Everton supporters would probably feel aggrieved if they lost out to us in the transfer market.

Quickly

What is wrong with America? The fact that most Americans think that Born in the USA is some kind of Republican American anthem.

Why do you say that? Do you think we are a bigger club than Everton?

Yep they really screwed up last season. They must be kicking themselves for getting their highest Prem total ever. Pah.

Get on the phone to Les. Great shout.

I think we have become so used to players getting into the 1st team at a young age that we are in danger of writing them off if they don't make it by 18/19. I hope that Sam is given a decent chance to stake his claim. Perhaps a season with a decent Championship side would good for him and us?

Good to see that there are still some reasonable posters her who read what is posted and respond in a measured manner (please take note Alps).

Now we both know I didn't say that don't we Alps? I was just responding to you and your crisis.

You cant even go to see a movie now without some idiot putting a bullet in you. You are much more likely to get killed by your own countryman than you are a terrorist in America.

A "crisis" would be starting the season without any CHs but by my count we still have 5 who could play there. Still there are always some who will make a mountain out of a molehill. Apparently we were looking to bring in one anyway and RK says maybe that will be two now so perhaps one on loan? Not quite meltdown material just yet.

I am just an old fashioned boy. I like to see the first choice CH wearing the 5 shirt.

No, it does seem an odd one.

Spanish media linking us, Stole and Everton with young Barca winger Adama Traore (not to be confused with Lallana or Yaya)

I know numbers don't mean as much now but still find it strange that Florin was given the no 5 shirt - especially as he wont be playing for a while.

Okay, but it is a strange question don't you think? Really, when you woke up this morning did you ask yourself, I wonder if we will sell out against Vitesse? I didn't. I asked myself cereals or toast? I wasnt worried before, but now I know these things are an issue, I find myself worrying if we will sell our away allocation against Norwich this season. What do you think?

So we have gone to worrying about players leaving and not buying a replacement for Toby yet to worrying about if we will sell out in a Europa qualifier. What next? Should we worry about the weather forecast for the game?
