Welcome Charlie Adam

[Tipp blue]

39 years old, same age as our right back... looks old enough to be Young's Da.

See Dave has taken the news well

 

[COYBL25]

Not arsed.

The Kopite scum will be gone in the summer. Ilm pretty sure of that now. The whole crew will be gone once we're safe.

Just like when you trumpeted over and again, that Benitez had the full backing of Moshiri to reset the club and just like Dyche had the full backing of the new owners ( kin spivs ) and will be here until the end of the season ?

Classy of Irvine to bring his grandad for a look around on his first day.

 

[Charles Hawtrey]

therye is a big fat whale at FF

A new chant?

 

[davek]

The state of that free loading tramp. Here to secure his life-long supplies of Mars Bars, Tunnocks and Irn Bru.

Make the most of it Humpty Dumpty, you'll be falling from that dock wall this summer.

Seeing as it's pretty relevant in this week's news.
Can we do our own hostage release and swap him for Johnny Heitinger?
Bring a blue home.

They get Heitinga and we get their mess.

Seems fair...

Has he actually been a set piece coach before or are we just hiring him cos he was good at free kicks once ?

Doesn't look like, he was sacked last December from Fleetwood

Belive it is due to him being good at free kicks, from the notes

That is exactly my question. Hasn't done brilliantly during his coaching/managerial spell. Very strange decision.

I mean there’s a bit of a difference between managing a team and looking solely at set pieces. Maybe we just all give him a chance.

No nowhere near.

Arsenal, Chelsea, Forest, Newcastle, Bournemouth, Villa, Palace, West ham ,Spurs have more this season. Last season was quite high but as per typical dyche we scored far more set pieces than open play. Never a great sign.

Well I remember we were definitely 2nd behind Arsenal in December . A quick Google gave this from December , I can’t believe it’s changed that much

Everton
Sean Dyche often drills the fundamentals into Everton and set-piece prowess is a big part of the game plan. Last season, Everton ranked second in the Premier League for set-piece goals scored (19), behind only Arsenal. The Toffees scored more goals from set-pieces than they did from open play in 2023/24.

Dyche’s side rank joint-second for set-piece goals this season, with six scored.

The coach in charge of setting up set pieces bounced in the summer.
