gwi1890 Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Everton have recruited so poorly and wasted so Much over the years, squad already ageing and the players under 28 lack quality, we’ve spent big but at least we’ve built an academy, Everton have gambled on getting into Europe and now with the new stadium being built ran out fo money, I’d be worried if I was a Everton fan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HongKongVillan Posted November 28, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted November 28, 2021 Brentford used to be cool and plays the right kind of football. Instead now they become the new whinging Stoke of the Prem League. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herman22 Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Jansen complaining about Everton not putting the ball out when a Brentford player is down injured. Oh the irony! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Wow they've had to stop the Leicester game 15 minutes into the half to sweep clear the lines, surely that's a sign it's time to abandon, it's not slowing down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With who they have in charge they're basically having our McLeish season a decade on. Interesting when it all kicks off at Goodison like it did in that Bolton game, think they've got Liverpool in the next week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davkaus Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Man City come close to sending me to sleep. I'm sure the trophies take the edge off the tedium but I wouldn't want to watch it every week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Steve Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 5 hours ago, JPJCB said: It was the same with that “wonder” save against Leicester as well. If you actually look at the position of the ball, it’s not in the far corner. But ramsdale’s leap makes it look like a phenomenal save. It’s a combination of bad positioning plus good athleticism which makes him look like a worldie. The best keepers in the league (emi, alisson, ederson) get the job done with far less fuss cause their initial positioning is much better Yes, that's a fair point. Ramsdale puts in a few good performances and suddenly it's not a desperate Arsenal overpaying, but England's new #1 blah blah blah. Emi is still far superior.

OutByEaster? Posted November 28, 2021 Moderator Share Posted November 28, 2021 Carrick has actually picked a grown up Man Utd side with three actual midfielders - fair play to him. It's unfortunate that it's against Chelsea so when they get hammered it'll be written off as a bad experiment, but at least he's had the balls to pick a proper side.

Chelsea starting 11 dosen't actually look that amazing, Loftus Cheek starting in midfield for example. Some bench though....Mount, Lukaku, Pulisic and Havertz all on it.

villalad21 Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Fair play to Carrick. Absolutely the right decision to bench Ronaldo in big games where they are expected to be dominated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
