Textor now back in the frame apparently. Wouldn't mind this as Palace appear to be run very well.

BrassingtonBlue

1.) 09 Aug 2024 16:49:57
Well he has to sell his shares in Palace, which he has not been able to do so far.


2.) 11 Aug 2024 12:49:04
It’s about the price BM. Already turned down 3 bids apparently so would expect him to shift it pretty easy if he’s genuinely wanting to take on Everton.

Alan Myers claims Friedkin has pulled out of buying us? Any ed's got news of this?

BrassingtonBlue

{Ed002's Note - From a takeover standpoint another option will need to be considered as Friedkin has finally stepped back. The issue surrounds two lots of debt - the debt to 777 partners which is being chased down by A Cap who leant them the money, and the debt owed to the Moshiri for loans.}


1.) 19 Jul 2024 12:36:10
I’m assuming the money owed to 777 will be the biggest problem as it can’t just be paid back to them with all the legal issues currently around them.

Would imagine we need the legal issues with 777 sorted prior to any prospective owner coming on board - however from the little I’ve seen of the 777 issue don’t think this will be resolved any time soon.

There has been mention there is enough money for the club to operate in the short term, however not sure how long a period that will be?

Ed with your knowledge what do you think will happen now? Is a fire sale on the cards to generate revenue to keep club afloat? Is administration on the cards? Or is the club stable enough to ride this mess out? Sorry for the numerous questions.

{Ed002's Note - There are legal issues, but not just related to the 777 Partners financing which is now being chased down by A Cap. The total size of the debt is huge and it somehow needs to be restructured - it is certainly larger than the value of the club.

I think the option involving MSP, Andy Bell and George Downing was the best as I said before. Friedkin cleared the MSP debt and they are now looking at investment in another club. At this point in time Rights and Media Funding need to be spoken to as their debt is secured against assets including Goodison. One option could be to look for a buyer for the new stadium who have the funding to complete it and allowing Everton to lease it back. Administration remains a huge risk still.}


2.) 19 Jul 2024 12:50:09
Thanks for the reply Ed.

Bill Kenwright and Moshiri have a lot to answer for with this complete mess that’s been created under their stewardship.

Oh for just one normal month as an Everton fan.


3.) 19 Jul 2024 13:35:48
So where do we go from here?

Can anyone save us from administration?

{Ed002's Note - It is rather back to square one again.}


4.) 19 Jul 2024 14:23:08
It's like Groundhog day being a blue. no chance they will comeback in I gather then?

{Ed002's Note - I would doubt it. The problem will be finding someone willing to take on the huge debt.}


5.) 19 Jul 2024 14:35:07
Is the going-concern value of Everton as a company higher than the liquidation value? If so surely we won’t go into administration? Surely the intangible assets and customer loyalty as well as any potential for future returns (stadium) must ensure this? Or am I well wide of the mark? Sorry Eds, I’m just very worried and very frustrated and a primary school teacher so I don’t know how the real world actually works!

{Ed002's Note - Entering Administration would give the owners time to restructure the debts whilst the club continues to operate. Everton will want to avoid it as it comes with a nine point deduction.}


6.) 19 Jul 2024 14:47:21
Apparently according to the echo two English billionaires from the are now in the frame ?‍♂️.


7.) 19 Jul 2024 15:01:48
Mosh really knows how to pick em ay?
What an absolute shower they all are.


8.) 19 Jul 2024 18:37:35
Complete shambles.


9.) 19 Jul 2024 19:31:20
Shame the MSP group have moved on. I’d take anyone who can sort us out at the moment. Would even contemplate Saudi Owners though I feel awful saying it. After everything we have endured under Moshiri, I just want him gone and the club back to competing in the Prem, not holding on each season.


10.) 20 Jul 2024 09:31:16
I doubt administration will happen as there are too many people with money involved in the club. A cap, r&m, Moshiri and now Friedkin, none of these are going to want to lose their money.

Moshiri will no doubt get a buyer just not the deal at what he wants.

On Friedkin, I've heard he done the same thing at Roma, brought in other investors and then bought the club. This could happen with us and reduce his risk as well.


11.) 20 Jul 2024 12:47:05
Let's hope Bell and Downing can swoop in and save the day.

