Makes a change from you banging that drum…. Anyway. “One of your lot”? means what exactly? 🤔 Not very inclusive that statement is it? Hey, I've no problem with you, er "banging that drum" bobinho, I just wish you'd try to pretend that you are interested in the reality of it How do you think your de...

Nothing more bonkers than supporting the next thing the TV tells you to support and calling others far right for not playing along. Maybe Wout Weghorst is glad that the pressure is off a bit now fans started arguing about boiled eggs and Nazis. There is a huge difference between selectively researc...

Why do we always compare the men & women’s game and say the women’s game isn’t upto the men’s standard? Do you go to and u13s Sunday league game and say “well it’s not as good as Man City v Arsenal”? It’s a different product. It’s not meant to be comparable People go and tend to treat the decisions...

Isn’t it amazing how conversations can just develop and deviate like that? Glad it doesn’t happen like that in the pub - be carnage. News to anyone who has been in a pub conversation that they never deviate and develop I'd have thought And I feel like I need to point this out, it was one of your lo...

Job done

Apart from the first twenty minutes, not brilliant, but its the results that matter

Lancasterclaret

Got away with that

Got to step it up in the last few minutes

Not as fluent, but our excellent keeper hasn't had to make a meaningful save

So far so good

Lancasterclaret

The Sports pages of all newspapers are all worth reading for links and rumours, but only up to a point I'd be amazed if we've dropped out interest in Tella, but we will have other targets, and its perfectly possible that Southampton holding out for a bigger fee could result in us getting one of the ...

Lot closer after the first 20 minutes and Walsh is a huge loss

But they deserve to be ahead - got to keep it going

Eating a boiled egg nowadays is far right so I'm not surprised that supporting Weghorst is seen as far right too.

I'm glad someone has finally called out the right wing boiled egg conspiracy

Lancasterclaret

England look brilliant going forward, but they have been caught far too often on the break

But its a very good performance so far

Lancasterclaret

You know that stuff is backed by the UN and big moguls pushing us towards a new world order right? This is part of the equality idea that the west has been stealing from the rest of the world and it's time to pay back the poor countries so every country could have the same. So we in Europe should j...

Watching the Larsen interview there’s a moment in one of the drills where Roberts nearly catches Weghorst. They are both laughing. As a body language expert I officially declare an end to the feud ;-) Laughing while whispering "I'll get you next time Wout" Yours Dr Lancasterclaret PHD (in wildly ov...

Pretty sure we will get Tella now

But we really do need at least another centre midfielder

Kamikaze planes didn't need retractable landing gear. (Or any landing gear at all, in fact. just taking-off gear.)

I don't think all WW2 planes had retractable landing gear, did they?

Most did, only the early planes didn't - just made them far too slow and vulnerable

Lancasterclaret

Yeah, its a Ka-51 "Sonia" - it has fixed landing gear

Massively out classed by 1945 it has to be said, and its a miracle it got as far as it did (it was obsolete at the start of the war)

The worst thing we did with British cities is the plonking of dual carriageways into the hearts of our cities and building giant shopping centres over the top of victorian streets. A single stinking concrete building can be knocked down and replaced by a beautiful one. But when you've knocked down ...

The best pic to depict the Turf and show positives is to go to the upper reaches of the JH and take a pic showing the view over the BL. I doubt there are many views better from a ground in this country.

The view I have every home game, and its magnificent

He also said Kompany wants around 5 more players.

There would be a fair few leaving then if that happens one would think

Rebuilt over time as an exact copy of how it was like before it was destroyed in 1945

Pretty impressive

Lancasterclaret

Eddie and Jason did amazingly well with them last year, but they were undoubtedly helped by Spurs, Chelsea and Liverpool all being gash

Going to be a struggle this year, though I think Tonali is a terrific signing

Lancasterclaret

Cynical me is pretty sure that Chelsea will play Maatsen as often as possible till he signs a new contract, then he'll be loaned out Its up to Maatsen really - he probably needs to leave to guarantee first team football and he's still a very young player with his entire career ahead of him, so you'd...

Whats is "todays market" though?

He had essentially done very little till we and him turned him into the perfect fit - he still got very limited premier league experience

Put it one way, I think Saints are open to selling him and won't want to scare us off too much

How have we already come to the conclusion that 'this sort of focus on its many negative points' from a 30 second trailer which is bascally just showing a few back alleys, a chippy, an old guy and a mural You guys really need to get a life and stop being so offended so easily.

The Planet Football website for one lists the wages paid for 22/23 and Everton are 12th with 43m. No idea how accurate these figures are but they do allow a comparison between different clubs.

Everton wouldn't be in financial trouble if that was the case

Lancasterclaret

Its important not to get carried away, but its also important to recognise that we played very well against a CL European team

Lots of positives should taken on board for the coming season from that

I’m becoming convinced that Benny has big offers and is funding some of this summer spending. We can’t possibly need so many wide players!!

Ha! We said that last year!

Lancasterclaret

As part of our first team squad they have a role to play for us Owen showed good ability all round and can provide good back up .We must be careful where we loan players out.In the past we have failed to develop our own players by inappropriate lower level loans. Sending them out on loan gives them...

Jacub Brunn Larsen coming on loan?

Lancasterclaret

Another one here who is changing his mind on it

Lancasterclaret

He played well

But I think he's the back up plan in case we can't get in the players we want

Lancasterclaret

That was a very good performance to be fair

Everyone contributed, but I thought Ekdal was head and shoulders above everyone

Lancasterclaret

Yeah, another one here who might have to change his mind about the kit

Lancasterclaret

Doing well here

El-Dakhil and Ekdal both doing really well, as is Muric

Lancasterclaret

Don’t really see the relevance to this. We may not be paying it all upfront be we are also paying for all the other previous transfers we’ve made in the last few windows. We’re probably still paying out for Weghorst and Cornet and not to mention the fees we paid for last summer and in January Just ...

Lancasterclaret

The reward is probably the fact that (IF we got relegated) the likes of Amdouni, Trafford, Beyer (not to mention Zaroury, Benson, Al-Dakhil and others) will wipe the risk out with their transfer value. It's gutsy - and was terrifying when we last got relegated, to me - but we know the strategy work...

Lancasterclaret

You really do have to question what our budget this summer is at this point. It's now clear we're still very actively trying to sign Tella and Maatsen permanently (one would assume that's about £25m as a minimum). We clearly still want at least one centre mid on top of that. We have already signed:...

Indeed, but one snippet on there is that Turfcast (who aren’t linking to the sources on this thread) have said they’ve been told that there are two medical this week which are not Koleosho and Townsend.
