Everton Banter Archive August 21 2018

 

Use our rumours form to send us everton transfer rumours.

The one thing we need to exercise is something that appears to elude us Everton fans in particular and that something is a degree of caution and humility regarding our new Management Team and our expectations. I notice that various commentators, pundits and Sports writers also appear to be going OTT. We did the same with Martinez first Season and Koemans. We have not played anyone yet (with respect to Wolves and Southampton) , yes we are playing attacking football (Martinez and Koeman the same) but we are also conceding. Signs of improvement but far to early for us to be making definitive judgement. First Season boost or a genuine positive change, we shall see.

Well Utd have only played Leicester and Brighton but only took 3pts.

I’d go so far as to say that almost all posters agree that we are in need of work defensively and that this could very much be like Martinez or Koeman. But we have been subjected in the last 6 months or so to the most apathetic football I have ever seen at this club.

Our excitement is more about enjoying the football on show right now and the potential rewards it can bring once the new signings and the current crop get to grips with it more fully.

What you have to remember is, aparts from rich, we have nearly the same players in the team, the standard of football is already 100% better, we have new players getting up to speed, who will then make us even better, we have a lot to look forward to this season, I'm not thinking about top 6, I'm just enjoying what we are doing, if we finish 7,8 and have played well, it's a good start, and next season hopefully we can then push on, we aren't in the same league as the top teams yet, and shouldn't think we are, but still exciting times.

Well, let me tell you, i am getting over excited and am loving what i'm seeing.
For me, Football is a game of highs and lows and i for one am going to enjoy myself whilst we are on a high.
Non of this let's be sensible B***ocks.

SSN now saying Everton want £28 million plus add ons for Lookman, Marco must have someone lined up if he does go, if he doesn't want to play for us good business surely.

Agreed. if he doesn't want to play for Efc then take the money.

Agree3 Disagree0

I think he does want to play, that’s exactly the problem as I see it. If we give him game time then he’ll be happy. Problem is he needs to be patient and perform during training until his opotunity comes.

Marco knows the situation with Lookman, he's the best guy to sort it out mate.

He does want to play. just not for everton, he feels wanted at Leipzig. can't blame him tbh.

Agree2 Disagree2

Some of the rags are suggesting Lookman is trying to force a move, if true we all know the outcome of that.

Agree4 Disagree0

21 Aug 2018 19:27:47
If we're going to sell then surely January would see us get more money for him.

Agree1 Disagree0

I'm sure he does want to play but he has to get real, who would he replace? Richarlison - don't think so, Walcott - don't think so. The lad has had a couple of decent cameos but is not the finished article.

If he can't see that and is not willing to develop his game at Everton under Silva then maybe we need to cash in.

Agree there bw mate,
Lookman is good but not that good £28 million would be very good business.

I just want to congratulate the club on the new seating that was built for disabled fans. The view that most of use had from the disabled seating was poor at best but the view from the back of the Park End was fantastic ( I received an invitation to try the seats for the Southampton game ) mid week games in the winter will be so much nicer when we don't get a soaking when it rains. Well done EFC.

{Ed0333's Note - good for you mate, glad your seats have been upgraded, and the football is infinitely better this season also.

21 Aug 2018 12:50:35
I thought the view was good where I was but obviously didn't sit in every place so i'm not disagreeing with you in any way. The rain was a huge, huge problem though. Glad to hear that they have made improvements.

This is very good news, the club was meant to inform me of these things as I am slightly disabled but getting worse.
They have been non responsive to my mails, not pleased.
