Not the place for it but I definitely think he's a vile human being, so yeah I'd be insulted if someone referred to me as such. I generally don't think you grasp the weight and detriment of his character or appointment as president. *that's not to say I think it's a clever analogy, but I get the point he was trying to make...

Me neither, it seemed like purely defensive mistakes.

He's never really matured. Shows that in his play and tendency to get needless cards.

This match and the derby aside I don't think he's been that bad. I think he's got a future here and really just needs to add some bulk.

It did, we needed an outlet. Those shots from impossible distances/angles are just selfish. Especially after the effort from everyone else.

They said it wasn't right that Williams said something to Lukaku? He was right, he sees it better than anyone in that position.

Now that my heart rate has slowed, it's obvious that a draw was the obvious outcome of that match. Great performances and some abject ones. That's what you get.

He did, he basically said "I wish him well and we'll look after him when he gets to Finch Farm" He may be preoccupied by his own ambition but not to the point where he's disinterested in the well being of his colleagues/friends. Not even Davies mentioned Coleman on Instagram, so there's really nothing in it.

Yeah the price is the sticking point but you can't say he hasn't performed when called upon. He's aware we play a single striker down the middle yet still wants to be apart of things.

If he puts on some muscle mass; the right balance in order to maintain his speed and athleticism, he'll be really dangerous. I'm sure the physio staff is thinking the same thing. He still looks very much adolescent in the upper body, but his legs are pretty much filled out. He has the desire to scrap but once he has the tools he'll be even better.

He is so much bigger than that. It's funny you mention it. I was looking him up and the info said that height, along with being 142lbs, which is hard to believe. I'm 5'10" and roughly 160lbs. so I see his combo being a little counterintuitive. When you look at photos with him and Barkley celebrating you can see they're roughly the same height. Google tells me Barkley is 6'2". I think DCL's info is just old via Wikipedia or something because he's certainly taller and heavier than those numbers. I'm excited for his future, he's impressed me thus far. Especially considering he came here in August.

I agree. And for what it's worth, Rom is huge. For such a physically imposing athlete to move at the speed he does is impressive. The second goal after latching on to the stray back pass; I watched that step over a few times. He's made it his own and I love his confidence in 1 v 1 situations. His strong mentality is key to his play. I used to be frustrated that I wasn't a fan of our striker; he just didn't play in a style I enjoyed. That has changed over the last two seasons, but especially this one. It's a majestic sight seeing him in full stride around the half way line, and even from there having the fans rise in anticipation of a goal. That's awesome. I'm just gonna enjoy it and leave this thread alone for a while, haha.

Always a good point of reference: http://www.gettyimages.com/photos/everton-fc?excludenudity=false&family=editorial&phrase=everton%20fc&sort=best Shirt to the fans doesn't look like a goodbye to me, it looks like a sorry, of sorts.

Seriously

Good on Rom for wearing them down. Maguire and Co. marked him close, but Rom kept at it all match.

Who just won that bet?!

Err, yeah, Lookman should be in there...

Agreed

I would like to see Barry in a coaching role.

Aye

Coleman sure is aloof sometimes...

One, I believe.

Nervous play; we needed that break. I really like the look of Dom. He's a technical player.

I understand the perspective for sure. As a supporter I never assumed this transition would be lightning quick. But then that's the difference between playing and being a fan obviously. His career being only a moment in a long view spectrum for me. It'd be great if he wanted to be apart of a club that I believe does have the ambition he speaks of, but if he doesn't it's no matter to me. Mostly when I speak of timing I'm referring to the comments coinciding with our good form. For what it's worth, everyone seems all good: http://www.gettyimages.com/photos/everton-fc?excludenudity=false&family=editorial&phrase=everton%20fc&sort=best I check that weekly because it seems like a nice behind the scenes glimpse.
