Agree with the posts below; Allardyce needs to be quiet regards Everton, absolute waste of space and well paid for it!

01 Feb 2019 19:27:32
Alardyce waste of space gets us to 8th. Silva currently 8th but apparently acceptable if he has us top 10.

{Ed025's Note - come on DFS you cant surely be lauding up sam, i know its not been great under marco lately but at least we have tried to play football and go out to win games mate, sure we need to improve and after a bright start we have regressed somewhat, but lets give him and brands a fair crack of the whip otherwise we will be changing the manager on a weekly basis..

01 Feb 2019 19:56:49
Blimey dfs at least we are playing footy worth watching.

01 Feb 2019 20:00:28
I think the football we are playing at the moment is terrible and boring I'm not sticking up for Sam but you can't say it's very entertaining.

{Ed025's Note - its not at the moment skylark and thats a fair point, but we started out well and even though we have regressed we do set up to win games, there has been so much change and i think we need to give him time to turn things around imo mate..

Just a dose of reality Ed. Many things said about the man, controversial yes but such stuff as corrupt etc totally wrong. Got going into details but watch his interview with the media sting on England for instance. As to football the fella has never been relegated and remember we wanted him not him wanting us, he was brought in to do a job and he did it. He is not a neanderthal, for instance do you or others know that he and his philosophy was actually one of the first to introduce sports phsycology into the system. On the evidence and hand on heart is Silva better than Alardyce or Martinez. A couple of sycophants on here to be honest.

{Ed025's Note - you have pointed out a few of the positive things about sam there DFS, if i had a year or 2 i would point out the negatives of this fraud and charlatan mate..

01 Feb 2019 20:20:37
Incidentally Ed, I think Brands with his contacts is an excellent appointment, my only criticism is I cannot work out on what basis he recommended Silva to the board.

{Ed025's Note - im thinking he knows more than us DFS...at least i hope so mate..

01 Feb 2019 20:37:38
Seriously please do Ed, point out the fraud and charlaton like episodes in the mans past. Blackburn (yes we know about his private life) undermined by a real Charlaton and where is he now, that is a waste of space. Bolton did the job, Crystal Palace did the job, England did the job, undermined because he is not a yes man, what did he do wrong, took an interview organised by his agent, told the sting merchants (on Camera) you will have to discuss that with my current employers. In my younger years I was 'head hunted' (to use a modern term) , but on the basis the 'hunters' dealt with my employers. Some of you have probably supported this Club longer than me (60 years and counting) but I do support them and always will. Our direction worries me, it really does and 4 Managers in 4 years is worrying and honestly it is still not done.

{Ed025's Note - thats my point mate, we need to stabilize and give silva a fair crack..

01 Feb 2019 21:01:14
Methinks DFS so vehemently defending the Honour (? ) of Fat Sam is really because DFS is in fact Fat Sam himself ;-p.

01 Feb 2019 21:08:53
As for GB's 'blimey DFS at least we are playing football worth watching'. No we should be playing football that is winning football, I go to see my Team win, I played Sport to win, I encourage my Grandson to play sport to win. The difference between sport and business/ career is in sport you play to win without thinking about please/ thankyou/ how are you etc!

01 Feb 2019 21:10:18
Still not pointed out the fraud or charlaton part of Sams CV ed.

{Ed025's Note - i would have to tell his life story DFS.. :)

01 Feb 2019 21:42:47
Please do Ed.

{Ed025's Note - im considering your request mate..

01 Feb 2019 23:17:01
Not being funny Ed, still waiting your response. But the fact is about Alardyce is all about conjecture, rumour and false accusations. The bloke is a professional, he was a crap footballer but his can label regarding coach/ manager is spot on. Ask the FA how much they had to pay him. I guarantee an absolute fortune.

{Ed001's Note - actually that is not true, he was caught redhanded taking bungs on a TV show. He claimed he would sue but never did because he is guilty. No rumour, no conjecture nor false accusations. You are outright lying in a bid to back up a thief as some kind of hero. Some of your posts are interesting, but defending Allardyce on this particular level is just idiotic. He was caught redhanded. He lost the England job for doing something equally as distasteful.

