Subscriber RandoEFC+ 7,644 Posted September 22, 2020 Subscriber Share Posted September 22, 2020 Koeman was a massive twat to Niasse then eventually was forced to throw him on to save his job against Bournemouth at home. Niasse was a championship level striker but will be much more fondly remembered by Evertonians than ham face. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick 2,271 Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Niase isn’t THAT bad a striker, and he works hard. Disgrace that he was treated like that, but not surprising as Koeman looks like a super cunt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber RandoEFC+ 7,644 Posted September 23, 2020 Subscriber Share Posted September 23, 2020 Niasse saving Koeman's job with a brace against Bournemouth and then scoring the last goal of his tenure at Everton in the 5-2 defeat to Arsenal has a decent case to be peak banter-era Everton. Plenty of competition though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber RandoEFC+ 7,644 Posted September 27, 2020 Subscriber Share Posted September 27, 2020 Everton twitter on fire this weekend. Firstly, one of the most followed fans in our circles started dubbing 35 year old Everton's post match victory song "Spirit of the Blues" over various movie scenes, the trend spread like wildfire through the fanbase. Some of my personal favourites: The song is now in the top 10 of the iTunes charts and rising . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Artful Dodger 1,831 Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 (edited) Been playing it all week, what a song. Didn't mind Liverpool winning the league when it was winding up Tory southerners and Mancs, but need Everton to step up now.

I know it's not wise to get ahead of yourselves but gotta have some hope surely... I do have some hope but there's also probably more chance of us losing. We have a lot of Goodison draws with them lately. This year we have a better chance of competing with them so we might go for it more and get done but I'd rather see us do that than scrap for another 0-0. Also, I know they look shite against Villa right now but that's more reason for them to bounce back when they play us in a couple of weeks.

They're not even signing him from us . The Schneiderlin bit is hilarious though because they actually do look sort of similar and you could be forgiven for not noticing it on first glance. I'm not really optimistic about Olsen. From what I've heard, he's not going to be an improvement on Pickford, but hopefully he can act as a shot across the bows to get Pickford to sort his shit out. I can't see Olsen even being better than Lossl really but we've already reached a point with him where it's clear that Silva and Ancelotti both didn't trust him enough to drop Pickford so there's no pressure on the number one to improve. Although I don't actually think that a lack of pressure is Pickford's problem. It's a good window overall. What was bigger yesterday was getting rid of Sandro Ramirez who was on £100k a week thanks to braindead Steve, and we managed to get Walcott on loan to Southampton who are paying half of his wages which is another £50k a week so that's a saving of £7.8m on wages over the next 12 months. Kean is also temporarily off the wage bill along with Besic, I don't know how much they're on. There was talk of Bernard leaving on loan to Roma which I'm glad didn't materialise. We have no clear back-up for Calvert-Lewin with Kean gone so it looks like Richarlison will have to operate as our second choice centre forward, meaning we have need of Rodriguez, Iwobi, Bernard and Gordon for the wide positions to give us six forwards, i.e. two in each position. Still need to get Bolasie a move but we're slowly chopping back the hundreds of thousands we're paying a week to players who are no longer in the first team plans.

What do you think Pickford's problem is? I'm never convinced by the approach of signing a credible backup (putting aside how credible we think Olsen actually is) in an attempt make your number 1 better. It's never going to have that big an effect, and it won't last long beyond Pickford realising he's got the better of Olsen. If by some miracle it does have a big effect, you need to be asking questions about your number 1's attitude. Maybe you need to ask questions about his attitude anyway that you thought this was a good idea. We tried this several times with Mignolet, and all it got us was two keepers who weren't good enough instead of one. Chelsea have just done it with Mendy and I imagine it'll go the same way.

Subscriber RandoEFC+ 7,644 Posted October 6, 2020 Subscriber Share Posted October 6, 2020 Well at least we haven't spent actual money on Lossl or Olsen. Pickford's problem for me is that he has completely lost his confidence but his ego and personality are such that he won't look in the mirror and have an honest conversation with himself about it. He's in denial about what the problem is. He panics when he's under pressure in games and hasn't taken the time to understand why. He seems to think his ability is enough that it'll average out and he'll play himself back into form. I'm not in the lad's head but that's what it looks like to me.
