and wages on a player looking for his last big contract!!! money would have be the only motivation for him to come to us, the 12th placed team in the Premier league.

    That is simply a speculation which is most certainly false. Coronaviruses are not mutating as rapidly as influenza. They are known since 1960's and God knows since how long they exist and how many times they jumped on a human population in the past. There is a reason coronaviruses haven't become seasonal so far, and for the same reason chances are Covid-19 won't become seasonal either.

    Guys, you better prepare to stay at home for the rest of the year at least. This thing is not going to disappear in a few weeks.