{Ed025's Note - lets hope so Charlie, but im not ruling out Friedkin yet because its all a game when it comes to this sort of business mate..


12.) 20 Jul 2024 13:56:01
Yeah, I heard he dud the same at Roma Ed. Either way wish they'd bloody hurry up ?.


13.) 20 Jul 2024 22:00:44
Ed02, you may know this. If we have a preferred bidder but he wants to allow someone else to join the bid would the exclusivity agreement have end to allow the new party to join the bid and look over the goods?

{Ed002's Note - No. That would be welcome to the seller.}


14.) 21 Jul 2024 11:54:07
Thanks Ed.


 

 

09 Jun 2024 17:19:41
Broja from Chelsea. Like the look of this lad. Looks like we must already be selling a few.

BrassingtonBlue

1.) 09 Jun 2024 18:01:01
I hope and suspect its a load of nonsense. 30m for what?


2.) 09 Jun 2024 18:27:09
Not for me. he had 1 good season then done nothing. £30 million what a joke.


3.) 09 Jun 2024 18:28:04
Yep vastly overpriced Scottish for me too. Much prefer a loan with option to buy.


4.) 09 Jun 2024 18:45:58
The echo is reporting it’s not true at this time no bids submitted until the ownership is sorted.


5.) 09 Jun 2024 18:59:19
I really hope the days of spending that sort of money on overpriced crap are over.

Btw, does anyone think after a pre season with us, Beto will turn a corner?

{Ed025's Note - i cant see it myself ST, i just hope when he does turn a corner its on European soil mate and he is playing elsewhere..


6.) 09 Jun 2024 20:33:55
Broja is a much better player than Beto. Lad was just getting into the Chelsea team when injury set him back. Is he worth 30m probably not. But would imagine whatever we pay would be in staged payments anyway.
Lads only 22. What happened to you lot wanting young hungry players then?


7.) 10 Jun 2024 01:08:36
He couldn't even get into Fulham's 11, nvm Chelsea's.


8.) 10 Jun 2024 10:39:37
Not been remotely impressed by anything I've seen of him. Absolutely the level of player we get linked with and spot on price but hopefully we'll be forced to let this rip off go as we definitely can't afford it.


9.) 10 Jun 2024 12:01:30
30 million I'd be shocked if we spend b4 we sell, but he's not worth it! I'd be worried at 20 million tbh!


10.) 10 Jun 2024 12:33:34
I might of been abit harsh given that all forwards need the service and the time on the pitch. But not at £30 million though.


11.) 10 Jun 2024 14:14:56
Broja didn't have 1 good season, he had 2 good months at Southampton. 30m would be ridiculous but it'd be just like us. tbh he does seem better than Beto but we can't afford to waste any money. Would rather give Chermiti more game time.


12.) 12 Jun 2024 00:50:33
No thanks to broja on a perm. Loan then fine.


 

 

23 Jan 2023 12:42:17
So now it's come out that Frank had a falling out with a few of the players after the Southampton game. This resulted in Dacoure being dropped and left out of the squad.
If this is true then there is no hope for Frank. Sadly player power always wins these days,

BrassingtonBlue

1.) 23 Jan 2023 13:20:40
Totally agree, as much as I don't like frank he is the boss and is in charge and players should show a bit of respect and do as they are told. Player have to much power and that is a massive problem with today's game.


2.) 23 Jan 2023 13:32:34
How dare Dacoure show some passion and fight for the team!


3.) 23 Jan 2023 14:28:23
Show it on the pitch and he may have a point. Not put in a decent performance in months. More like him and Keane have spat the dummies out for not playing but don’t perform when they get a chance. Lamps had every right to push them aside.


4.) 23 Jan 2023 14:41:02
All depends on what doucore has said - if it’s to tell Frank some home truths about how bad the team and tactics are then I’d make doucore captain not bin him to the reserves!


5.) 23 Jan 2023 14:42:24
It’s a pity he never did it in the pitch.


6.) 23 Jan 2023 14:46:18
He argued over tactics and it seems he wasn't the only one as did the fans we could all see his tactics were poor or are us fans meant to show respect and say nothing and watch us slip into oblivion.


