Big Reg, don't stop posting. It's the fans that get behind the team that will kick start our season.
I'm personally not overly happy with what we've done in the window. Think we've made some good signings but we haven't set ourselves up to start the season well and that is not acceptable for me.
However as we proved last season, when we all get behind the team, we are the greatest fans in this league, our passion for our club is second to none and fighting between ourselves on forums is not going to help anyone.
People are frustrated and allowed to vent on match days let's try understanding that and not shutting the optimists or the pessimists down as we all want the same thing!
1.) 13 Aug 2022 19:10:13
Things will get better when we bring a forward in.
2.) 13 Aug 2022 20:22:36
We will all have to hope PB.
3.) 13 Aug 2022 20:39:32
Yes mate we can only hope, like him or not but we’ve not replaced Lukaku.
4.) 13 Aug 2022 21:06:42
Before the transfer window shuts I'd rather spend the few remaining millions we have on a clone of Tim Cahill.
5.) 13 Aug 2022 23:22:03
We’re ok, better than last year, the division is weaker than last year too (in my opinion) . Once dealings bed in, it’ll be fine, defence looks very good, just need to start scoring. I’m sure a signing is on the way, let’s judge the window at the end of the window, as we have been asked to do.
6.) 14 Aug 2022 02:09:29
Well we have improved over last year, we are only losing by one goal on average rather than two. On the other hand non of our players have scored for us and our injury record has not improved. Things can only get better.
7.) 14 Aug 2022 12:05:26
Good post that mate.
8.) 15 Aug 2022 00:17:07
Can always D:REAM!
31 Aug 2021 13:09:04
Nkoukou out on Loan it seems, beginning to get very confused here, feels like we are aiming to just have a starting 11 come the end of the window and nothing else. I really hope we put a recall clause in!
{Ed002's Note - What is a "recall clause"?}
1.) 31 Aug 2021 13:17:13
The kind where you can recall them if you get injuries - maybe the kind of clause that exists in champ manager only, I'm sure you are about to enlighten me either way🤣.
{Ed002's Note - That is not how it works. You can only recall players if the terms of the loan are not met.}
2.) 31 Aug 2021 13:24:11
My bad, I thought you could recall them in January if agreed in advance.
3.) 31 Aug 2021 13:26:31
Hi Ed, think I can shed some light on this one. In the game ‘Football Manager’ it allows you to loan players out to other teams and insert loan recall clauses in the agreement. That way during the same season you can effectively cancel the loan / recall the player and it does not effect you being able to loan them elsewhere in the same season.
…. Thanks his is all football manager of course!
4.) 31 Aug 2021 14:40:53
FIFA also, loan someone out. If you pay a small fee to the team you loaned them to, you can get him back. Its bloody brilliant. Loan out some players to rivaling clubs and then just get them back and bugger up their transfer window.
5.) 31 Aug 2021 15:38:42
Sky sports news has reported a player has been loaned "with a recall" clause.
{Ed002's Note - How could that player be registered? They also need to read the rules then.}

Didn't see that coming, Wolves were a shambles. But fair play to Craig Dawson who has drawn level with DCL as our second top scorer in the league this season.
1.) 04 Dec 2024 22:42:22
Dom did well to get into positions to score tonight. Two goals should have been his but Dawson got in the way. Would like to see him and Broja play together. Doucs is just a waste these days. He stopped being prem quality last season.
Still getting over the fact our best player is Young. Wish the others would step up and start playing like they want to stay in the prem.
2.) 05 Dec 2024 00:13:06
Doms one on one with Sa and his lack of desire to get ahead of Dawson shows just where he is as a striker.
Broja showed more in his cameo than DCl has done in the last 11 games.
I can see the derby being Doms last start for us this season if he fails to score.
3.) 05 Dec 2024 01:21:09
If Dom had 100 1v1’s against someone like Sa, how many do you think he’d score? See Lukaku I would bet at least 85, Naismith 75, Kone 50, Tosun 30, Rondon 25, with DCL, I’d actually be amazed if he scored 10. His technique of gently rolling the ball into the goalkeepers leg, is hilarious to watch honestly. Probably the worst finisher out of any prem club’s starting and backup strikers.
