Yep.

Absolutely wrecks my head how many people simply look at “appearances” and “goals” and decide whether a player is any good or not, without bothering to check how many times a player started, what position they played, and how old they are.

Ronaldo wasn’t banging in 40 a season at 19 either.

Iling only got into the first team squad in December last year and has clearly been used off the bench as he finds his feet.
 
4th August is a week on Friday.

If we haven't more players in by then, it's likely going to be a quite desperate effort on deadline day. How can months of planning, if there is any, come down to that with yet another massive gamble on the club's future?

The amount of time left to make an impact is small and getting smaller.

Excuses won't score goals and won't keep us up. Unless things change and fast, then it's been another shambolic "effort".
 
Why because he's been relegated twice?

He is the most qualified at keeping us in the same position we are now or worse.

People need to stop drinking the cool-aid. Having a bad manager isn't going to help us, having a actually good manager who can coach players to be better will.

Who is a good manager who will come to us and improve us with very limited funds?
 
Because in Jackson 8 games in charge he won 11pts.

In dyches previous 16 games in charge he'd won 14pts.

Dyche had put Burnley in the position they were in and Jackson did well to get the results they did.

You cant have someone in charge of a team for 30 games then blame they guy they had in charge for 8, especially if he did ridiculously well considering the position they were in.

Absolute garbage.

Who won the Champions League in 2021, Tuchel or Lampard?

Who won the Champions League in 2012, Villa-Boas or Di Matteo?

The incumbent takes the praise or criticism when big events happen in football.

Mike Jackson had 24pts to save Burnley from relegation, he failed. Dyche was not employed by Burnley on the day they were relegated.

You don’t get to rewrite history just because you don’t like the facts.
 

Never heard of Iling-Junior before, but with a quick look he seems to be highly rated. Young English player from Chelsea’s academy. Sounds like Juve’s fans have been frustrated that Allegri has played him mostly at LWB rather than on the wing. Would definitely prefer Gnoto but he could easily be the backup target. Same age.
If we were to ignore our financial limitations a moment, we do need two more wingers (if, as expected, Gray leaves). In that scenario, we would only have McNeil and Danjuma.

Won't be signing this lad and Gnonto due to the finances, but we need to be looking out for 2 wide men really.
 
Pretty sure no one is going to spend millions on a player without a medical being passed first which then means contracts can finally be signed and then confirmed.
Missing my point, which is basically loads of transfers are done and confirmed in the media, before medicals and it can be 4/5days after it’s confirmed before you see the player holding the shirt.

Yes it could fall through by failing a medical, which has happened. But 99% of the time the deal goes through. Romano said it was done Monday might and could be sealed Tuesday, if EBT was having a medial today or it was booked for tomorrow, Fabrizio would be all over it.

Apparently EBT posted something on instagram 2hrs ago training at his current club.

And there's every chance Danjuma is going to be playing as CF with Iwobi and McNeil on the wings. Hardly ideal
 

one of our biggest problems is bandwidth. Kenwright appears to conduct all negotiations and he can only handle one at a time so i guarantee you nothing will happen until Toure's decision is confirmed.

….I’m more concerned that he is ‘selling Everton’ to in-demand players with a well publicised cloud of controversy over his head.
