  • Emery is about the only decent manager that has come through, and looks capable of moving the club forward and keeping them there in a very long time. Hes done well in the market in Rogers, Duran, Tielemans, but the core of the players were already there. He is an exception rather than rule, and highlights that finding a top quality is a real challenge. Chelsea, United are in the market, City, Tottenham, Newcastle perhaps will be sooner or later. If I was united, id be in for him. Hes a bit of an odd fish, but I think is a better bet than Glasnser. Based on the clear pecking order of clubs, it highlights the odds are against Everton finding an Emery type to take us to the promised land. We arent a magical pull, and we are all chasing the same quality. That's the reality of elite competitive sport....

  • Just to sign off before heading down to game Darren Annika, John My problem with your posts is your criticism of Moyes for the team he isn’t going to pick. As I said in my earliest post including Travers was mischievous to set a controversial tone. Regarding the last few games, O Brian’s and Kwan’s brain farts and Jacks hissy fit cost us points not the manager. However if Moyes doesn’t pick a team similar to what I outlined above without mitigating circumstances I’ll be first in AFTER the game to criticise him....

  • Moyes alluded that he knew the members of Keane’s appeal panel and was equally surprised by their decision Is the panel picked in secrecy or are it’s members known. If so I wish Moyes would have named them...

  • Darren If you have read any of my post I always put my cards on the table. But here is my old school team from the players available As someone who does not know why Patterson is so out of favour with all our past managers I would opt for Pickford Patterson O'Brien Tarkowski Mykolenko Garner Iroegbunam Armstrong Dibling Beto McNeil Caveat heee is Dibling must work harder to support Paterson defensively. Sunderland have very fast technically skilled wingers Alternatively if no faith in Patterson Rohl or Garner at full back instead of Patterson if Garner at full back then Rohl in midfield. My main gripe with many of the posts is plenty of negative criticism before the game. My post criticised the defeatist sentiments expressed. My main criticism of Everton is our pace of play and dare I say it Jack doesn’t help. Maybe without him we might move the ball fast and give our strikers better chances Hope that response from and old schooler answers your post Let’s ta...
