Got injured again on return to training over lockdown. 😭😭😭

Clear as mud...

What are you going to do with your season ticket? "Pay" the deposit and enter the ballot or just put things on hold for a season?

I'm paying the deposit for two of mine and putting the other two on hold I think.

I’d been buying a season ticket off someone else but stopped in 18/19 then just bought tickets for matches at basically same price.

I just get annoyed by Everton because they have this great club and fan base but consistently bollocks up transfers. I don’t think these are terrible transfers but just question the logic behind bringing in 30 year olds who are obviously wanted by a specific manager (said mistake as with previous 3/4 managers)

Yep, we have made very few good transfers since Moyes left and largely the best ones we have made haven't cost a huge amount of money (IMHO pound-for-pound Moyes bought better than any manager in the league in his time with us). And that was because Moyes had the vision for the club, Kenwright just let him get on with it. Since he left (along with 5 managers) we've brought in title-winning Leicester's old head of recruitment/director of football and then Marcel Brands but it doesn't really feel like the club has a clear vision or plan about how it will progress. Ancelotti is basically the managerial equivalent of these players, he's what we need now, everyone likes him but I'm not sure what he offers towards building long-term.

Yaya Toure seems to have branched out post football.

Good trolling by ITV showing a close up of John Terry taking a knee for BLM at the soccer aid kick off

what a quote by klopp

“Next season we will not defend anything … we will attack,”

yeah bwoi

Christ, he sounds like Boris Johnson.

He also did #blackouttuesday, coincidentally it's the also one of the only post you can't comment on.

We apparently got up to €160m for Hazard with only one year left on his contract. Good negotiating by Chelsea I say!

Is there an LFGSS fantasy football league?

I decided to put a team together and created a LuFGuSS league if anyone wants in. Not sure I'll keep my team up to date, but who cares?

Foden and Greenwood sent home for shagging girls they met on snapchat in the team hotel. Stay classy, lads.

cheers

There was a LFGSS league

Yeah, I was in one a couple of seasons back too, but couldn't see anyone setting anything up towards the end of the current yentzing season. Decided to quickly set one up and share the link if people want to join.

Yeah, just catching up with that story. They took the yentzing season thing a bit 2 srs. Clearly two very bright sparks. Foden just had a kid recently too with his long term partner...

The video of the women recording the call on speakerphone though stinks of them being baited. Still not an excuse for anything that went on, but no one looks good in this case.

It auto renews I think. If you use the same account you'll still be in the league

Nah, all my leagues disappeared. Think it's because I didn't setup a team last year. If anyone has a code for a league with more of us in then feel free to share it

Apparently we may be getting Mendy from Rennes. One wonders whether we were ever really that interested in Declan Rice.

Perhaps you offered too much? Seems West Ham only like giving away young talent these days

That hurts but also so true

Very happy to see this fella in the premier league. Saw him play a couple of times for Colombia, with his crowd pleasing football.

Tim, we are both in for a long hard season pal

Yeah pretty exciting for Everton. Ancelotti knows him well so should know how to get the best from him. I hope he lights up Goodison. With Dacoure and Allan they suddenly look like they have a decent midfield.
