Everton's first-choice 11 is probably on a par with ours and Liverpools

Jesus, even I think that statement's ****ing nonsense. They will finish 7th or 8th. Rooney is not a replacement for Lukaku and even though Lukaku was infuriating, he still scored over 50% of their goals.
Sigurdsson failed at spurs, Keane looks okay but essentially just a replacement for the BiL, the rest all look very average.

That's the funny thing. They've spent £150m to essentially finish in the same spot.

Yes, because spending money is like a trophy nowadays. You're a married man; you know.

So when yer man hangs up his boots, will you still follow Everton, do you think?

I don't follow Everton, b. I take an interest and make use of the free food and ale. My interest will stop the moment he walks away

I actually think Siggurdssonn is a good footballer.

He's okay, takes a decent free-kick but never seen him turn in a game where he's been the difference

Let's wait and see. Their early fixtures are brutal, so I wouldn't draw too many conclusions on where they will finish until after Christmas at least. But to say they haven't improved relative to some of those above them is naive.

The defence (certainly including the keeper) is better than Arsenal's and Liverpool's, even more so when Coleman recovers from his long-term injury. Midfield: Sanchez (if he stays and can be bothered) is of course a class apart but otherwise there's little to choose. Gueye is a proper defensive midfielder which Wenger has not had since Giberto. Attack is the one area where they may be a little short of genuine quality.

No need to be touchy about your toffee-bothering tendencies, old chap. You're among friends here.

Maybe you should get one of those half-and-half replica shirts?

[Alberto Balsam Rodriguez]

Whether they have as much depth in their squad is debatable, but they are at least showing genuine ambition which you have to respect.

Based on????

Lukaku has been rubbish since he cut his hair...
