I think the point that needs backing up is the idea that if we slip down to tenth, below God knows who, with all the financial implications and our players getting off, we'll be fine and will be challenging for europe next year as your earlier post seems to suggest is realistic. It really isn't as teams today don't do that without big investment.

If Selling Fellaini without a sound replacement and we still can manage a #10, its already a good cost-saving measure paying in the long term.

The Baseline is either #4 or #17. Everywhere else carries inefficiencies.

* I mean, every other club between mid-table and us can attract players of some quality. Its the financial side rather than the on-field side constraining things.

You struggling to sleep, Chico? Me too.

Top vaulting though, that said I remember saying a similar thing to a mate of mine before the window shut.

*hangs head in shame

I would honestly sack him the utter clown.

He took a free flowing top 6 side and turned them into a version of the chuckle brothers with Distin and Jags playing from me to you for 90minutes.

I was promised attacking tiki taka, instead its been a long time since ive been that bored at Goodison.

Amazing criticism! My only real disappointment regarding the first three games was not getting what we deserved - but that's football! True we were a tad limp against WBA but they did defend extremely well. We've not played well in about 5-6 games and only one of those we deserved nothing (perhaps two if you think we weren't unlucky at times at City). Think I can live with the odd poor-ish performance if it also includes 3-0 tonkings of Arsenal, 3-0 at Newcastle, 1-0 at United etc etc.

Try marking each game out of 10 and see how good it is over the season.. it's a decent 8+ for me and that's just fine.

On any other day, we'd have beaten Norwich before this game.

They were fired up for the start of the season.