7.) 23 Jan 2023 20:52:31
Original AJ - well that would be a first. Have watched him amble round the pitch not giving a toss for years now so forgive me for not wanting to slap him on the back for "showing passion" by arguing with his manager in front of teammates because he's not getting a game anymore.


 

 

26 Dec 2020 19:26:22
Anyone know why we have two keepers on the subs bench?

How about going in for Tom Fellows and throwing Holgate in as part of the deal. Holgate playing regular for West Brom, and is apparently keen to join them.

BrassingtonBlue

1.) 20 Jan 2025 18:14:04
All up for that.


2.) 20 Jan 2025 18:35:48
Isn’t Holgate out of contract at the end of the season anyway?


3.) 20 Jan 2025 19:09:22
Sshhh don't tell them.


4.) 20 Jan 2025 19:53:58
Fellows is off to Sheffield United mate.


5.) 20 Jan 2025 20:14:34
Tom Cannon that should be oops.


6.) 20 Jan 2025 22:28:49
That’s why we should go for it now JB.


 

 

18 Jan 2025 12:42:30
Question, are Lyon any good?
Because we seem to be getting linked with half their team. Already have O'Brien, now looks like Nuamah's on his way, and latest rumour is Cherki being looked at too.

BrassingtonBlue

1.) 18 Jan 2025 13:06:34
Has Thelwell got a holiday home there?


2.) 18 Jan 2025 13:17:07
Probably better than us.


3.) 18 Jan 2025 13:39:54
If Cherki is available, I would pay double what we are for Nuamah. The lad is pure class.


4.) 18 Jan 2025 14:03:45
Absolutely BlueNose. Far better equipped teams linked to him. Class.


5.) 18 Jan 2025 14:05:50
Depserate for us to sign someone, but i'm scared of this nuamah transfer, purely because its Thelwells signing. I really hope he is actually decent, fulham wanted him in the summer so maybe that's a good sign.


6.) 18 Jan 2025 15:23:58
Seems all bark and no bite to me ST. Much better that we could go after imo.


7.) 18 Jan 2025 15:29:55
I actually would take any of their attacking mid/ wing players over him gents.

Cherki
Mikautadze
Fofana

All better.


8.) 18 Jan 2025 15:54:09
Linked with their players because they have to sell players.


9.) 18 Jan 2025 16:40:47
Sadly lyon are crap, they have been in decline for a number of seasons. Bit like efc!


10.) 18 Jan 2025 17:05:46
I would definitely love Cherki and Mikautadze, there are reports circling Cherki has £18.6m release clause! Problem is convincing some of these into the project
John Textor had a rant the other day because at present Lyon are relegated due to their financials so people are dropping low bids
Cherki is definitely the sort of player I would want as a number 10 pulling the strings.


11.) 18 Jan 2025 17:44:27
Yeah i am worried when Thelwell has anything to do with it. Cherki would certainly fit the bill.


12.) 18 Jan 2025 18:43:54
Ryan cherki would be a perfect example to buy good player but cause lyon are struggling that doesn't mean there players are bad to buy i always think there's gems out there an listen am not going to say were going to buy him but if he came to prem an ripped it up be bigger clubs will buy him from us but long they perform put shifts just part an parcel of football but if he does job for us or anyone else and they think are club are not reaching expectations that they deem were not reaching ie europe league champions league trophies then long that player has performed week in week out an wants join club that are doing that an we make profit then happy days in my opinion.


13.) 18 Jan 2025 21:22:12
I would be happy with that as well Andy, I would want to make loads of sales every summer but if we build a model of acquiring players who are young and can develop to then sell on firstly we become more financially sound and secondly players will see us as a team giving opportunities and development but don’t stifle their ambitions
I would hope we are actually back up challenging though as part of this so most might want to stay as we are matching their ambitions, that’s what we need to build towards ?.


