Both showed they have much growing up to do. Jackson is a proper weirdo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber RandoEFC+ 7,670 Posted April 15 Subscriber Share Posted April 15 Switching off now but this game can't be allowed to pass without mentioning the fact that one team here has been deducted 8 points and plunged into the pressure of a relegation battle for spending too much money despite making a net profit on player transfers and selling almost all of their quality players in the process, and the other has spent £1bn on players in the same time frame and been allowed to get around the same financial rules because their owner sold a hotel to another company he owns for £70m+ and that's apparently fine. Best league in the world and all that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barely a foul on Palmer, and absolutely no foul on Madueke. Probably was a foul by Doucoure. After he gave the ball away as well. Sums up his form since returning from injury earlier this season. Not that it's made a difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cicero 5,267 Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 Probably the first match this season where we controlled the game the entire 90 minutes. No individual errors. No complacency. No poor in-game management Best result/performance going into a semi final. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber RandoEFC+ 7,670 Posted April 15 Subscriber Share Posted April 15 Difficult one with Dyche now. Can't sack a manager who's taken a team who finished 17th last season, lost a few players, had the team patched up with a few loans, freebies and Beto, and racked up 35 points and certain safety pre-deductions with half a dozen games to spare. But can't defend a manager who has 1 win in 15 in the league and tries to play a high press away to Chelsea with Palmer, Mudueke and Mudryk counter attacking against Coleman, Tarkowski and Mykolenko after setting up for a 0-0 and hoping for a set piece or lucky goal at home to Burnley. Everton in complete limbo. Tonight at 5am UK time, the deadline for one American investment consortium to repay another American investment consortium who leant us some money to prove to the Premier League that they have the money to complete the purchase of the club runs out. We might wake up tomorrow and see that MSP are the new owners of Everton. We might wake up and find out that the purgatory continues as we potentially drift towards administration. The off the pitch nonsense often makes the 6-0 defeats and the turgid football look like the fun part of being an Everton fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whiskey 1,192 Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 3 hours ago, Devil said: City could win forever and I'd never reach the level of bitterness you carry towards United. If you want to believe the nonsense you've just written, fine by me. Its simply bollocks we had plenty of seasons where we won nothing and struggled. We didn't win the league for three years at one stage in the early 2000s. We were rebuilt from a team seen as washed up twice to create maybe three great sides that dominated and era. All money earned by being well marketed and simply because we were one of the biggest clubs in world football. Sorry if that's hard to accept but unfortunately however bitter you are it's a fact. That's something not true if City though, you know, I know it, everyone knows it. If we weren't to ever win a trophy again it would sit easier with me if we all knew it was done through natural growth and excellent management. Instead they've hired the best in every position and rebuilt a club in a ten year period. Pep is the perfect coach for a club that can turn over players to suit his coaching style. A player doesn't fit he gets replaced as quickly as he was bought. No hanging around like a bad smell. Frozen out and gone before the fans can even remember to how to spell their name. Pep couldn't do what Klopp or Sir Alex did with a squad. There are no Quinton Fortunes, Endo's, Silvestres or Tsimikas type players within the City squad. It's a case of need the best, scouted by the best, bought by the best and then coached by the best at coaching elite players. They will even replace Pep with the best, that will be the plan. As for shadow's, being an Everton fan you'd know better than me about that. You've spent your whole living life without seeing the sun shine in your direction. That shiny new little stadium won't change that any time soon. Better hope a sugar daddy comes your way. That's a fantastic chomp cheers mate.

Devil-Dick Willie 3,253 Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 Christ almighty I just saw Cole Palmer speak for the first time, room temperature IQ doesn't even come close to explaining what I witnessed. Even Kane has more words in his head than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
