Ed's do you know if there's any truth in rumours that Monaco are to recall sidibe back from his loan with us.
{Ed002's Note - Djibril Sidibe (RB) wants out and Everton are very unlikely to take up their option - Monaco have Milan saying they will take him on a loan to buy in January. It would be best for the player.}

cant blame him, coleman ahs been terrible and he's still not getting a look in.

How much do attitudes such as Sidibe’s have on other players? Not that i'm blaming him for wantibg out.
{Ed002's Note - Sidibe doesn’t have an attitude problem Hugo. Players are transient employees of the club and it is not at all uncommon to find players unhappy they are not playing.)

Apologies, I wasnt trying to imply that Sidibe is in the wrong by any means, or that he is unprofessional in his attitude. Just wondering the effect that a player’s attitude has on the squad?
{Ed002's Note - What attitude are you referring to?}

why would his frustration of not playing have an affect on the squad? every player in world football whose not playing has frustrations of not playing, in every club?

His wanting out. Just wondered if that kind of vibe affected football teams, generally. isn't Everton-related, just curious from a sports psychology viewpoint.
{Ed002's Note - Players come and go all of the time - from a psychology standpoint he is a transient player - rather like all of the others. There is no vibe being encountered by the other players. Perhaps the occasional damp patch.}

Damp Patch? Hmmmm, Yea that's my new nickname for DC 😜.

I understand! I've always wondered about that, ditto players who read gossip about themselves/ team-mates in the paper. Must be a weied dynamic! Thanks as always, Ed.
{Ed002's Note - Few of the Everton players can read so it won't adversely impact them Hugo.}

🤣 that had me chuckling Ed
Got to say I do prefer to read a player is frustrated with his lack of game time, to me that shows he wants to make a difference and get some game time and not just be collecting his wages warming the bench!

Enjoyed that toi, Ed! can't imagine its too many that have quite picked it up yet!
