….you can observe attitude and application in footballers by watching how they play. It is better observing live but I imagine you can form an opinion sitting in a box room watching on TV. You don’t need to be a body language expert to determine those who play like the game matters.

100% agree. Also you can gauge a little bit from interviews. If you listen to Demarai Gray for example, he sounds completely laid back. When he gets the ball, the first thing he usually does is stop it and slow play down.

Not an exact science, but he is an example of seemingly not playing the game like it matters and it feels like that Is just because of his personality.

First thing Dyche did when he came in was a personality test for all of the players. Maybe we are now seeing the players move on who aren't a good 'team' fit....
 
Think have only really seen him play well once that was in midfield at united away under dunc..apart from that hes a championship player at best.. someone on here said a while ago he's on 70/80 grand a week honestly if true bloody worlds gone mad or should say EVERTON!
 

As a manager i would rather have a player banging on my door,asking why he is not getting picked.Than seeing him having a good time doing keepyupes whith his mate's in training.
I mean how do you know he's not doing that? Because of a training video of players training?

I don't like him as a player but there's a lot of stuff we, as fans, have no way of seeing.

The footage we see of players is probably no more than 5% of the time they are in training, yet people use that 5% to make an assumption about a players life and attitude. We must have some of the best psychologists in the world as fans.

It's the reason why so many of our players wind down their contracts and can't be sold. That wage is banded about lots on various podcasts. We will find out soon enough by transfer or loan/bench.

That 5% is an addition to the many abstract performances.

He was given that new 70 grand a week a couple of weeks after that decent display at Utd 😆
 
Gutted when he didn't join the squad in Switzerland due to an injury and not due to negotiations with other clubs. Him and Maupay should be joint first out of the doors this summer. Actually quite disgraceful we haven't been able to offload anybody yet despite having surely known for years that certain players will not make the grade here.

The fact they can't make it in a poor Everton side doesn't attract other teams.

And hours later the story about Southampton’s interest came out
