David and Gomes on frees would be excellent business. So of couse we'll pass on them as the parasitic poisonous porno dwarf won't sign anyone not on the Salthouse/Mackay client list...

Enjoyed his stewardship when it was going well but the wheels eventually came off and he's a hard bloke to like even when he's on the up. Once that relationship with the fans soured it was only a matter of time until the exit door beckoned. I feel that parting ways was best for all but as usual the ...

Will offer us some dead ball threat if nothing else, and maybe Potter can get him playing in a pivot role that recycles the ball quickly. Still prefer JWP to come on rather than Guido.

Disappointing as always to be leading and then end up empty handed but more encouraging signs from Potter. At least we're prepared to have a go, Potter's immediate predecessors would've either written the game off before a ball was kicked or probably been 3-0 down within 20 minutes due to a ludicrou...

A forward was needed and he seems to fit the profile of player that we need. Bit of an odd one though if we don't have an option to buy as has been noted, he'll either do well and have his price jacked up or he'll do shit and we won't make any material gains on pitch. Still, it might inspire more ex...

If Moyes had gotten us playing like he's currently got Everton doing, I'd have been happy for him to stay.

But he couldn't so I'm not.

0-1 flattered Everton a bit, they looked hopeless at simple short passes and their only out appears to be the full backs pumping it long to DCL (sound familiar?).

That press conference is something else though, deary me. Equal parts David Brant and Alan Partridge.

Bit chaotic and scrappy but we got 3 points, and that with a somewhat cobbled together team led by a bloke whose been in post for a week compared to the slick and well drilled outfit that have had 2 years under Silva. Pleased to see that Potter can be pragmatic but still try to implement his ideas (...

Seems fitting that he'd be their last manager at Goodison Park.

Though I would find it utterly hilarious if he relegates them and they open their new stadium in the championship.

Whatever else we make of the Villa cup tie, Scarles starting was a real bright spot and I'm glad he looked the part and not overawed by the occasion. I found the travelling fans chanting his name rather uplifting, and incredible to see that he was trusted to take set pieces over long established pro...

Macari did cross my mind this week, a bit before my time though so if anyone who was around for that can compare the two I'd interested to read it!

Lop given the Spanish archer, and we appoint the man we should've gone for in the first place last summer. What a waste of everyone's time, thanks Sullivan you odious cretin.

Lop The Flop is gone according to a couple of ITKs on KUMB. Just hasn't been announced yet as once again, the parasitic poisonous porno dwarf is fucking up with appointing the successor. I do wonder how exactly Sullivan is trying to save a few bob here, is he trying to force Lop to walk to save on t...

He may be desperate for work like Moyes was in 2017... Wasn't Bilic something like their 6th choice to replace Allardyce because everyone on the circuit saw his shabby exit from us and decided to give Sullivan a wide berth? The parasitic poisonous porno dwarf has only doubled down on that with Moyes...

Truly abominable behaviour from the parasitic poisonous porno dwarf. I've seen more professionalism in Romford Job Centre than from him and the devil with tits.

6 month deal for whoever the replacement is? Fuck off.

Kudus certainly passed well to De Bruyne to set up Man City's 4th...

Potts emerging as the one player close to stepping up to the first 11. He is not the pacy, box to box, physical presence we still need desperately but works harder than the likes of  Paqueta, Rodruiguez and co when out of possession and very tidy in possession with great passing accuracy.  If he's ...

Whilst I can see the argument that Flop needs to be backed with "his" players to play his style, I'd counter that he's done so poorly with what he's currently got that he hasn't earnt the spending outlay necessary for reinforcements. Besides, aside from the "gift" of Danny Ings, ...

Lop The Flop currently has a lower win percentage than Avram Grant...

Good post. The assessment of the FB's and CB's is exactly what the problem is.  But add to that also that, for some reason, Lope has complicated the DM position by doing this 'up and down' role that see's the DM move into midfield when we have the ball and then into sweeper role when we are defendi...

Will only bat an eyelid at this if Scarles, Orford, and/or Irving get on the pitch.

Out of curiosity, since so many thinks our defen6is so shit. Who should we have bought? Or who would fix our problems if we could choose anyone?   It's a fair Q, but the answer isn't 'just' about defensive players. It's also about the system we play, how we play it and which defensive midfielders s...

5-0 loss and hoping that happens early so they take their foot off the gas and Pep rotates some fringe players on.

I also have no idea what Lop wants to do with the CDM. Sometimes he's out wide covering the full backs that have pushed up, sometimes he's stood near the striker trying to lead the press or running onto a flick on, sometimes he's dropping deep to play as the third centre back. The CDM probably has n...