4.) 05 Dec 2024 06:28:26
That’s generous on Kone, Tosun and Rondon - I’d say all around 10. Dom is better than them but his return would not be that much higher.
5.) 05 Dec 2024 10:06:38
Dom got ahead of Dawson for both the goals. If your going to slag the lad off at least get it right.
6.) 05 Dec 2024 11:24:46
He did and was in the box the most I have seen him, where he should be every game.
7.) 05 Dec 2024 11:30:56
Smit666 he was ahead/ on his shoulder for both 'his' goals. Broja does look good but that side is not the side our chicken rubbish master tactician will put out against the RS.
8.) 05 Dec 2024 12:10:27
Think DCL is really bad when has any length of time to think, a lot of strikers actually are. Nunez for example. When there is no time and its reactive e. g. a header or any sort of cross he's better, probs why he did well under Ancelotti + obviously better delivery. Not sure he'll ever be a competent finisher 1 on 1 but did think he was exceptional last night and when gets a goal, might change his confidence.
02 Dec 2024 13:34:38
Have to say, if we don't beat Wolves on Wednesday i can honestly see a scenario where we don't win another game until Leicester at home in Feb.
As things currently look, Man City away looks our best bet, as everyone else we have is playing at such a higher level than us right now, it won't even be close. I'd struggle to predict a draw before Feb too. Really worried.
1.) 02 Dec 2024 13:57:38
Its worrying mate and not really into stats but we have had 2 wins all season 12 goals scored from open play in the last 32 games and get this part we have had 7 wins since December last year 7 wins wtf hahaha.
2.) 02 Dec 2024 16:24:49
If City don't pick up another point before playing us, you just know that they will get their first win against us. We always set records for the worst reasons, this will just be another.
3.) 02 Dec 2024 17:12:25
Continue with this clown and City will batter us, and we won’t beat Leicester.
4.) 02 Dec 2024 18:07:28
Very true Blue nose, look at Zerkzee, written off by most - terrible start to life in the prem and then along comes the gift that keeps on giving that is Everton.
30 Aug 2024 20:41:16
With Mangala, Ndiaye and Big Tim we now have 3 players who don't look scared of the ball every time it comes near them. That at least is promising.
1.) 30 Aug 2024 22:49:47
And Jesper EFCONE.
I will join you in your positivity mate.
May as well chuck JB in there as well.
15 Jun 2024 17:24:57
I'm sure this hypothetical question would get me shot down by one of the eds, but here goes.
In theory. What is to stop Everton and Chelsea agreeing to essentially scratch each others backs by selling DCL and Broja to each other at an inflated price in order to circumvent FFP. If we sell DCL to them for £50m and buy Broja for £50m both of us would get most of that as profit this season, and spread the rest over long contracts going forward. Win win.
{Ed002's Note - I have no idea what you are proposing. Sorry}
1.) 15 Jun 2024 23:16:17
If we both sell for the same money how does that help, we are the same.
2.) 16 Jun 2024 07:30:15
In other words swap them? I'm confused ?.
3.) 16 Jun 2024 00:04:22
Ed02
I think he suggesting both overpay for players and it looks good both books but that would just leave us both in same boat.
{Ed002's Note - Why would Chelsea be interested in doing anything like that?}
4.) 16 Jun 2024 05:45:16
What he's saying is we sell DCL for 59m
As we bought him for peanuts and he's only got 1 year left on his contract we could book the vast majority of the sale as profit in the year ending June 2024
If we then bought Broja for 50m the 50m would be spread over the term of his contract, let's say 5 years. The first 10m (50 divided by 5) would be booked in the year 24/ 25 so the year following the booking of the profit on DCL
It would help profitability for year ending 30 June 2024 but does little or nothing for sustainability i. e. avoiding Administration
I can't tell you if it is legal but it's what would happen with unrelated transfers so why not?
