Zoo 2.0 got a reaction from Shukes in 2019/20 Pre-season.
I am watching on the official site (STH's get the game streamed) and they've been saying that there were technical difficulties leading up to the match - the official broadcast went live a minute and a half late so keep trying if the YouTube links are dead, chances are they are playing catch up and behind due to the official stream being poor.
@Shukes @Matt
We've just scored too, but ruled out for offside! Not sure what the reasoning was as it looked onside, pretty much all Everton too in the opening 15 minutes. André Gomes and Morgan Schneiderlin with Tom Davies at the top of a midfield triangle - Nathan Broadhead getting a lot of the ball on the left wing which is good to see.
Not seeing much of Kevin Mirallas although he has been wedged as a makeshift right-back. Despite putting in the effort there's nothing up top from Oumar Niasse who appears to be a second behind to each ball, hardly influencing the game at all.

Having a footballer up front and not some fella with a lovely smile might help with that.

Holgate has made a couple of really solid tackles so far.

Zoo 2.0 reacted to MikeO in General Weekend/Midweek Football
Europa League needs looking at (as does CL); starting this early with so many entrants is absurd; playing today are such giants as B36 Tórshavn, RoPS Rovaniemi, Pyunik, Shkupi, Ordabasy, Torpedo Kutaisi, Teuta Durrës, Alashkert, Petrocub-Hincesti, Laci, Trans, Flora, Radnicki Nis, KuPS Kuopi, FC Vitebsk, and Sabail; I could go on but those are just a few that I've never heard of in fifty years of following European competitions.
I think it needs complete restructuring, maybe a lower level trophy for sides like this to actually compete in. Personally, that aside, I'd like it to go back to the way it was, Champions League (European Cup) competed for by Champions only, as the name suggests (I realise you can't put the genie back in the bottle so no chance of it ever happening); Cup Winners' Cup reinstated for Cup Winners and the third tier which has been known as Inter-Cities Fairs Cup/UEFA/Europa over the years drastically streamlined.
Pissing into the wind on this I know but just my musings.

Zoo 2.0 reacted to Hafnia in Fabian Delph
You just chat shit mate.... no wonder stats disgust you when they prove you chat shit.
You are so heavily invested in protecting your ego by slating Gana and looking for any justification to do so has become a joke.
It's like watching a liar try and wriggle out of stuff by telling more lies.
Vidic was a centre half, maldini a full back, Alonso a deep lying midfielder.....
Gana isn't any of them.... his role is to press and hunt the ball. If he wasn't doing the job he was told to do he wouldn't get picked. Do you honestly think his last 3 managers at Everton told him to "don't tackle, tackling means you have made a mistake"..... maybe Marco Silva isn't the right man to manage us.... maybe it should be you. Maybe you should be managing PSG instead of Tuchel... clearly he's one of these clowns who thinks Gana is a good player and £30m should be spent on a 30 year old......
Give it up lad. It's beyond sad now.

Zoo 2.0 reacted to pete0 in Kevin Mirallas
We threatened his position if he never signed a new contract, he signed and bugged us up only to then first game of the season find two strikers playing over him on the wings, the inexperienced DCL and the useless Sandro.
He's a frustrating player but the club haven't treated him right since the takeover. (Moyes seemed the only one who knew how to manage him). Good luck to him.
Good on Brands trimming the wage bill though, hopefully one out, one in.

Do you not have a life? Who puts this crap into excel to try to prove a point to people who will never ever agree with you?
Today i’ve gone from shock to pity.

Zoo 2.0 reacted to StevO in The Kit Supplier Thread
Not trying to defend Umbro but I don’t recall them saying the keepers kit would be unique, just the home kit, which it is.

Zoo 2.0 reacted to Matt in The Kit Supplier Thread
I bet there’s quite a few ready to eat their words. It’s smart, unique and we’re being showed some of the inside details. Pretty much the opposite of boring a generic. Well played Umbro

Zoo 2.0 got a reaction from plaidharper in Summer Transfer Window
You do realise that Arsenal, Brighton, Crystal Palace, Leicester, Liverpool, Manchester City, Newcastle, Sheffield United, Spurs and Watford haven't made signings either? Ironically, we are one of the teams that have signed a player so far this summer so I'm confused as to how with all of this information at hand predictions are being made about the window being ''last minute'' and criticisms of Brands are coming to the front for not acting fast enough in the market.
No South Americans will be signed as the Copa America is currently underway. It is incredibly unlikely that national teams will allow players to skip training to discuss contracts and transfer fees with domestic clubs which is fully understandable. We've also had the Nations League taking place recently so anyone taking part in that (basically the best players from the top leagues of England, Portugal and the Netherlands) will now be on holiday and thus not available for negotiation. As an example, look at Matthijs De Ligt who is absolutely nailed on to leave Ajax this summer but as of today hasn't moved anywhere.
If the rumours are true, André Gomes is set to sign within the next few days which will take our signings up to two for the summer - not bad when you consider all of the above. If we are sitting with just two signings come August then by all means throw some criticism at Brands, Moshiri and the rest but at the moment I think it's borderline bonkers to be panicking about our summer business. Take a deep breath!

We won't get a player like him, let's face it he could go to any of the big clubs.