 

 

12 Jan 2025 12:02:41
Am I missing something here? All the so called experts saying the reason we are near the bottom was not Dyches fault, it was because his strikers were not scoring.
Did any of these people actually watch the way we play. One player up front on his own trying to cope with two defenders, while heading on lumped up balls from the keeper.
This is the first thing that has to be binned now. You can still have one up front, but you need pace out wide to support them, and you need a centre midfielder who can actually pass a ball.
We have Dacoure who can't pass a ball five yards, and we have Harrison who runs around in all directions but forward, and Ndiaye who though technically gifted is wasted out wide, and can easily drift out of the game.
Will be interesting to see how Moyes sets up the team going forward.

BrassingtonBlue

{Ed025's Note - spot on for me Brass..


1.) 12 Jan 2025 12:30:00
Been saying the same myself. Annoys me when some people say he did well with the players he had. Jack Charlton took a team of bang average players to the World Cup finals using tactics and motivation suited to them.


2.) 12 Jan 2025 13:12:33
Good post BB mate.


3.) 12 Jan 2025 13:23:42
It is incredible really, its the height of lazyness. For the amount of money Sky charge, you'd think they'd have someone on who knows the situation.

I also like how none of the pundits mention Dyche saying to owners, I've taken the team as far as I can.

And Paul Merson, good jesus! Never go back, well Moyes went back to West Ham is arguablly their best ever manager. All i know is if he says that then, Everton will be fine, they will rocket up the league and then they will all have a stiffy over what a great appointment it was and Dyche had to go.


4.) 12 Jan 2025 14:02:15
I would personally like to karate chop Merson in the throat and Sutton and Darren Bent.


5.) 12 Jan 2025 14:03:18
The chattering football classes seem to have a habit of talking up a sacked manager ''the team let him down'' the defenders were way too slack and unprofessional at times'' and so on.
Taking into account the pattern of playing style or tactics, were the manager's remit and last word on the subject flies over their heads.


6.) 12 Jan 2025 14:09:15
Old boys club, they always stick up for the managers no matter how arrogant they are.


7.) 12 Jan 2025 14:29:35
They just preventing there being awkwardness when they cross paths on future media duties.

As stupid as punditory is, we all listen to it. Merson actually makes me laugh. When he says it’s going to rain, I reach for my Ray-bans ?.


 

 

28 Dec 2024 11:30:15
People slamming DCL constantly yet in Harrison and Dacoure we have two midfielders with no goals and no assists. Not sure any striker would thrive given those stats.
Apparently Dyche has said that Harrison is a great trainer with two great feet. Perhaps he could use those feet to walk back to Leeds.

BrassingtonBlue

1.) 28 Dec 2024 12:32:04
The 3 of them can go mate.


2.) 28 Dec 2024 13:19:03
Agree with GB. All 3 are old news. Get them all gone and £310k off the wage bill every week.

The difference between DCL and the other 2 is that he constantly gets excuses drawn up for him for how s*** he is, whereas the other 2 just get pelted, especially Harrison.

If it isn't already clear that the DCL cannot finish to save his dinner, I do not know what more proof anyone would need. When you now add the fact that he can't even be bothered and runs round half-arsed, doing just enough to appear as if he is "working", it makes it all the more clear that we need to get shut.

Apparently we don't make chances for him but then why do I keep seeing him miss clear and obvious goalscoring opportunities as the weeks go by. That isn't to mention that any striker worth his salt can fashion chances out of nothing.

Can't wait to see him gone and the talk about him ends.


3.) 28 Dec 2024 13:42:42
With those three leading the charge, no wonder we haven’t been prolific this season or last.


4.) 28 Dec 2024 14:28:49
You do realise that we won't be saving 310k don't you, as players will have to come in to replace these three.


5.) 28 Dec 2024 14:52:06
New era, new broom, new players sweep clean coming up, can’t wait.


6.) 28 Dec 2024 14:55:48
Blue nose you really do need to let it go, I made that comment months ago and this is the second time you've brought it up, problem with you is you think your a manager with all the answers, sorry your another clueless fan just shouting your mouth off to anyone who will listen same as us all, moan moan moan, the best thing you can do is go down to goodison, knock on the door and ask if you can tell the club what's best for them but when they laugh just keep writing to them. saying the same thing as that I'm sure will make them realise your correct, dyche for priminister, oh sorry that was a joke but please don't keep bringing it up every post so you feel relevant.


