Is this sarcasm? Because he hasn't really been playing for them has he?

I may be wrong on that like because I obviously don't pay much attention to them.

Just a touch

Brilliant, he’s been brilliant at Villa and would be a great asset here.

Just out luck that Onana dropped his clusters against Galatasaray yesterday and not against us on Sunday.

Was going to say exactly the same !

copied form the response to Andy Burnhams letter
 

Instead, the letter argues, the league’s recommendation on a possible sanction (believed to be 12 points in total) was a one-off calculation based on the known elements of the case, and formed part of a standard process.

So a one off calculation indicates to me they are making  things up as they go along.

I thought he was decent rather than average, did an OK job, but nowhere near Bainesy levels I agree.

yep average, he’s was good going forward but poor as a defender, atm I’d say the situation is reversed with Miko, who do expect to continue to improve.

100% we crumbled under the home pressure today, we need to get back to winning ways at home. 
The crowd were incredible at the start, possibly overawed some of the players, plus a killer goal so early.

Everton 2 Utd 0

Tomorrow is the start of our rise above the unjust number of points deduction, we need to accept that it may not change and not rely on any reduction, if they are reduced it must be seen as a bonus, we must not at any point think a reduction will be the way out.

Given the likely ferocity of the fans and added determination of manager and players this weekend, I'm changing my prediction.

Everton 5-0 United
DC-L

The idiots running the PL, minus 1,000.

I’m tempted to join you on that, but as ever I’ll hold back until the teams announced.

I’m not feeling  too positive that the points deduction  will be reduced, and I’m hoping that Dyche is saying the same to the squad, and psychologically preparing them for the need to win the points that we need to stay up this season and put this behind us, if they do get reduced it will be great, but let’s not bank on it knowing how wishy washy the PL are.

3 point sit will be after todays farcical goings on, the boys will be up for it, as will the old lady.

Farcical handling of the whole situation by the PL, from memory no other PL club has had points deducted, never mind mid season.

Id have been worried if this had happened 12 months ago, now I think it will drive the players on even more, maybe Europe will be a stretch this season !

I enjoy talking about shoes. I have too many trainers (so my wife says) (and my mum) (and my sister) (and my dad). 

So it’s a family thing then if your says your mum, dad and sister

Can we get away from the whole class issue, I come on here to discuss and read about football, and really don’t want to hear about other views of class status, shoes or their job, even less about the registration of the car FFS.

he looks stronger, more bite about him and maybe - just maybe not playing behind Demarai gray is a good thing. 

Gray never played a pass to Myko, it must have been incredibly demoralising bombing down the line and never to have a ball played to you.

now he has the engine to get up and down the line for 90 minutes and not hold back because of tiredness. 

I think he’s happier to do it knowing he will get the ball when the pass is on.

Myko, scored and an assist for Doucs, oh and his defending is ok also

At this rate it won’t matter if they take 12 points of us.

This result feels like a rebalancing of the Fulham, Luton and wolves games.

Roll on next week.

One out of three maybe , but not all three, we’re due another two similar smash and grabs in my book.

Palace 0 Everton 2

Can't remember who asked but apologies for the delay 

It was me, thanks for doing it.

Ive gone for Myko, probably the most improved player this season, very Lyle seems to be getting past him. Branthwaite and DCL close runners up for me.

Has anyone here on TT stopped going the match due to style of play?

I haven’t, but I must admit that at the end of my first season as an ST holder I was having second thoughts on renewing again after the upcoming season as I really hadn’t enjoyed watching every game. My mood changed once gravy chops left, and I’ve never had second thoughts since, I’ve been mighty pissed off many times but always know I’ll be back next game.

At the moment knowing we are having to rebuild and avoid repeating the last two season I can handle low possession and do enjoy the counter attack style, a couple of stylish possession goals would be nice, if only to show we are capable.

Covid has really hit him.

I think your right, he’s lost that burst of pace he had, which was his key asset, his passing was never very good imo, always looking sideways or backwards. It would be great if he could improve that side of his game.

Like you I had Covid again a few weeks back, still have a slight cough and my body temperature control is all over the place, that’s 2 positives and 4 jabs, I’d hate to think how I would be without the jabs.

Can someone do this please, I don’t know how to 

Onana reported as having tight calf.

Gana needs to step up today
