It is actually very hard and it's a philosophy that catches up with you soon enough. If you sell your best players every summer, it only takes one bad transfer window to go right back to where you started.
All the warning signs are there with this bunch and as a fan base we ought to be...
Hopefully the final product offers a bit more. For a lot of people it won't feel like 'home' for a long time. There is a positive though: the atmosphere and results can't be any worse than this year.
And tbh, the worst thing you could say about the inside is that could easily be Leicester City. Having said that, the outside looks brilliant and it is an iconic location.
I'm guessing it's challenging to make the interior look 'original' but I'm with you. I think my reservations come from the fact Goodison has so much character and dare I say it, this just looks a bit soulless.
He's working under very difficult circumstances so like most people employed at the club right now he gets a free pass. If we cling on this year and the promoted clubs make a real go of it then Thelwell and the club are going to need to have one hell of a summer to make it to that new stadium in...
Who's it in jeopardy from? Is Moshiri capable of making the decision to sack him? I'm not convinced. I'm even less convinced there's a plan for any replacement if it came to that.
I think Dyche has one of the most secure jobs in the league for now.
So true about all our players really. A decent spell of form and we elevate them into something they're not.
With regards to Doucoure specifically, it can often look especially bad because the forward he's supporting also struggles to control the ball and is mainly there to be a pest to the...
I thought he controlled the ball and passed it backwards a few times, which as much as we've seen from DCL all season. As I said, both are really poor players. I don't particularly want to defend either of them for how they've played this season.
Really ineffective today. Even when he is effective we know it's a hard watch but he does make things happen. Complete opposite today. Made so many poor decisions.
Baffling decisions such as deploying Godfrey at right back and bringing Young on when we need a goal don't help his cause. Don't think he knows how to stop this rot - worrying times.
That spell at the start of the 2nd half where he had about 4 opportunities to deliver a decent ball and did the exact opposite will haunt me for a while.
Defending was absolutely shocking in the first half too don't forget. United pretty much let us have the ball second half. No prizes for getting to the final third when they were happy for us to.
