We need some freebies just to bulk up the squad. I wouldn't mind signing one or two players similar to Alcaraz just in-case we get bombarded with injuries. We're going to be fighting in both the Europa League & the Premier League so it'd be nice to have some players available for the FA & Capital One Cup for when everyone's tired.

So we're about to sign Lukaku for £24,000,000 along with David Henen if the rumours in the paper are accurate. Add to that the signings of Besic & Barry along with the contract extensions of Roberto Martinez, Seamus Coleman, Tony Hibbert and Ross Barkley. Who's tired of being POOR now? Take a bow Bill Kenwright, showing the absolute numpties who claim to support this club that they have absolutely no clue what they are talking about.

Heat map for the first half:

Brett Angel is the reason that I despise a lot of our fan-base. What a shower of clueless nob-jockeys. If you channeled all your crying and whinging into singing and shouting on a Saturday then Goodison would be blowing the windows out of people's windows in Perth. It's absolutely embarrassing that a club as big as Everton has so many idiots claiming to support it.

Bobby's just waiting for Argentina to be knocked out so we can confirm the Messi deal...

Made up. Whenever McCarthy played without Barry he looked like a rabbit in front of headlights so this signing will aid his development just as much as it'll aid the rest of the team. On a free this is a bargain - woohoo! . Del Piero is 39 and angling for a move to Celtic, I know it's not the same as moving to the Premier League but the saying rings true - ''If you can still do it...''

Twice in one page? They can't be that bad .

Decent squad player to have around if ever anything happens to Coleman. Browning doesn't seem ready for the first team yet so I'd rather keep Hibbo on low wages who has been tried and tested then an unknown who could be a nightmare. Wouldn't be surprised if he joins the coaching staff once his two years is up.

zoO.

@Matt: I like the look of your 5-3-2 but I'd swap Distin & Jagielka around. He works best when he's in the middle as a unit and I think we would pay the price when Jagielka has an off day in the centre of our defence.

Best fan has to the second worst thing I've ever seen. Second only to the 'Kick for the Caribbean' shite we had a few years back.

Howard Coleman Distin Stones Baines McCarthy Gibson Mirallas Pienaar Barkley Naismith Hopefully we can get Barry tied down to a contract sooner rather than later and can get a striker in before the end of the window. I'd have Stones in defence too as Jagielka has been piss poor in the World Cup, if Stones can get some experience under his belt then we have a young player ready for the future.

I love Everton but unfortunately we seem to have a fan-base full of absolute idiots. We're one step down from Newcastle, our fans will literally moan about anything and I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest to find out next week that there has been a petition against the colour of this years socks.

My main problem with the shirt is that it's got a Liverbird stuck at the top of it.

Surely not by much though?

The shirts are the same price as they always are (unfortunately). On the subject of numbers they are announced near the start of the season when most of the new players have arrived. Manchester United for example announced theirs last year on the 13th of August.

Bump . Chelsea: Shite: Stoke City: Toon: Palace: Villa: Sunderland: Swansea: Ham: ***COVER YOUR EYES*** Napoli:

Loving that new kit, don't see what all the fuss is about regarding the socks. Might be the first kit that I buy on launch day in recent memory. I've always been a bit of a Jeremy Kyle contestant and bought the shirts when they drop down to £20 a go.

I love the shirt. We're already 1-0 up. .

Umbro .

Avinalaff leaving was the best thing that's ever happened to this forum. That cretin was an obnoxious tool who deserves the one man forum he's now running.

Make sure you take a selfie for us DK.

It's rumoured that Paulo was never picked for Italy because he was/is a fascist.

Mikel Arteta - In his day was top notch. Sylvain Distin - Better than any French defender going to the World Cup. Paulo Di Canio - One of the best players to have played in the Premier League yet was over-looked by Italy.

Chris Smalling - Not even good enough to be classed as a footballer yet has been capped for England.
