In a more organised side and getting the ball in more dangerous positions, rather than having to carry from deep, he’ll come good, I think

Can imagine he’ll be another option for Howe to use to change games until he properly nurtures his potential. Important for Europe next season that we have much better rotation options available too. It’s half the reason that I half expect Shelvey to be around for another year

We could have got Stewart for that, what are we thinking?

With this kid, I think our shithousing and cuntfoolery might actually see one of our players get punched

Where’s this crack about Maxi leaving coming from? If someone says fucking Italian papers, I’m dishing out jaw looseners

Bielsa has turned Everton down so they’ve turned to Dyche. Two managers at the complete opposite ends of the spectrum so nice to see there’s a real plan in place of the type of man they want

Not sure Ashworth does much scouting tbh. I think, on the scouting side, he just probably works with Nickson on where they’re scouting, what positions Howe wants etc and then probably approaches the club when everyone has decided who we want

There’s no point in submitting a bid for a player who has no interest in joining so I think it’s common practice now to sound things out with agents first and then start negotiating with the club

Atmosphere should be bouncing and I think the players will react and score early. Though, I’m going to be there so expect frustration

I sometimes used to put them on and pretend I was in a submarine

I don’t see us as favourites and tbh, I wouldn’t want to call it, especially with both at full strength. Joelinton would/will have to have an outstanding game against Casemiro and someone like Saint-Maximin, in full tilt, would need to be the difference

Says it all that Notts Forest actually went for our chronically misfiring third choice striker instead

Worst thing is, that’s almost certainly an invented conversation as well

Where half of them are owned by someone else

If it’s true, and Edwards has managed to publish two contradictory articles in less than 24 hours, it sounds like Everton are hoping Chelsea will come along with their usual limo full of money

That whole first paragraph is him admitting that they’re small time and shit these days ffs Where do they come up with this?

It’s genuinely impressive that, every step further we get, they find a new way that we’ll actually lose in the end. Not in football terms, obviously, but in completely nebulous terms that only exist in a mackem’s psyche

You can tell that’s a mackem playing a part as he’s calling for someone’s head to be kicked in. Their response to literally anything that gets them wound up

Only one winner

The home game should be about taking it to them from the word go. There’s no chance they’ll press like they did tonight up here

Genuinely quite excited about adding Gordon’s pace and shithousery to that mix. They’ve put me in a good mood

Isak and ASM HAVE to be in from the start in the home game. We could be done by half time

They can fuck off with this next week, like. I want a professional 3-0

This was before they scored
