I think it’s a fair question from blues questioning his commitment to Everton with all this off the pitch behaviour. There’s a lot of wonderful staunch blues who turn up week in week out and have done for life who want to see the same sole focus commitment from those wearing the shirt they pay to see every week.

We shouldn’t turn this into a homophobic reason why such blues are calling out a lad wearing the number 9 on his shirt and not contributing the goals needed to keep Everton in the league. Those same blues you’re cheaply critiquing will be there long after these players will. NSNO.

STAUNCH.

Haven't heard a non-Rangers... anything... even saying that word in ages lol

No, does it you then?

Not in the slightest, off topic but I wish gay footballers felt safe enough to come out and be role models for those struggling with their sexual preference. It's painful to see how many cave men survived the ice age.

Unfortunately, his 2nd job seems more important to him.

Careful. You angry homophobic dinosaur.

 

[maccavennie]

Wouldn't start him v Burnley

He will just be totally in effective against their style

Not sure mate, DCLs flairs are deffo still in fashion in Burnley so it could be a perfect match

 

[Mr K.Dilkington]

People are a little afraid these days (understandably) to criticise this brand of expressing yourself. If he was driving a James Bond car or telling us how well he did at golf this week he would be getting dogs abuse.

Why do you feel the need to criticise?

Because when people don't understand something new their initial reaction is to be afraid of it and criticise it.

Big game this, handbags at dawn.

Is it too much to expect Everton no 9s to focus on scoring goals for Everton rather than pushing their own brand? Especially when we face a potential catastrophic relegation that could change this club as we know it. Do the business on the pitch and I’m sure these blues unhappy with his extra circular activities would very happily look the other way or even back him. DCL’s first job and super paid one is scoring goals for Everton. The catwalk can wait lads. NSNO.

What is this oddly balanced sounding post?!

You feeling okay?

Yes couldn't agree more, Nothing more Macho than Rugby and they come out without problems

Can you imagine the fury of Burnley’s gammon army if a fella who likes to wear mini skirts and handbags in his spare time scores against them?

The deep-seated hatred would rival some of the bellends on here.

He's been doing the modelling/adverts stuff for a few years now. It's highly entertaining to see just how riled up people get over something so unimportant. He's got a life outside of football - I'm sure you'd all be even more furious if instead he was spending his free time in the pub or is that an acceptable level of masculinity.

It has nothing to do with masculinity or fashion for me. Nothing. But his team is in a mist of a relegation battle. He is not performing and hasnt been for a while. Injured or not. To me it comes down to focusing during the season on football if you are not performing on the pitch. Different if he was banging in goals and playing well.
He looks distracted to me. In more ways than one. He isnt working as hard as he should and not winning personal battles in the pitch. I always think he has been a limited footballer anyway but is good on crosses and in the box.
If he was advertising playstation and spending his energy off the pitch on that and not performing people would be saying what the hell is going on too.

Its life or death time for this club. Everyone needs to wake up and concentrate 100% on getting out of their mess they got us in.

Dunno if it's not just the general popularity of football that won't allow this to happen though...

Different topic for a different thread though, I suppose.

Eh? And here was I thinking Burnley was a Liberal Eden of permissiveness and free thinking.

It is, compared to the middle ages I guess.
