Coleman has lost pace imo

Pogba is such a pussy

Can't stand Pogba.  Dickhead run up, misses his pen and is lucky the rebound falls for him, so he starts preening like he's the fucking boz boz.

Him and his mate Lukaku are absolute pricks

More Barcelona players!

Personally I think he’s quality but I can see how he could  divide opinion

hes never going to create goals for himself like a Bernard or Richarlison.

He is a finisher and needs the right service to thrive.  Without the service he looks very ordinary but imo he knows where Tim he onion bag is

Shit game but a manager that brings attacking subs on and tries to win a game

Has Walcott touched the ball yet?

Joe Max Moore - so bad a defender was chosen to play up too instead of him (Steve Watson)

I just think it's a daft question (sorry @jofanon). How do you compare Pickford to Richarlison for example? Apples v oranges.

Does that make Ballon d'Or daft then?

IMO its quite easy to assess relative strengths.  If Messi was in the side, would it be too difficult to say he's better than Pickford?

Imo, in order:

1.Richarlison

2. Pickford

3.  Sig / Walcott

Don't care if he hasn't scored yet - love him.  Ace player

He's a big lad too. Not a typical Brazilian in the way he works and gets up for headers etc

I love the fact he has a bit of mongrel - I'm not excusing his actions though

I think he looks a proper bargain! 

Its exciting to think some of the players on the bench are upgrades on what is currently starting

Not sure where Gomes/Bernard would play though

Just because it’s fun...

usmanov buys the 50.1% share option and invests 250m into players

who do you get?

Being a football genius I vote

Davy Klaasen and a Michael Keane clone

.....................Pickford.....................

Coleman....Mina....Zouma(?)....Digne

........................Gana....................

...... Sigurdsson........Bernard...............

Walcott..........Tosun..........Richarlison

So I think our first 11 is going to look like this dependent on Zouma (which sounds like its done).

World class goal keeper
Pace throughout that backline
Power and aerial ability at center back
A dead ball specialist
A lock picker, play maker
A defensive mid specialist
Tons of pace on the flanks
A great finisher in the middle

A very well rounded, balanced 11

McCarthy, Baines, Lookman, Schneiderlin, DCL, Niasse, Besic, Keane, Holgate, Bolaisie, Davies - represent a decent bench

He's been played as an attacking mid many a time also on the left wing so I could see him being used as our creative outlet and on the inside left as Jofanon has him 

I can see him being used as a Silva type he has great pace and footwork I think he'll do very well there if that's Marco's plan

Its very attacking.   Too much so?  A bit different from Fat Sam!

                 Pickford

Coleman  Mina   Lascelles  Digne

                    Gana

           Siggy         Bernard

Walcott                          Richarlison

                    Tosun

Should have kept Mori, we would have had a decent looking defence, I would also play Besic before Schneiderlin.  Put a bit more bite in the midfield.

Just to confirm...this team is based on rumours rather than the one I’d like us to play.

id rather Besic over Morgan too.

I hate to be Debbie Downer....but weren’t we after pace?

                  Pickford

Coleman  Mina   Holgate  Digne

                      Gana

          Schneiderlin         Siggy 

Walcott                               Richarlison

                        Tosun 

Latest version based on rumours

                   Pickford

Coleman  Mina   Lascelles  Digne

                      Ndiaye

          Doucoure            Siggy 

Walcott                               Richarlison

                        Tosun 

Don't just sell him.  Part ex could be quite effective in this particularly scenario

Would have been great if our elders gave us a leaflet with all the hazards of becoming an Evertonian from a very young age or sat us down and gave us "that talk" but an Everton one instead..... Frustratingly at times (most) were born with it in us  

I chose it.  I'm a southerner born to a Gooner.

Been my club since I was 4-5 and I'm now 40.  Long time to be in pain!

Why do we have to buy players sequentially?  It feels like we cant move forwards with other players until Richarlison is done, then Dinge, then ....
