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

I don't support Everton mate.

Yeah, he's obviously got us mixed up with PSRB.

No it isn't.

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.

Yes, but YOM would happily lavish praise on Tottenham, Chelsea or any other team - just as long as by doing so, he gets to put Arsenal in a bad light by comparison.

That's how much of a fan he really is. The rest of us can only aspire to that level of loyalty.

Pickford and maybe Keane are the only 2 players from that squad that would get in our 1st XI.

Oh and a fully fit Coleman

I actually think Siggurdssonn is a good footballer.

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.

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

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.

:hehe: 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? :hehe:
