Josh King has 54 caps. Richarlison 23.

Over double!

you have already been vaulted once today, don't make me do it again

i am pointing out that when players are called up for international duty everton will have had significanltly more players called up than watford or bournemouth players because our squad was much better than them

What? What the hell are you going on about? Why does a player being an international mean they’re better than someone else? Cuco Martina has more international caps than Lucas Digne, let’s get him back in the team.

it doesn't but international football is the highest level of football you can play so generally speaking if you have a squad with 15 active international players its going to be a decent squad, not a poor or crap squad

Is it? San Marino vs Andorra in a World Cup qualifier in front of 200 people is “international football”, probably a lower level than the Vanarama National League.

Why are we talking about how many international caps Watford players have?

Because we can buy them to replace the players we have, who have no international experience, and improve our squad so that our manager can win more and this thread can be full of positivity.

It's the flimsy centerpiece of one poster's argument that Carlo is a bad manager...

When did Everton last score a second half goal at Goodison?

Just seen someone saying it was October in the Derby, but I’m thinking it surely can’t be.

Apparently Ancelotti inherited a great squad because loads of our players had played in international fixtures.

Wasn’t Martina captain for his country?

Digne - France - 2nd in the world
Richarlison - Brazil - 3rd in the world
Keane, Pickford, DLC - England - 4th in the world
Gomes - Portugal - 5th in the world
Kean - Italy - 7th in the world
Mina - Colombia - 15th in the world
Tosun - Turkey - 29th in the world
Iwobi - Nigeria - 32nd in the world
Coleman - Ireland - 47th in the world
Sigurdsson - Iceland - 52nd in the world

these are all players Ancelotti had at his disposal when he joined us

he then brought in

Allan - Brazil - 3rd in the world
Rodriguez - Colombia - 15th in the world
Olsen - Sweden - 18th in the world
King - Norway - 42nd in the world

we are not talking about minnow countries here

do you honestly think watford or bournemouth had better squads than the one ancelotti inherited?
