Salah definitely the weak point right now. Form looks to have taken a dive of Torres proportions. Long may it continue.

I know the meltdown is coming. Sooner the better though.

But they'll still get lucky. They sold Coutinho and torres for triple their worth when it didn't make sense all because some clubs seem to believe the hype instead of scouting.

Anyone looking at Salah this season wouldn't be paying top money. He looks like a completely different player. Last season he barely lost ball. This time around you're surprised if he's held onto it.

Perhaps when youre releasing your vitriol in this designated RS mocking thread, you would be better served by reflecting that noone on here nor Evertonians generally supported that fella with the kid v Lyon. Unlike your rabid fans who would make excuses for anything..or just not talk about it so it seems to have never happened. That hothead mug of ours was rightly punished and with a custodial. However, he didnt have a premeditated scarf over his face..nor the cover of smoke from flares and he did it live on television and in front of Police and stewards. Bang to rights. Those cowards chucking bottles etc at the City coach couldve blinded that driver in the midst of the criminal damage yet, in spite of hundreds of mobiles aloft videoing it and Police surveillance, noone was charged...just a club knucklerap from Uefa. Why dont you reflect too therefore that, but for the grace of the usual spawn you experience, you wouldnt be playing in Europe tonight..nor any other night in this campaign.

Yep. A few idiots on Twitter were cheering him because ~PASHUN~ but the vast majority of us thought he was an arsehole. And we weren't encouraging our fans to attack rival fans unlike SOME TEAMS I COULD MENTION.

Everton fans rush to support 'legend of the Park End' mocked in sneering Tweet

Footie fans have jumped to the defence of a disabled Everton fan mocked in a sneering Twitter post after a video captured him celebrating a goal.

The footage, which was widely shared online, shows the young man running along a disabled section of the stand in Goodison Park after the Blues netted during their 3-1 defeat to West Ham on Sunday .

However some observers suggested he had "jumped out of a wheelchair" after Gylfi Sigurdsson pulled one back for the Toffees , and made assumptions about his disablity.

One Twitter user, @AshHinchy, said: "So this guy got out of his wheelchair and started running around a kicking himself when Everton scored. Miraculous."

However the post was quick to draw derision from other users, many of who said they had seen the man at games before and suggested he had Down's Syndrome.

@blue-nose-amy said: "Angers me so much the state of the replies to this. The lad concerned isn't a wheelchair user.
"He is a lovely lad who has Down Syndrome and just loves Everton. He reacts to every goal we score with so much joy. His Everton world is much nicer than the real one."

@cdg68everton said: "He sits by us and is a legend of the Park End. Everyone loves him.
"If only the team had half of his energy and charisma."

User Granville Jenkins said: "Trial by a 20 second clip - you’re not a doctor, your judging a disabled person and vilifying his actions on Twitter - can’t think of many things more despicable.
"That chap clearly has Downs Syndrome and for a brief few seconds released a lot of emotion. Get a life!"

Despite the scorn of other social media users, @AshHinchy continued to cast aspersions on Evertonians, posting: "Funny how all the Everton fans are responding now daytime TV has finished, and the job centre is closing."
A spokesman for Everton said the club did not wish to comment on the video.

Wtf is wrong with that paper. That's utterly shameful, that's not news, that's purely done for click bait and interest and all to put our club down. Our great club which is usually at the forefront at anything positive within football these days. But that doesn't get the attention, they just put us down and talk up the murderers and thugs of the RS instead as heroes.

I say this and mean it - they're a fantastic side with an effective manager and they have a fantastic chance of winning the league this year.

We are as far away from them as we've ever been. The difference in mentality is staggering.

Hate saying it, but fair play to them.

You're right in what you say but just remember Klopp isn't too good at winning trophies. It's not just the tactics that exhaust the players, his whole mentality looks knackering. Let's see where things are up to by December after playing twice a week for a few months.

I don't watch them anymore thankfully. Gave tonight a watch for 20 mins until I realised I don't watch football anymore because its always determined by crap officials.
 
i would happily take Judas Barkley posing with the league trophy and a medal if it means that lot not winning it.

They're starting to look like a threat again. The last thing any of us want is a repeat of 2013-2014, all kopites I knew were awful during that season.

Same could be said for quite a few players to be fair this season, Kane being the prime example. Happens all the time in a world cup year. He was rushed back to be fit for the world cup when he'd probably have been best sitting it out and resting.

May as well give them number 6 and number 19 now then mate, your mind seems made up.

Don't think they will win both. Its a dangerous game, but i want them to go far in the Champions League to stretch the squad for the Premier League.

Salah will regain his form sooner or later but in the meantime they are carrying him and winning easy. Gomez and VVD look a very good partnership that will get better with more games. Robertson and Arnold look solid with decent crossing ability and Allison looks like an improvement on Karius.

They are a dangerous team and probably the only challengers to City.

I get your logic but that’s like inviting Beelzebub over for tea tbh.

No. Unlike last season they will be EXPECTED to mount a challenge in the PL this season and it wont be just finishing 4th and focussing on the CL.

They aren't good enough to win the CL - they just underlined that tonight. If they had a free hand at the PL though they could with a fair wind and their usual refs decisions run City close.
