I'd subscribe to this as long as you, Gemmill, are the Everton update correspondent,

Got you. Looked at the local Paramount Plus and was deflated or though you'd mistaken the Asian Champions League. Maybe Newcastle can be the exchange team for the Saudi club on that joins the European Champs League.

Fuck off! I thought Stan had the CL rights here now?

Gloomy, you're right about Isak will be one of the best in a few years but he's still like Henry was when he was young, unfinished and not a natural striker, more a CF - if you don't know the difference then we may as well stop discussing now. Wilson is a pure striker, we have shown in the last couple of games we need that. Miggy's three glaring misses are what killed us against the bin dippers, not the unlucky two. We need more than what we have had recently, against the better teams, you just need that bit extra and with two quick hard working inverted wingers, you just don't get that. Also I want to drop this in from the Callum Wilson thread, that was posted by @acrossthepond in April this year (so Wilson now has quite a few more), it shows hoe important Wilson is as a starter, not sub.

It was a failure because our CF wasn't in the game and the chances fell to players who couldn't finish their dinner. Miggy's lack of finish is well documented, Isak was isolated for all of the game bar the red card moment. You are wrong about Isak being better through the middle, he carved it up last season on the left, Gordon doesn't deserve to be dropped on current form, so get him on the right.

Well as @RobinRobin will explain to you, that high instep would have you as an outcast in Hobbiton. Gazza, you know you can buy extra wide steel cap boots? https://tbwsafety.com.au/search-by-brand/wide-load/wide-load-690bz-15cm-6-black-steel-toe-zip-lace-up-boot.html Even your high arched, hobbit foot should fit in those.

Sorry but that is rubbish, if TAA had gone for that blatant second yellow, the game would have changed then and it is unlikely VVD would have fouled Isak. As others have said the subs caused the loss, Isak also looked lost while he was on the pitch. Howe needs to be braver and play Wilson up top and find a way to get Isak into the team, maybe play him instead of Miggy on the right but just having inverted winger who can run with the ball is making our attack predictable.

I just got 14/1 for Everton to finish the top half, guaranteed now Scotty boy has spaffed his Everton relegation load. -
Nice work Rob and congrats on skipping straight to the deed. BTW I use to buy shirts like that from charity shops back in the 80s when the 60s garage punk thing was big. The Lime Spiders or the Scientists can't be wrong!

I cannot see how UEFA will be able to get a Saudi wild card through, there would have to be a majority support from the National associations and honestly there is nothing in it for them or the clubs involved with the Champions League. Copa America is different, it's a tournament held over a number of weeks and is a competition of national teams, no different to a WC or Confederation Cup. BTW Australia was meant to play the year of the pandemic but pulled the plug on that once the plague took hold. The CL is held over 4/5's of a season. To include team(s) from another continent means more travel costs and no additional revenue to UEFA, the middle east already pays a small fortune for the TV rights. Plus how could you include the ASL winners in Pot 1, the rankings would be a joke. @Diego21 I don't doubt you but I just have to question why it would make it past being laughed out of the room. Australia compete in the EUro Song Contest, so anything is possible.
