    With Sandro out the door now as well I don’t think we can afford to let Lookman leave during this window. 
    He has to stay until January even if they meet our valuation imo.

    Didn’t Vlasic go out on loan?

    Feel like I'm in the minority who doesn't want to see him sold.

    Foook me, that was some read!
    Anyway, been meaning to come on for a few days to say I think he's going...and not being in the Cup squad tonight makes it more likely to me.
    I'm not into all the other stuff you guys have repeated numerous times on the previous pages. My only 'opinion' on that is how much social media has sucked us into a unhealthy pattern of judgement.
    BUT...what I really wanted to say is that I absolutely love how Everton are playing this. And I think we are doing Premiership clubs a huge potential favour with our stance. Foreign clubs are ripping us off for their players, and then expecting to get ours for knock down rates.
    We are levelling the playing field. You want our boy so bad? Pay for him. And we'll hold on until you do pay.
    I think we win either way.

    Fuck me, Paul went from sensible poster to first class bell end pretty quick. 
    Paul, stop complaining about receiving insults for your opinion only to give insults to others who disagree.

    Could have done that directly/in person Haf.  No need for that to play out on social media, and no reason for us to assume some slight/callous act on his behalf (not assuming you are).
    He may well prefer to move and that's his prerogative.  Although I think that the Leipzig post could very easily just be the kid taking an interest in a team and player he played for/with.  Not everyone's a mischievous Mastermind (footballers less likely than most), and he is still just a 20 year old kid.
    He's currently an Everton player, and welcome in my book.  If he goes, I assume we'll get a fair price and wish him good luck.  Then continue to cheer on Everton's upward trajectory.

    You are looking for an excuse to be offended. 
    “Footballer does insta post to ex team mate scandal” come on, the minute you saw it you were dying to be offended. 
    How about put yourself in the shoes of a lad his age and this back to every move you made at work. Was everything you done a means to an end? A way to wind people up to get things to happen? Or maybe it could be a young lad just doing whatever he sees as normal without worrying what some lads who don’t actually know him think?
    its nearly as fucking embarrassing as Koeman and his Christmas tree. 
    No wonder we get called bitter.

    Get fucked Nogs calling people sad we follow the club and it's players everyone has a right to fucked off with the lad or not 
    He's clearly wanted out since the day he came back here if you've no issue with the lad playing blatant (imo) games then so be it no problem whatever but don't throw insults around because it differs from your opinion

    I'd take 6th over a league Cup. Personally don't see any value in it. Winning it wouldn't feel like we've ended a 20 year drought. FA cup we should go all out for.

    It counts for a place in Europe and ends a trophy drought spanning more than twenty years but yeah you keep telling yourself it counts for nothing
    Are you honestly saying you would be happier finishing 7th, 6th or even 5th than winning a trophy?

    I say this every year, and I know plenty disagree, but this is a Mickey Mouse cup that counts for precisely nothing. The prize money is pitiful, so financially it's better we focus on finishing one position higher in the league. No top team bothers to field anything other than a second string team, hence it's not unusual to see small teams progress further than they should. Frankly, we shouldn't waste first team players on it but instead use it as training for fringe players.

    Two or three changes, no more imo. Sick of treating this competition like shite when fans still fork out to go and watch it.

    Bollocks again.
    All that 'most' on here do is defend a player who gives it his all. No one ever says he's faultless. No one ever says he never has a bad game. No one ever says he's a worldie, the best, blah blah blah...they just defend him against over the top inaccurate criticism.
    And just about everyone regards Schneiderlin as a talented individual who showed several times last season to lack heart when the team needed his talent.
    Which one would you take to war?

    And Richarlison can't use his wrong foot. Shocking that he's a pro eh.
    Over the top as always.

    You cannot put Gana in the same bracket as Schneiderlin when it comes to commitment. Schneiderlin proper ducked out when we needed him last season. Gana has his faults, but no way lacks commitment. The little bastard makes more tackles, interceptions, covers more ground, than most players in the team.
    If you critics just stick to the plain raw facts about his play, you might find more people willing to listen. And less just wanting to sssh you down.

    No. You'd take Gana because you know he'd watch your back and fight for you.
    Schneiderlin might be the more talented sniper, but what's the point if he runs away as soon as the heat is on? 
    I'm looking forward to what Silva gets from these two. Whatever is best for the team, that's all I'm interested in. If he can get inside Schneiderlins head and use Gana to his best, both will have a role to play for us this season.