{Ed002's Note - I really would advide you to stay clear of the finances.}
5.) 16 Jun 2024 11:05:03
As a qualified accountant I'd be interested why you think that Ed instead of a bland dismissal. It looks to me that you are the one staying clear of explaining yourself.
{Ed002's Note - Because you clearly have no idea about football finances. And as an accountant one would have thought you would know whether it was legal or not.}
6.) 16 Jun 2024 11:32:45
Welcome to the naughty step bw mate.
7.) 16 Jun 2024 14:33:18
Let’s leave any potential illegal stuff away from the club. City and Chelsea have done illegal stuff in the past which is coming to light and I hope they are dealt with accordingly. I only wonder what skeletons are in the cupboard at other clubs. Think it was Ed01 who alluded to there being a lot of corruption at the top.
14 Apr 2024 17:11:21
Trying to channel positive thoughts here!
If we win our next 2 games, we are pretty much safe as far as I can see.
Won't be easy but both are winnable.
1.) 14 Apr 2024 17:37:46
None of them are mate but I reckon we will do it and stay up two games in hand and a good goal difference, Palace showed how to do it today.
2.) 14 Apr 2024 17:48:07
We got Forest, Brentford, Luton and of course them from across the park so it’s in our own hands, all winnable games.
3.) 14 Apr 2024 21:51:10
Don’t see us getting anything against Liverpool and hope we can win the other games - just don’t see where the goals are coming from.
This would be an ideal time for DCL to hit form and for us to do another Brighton result from last season.
4.) 15 Apr 2024 05:14:37
Dyche says 'they question us' referring to us supporters. Personally Mr Dyche it is you I question, you have no trust in our youth, you send out the same failed formation over and over again. No scooby from you and your yes men, how to change a game. Yet every game the rehearsed rhetoric comes out. We are were we are because you cannot win games, deductions wouldn't have mattered.
5.) 15 Apr 2024 13:17:32
We can win games the 4 games after 1st points deduction and the utd game bar the 2 clumsy pens we should have been 4 up at least, the 2nd half at Newcastle just a couple of examples, but dyches tactics often make us cagey and teams see this and we buckle, but to be honest your points are all valid dfs.
19 Sep 2024 21:06:01
Just remember this is all the press stirring the pot. Easy story, and what's more they know it winds us up which is about the most important thing on their agenda most days it seems.
01 Sep 2024 21:27:16
Anyway this is an Everton site, I don't think getting banned from European football is something we need to be worried about right now?.
22 Aug 2024 12:27:40
Not his biggest fan, but he does provide excellent delivery and set piece options which could be a huge boost for us. Think I'd be happy if this has legs.
25 Jul 2024 12:48:31
Feels like blatant tapping up if true. It's one thing to declare interest and unsettle someone, it's another to sabotage contract negotiations by telling someone how much you'd pay them.
24 Jul 2024 10:17:33
The Italians league has never been a great measure for players in the prem so hoping he is a player more suited to the here. Have not seen a lot of him, but he was a rookie of the year in the bundesliga so must have had something.
17 Jan 2025 18:59:33
Looking forward to Garner being fit. With him and Ndiaye we would then have 2 players who don't look scared every time they receive the ball!
16 Jan 2025 09:47:23
Having made the trip up for the first time in 30 years, I had the perfect view to see just how terrible Harrison is. I've honestly never seen anything like it, it's like he intentionally puts himself in the only places he can't receive the ball, he doesn't run in behind or come short he just stays in this middle kind of limbo it was truly awful.
02 Dec 2024 18:07:28
Very true Blue nose, look at Zerkzee, written off by most - terrible start to life in the prem and then along comes the gift that keeps on giving that is Everton.
29 Nov 2024 06:46:56
I'm exactly the same Big C, I know its full of BS but I can't help read it. Mainly so that when someone comes on here with a rumour from there that I know not to believe it.
15 Nov 2024 20:20:10
Guess the point is that this article doesn't say anything new. If Broja comes in and scores 10 goals the It will have been a good deal, if he doesn't then let's judge it then.
We don't need to make up new things to be angry about there is enough actual issues to do that already.
