Premier League — Matchweek 6

2-0 up after 20 minutes.

Btw anyone else got problems getting onto ToffeeWeb? The derby it just would not work. Now it's slow.

No problems with any other sites or apps.

If I knew more about Google Analytics, I might be able to figure out what is happening.

But shockingly, we don't seem to have any technical support from the new owners at weekends!

Maybe I'll ask my new friend, Gemini...

I was gutted about the derby and ToffeeWeb failing. But I appreciate you have your work cut out and put in so much time.

I live in Spain. Don't know if that's a factor. How can a football site not have support at a weekend that's just nuts... can we storm their cloud?

Brentford cruising and easily have had a 3rd. Now cruising and Man Utd now in control.

Sorry, I never did get to see your derby match report. Not that you could do much to reverse the negative vibes that resulted. You should be able to just post it as any article submission.

I emailed you but it bounced back.

Deserved yellow card finally flashed in his rat-looking face, either for the foul committed by him, or for one protest too many.

Good save by the ex RS keeper.

I've just had a quick look, and no discernible bias. But the stats are difficult to tabulate, for instance if Liverpool get their fifth goal disallowed unfairly, that's hardly the same as us having a last-minute winner chalked off. I'm not sure how they weigh the significance of the individual interventions.

I wonder if Amorin has Potter on speed dial?

West Ham will improve under Nuno. Interesting season this one, I think, and I don't expect to see the 3 promoted teams go back down. I think there is room for a giant to fall this season so it's imperative that we look after ourselves... starting with a win on Monday night!

If that wasn't a goalscoring oppo and a red then there must be no more reds forever, or VAR have plummeted the depths of useless even further.

Ratty Fernandes... lol.

Great to see one of the Big Six getting some.

Burnley and Wolves will struggle but I can't seen either being as bad as the likes of Southampton were or Luton previously.

Thomas Frank we should’ve got.

I’m not convinced Nuno would be a good fit for us.

Glasner and Iraola are two excellent managers who would join Everton if we were to approach them and pay them.

Both have bigger fish to fry than a club like Everton who have been in the bottom half the league most of the past 30 years

So as for Monday, just expect West Ham to park the bus and try and dig out a 0-0 draw.

No pic of Sarr. Just the headline Liverpool trail to Palace. Did they not mean Palace in front against Liverpool. It's unbearable to watch a game they play even when their losing.

West Ham were always going to sack Potter. He is lucky to have been associated with Brighton - since their excellent club management (and recruitment) made him look a lot better than he is. Hurzeler might be in that category too. He's got a lot to prove. Nuno Espirito Santos is a good fit for West Ham - and not unlike Moyes in many respects. They will be fine now.

As others are saying, Iraola and Glasner are both good managers - especially overcoming big sales this summer. Impressive start for both after losing key players. However, it is very early days and we could still finish above both clubs.

Would they come to Everton?

Probably not Iraola. He must be in with a shout of the Man Utd job when Amorim is sacked (which must be soon now). And if it's not Man Utd - he'd have other options.

Glasner seems more realistic.

But the real thing that will make the difference is further spending. Everyone can see that the squad still has glaring issues with it. We didn't / couldn't spend a lot on the rebuild this summer and it was always obvious it would take 2 or 3 windows with TFG to fix the very serious damage done by Moshiri.

I am sure this is obvious to TFG too.

So going to the disruption and cost of sacking a manager who seems to be performing broadly as expected - and to then replace him with a manager who is unlikely to perform materially better would seem a very unlikely move.
