Quite clearly talking about the league lad.

 

[Saint Domingo]

Yeah, with 59 points.......

61 wasn't it? 4th is 4th, better than 16 other teams, not done that since.

Oh right so 04/05 then 11 years ago.

Yeah it was indeed. At least you know your stuff. Not like Ian claiming it was our best ever season in the league since the 80's

 

[hktoffee]

61 points and it was 4th.

 

[mythbuster]

61 points and it was 4th.

Yeah, I stand corrected. Still pretty sure I enjoyed us winning more points than that though

 

[DualityNSNO]

Its clear to me....

You have the Barca system he wants to emulate.

Theres only
Stones
Mori
Perhaps Besic
Barkley
Deulofeu
Lukaku

Who have the attributes and can play the desired system as starters.

The full backs cant defend.
Jagielka cant pass

But in fact other than Wham is there a game robles started that you were thinking our defence let us down?

I think I've told you about 10 times now our system has eff all to do with the Barca system, other than the fact we try to keep the ball on the ground. Literally nothing else. Not the pressing, not the way we attack, not the way we keep the ball, and sadly not the way we defend (which is a bit suspect at Barca too at times, but tbh they have about 10-12 tough games a season, whereas in England nearly every game can and probably will be a tough one. They still win just about all of theirs though).

Eh? It was you claiming stuff old buddy old pal, not me. Where I come from 4th is better than 5th. Don't say I've been claiming stuff I haven't.

I know my stuff.

I'm offended.

72 points is quite clearly better than 61 points! What school did you go to?

But 61 points got us 4th, 72 got us 5th.
Think you'll find it's final league position that counts.

I know my stuff. You've offended me. Now test me, let me prove it. Ask me any question related to Everton post 93.

Think you'll find that I cheered and laughed more when we won more games
