SimonButtle reacted in Summer Transfer Window
Not impressed with the window.
Brought only two players in.
Over spent massively on Lukaku.
Shite.

SimonButtle reacted to Matt in Pre Season: SC Paderborn 07
Nothing to do with bodies in my opinion, this is all down to crappy mentality and discipline.

SimonButtle reacted to Matt in Apostolos Vellios
hope he works out for you. I've also defended him and saw a lot of potential in the lad. If he sorts his attitude out, he could be a decent player -
SimonButtle reacted to c1982 in Danny Welbeck
He's not a winger and that was the position he was expected to play (as he has been over and over again) - I'd like to see the positive runs through the middle. I've seen enough to believe he could be a very good centre forward for us.

SimonButtle reacted to Finn balor in Man of the Match v Manchester United
I thought Mccarthy was head and shoulders above everybody. The lad is a freak! breaking play up with his long stride time and time again.But when he gets the ball its just as good he wastes nothing. I was staggered by his work rate today. £12 million? he is worth double that easy. Coleman was excellent don't get me wrong but McCarthy is my new man crush .

SimonButtle reacted to NYBlue in A Champions League spot is still a real possibility
As much as it would pain me to see them win the title I'm taking the view that if it happens then it validates Martinez as the right manager for Everton. It will serve as proof in the methods that he is instilling in the club and serve as an indication to players that we are on the right track.
He was Fenway's first choice and he decieded to pass. If that is what Rogers can do then it is unlimited what Martinez can be done in years two and three of his project.

SimonButtle reacted to Matt in Gerard Deulofeu
I don't get the hype with Januzai, think he's overhyped after 1-2 decent performances but I think I'm missing something. -
SimonButtle reacted to Hafnia in A Champions League spot is still a real possibility
Still not over him Dunc???
Just for the record, Arsenal, and Man United got battered against the same Liverpool team. We drew 1-1 with Arsenal at the Emirates and were outstanding (nah forget that game, pick the one where we lost a completely flattering scoreline and could have actually won the game)....
You love and loyalty for your ex manager is diluting the credit that Martinez deserves for this season.
You go on to state that Roberto has had a good season on a negative net spend because he sold one of Moyes players??? Isn't that what Moyes did in finishing 4th when we sold Rooney for £28m?
So you can say Martinez has performed well with Moyes old players??? I disagree, relative to the time spent Martinez has been regularly using Barry, McCarthy, Lukaku, Deulofeu, Stones, Barkley, Oviedo - over 50% of a starting 11 that Moyes didn't use (yeah notice Barkley, Ovideo and Stones)
Meanwhile usding the same argument, our old manager has taken the champions, spent £70m, has inherited Januazaj and taken them to mid table... Genius.
Never mind those facts, you just keep on defending Moyes. BTW a united fans group have paid to have a plane fly a banner for "Moyes out" - not sure if you can stop them. Personally I think I want him there, it frees up a place for us to get in the top 4.

SimonButtle got a reaction from Sideliner in Ross Barkley
Don't really think he's ever tried to be a number 10 type anyway has he? seem's a different sort of player imo, more of a support man from midfield. Spraying the ball around is not his thing, he's not a Mata or Silva, it's something we are really lacking imo.

SimonButtle reacted to Hafnia in General Weekend/Midweek Football
Sherwood comes across as another pardew - just far too impressed with himself.

SimonButtle reacted to Quinn31 in Everton vs Cardiff
They'll be tough to break down for the first goal I reckon, but if we take a 1-0 lead, I bet the second will come much easier.

SimonButtle reacted to duncanmckenzieismagic in Who should we sell?
I dont think we have enough players left to even contrmplate selling anybody no matter who it is. I honestly cant remember our squad ever being so small
As it stands now we are in for a busy summer just to replace the loan players so I just cant see us letting anybody go

SimonButtle got a reaction from markjazzbassist in Our commercial dept and new kits
No way, Chang is a small unknown company, Epson is a large global company, no brainer for me. Nothing to do with money, just on exposure alone.

SimonButtle reacted to Louis in Our commercial dept and new kits
It can't be that big of a brand Simon, you've got it confused with a place in Surrey.

SimonButtle reacted to Steve_E in January
I don't think it's depth we lack, it's quality: actual, game-changing talent. Like Liverpool do have with Suarez and Sturridge and Coutinho to a lesser extent perhaps. A centre forward and a winger at least. After this game I'd say an upgrade on Barry might be a good idea too, though that might be a bit of a knee-jerk reaction given his fine season so far.

SimonButtle reacted to Romey 1878 in Leon Britton
That made me laugh far more than it should have done.

SimonButtle reacted in Everton's use of the loan market
Gareth Barry is actually the only integral part of our team that is a loanee. Lukaku has had a good start to the season but I think that he has become more of a liability because of his touch constantly giving the ball away.
The ball has got to stick with the striker that is a basic of centre forward play.

SimonButtle reacted to duncanmckenzieismagic in Lacina Traore
Im not going to get excited until he has passed the medical

SimonButtle got a reaction from MikeO in Difficult one this, but on balance feel the need to post it....

Good luck with everything
