Most of the league are that bad, it's not just us. And us, Everton And Newcastle are top half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they made such a fuss when Maguire did a similar thing to Gayle. Doubt they'll be calling for a ban here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the response would be a bit more positive then. Although I have to say Goodison Park is a wonderful cemetery that occasionally passes as a football stadium.

Donut Posted 23 April 2018 Share Posted 23 April 2018 (edited) 2 hours ago, lestajigs said: Wow sky pick some absolute shite Monday night football games This is because the vast majority of the games picked for a monday night will always be picked to avoid using the teams playing in europe, for obvious reasons. I do find it interesting that Everton are like us......in reverse. Everton had a manager that wanted to play football in Koeman, and they were accused of having no focal point up front and over playing without tempo. In comes Allardyce who gets them more assured at the back at home but aways are an issue and playing more direct into the forwards quicker. Team goes up the table. Fans get pissed off and want a manager who plays a more technical, pass and move brand of football. Leicester had a manager playing direct in Shakespeare and we couldnt keep the ball for toffee, we were conceding lots of possession and using an over reliance on balls into the channels and Vardy's pace. Puel comes in, and gets the team playing more pass and move football, retaining the ball and controlling the tempo of the game.Away performances and results improve, but at home, we struggle to find the breakthrough. Fans get pissed off and want a manager who likes to go long into the forwards early and play ugly low percentage stuff and fight for bits and pieces. Makes me think a significant group of people here and there should advocate just swap managers, then we would both be happy right?? Like fvck would we.

Finishing 8th, 9th, 10th ...... not bothered. I only care about next season now. Allardyce is clearly on his way out and I expect them to get genuinely better in the summer when this new director of football comes in. It's just annoying that we're below this abysmal excuse of an Everton side. Them being 8th is a sad reflection on the state of the top flight of English football. They're horrible.

Is anyone expecting an easy game? I'd say the vast majority of us are expecting to get turned over fairly comfortably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diabate didn't cost us £2m, if our finishing 8th rather than 10th nets us an extra £4 million or so, I'd like to think grabbing another 2 Diabate's wouldn't be so bad 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only thing that is mildly interesting is Spurs vs Liverpool final finish. What a boring season. Three wins could suffice, but Burnley would still need to lose their three remaining matches. We have a slight advantage in goal difference. But that's as probable as Claude Puel not needing a translator for post-match interviews any longer.

We'll buy the people we want whether we're 7th or 12th and the £2m could buy 2 Diabatés or Musa's left arm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like it or not, £4-5m isn't small change to a club that only operates a profit of around £20m per season. Owners can always loan money to the club, but it will always have to be paid back, nothing is free, so getting as much money as possible from the league is always important. Clubs can spend up to €5m more than they earn every 3 years, and given we'll be doing some major squad rebuilding soon, I wouldn't personally scoff at any amount of money the club can bring in. Clubs are allowed to avoid the €5m figure if the owners pay the fees directly, but our owners have never injected money like that for transfer fees, only for structural costs, like writing off debt.

Even if we care about FPP there are so many ways around it. The owners can easily manipulate income through their duty free company if they want. 4 minutes ago, sylofox said: 7th to 12th £10m could be the difference in getting all the players we want or NOT. Sorry I don't see it that way. We got all the players we wanted that wanted to come to us last year and the year before and the year before. £2m for a position will make no difference.
