Unbelievable Jeff

Ah, sorry, didn't realise I'd stolen someone else's joke...not read through this thread as can't take that much Verbal in one sitting.

To be fair, I think Pap can certainly be described as a White Helmet.

And Fresh Prince...

You're welcome...

I'd guess because Everton are a bigger club with a bigger fan base. Glad to see we're starting to get the rates we should be though, well done to Ralph and all involved.

...

Can you imagine if these businesses weren't conducting the due diligence to moving elsewhere? We'd be accusing them of all sorts of mismanagement.

We finished 6th last season and are currently 7th. I think that really answers you're above musing.

Genuinely the best thing ever. My second is due in January also. As echoed above, you will be more tired than you've ever been, but you will never feel as loved.

Parejo is quality though...

He has certainly looked better. Even before his injury he wasn't the greatest finisher, but scored a lot of difficult chances. Also need to note, he did it from a different position to the one he's being asked to play now.

100% this.

And we all remember the unsavoury reason you hated Guly...

Gabbiadini and Heller are utter jank, Zaza is better than both of them and look at how he's struggled. The problem is there is a real lack of decent striking options around. For me I'd like to look at Berardi, Modeste and Ibisevic . Oh and also bring in Plea from Nice.

I think we need to go back to the diamond. We don't have the players to play 2 wide with the striker. Either that or invest big in January.

And I was actually raised in St Albert in Edmonton until I was 3...

God, he was ****ing **** though wasn't he?

I'll take that bet...

He keeps the ball well, has a good range of passing, keeps the ball moving and recycles possession well. In relation to the set pieces, the balls he puts in are top quality, you can see that. It's not his fault that the players in the box can't finish the chances.

Then reply to them on those platforms, as we sure as hell don't give a **** about your opinion.

New coach for the Oilers then?

We had a sticky patch at the beginning of the season...

So, we are just over a quarter of the way through the season, and I was wondering what people's reactions are now to our French tactician? Personally, after a gruelling Summer for a lot of our players due to the Euro's, the loss of Mane/Pelle/Wanyama, and a change of formation to the Diamond, I think we look like a better team that we did last season, and this can only be down to Puel. The way he has our team switching to and from the diamond to a fluid 4-3-3, the integration of youngsters and the superb rotation of a squad which has had a lot of games and injuries has been genius, and with more in form strikers we'd have far more wins than we do now. Yes, it is still early days, but if we can continue to play like this and build momentum I see no reason why we cannot challenge for another top 6 place. Some players are looking far better under him than Koeman, namely Romeu, Austin, Martina and JWP. We also manage to play ourselves out of trouble brilliantly at times, almost Barcelona-esque. He does however need to improve on his press conferences as this is one of the most important facets of the game now Everton on the other hand, although they picked up a number of points in early games (and a very easy fixture list), have looked pretty abject since the early run, and are looking a bit like our recent Dec/Jan out of form teams. Everton fans are also a bit surprised at his non-use of youngsters, although obviously we know all about that. I think we may well see Everton drop off as their fixtures get harder over the coming two months. So far I see no reason to lament the loss of Koeman, and I think Puel has obviously won himself some grace to get this team playing the way he wants them to. UTS.

The signs put up by taxi companies you mean, to try to get you to not even bother trying trains/buses?
