Calvert-Lewin offers far more to the team than Beto. I’d be trying to sell Beto back to Italy and have DCL, Chermiti and Adams as forward options.

Some good work was done last summer in reducing the wage bill, I’m sure there was an article in the Athletic saying we’d shaved £40m off the wage bill in outgoings. We only made a small number of transfers in so the wage/turnover ratio will be healthier. This summer sees big earners/ no...

I would have thought cash flow would ease slightly this month with season ticket money coming in.

The Guardian report that’s the basis for this latest frenzy is hopelessly vague. Teneco offer a whole range of financial services to businesses, they might not be working with Everton on insolvency but on one of the myriad of other business services they provide; https://www.teneo.com/services/

If I remember correctly, Liverpool were apparently close to administration before they were bought by their current owners. Stories will be getting planted with various news outlets all over the place as different groups try to push their own interests. The usual people to drive administration...

No one benefits from administration. People we owe money to, Moshiri, 777, it’s in no one’s interests. Other interested parties will use 777’s final demise as an opportunity to buy us at a cheaper rate. Another buyer won’t want us to enter administration as that could well mean relegation, which...

This is where we need to see a more ruthless Everton and not Kenwright-esque, emotion based decisions. Coleman has been injured for the majority of this season and hasn’t earned a new contract. We can’t afford to give someone a new £60k a week contract because they’ve played here for ages.

Wages saved will be significant; Gomes £120k Dele £100k Coleman £60k (maybe offer him 1 yr as player/coach but on hugely reduced terms, say £30k) Onana £50k Harrison £60k Danjuma £60k Doucoure is in the last year of his contract and was linked with Saudi teams last summer. I’d be inclined to...

I think Coleman’s time is up as a player- I’d see if he wants a coaching role or reduced terms as a player/ coaching position. I’d be tempted to see if there’s any further interest from Saudi clubs for Doucoure. He’s 31 and his contract is up next summer. Would rather sell him for £10m+ now than...

Thought he acquitted himself quite well. Like the rest of the team looked better in the second half. Would be good to see him get more minutes now there’s less pressure on the last 3 games.

Yeah- heads have well and truly gone. They’re in tin foil hat territory. Creates a whole new pantomime around the club at a time when they need to be fully focused on performances on the pitch. Very odd.

Huge win. I’d have been satisfied with a point today following the Chelsea thrashing. 5 points is a big cushion with Luton only having 4 games left. Feel one more win for us now would be more than enough. Getting it on Wednesday would be most welcome!

I’ve still not fully forgiven Gomes for the awful performance he put in the first half of the Palace game when we were 2 down at half time. Chance to redeem himself today.

Agree. And the days of teams with no relegation threat/ chance of Europe playing a load of youngsters to give them game time are long gone. Too much financial incentive per league place for teams to sack it off.

Hopefully helps the atmosphere tomorrow. If Luton had won today, going into the game knowing they we’d be in the bottom 3 if we lost would make it very tense. As it is, it will probably still be a stressful afternoon, but knowing that a draw wouldn’t be disastrous is a big boost.

He’ll lift the mood a bit if he drops Young. If through injury/choice he starts Young, Keane, Godfrey and Beto then the mood will be flat from kick off and we’ll have a defence like a sieve with no attacking threat.

Think there were rumours of Saudi clubs wanting him last summer wasn’t there? Hopefully that will happen again this year and we can get a decent fee for him.

If someone offered £30m or more in the summer I’d be seriously tempted to sell him. Virginia caught more crosses in the FA cup games he played this season than Pickford has in his whole Everton career.

Whichever league we’re in come the summer I’d be moving on a lot of the deadwood. Doucoure might attract interest from Saudi, Coleman is done, Young should be released, plus Maupay, Holgate, Keane. Danjuma and Harrison have done nothing to justify keeping them so 2 better loans need to be taken up.