7.) 28 Dec 2024 15:58:09
DCL has never been prolific in front of goal but let's not make stuff up just to fit your narrative. He does a lot of the dog work, he's constantly having to hold the ball up, half the time out wide, waiting for others to join play. From the forwards we've had available all season, he's had to play from the start as the only other option has been beto. He simply can't make the ball stick, loses it and then we are defending once again. Broja should provide the competition for dcl now and maybe you will then get your wish. But, from the way we set up our formation and patterns of play, don't expect any forward to be banging them in every game.


8.) 28 Dec 2024 16:18:26
think dcl is defiantly not going to sign a new contract my own opinion think he has either agreed a verbal agreement to join a new club or just refusing to sign one think that's why he's not trying more than he should on doucoura think his legs are gone think he is better of infront of the back 4 instead of behind the striker plus he's on 130 k a week so if we can manage to shift him then put us in better situation with the wage bill and jack harrison don't care what dyche has said he's nowhere near worth 30 mill this lad can only run can't take a man on can't cross a ball and can't shoot so send him back to leeds i like his commitment he does chase the ball but that doesn't justify the fee of a 30 mil loan agreement in place for permanant transfer to everton keanes in that bracket aswell 80k a week so think we need start shifting these on and buying sensibly younger talent from lower leagues or even abroad.


9.) 28 Dec 2024 17:26:59
Every professional footballer with half a brain and good people helping navigate a short career must manoeuvre the free transfer at some point in their prime. This is that time. DCL is due respect but it's over.


10.) 28 Dec 2024 17:32:08
It wouldn't be far off Brass. Chermitti for DCL and Garner/ Irog for Doucoure. Would only need to find a winger to replace Harrison and I bet we could find one better for almost half of what he is on.

Bluepasty - wow the hypocrisy and arrogance stinks hahah.

You are speaking about ME wanting to be relevant (which I couldn't care less about) , yet you think my comments on DCL about being crap are based on something YOU said months ago. Pure unadulterated delusions of grandeur. Trust me, you do not occupy that much space in my head and news flash - you are not the only person who said we don't create enough chances for DCL. There is a whole other world outside of this site. Twitter, Toffee TV etc have plenty saying the same thing.

Please tell me how I think I am a manager with all the answers when all I am doing is stating the obvious fact that DCL is a crap finisher and the statistics only support this statement.

Who is moaning. It is called an opinion?

Sorry to break it to you but I don't remember your Dyche for priminister (or Prime Minister) comment. I hope this doesn't shatter your egotistical cry for relevance.

Bluepotato, I don't make things up to fit a narrative, if you think that deep into the opinions of others, you crack on mate. I simply say what is apparent in performances. Perhaps you should go an watch the City game back and look at the trotting around, the half-arsed jumps into the air to win the ball. Speaking about narratives, a great one is that DCL is this fantastic and hard working hold-up player that never stops running - it is laughable.

Broja came on in the same game of football and showed more in 20 minutes than DCL managed in the whole game. A number of times the ball came into him with a man on his arse and he either won a freekick or showed a classy first touch and peeled away to get us on the counter. Why is it that he is able to do it with the same players around him? Oh, I don't know, maybe because he has a modicum of footballing ability.

I am not epecting anybody to bang them in every game. That doesn't happen at the best clubs, unless your name ends in Salah. It is obvious that this manager and the way we play make it a difficult task for anyone but I know for a fact that if we had any of Welbeck, Wood, Cunha, Wissa, even a half-dead Jamie Vardy on the end of the chances DCL has had this season, they would be on at least triple the goals he is.

What I posted isn't even out there, it is an opinion that a lot of supporters agree with. Absolutely hilarious that it has garnered some of those responses tbh hahah!


11.) 28 Dec 2024 17:41:19
We can moan about our attacking players until the cows come home. They will not thrive under SD, it really is that simple. Give them Martinez as coach and they’ll look different players. Their movement will be better and their finishing probably too. But with the same coach our defence will be utterly clueless and Branthwaite will look like Keane.

We had a coach that can balance the two but he went to Madrid. We need to find another like him then we can start to move forward.

I would fix the Dyche situation as a priority as I just don’t know how good or bad some of our players actually are.


