He's a ****. If you're so worried Jurgen, rotate your starting 11 so that your best players don't have to play more minutes than you want. But no, you want your best team to put you 4 in front, and then have the luxury of bringing half of them off.

You know it's  bad when you find yourself agreeing with Moaninho... 

[David Hankey]

Just watch Man City thrash Fulham today, another Mahrez hat-trick?

[UniFox21]

Still disagree with fans being allowed for some clubs and not others.

We're literally JUST out of another lockdown because the infection rate had spiked so high. 

 

NOBODY should be at a ****ing football match.

Must admit I never thought I'd find myself liking Jose and considering him as the voice of reason while finding Klopp and Pep moaning, boring bastards.

Dare I say it, spurs seems to have been a good move for him and we are seeing more of the old Jose.

We're bombarded with the opinions of Klopp, Jose, Pep, Ole and even Arteta for my liking so much so that I avoid any TV sports news if can.

So much press around the North London Derby on who is the better manager out of Arteta and Mourinho. I havent read/watched so much rubbish in my life. One has multiple trophy wins, including two champions leagues and has his current club top of the league. The other has a FA Cup win and has his side 14th. I know it’s easy to “hate” Mourinho but for now at least, Arteta isn’t fit to clean to his boots. There isn’t a contest.

If you take personality and philosophy out of it and judge it based on results, there aren’t many managers in the last 20 years who stack up to Jose. You can say what you like about him but there’s no doubt he’s a winner.

1 is also in year 1 of his first managerial appointment the other on his 9th in a 20yr career it’s a moot discussion as there is no discussion

Everton’s form taking a nose dive...

Since his u-turn with Villa I’ve always disliked him, and whenever I see him play I don’t actually know what he offers.

No doubt he is a winner but he’s an example that would confuse me within the Rodgers (out) thread.
Rodgers is currently getting lambasted for the state of our play despite the players we are missing 2 of which Ricardo and Castagne are when fit going to be pivotal in the attacking contributions to the team, yet those calling him out would take Jose in a heart beat, what do you want guys?

Jose is not famed for his attractive football, he’s not really famed for the development of young players, he is famed for taking the glory and throwing his players under the bus.

 

So its just a win at any cost and live for the now those fans want then?

I’m really not sure we can be critical of Everton given our own nose dive in the last 4 games with reverting to our own early season form, results and performances looking distant.

[filbertway]

Jesus watching Everton is somehow worse than watching us

Oh no, I know, but I was talking about Everton, not Leicester 😉

[M0901]

Is it bad to say I’d put Nick Pope in the top 2 or 3 keepers in the league? Never seen him have a bad game.

Everton have at last achieved “doing a Leicester “. They’re as crap as us ATM 

[CosbehFox]

Don’t worry....we have Everton in a couple of weeks

Tsk, look what you did. 

[Nalis]

I think its been a pretty decent, open match so far 

[Fox92]

I always see posts about Tarkowski but I wouldn’t want him here.

[Corky]

You know Dyche will moan there was a foul in the build-up despite him droning on about players going down too easily.
