We need a RB (who can get forward), CB (cover for JoB and Tarks), a CF, 2 x CM. Ideally right winger, too. That's 6 players, mostly who'll be first choice if decent, with approx 5 weeks to prep for an away game in front of Leeds who'll be bang up for it. Crack on TFG and Davey boy, crack on...

Yeah keep Garner and McNeil. Effort and attitude good. Both young-ish on an upward curve.

Is it over yet? Good luck Michael. Not your fault someone thought you were a £30m centre half when that was proper dough. Hope you carry on banging in a few anywhere but against Everton :)

Yeah, that about nails it. I think DCL and for example - Michael Keane - embody a period in Everton's time when maybe not the 'best' players also took on a lot of responsibility in a side / club undergoing major flux, mismanagement under grim ownership. Both lads had some OK spells and moments...

Phew (to Charlie Adam going).

Making a great case for it. U21s ping it around far better than senior team.

I agree with this when I look at the over financed disgrace that is MUFC. BUT... Strangely the absolutely disgraceful mediocrity of well moneyed clubs like them, Spurs, City last year is not everything, and conversely creates the opportunity others need. The way Brighton, Brentford ( who I...

I hope so, they'll do ok... Both CB's got a goal in em and all those guys at some point scrambled Everton over the line, when the writing was on the wall after higher spending mgt and higher paid players.

I like to think I give anyone who turns out for us a fair go. Especially in this era where they've played for a side almost constantly under pressure and often under mgt / squad flux, and with some absolute triple hangers on knocking around training sessions. Like DCL, I think that's been...

Great post. Quansah and JB different players. I don't think anyone's doing that kinda dough for those two Reds, though. Maybe 40 and 60 tops (not that we even care!). Jarrad needs to stay put, great couple of seasons, see us solid top half/ europa and if then it's more obvious to everyone...

Uhh, I just dislike the guy. His head's not right. I don't recall him putting a great cross in for ages, he was clearly goal shy at the Euros where Spain repeatedly pulled him out of position for both winners. He's not top drawer now. Time's caught up with him. Italian league slower, would...

DCL lacks in power, pace and consistency. Successful center forwards tend to have those qualities. He can occasionally hit the box at the right time and poke a goal in. I think he's genuine enough, he just is what he is, and we've watched him be that for a very long time now.

Whilst they nabbed stones n lescott.

Can't remember the last time I saw grealish play / well / at all. Never _really_ thought he fitted at city. Fair play he made a bundle and had an ok season once. Swerve

Keep ndiaye ffs. What's this thread for?
