Gueye - Rooney - Davies

Tosun​

NEA, that's a very good team if we can get the chemistry sorted.

Replace Tosun with Niasse (don't know what he's done to lose his place to Tosun who hasn't even scored a goal yet) and that is out best 11.

Edit: I'm also skeptical about replacing Martin with Baines, he's gone down hill rapidly and isn't half the player he was.

No mate, I’m just jumping on the ‘Funes Mori is great’ bandwagon. Even though he’s pants.

Lad??? Do people still say that

 

[ToffeeTim]

Another one to boo at least

 

[Baines' left foot]

Sorry fella. I actually don’t mind Funes Mori, but people are pretending he’s better than he is.

The Lucas Leiva effect is strong in this thread.

He's a horrific player who should be the first out the door in the summer.

Is the correct answer.

BUT LAD HE WILL BE PLAYING WITH DER MESSI IN DER SUMMER.

His reputation has flowered during his absence .
I can recall plenty of criticism of him when he was a regular.

Probably from the same mouth breathers that forced rom and Ross out. We can't have nice things because of them

This guy is fine. And no not just because his injured, I always liked him before anyways. Needs to partner a ball playing centre half, and not a statue though.

What Everton players don't get criticised? We are a harsh bunch of supporters that have criticised some of our great players since I have been an Evertonian. Ratcliffe, Reid, Lineker, Sheedy, Watson, Latchford just to mention a few. If a player is not on the top of his game at all times then the criticism is in full flow regardless of what they have achieved or done for us. Woe betide any player that doesn't perform brilliantly at all times.

You are not allowed to celebrate my goals/defensive plays

Hey, I called you decent. I wasn't overly critical.

Really? Rom's decision to leave was nothing to do with money, then?

 

[messymascot]

He is a decent centre back no better no worse. I would ideally like to see us buy 2 new first choice centre backs in the summer and keep Mori, Keane and Holgate as back up. If we only get one centre back it wouldn't be the end of the world if the 3 of them were competing to partner the new player. He will definitely be an upgrade on Williams and Jagielka.

Look at the abuse some of the pond life gave him. What player would want to play for us with fans like that

 

[Daveysgingerlovechild]

Cwoar, there's a lot of high hopes in this thread. Even assuming the stance that Mori is boss / decent is correct, he's coming back from a bad injury. Like Coleman and Bolassie. I think it is fair to say both are not up to speed. So I hardly expect Mori to return seamlessly.
