Well that makes it ok then I guess.

So we have ambitions to go up but are playing a blanket defence at home to fucking Stoke to the detriment of our own attacking prowess. Rather lose having a go than lose playing defensive.

You'd think at least one smart person at the club would have worked this out by now yet they all watch the same old shit seemingly expecting it to suddenly click. It won't!

Would prefer Stewart.

Bring on a big lad up front, ditch the back 5 and go 433 or 4231. If not I'm calling a scrappy defeat here and it will be self inflicted.

Why do managers keep making the mistake of playing AA through the middle? It has never worked and never will work so why keep doing it? Madness.

Have we been any better?

Zero shots on target against Stoke tells its own story.

Oh Will, come on man, sort it out!

Glad when we get some extra bodies in and hopefully ditch this awful 5 at the back.

Assuming this game is not shaping up to be a classic.

I think that means he can do any hours we want.

5 at the back gives us an extra centre back we don't need and one less midfield or attacker that we do need.

Not watching a stream but is it safe to say our football isn't flowing so far 🙂 Don't like this 5 at the back formation. Think it stifles our creativity.

West Ham looked almost as bad as we did last season.

KWP coming on.

Guess we'll have to take his word for it then. Of course it could easily be a bit of propaganda from the Everton hierarchy to make them look smart 🙂

How do you know this? Were you part of our negotiating team?

5-1. Chelsea filling their boots. West Ham look bereft of any fight or ideas. JWP treading water in midfield.

4-1 Chelsea and stadium is emptying.

How's he playing?

Everton being used as guinea pigs by the big boys - if Tyler is brilliant they'll all swoop next summer.

He's young so more money and more Premier League experience. If West Ham go down they'd be forced to sell him and he'd probably have a release clause anyway.

West Ham now 3-1 down - looks like they need Fernandes 🙂

It's fairly obvious the big boys are going to wait and see how Tyler does for Everton. If he does well they'll be gathering like vultures next summer and we won't have to wait long for our sell on percentage. Also wonder if his agent will insist on a release clause. This all smells like a stepping stone type move.
