    Match Thread Everton v Nottingham Forest - Pre-Match Chat, Match Report & MotM Poll

    I thought gomes helped us look much better in possession and forest don't seem to have realised that if you press him he'll cough up the ball and start fouling everyone (which is great for us). Dead balls were awful though. Also thought Mcneil looked a but sharper than he had recently...

    6 + 2 Point Deductions

    Is there any hint of a time frame for these charges, I know it's this season but could it be the day before it ends for example?

    January transfer window 2024

    If he hadn't left in the way that he did I'd be quite happy for him.... massively wasted talent up to this point

    Gomes has started exactly how I feared he would... Him playing well is so key to us getting anything

    Thought mykolenko completely shut him him down, previously he's been a pain.

    2022/23 Neal Maupay

    I do agree with this but I think some of it is to do with how we play with Dom on the pitch, we are higher up the pitch as he holds the ball up well bringing multiple people in to play opening up passes, this means we attack more consistently and other players are more likely to take risks. Also...

    Match Thread Nottingham Forest vs Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

    It feels pretty unfair for me, I also thought Simms did well when he came on towards the end of the Leeds game and definitely deserves another chance against teams where we're more likely to get a result

    Match Thread Everton v Leeds United - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

    Surprised to see the negative feedback on here, I thought we were pretty good throughout, the midfield worked well and we made plenty of chances. I also thought Simms looked pretty decent when he came on, winning headers everywhere and his ball control appeared to be improving. Maupay even...

    Confirmed Signing Neal Maupay

    I've thought for a while that he's the worst starting (main) striker at any Premier league club so this is spectacularly underwhelming and the kind of signing forced by not doing your business earlier in the window. Grim.

    Everton’s worst ever signing

    I think sigurdsson gets the number of votes he has because of how much he's played. A lot of the other obvious choices like bollasie or klassen barely got on the pitch. Talent wise he's clearly not the worst, but Sigurdsson is good enough to get on the pitch in a lot of recent teams and then...

    Everton January transfer window 2021

    I remember thinking even back when he was playing for Spurs that Eriksen reminded me a bit of Sigurdsson (He has great stats and would be a upgrade quality-wise but he has a lot of the same issues in terms of influencing the game consistently when you watch him). He'd produce a couple of...

    2019/20 Richarlison

    Yep, while he definitely hits the floor too easily but he's also one of our only players who consistently finds the net and any centre back he plays against looks angry and exhausted at the end of the game. Which I can't say for any of our other center forwards.

    2018/19 Andre Gomes

    I thought that our good performances (start and end of last season) with gomes in midfield were amongst the best I've seen from Everton (moyes onwards for my lifetime). A lack of quality and inability to dominate a midfield has been an issue for a decade or more. While he may not stack up...

    2018/19 Marco Silva - New Poll Added

    Completely agree with the vast majority of this, the negative effect of the anfield result, the decent number of chances we're making against good teams, the fact he should be given time to turn things around. My only real overriding problem is that I struggle to think of any good managers who...

    Match Thread Everton v Tottenham Hotspur - Preview, Match Report & MotM Poll

    What's worrying me is that the slide in performance clearly reaches back to the last minute derby loss. A good manager should be able to address this kind of slide and gut punch type of defeat, anything short of 2 wins from the next 3 (Burnley and Brighton away + Leicester at home) isn't really...

    V.A.R

    I'd have it if it could be purely confined to offside calls. I remember the video reviews from the world Cup and it slowed the game down, made it worse to watch and some of the calls were still wrong.

    What do pre-season results really tell us?

    I don't think the results are particularly important. For example the Porto game where we played relatively well and lost 1 nil, that didn't concern me at all. The manner of playing is however important, just because they're not competitive games doesn't mean you can't see issues. Blackburn...