12.) 28 Dec 2024 18:27:33
With you there BlueNose mate been said soooooooooo many times it’s a game about opinions eh.


13.) 28 Dec 2024 18:51:28
Really is GB mate but if you have an opinion that differs to somebody else's these days, then more often than not they tend to take offence, rather than argue their points to the contrary.

Calvert-Lewin’s finishing is routinely below my expectations of an Everton no.9. I am not huge on the modern stats like XG but there is a time and a place. Since 2018-19, DCL has scored 46 goals from an xG of 61, an underperformance of 15. I doubt there is another striker in the league with a bigger drop off.

Whilst it is true that we don't create a constant flow of chances, I would say that some of them are very big chances. Maybe it is fair to say that he is extremely wasteful when he gets opportunities, albeit not many.


14.) 28 Dec 2024 20:07:18
Put bluntly mate he could hit a barn door.


15.) 28 Dec 2024 20:12:53
The question I have BlueNose is who’s responsible for his slump? And I can’t look beyond the coaching staff. When he had Dunc and Carlo he was excellent and scored goals. His headed goals were some of the best in the league.

I agree with you that he’s not performing but I’m not laying all the blame at his door.

Fact is he’s either going in a few days or a few months. All our thoughts now need to be in a replacement for him but more importantly a coaching refresh. We will soon see the short term benefits of a new owner.


16.) 28 Dec 2024 20:33:22
I think most of our current Team are simply not good enough mate, Harrison, DCL, Doucoure, Gueye, Beto, Keane, and a couple more, we need to get rid.


17.) 28 Dec 2024 20:35:29
I think you are right Toffee Ace. Staff, teammates, set-up etc will all have a part to play but equally, I think his head grew far too big after the call-ups and he thinks we are beneath his level, totally forgetting that he is a large part of why we have finished where we have in recent seasons.

For me this current form isn't a slump. I just think the 18 months under Carlo were exceptional and he was over performing, add to the fact that everything was armed for him to be a success because Carlo knew we were very limited and it was our best route for goals.

The lad clearly rates himself very highly. I don't mind it if you are performing and others are letting you down e. g. Cunha at Wolves but he is as much to blame as the rest for our recent league finishes.


18.) 29 Dec 2024 11:19:54
BN, we all know his finishing has been poor and nobody can really argue with that, and it's obvious that you dislike him as a player. But you seem to be of the opinion that he doesn't offer anything to the team and I believe that is wrong and plays into your opinion that he's poor all round. The ball is constantly lumped to him to hold up with little options alongside him. From what we have had available this season forward wise, he is the best man for that job. Broja might be a better option now he's fit but beto isn't effective at this.
The style of football is the main problem as we don't set out to score many goals in a game.

Broja must look like a loose cannon to SD, he has that 'bit between the teeth' demeanour lol and like DCL he will IMO be a true asset under a manager that likes at least a modicum of offensive play, right now I think if I was SD, I would welcome any player criticism as a distraction away from his one dimensional and prosaic tactics.

Too much ignorant bull by bluenose. We're going to get rid of 3 and save 330k a week by replacing them by better players that will cost nothing

Our biggest problem is selling players and replacing them with weaker players

Is that hard to understand that.


21.) 29 Dec 2024 16:18:29
Evidently you are to ignorant to read properly BR.

I didn’t say anything about replacing them with better players for nothing. I said that we already have Chermiti for Dom and Garner or Irogbunem for Doucoure in the 8/ 10. Granted they are injured but hopefully both are back soon.

This wasn’t a long term vision, it was speaking specifically about this window and getting us to summer to take a more calculated look at recruitment and hopefully with a new manager in.

310k worth of wages is a very handsome amount to bring new players in with. Young and up and coming talent that won’t demand anywhere near that amount and hopefully will actually improve the team from a performance aspect, given the right recruitment.

Is it that hard to understand.

Anyone else think that Micky might be struggling given what's going on in his homeland? Can't be easy for the lad seeing as he probably still has family over there, and would imagine hears a lot more about what is going on there than we do.
Prior to all this happening I felt we had signed a good attacking full back who had a good bit of pace. Now he just looks leggy and not really switched on. Just a thought.

