Makes you think dosnt it..?? One player doesnt make a team they say, one blue club as already found out...it just might, now a top, fully equipped side with a kaleidescope of WClass players , just cant replace that one gem.
ZeGuy Posted 2 November 2017 Posted 2 November 2017 (edited) Everton losing 2-0 to lyon. Red card for Schneiderlin. Shambles. By the way why don't we have a CL thread? Edit: 3-0 now. Edited 2 November 2017 by ZeGuy

Wymsey Posted 2 November 2017 Posted 2 November 2017 (edited) Is Schneiderlin banned for Sunday's game then, or just in cup competition? Edited 2 November 2017 by Wymeswold fox

Vacamion Posted 2 November 2017 Posted 2 November 2017 You would think that Watford will be licking their lips about playing Everton with Unsworth still in charge at the weekend.

Tuna Posted 2 November 2017 Posted 2 November 2017 Nice to see David Unsworth has brought some much needed consistency to Everton, every game it's the same result. They lose.
Wymsey Posted 3 November 2017 Posted 3 November 2017 Conte set to leave? Can see Hiddink being a contender to return again until the end of the season. http://www.marca.com/en/football/international-football/2017/11/01/59fa24ca468aeb1b358b464e.html

To be fair, we've played 5 of last year's top 7 and spent most of our time on the backfoot with conservative tactics and without an up-to-speed Iborra to dictate the game and pick a pass. The conversion rate might drop a bit, but the number of shots should improve.
Tuna Posted 4 November 2017 Posted 4 November 2017 Swansea 0-1 against Brighton...surely they'll go down this year, not good enough from what I've seen.
Chico1958 Posted 4 November 2017 Posted 4 November 2017 How come Chris Hughton didn't get a mention when we were looking at Managers Just gets on with it, I'm not complaining with what we have but the guys doing well 1
Ted Maul Posted 4 November 2017 Posted 4 November 2017 Down to 12th, but I'd back us to finish above all the teams above us apart from the expected top 6. 1
Corky Posted 4 November 2017 Posted 4 November 2017 Think this season proves it wasn't just Puel that was the issue at Southampton in terms of goalscoring. And Pulis- well, no win in 9 league games (and it hasn't been the most daunting run of games either) with Chelsea and Tottenham to come.
Super_horns Posted 4 November 2017 Posted 4 November 2017 (edited) Quite frankly your one of the most attack minded teams in the league on a good day! Pretty predictable there was going to be a shortage of goals and from what I heard chances. Just knew Brigton and Huddersfield would hold on. Edited 4 November 2017 by Super_horns
David Guiza Posted 4 November 2017 Posted 4 November 2017 Hats off to Dyche and Burnley, again. Really thought they'd struggle this season but he's really working the siege mentality. Can't decide whether he would be a success at a 'bigger' club or one of the many managers who can't replicate it on a bigger stage. Pulis and Clement must be sweating at the moment also. 1
Tielemans63 Posted 4 November 2017 Posted 4 November 2017 (edited) When you look at this league there really isn't a great deal of quality outside of the top 5 or 6 is there? We should def be finishing in the top 8 with our resources. Let's hope Claude can bring a bit of consistency. Edited 4 November 2017 by Paddy. 3

That's why I was so disappointed by our start to the season- Everton, Southampton and West Ham (the 3 most likely to challenge for 7th before the season started) all look bang average. A route into Europe is there for the taking this season if we continue to get our act together. 2

Dyche was my first choice for the Leicester job, that was purely based on the poor/little choice available, he's what I was calling the best of a bad bunch. My concern about us taking him was that I think he's one of these managers who only does stuff at certain clubs or certainly a certain size of club, I still stand by that, all the hype surrounding Dyche I think might end up going very quiet if and when he leaves Burnley, this is purely speculation and time will tell but I think Dyche will struggle if he went to a bigger club, I honestly think he'd be stupid to leave Burnley, they suit each other - And I don't mean that in a derogatory way. As you say though, hats off to him, he's doing and done a great job, I (like many Leicester fans) couldn't stand him but in the past year he has grown on me alot. Edited 4 November 2017 by Matt 1
surrifox Posted 4 November 2017 Posted 4 November 2017 Burnley haven't looked back since they binned Keane
Suzie the Fox Posted 4 November 2017 Posted 4 November 2017 Everton down to 19th.. (albeit with a game in hand) amazing really after some of their signings in the summer. NO one could have predicted that. Newcastle v Bournemouth, total bore fest. Lets hope West Ham v Liverpool isnt as bad. So far today i think we had the best game for entertainment value.