Defend his tiresome style of playing if you must, but to defend him on this front is just making you look a tired troll.}

02 Feb 2019 09:17:36
His pro Allardyce and anti Everton rhetoric is getting tedious now. He can't see what millions of others see re Allardyce and he constantly slags off the club he claims he supports because they don't do what he thinks they should.

02 Feb 2019 10:43:36
Try this Ducky if the link works save Ed a few hours of his life.

Think we will lose tomorrow against a very dangerous/ good Wolves team under a good manager. & in particular a certain young player by the name of 'Neves' who in my opinion is the best/ finest young player in PL at the moment and destined for great things. we should be busting a gut to sign him in the summer, but would probably cost in excess of 50/ 60 million.

01 Feb 2019 15:46:51
Is that the same Wolves that lost to Palace 2-0,City 3-0,and only drew with Shrewsbury 2-2 by any chance, c'mon give our lads some Credit.

01 Feb 2019 16:32:05
Yeah, well, on current we could only just scrape past bottom of the table Huddersfield Town, so we shall see in due time. & in any case, I’m just really pointing out the talent of a certain player called ‘Neves’ who has impressed me greatly this season!

01 Feb 2019 16:58:17
I see nothing but a win for us tomorrow. We will tame the Wolves.

01 Feb 2019 17:25:35
Great, really hope so.

01 Feb 2019 17:42:00
Guernsey blue is that the team who got knocked out of the cup by little old Millwall who you want to give credit to 🤔.

01 Feb 2019 17:53:00
Sure is mate, any team can beat any team.

01 Feb 2019 18:26:23
We are all blues but it is hard to have faith and give credit at this time.

01 Feb 2019 18:33:48
Its as good a time as any mate.

01 Feb 2019 18:57:13
I think what GB is saying is let’s not write the boys off before a ball is kicked and that every team can win a match so let’s give them some support.

01 Feb 2019 18:58:40
I hope the players don't feel your faith Shakey. A sure way off dampening their confidence.

01 Feb 2019 19:13:25
Too right Southern mate, that's the last thing the Team needs mate.

01 Feb 2019 19:15:38
What I will say is appalled at Silva or is it Brands farming out Benny to Wigan, this is some talented lad, I rate him above Davies, makes the runs but with his head up. As I have mentioned before, got to put it down to Managers favourites. Prediction in DM against Wolves (where speed of pass and foot is required) we will have Davies dropped, Gomez and Gueye in. One who slows the game down so much I can pop out for a pie and the other guaranteed to pass to the opposition.

01 Feb 2019 19:45:39
I think we should leave team selection to Marco, far better informed than any of us mate.

01 Feb 2019 21:47:20
Wolves are a very good side and way ahead of where we are now in their first season back. We have the players I am convinced, to drive us forward.

01 Feb 2019 21:54:29
Hard for you to watch these lads GB, my opinion is that Benny is a step above Davies.

{Ed025's Note - i must admit i do like benny as well DFS, in fact we have some very good youngsters at the club..

02 Feb 2019 08:19:19
Beni is a great talent but why wouldn't u give him 6 months at Wigan to get first team football? Didn't do Harry kane any harm going out on loan did it.

02 Feb 2019 08:39:28
Beni is young and needs to keep improving so I agree, a loan out for 6 months will do him good.

01 Feb 2019 14:33:21
., I thought no there's a real chance/ opportunity now for young Tom Davies to stake his claim in this Everton team, always liked him as a player and just have this nagging feeling he could yet become a star player for us and country under the right mentoring and stewardship.

{Ed's Note - Ed001 has posted a new article entitled, Liverpool v Leicester City - A Liverpool Perspective

01 Feb 2019 09:48:32
Will be interesting to see how Batshuayi does at palace. I believe it’s a loan so there is a chance to go back in the summer or we may have other targets. No panic. give Cenk a run of games, work with what we have at see where we are at the end of the season.

Not a bad transfer window, managed to get a few out on loan, Gaye will go in the summer but certainly closer to Everton's asking price.

Tosun should be given an extended run until the summer, see if he can save us a few bob, Benni will get game time at Wigan.

All in all no last minute panics.

As for the window itself, I think Sunderland have done well to get Will Griggs from Wigan, decent player there, bought for peanuts in today's prices.