{Ed025's Note - im not sure Brass i would think playing and training would be a welcome distraction if anything mate, he is very in and out for me like he marked Saka out of the game against Arsenal yet got ripped to pieces by Savinho yesterday, maybe he is told not to marauder up the wing by mr negative..


1.) 27 Dec 2024 18:42:35
Imo under dyche most our players have good and bad days. He came on leaps and bounds early last season then trailed off. Easy to point finger to certain players when others are just as bad. He might just need some competition fir hus spot. Either rise to challenge or get shipped out.


2.) 27 Dec 2024 19:46:23
I believe that any fullback needs a constant player in front of them who can help out when needed and they can then build an understanding.


3.) 27 Dec 2024 20:17:38
Incredibly limited. I can't think of a strong part of his game. Can't knock him as you can see he cares but he is dreadful.

Ndiaye stood Savinho up yesterday and his body positioning was exceptional, so much so that Savinho bottled taking him on altogether and went inside to a teammate. In contrast, every time he was 1 v 1 with Myko, he butchered him.

Myko offers absolutely nothing going forward, I think he has 4 assists in 4 seasons, which with the way the game is played these days is laughable. Defensively, he is consistently caught out of position in games and lacks the agility and turn of foot to be successful in 1 v 1 situations. Upgrade needed urgently if we want to progress at all next season.

Sorry not having all that about his country is at war there president is always abroad wanting money uysk goes on about it all the time give your £100 million from the fury fight to your country. war is bad i agree but don't give me the sob story fed up of it Sorry BB. he gets paid to do a job.


5.) 27 Dec 2024 21:06:28
He needs to be better for sure. His attacking play is never going to be good under SD so needs to be defensively strong. He’s not strong so I agree he needs upgrading.


6.) 27 Dec 2024 22:22:55
His father is literally on the front line - I agree not great - initially thought he was better first part of season - but besides that if your father was on front line of war would your life / job not be effected.


7.) 28 Dec 2024 07:39:21
Very naive to think his homeland situation is not affecting him big time. Bobslad makes an excellent point on FB support.


8.) 28 Dec 2024 09:00:45
His misses is preggers to. Think he does as well as he can but he's not top quality and never will be. Just good honest pro.


9.) 28 Dec 2024 09:18:57
Ron Mac very very wrong mate.


10.) 28 Dec 2024 09:49:10
Each to there own DFS.


11.) 28 Dec 2024 16:36:54
Yes and yours was wrong.


12.) 29 Dec 2024 00:04:24
My opinion mate.

Would make no sense to sell him now. Broja out, Chermiti out, and Beto not good enough and probably on his way.
Hopefully the change made in our playing style will play to his strengths and we get to see more goals. If that happens then he may be offered a new contract with a pay rise.

If they are true supporters they will not be gutted. Would imagine the majority of supporters will just be happy seeing progression.

Love Richy but I remember when he struggled playing the loan striker role. The tactic needs changing otherwise it doesn't matter who the striker is.

Strange one Dixon Mike, thought the guy looked decent when he played. Yes he was a little green but felt would improve given time. And that seems to be the problem right now, we don't give younger players time.
A perfect example was Sunday mate. 3-0 up would have been the perfect time to bring Armstrong on for Dacoure, not because Dacoure was playing badly (not allowed to say that) , but because it would have allowed the lad to play with a bit of freedom and show us what he is about.
Instead we bring Young on, what new could we learn about him, and Keane why?
If we are serious about developing youth then we have to get them involved with the first team. O'Brien was deemed not yet ready, but he looked pretty comfortable to me.

Sorry but thanking a player for keeping us up. If the player had done his job properly then we wouldn't have been involved in another relegation battle.
Don't need to look at stats to see how poor Dacoure is, just watch him on the pitch. Are things really that bad now that we are expected to praise players who just run around a lot. Dacoure, Harrison, Beto all run around a lot but offer very little. But hey as a supporter we are supposed to praise them, really?

I'm sure there will be a clause in there that says he can leave if they get relegated.

Exactly BN we need more than willing runners who create nothing. Dacoure is playing in a key position, one were we need a creative player. We have a player who just runs around a bit and creates nothing, and it is very apparent that after sixty odd minutes he gets slower and slower.
