Re: The cost of playing out badly

In the last few games Muric has demonstrated pretty well how effective it can be. But decision making and clarity have to be ever present. Is this pass on? Have we been pressed to the point I need to clear this long? It looks as though they are coached to do it no matter what, rather than it being a...

Who's done enough to get a move?

Should the inevitable happen and we get relegated, who in the squad has merited a move to a Premier league side? This isn't a dissection of our transfer policy, more a practical look at who we may have to replace. For me, Sander Berge has done enough, and he's at an age where I think he'll want to c...

Re: Toffees vs Clarets Match Thread

I don't even think it's a lack of fight or desire. I think it's a pure lack of pragmatism in key moments. A silly foul, a hospital pass, trying to be too cute in our own third etc. I can't say I see a lack of effort in anyone

Re: Toffees vs Clarets Match Thread

I've managed to stay fairly level during this season, but that's just tipped me over. An absolutely terrible Everton team, and we gift wrapped 3 points with totally unforced errors when our lives depended on it.
