Everton banter 10

26 Jan 2026 19:26:42
We could be a point behind our neighbours with a win tonight, wonder what their Team cost compared to ours.

26 Jan 2026 19:37:53
Not bothered and it will not be as easy as you make out. Leeds are a good side. Dry January is killing me nerves are shattered.

26 Jan 2026 19:46:34
Don’t agree I think Leeds are very poor and can see them getting relegated again.

{Ed025's Note - i have seen quite a lot of them this season GB and i think they are a decent side mate..

26 Jan 2026 21:23:57
If Leeds are very poor we must be shocking.

26 Jan 2026 18:59:40
I don't believe that we should let any player leave or go out on loan this window including Armstrong. We have seen how injuries, red cards and an accumulation of yellow cards can leave us short on numbers.

Even if we recruit the badly needed right-back and striker we should keep everyone, well if by some miracle that happens maybe let Beto go but no one else.

26 Jan 2026 19:17:59
Would keep Armstrong for sure, we get £15 million for Tim would let him go mate.

26 Jan 2026 20:16:58
First 15 minutes and we don’t look good!

26 Jan 2026 21:04:15
An we look worse the second 15 mins and worse again last 15 minutes so basically we been crap for first 45 minutes.

26 Jan 2026 18:54:45
Back four stays the same with Ndiaye and McNeil out wide. Nice to see Armstrong keeps his place, Rohl a little unlucky to lose his. Actually got a strong bench with only one keeper.

26 Jan 2026 19:14:47
Exactly the team I would expect Moyes to pick. My prediction is 3-1 for us with all four goals being scored by Everton players or ex-Everton players.

26 Jan 2026 19:38:48
I will take 1-0.

26 Jan 2026 19:52:32
So would I mate.

26 Jan 2026 16:22:08
Potentially selling Tim and loaning Armstrong back out seems like a disaster waiting to happen. Basically the only position in the squad we have some depth, but we'd be putting that at massive risk.

Plus, I think Tim has huge potential and Armstrong has been one of our best players since we recalled - he doesn't need gametime in Preston, he needs it for us.

{Ed025's Note - im with you Alex..

26 Jan 2026 18:24:29
Whos idea is it, and who would ok such a thing?

26 Jan 2026 19:01:05
Well that lineup is as I called it, mind you doesn't take a genius. Just look at that bench.

26 Jan 2026 15:52:06
Marmoush bids at around 26m from Spurs and Fenerbahce. Great price that is. Give them McNeil and bring the price down to 25.5 million.

26 Jan 2026 16:48:41
Decent fee that, I guess wages would be an issue. Plus we can't offer European football at present.

26 Jan 2026 11:54:46
If Armstrong is returned to Preston, might play another 20 games, but remain at Everton, he may only get 5/6 appearances of the bench.
But if those 5/6 appearances, help you see out a game your winning 1.0, those 5/6 games and those points my be the difference between a European spot or not.


In those circumstances, it would be crazy, not to keep the player, I don't have a Cristal ball but why take the chance?

{Ed025's Note - especially with Jack being out for a good while AB..

26 Jan 2026 12:13:44
Forget sticking him on the bench, just play him.

26 Jan 2026 10:44:19
Wish we had tried for Ethan Nwaneri. Scored on his debut for Marseille over the weekend and the goal showed exactly what he would have offered. Pace, intent, composure and goals outside the box.

26 Jan 2026 11:56:55
Do we know the Club haven't tried.

26 Jan 2026 12:13:46
We are probably still looking at him but haven't made our mind up yet.

26 Jan 2026 13:11:08
Love it Dev.

26 Jan 2026 13:12:55
If we had, he would be in an Everton shirt. Able to offer him PL exp, Arteta knows the club/Moyes, almost guaranteed minutes with Jack's injury.

26 Jan 2026 07:30:43
At last footy tonight I'm with Nick on this one 3-1 for us blues, going to be a good night, looking forward to this one.

26 Jan 2026 10:08:45
I think it'll be closer that a 2 goal margin GB,

2-1 for me. It would be nice to see us win at home, that journey home is much better when we win and it's been a while.

{Ed025's Note - im with you Jase, i think we will sneak it mate because Leeds play a high tempo game that will suit us down to the ground, like it or not we are a counter attacking team and a good one at that mate..

26 Jan 2026 12:25:00
Cmon Ed we got a couple of our top boys back mate they will be buzzing after AFCOM, add to that our fantastic win last week I think we will trounce them, they are relegation bound.

{Ed025's Note - i thought that at the start of the season GB but hey have really improved mate, this will not be an easy game at all..

26 Jan 2026 07:39:05
{Ed's Note - Klopps new glasses has posted a new article entitled, Slot's Liverpool Project Unravels Despite Early Promise

26 Jan 2026 00:43:28
Looking forward to seeing the magician back in Blue against Leeds.

26 Jan 2026 07:32:20
3-1 for this one mate carry our winning form on from Villa.

26 Jan 2026 08:24:45
Massive game GB. If we win tonight it will put us ahead of the rest of the pack and they all have tough games next (bar the Mackems) . We then have a decent set of fixtures until the Arsenal game. With JB, KDH, Ndiaye and Gana back, hopefully we can be well within a chance of Europe mate.

Won't be an easy game against these. Work hard all over the pitch and we know our recent home woes.

Hopefully Barry continues his decent form mate.

26 Jan 2026 12:04:18
The only way JB slots back in, is O'Brien at RB or benched.

{Ed025's Note - or Tarks is benched..

25 Jan 2026 23:33:08
Braiden Graham. Scored against man city tonight and played on wing. 12 goals in 19 games for U21'S this term. He's versatile. Mainly a striker but can play no10 or either wing. Hopefully we get to see him soon.

26 Jan 2026 05:40:27
Give him 20 mins tonight against Leeds Dentielad.

26 Jan 2026 06:56:39
I wish but it will more likely Barry and then Beto.

26 Jan 2026 07:58:45
He would have to lie about his age to get a game. Or wear a goalie shirt.

26 Jan 2026 10:14:09
Goalie shirt, that cracked me up BMD.
