Branthwaite is surely worth a go at this point, coming off the back of a good loan.

Keane and Tarkowski aren't good enough at this level.

Yep, think Forest will be in the mix for the bottom 3 too.

Think they at least have a goal threat about them with Awonyi, Gibbs-White and Johnson. Think they’ll pick up enough points at home again.

Father in law who’s a blue is round so having to watch this. Everton are awful. Villa should be out of sight.

Is he booooiiing yet?

Christ they're so so bad. This could be 4 or 5-0 already.

Can't wait for them to win one or two of their last 10 and still stay up because Luton, Sheffield and someone else will be worse.

Exactly. I don't get the idea of seeing if he can play on or not. Like last week with Romero, if you have a concussion, then you should be getting immediately subbed off.

Just before he was subbed, he sneezed and you could see he was in agony, his face is really sore.

Brighton are decent + Wolves have even more trouble scoring than Everton.

I'd fancy them for a point at Everton next week.

Is Philippe Coutinho the biggest transfer loss of all time

Reading that we actually received £138m for his when all the add-ons were paid

He was sold to Villa for £17m

£121m down

Other contenders

Antoine Griezmann £80m

Romelu Lukaku ( I can imagine when he leaves £60m + )

Paul Pogba £89m

Eden Hazard £89m

Brighton will be well up for it after that shocker they had at home against the Bitters end of last season.

44 minutes and not a single chance. They have serious issues both ends of the pitch.

Luckily for Wolves they face Everton next week in an early relegation six-pointer.

Groan from inside the stadium when 9 minutes was held up then, which presumably was from Everton section, having 9 extra minutes to endure from this shite.

I’m not getting sucked in to this I think they will finish bottom of the rest. More interesting will be who their next manager is.

That's fair enough, Jill. They're really not going to improve on Dyche though. Will be hilarious when Fat Sam's phone rings.

In any top side, Pickford would be considered a decent shot stopper with a lot of question marks around his attitude and decision-making. For Everton? He's easily their best player.

He is a decent shot stopper? He is the worst keeper in the premier league or any top league in Europe by a country mile.

Michael Keane might well be the worst player in the league, just an horrific level of ability.

It was more their defence getting lax when Everton had those chances.

Statto Red · « **Reply #593 on:** August 20, 2023, 02:54:31 pm »

I thought Pickers would be long gone by now, testament to his arrogance [& shitness] that he's still their & no one seems to want to buy him, he can pull of the odd worldie, but makes far too many blunders to be a top keeper, can't believe he's England's no 1 keeper.

Redsnappa · « **Reply #594 on:** August 20, 2023, 02:54:59 pm »

Lucas Digne's crossing this half has been first class.

See, that's a mistake. They should want to bag an extra few goals for GD if nothing else. Everton are shit, but they're capable of mugging a complacent team.

If Wolves get anything against Everton, they're in trouble for sure.

It's mind boggling that he's still England's #1 when there's at least 4 English keepers better than him.

Two everton bookings in the last five minutes, I'll be surprised if they finish with 11 men.
