Everton hit with huge new stadium blow as statement casts doubt on club's future

Ultimately in this case you have a bloke in a studio looking at less than ample video footage and freeze frames deciding if a player (who appears to be looking at a football) can see the football. And then the bloke in the studio is saying it's CLEAR and obvious that he can't see the ball. And...

I hope Fosun sell us on to a better owner. Yes there will be the careful what you wish for brigade coming through. Careful what you wish for = more of the same/stagnation at best IMO With regards Dyche, surely he would have more to complain about than GON then?

Although this is all very frustrating for Fans and Coaches alike, I think it is good advice to "watch what you're saying". I've heard GON say (before these last 2 games) that the brief was to avoid the drop and Europe would be a fantastic achievement but was not really something they were...

The difference between GON and JL is that GON came in with his eyes open. JL, one feels, was fed a line. Both are self publicists. Most managers are, especially UK ones who receive favouritism from the media (think Moyes, Howe even Bruce, Warnock and Big Sam). Self publicism is not a flaw...

Before a ball was kicked this season, if someone had said to me we'd play a Middling Championship side at home in the Cup and be effectively outplayed, out fought and out thought and that we'd have 4 full backs finishing the game, one of whom would be our main (only) source of attack - I...

We need to suffocate them early with our superior midfield and get many set pieces. That would be the route to winning this one

I think we decided to target Burns wing with Netos pace. But Newcastle were on to that and their game plan was to cut out the supply to Neto.... which they did!

The biggest issue with Fraser isn't if he's good enough (albeit that has to be questioned) or if he will fall apart mentally (but he's his own character, not every 19 year old is Fabio Silva, they all have their own character). The biggest issue is the style of play - or put another way, what...

It should work on a percentage of the points they got when they breached. If it's set at say 15% instead of 6 points for those breaches, then a team who got 80 points would have a 12 point penalty. A team who got 40 points would get a 6 point penalty...and so on. It should be a sliding...

Both

Totally agree. That's our easiest route. Our last 6 games include..Man City, Arsenal, Liverpool, who will be all guns blazing by the looks of it, for obv reasons plus We also play Forest and Luton, who might well be fighting for their lives. Not many on the beach opponents there for us to play.

Not a chance, They should have won last night and squandered chances. Plus they've got Coady waiting in the wings should a steady hand need to steer the ship.

Villa sold Grealish. Spurs sold Kane. Which shows every player has their price - and importantly, every player has their own ambitions too. In both cases it appears that the clubs benefitted from the sales by selling their best players because:- 1) They got excellent prices for the sales 2)...
