I did hear earlier from someone associated with the club that we are looking at a very ambitious loan with a £40M+ option/obligation but he needs a lot of convincing. Hwang has interest (loan) from Saudi and Turkey so he still could go after tomorrow. I thought I'd pass it on.

Such an appalling performance as bad as some of the dross Under O'Neil.TBH I don't think Everton look anything more a bottom 6 team which is quite alarming for our outlook for the season. The back 3 got bullied Beto all game fucking Beto not Haaland and so sloppy on the ball. The front 3 very...

I've never disliked a coach more than this charlatan. The continued board backing of him is jaw dropping every coach (not named O'Neill it seems)would have been sacked by now at sny club. This dickhead won't move out of London only turns up when 'needed' and has constantly lied to players. Him...

I know It's Man City and they can do that to any team but I thought some players looked either dreadful or lacking awareness through out the game especially Johnny who looked like a man who's had 2 ACL surgeries in quick succession at times he had the mobility of an 18 wheeler. At times we...

It wasn't a terrible performance and definitely not a good one but the lack of focal point up top is just blatantly killing us. A natural No. 9 would of finished most of the big chances today some of the attempted finishing was just shocking at this level. It's a new system but it still seems...

Very true IMO as mentioned this is all on Nuno if we are looking to blame someone you can't really blame Shi or Sellars. Hindsight is a wonderful thing Chelsea probably regret letting De Bruyne and Salah go for peanuts but at the time neither looked like the players they have become He looked...

TBF with Dias when Man City came knocking we did not have a hope of pulling that one off nor could you blame Dias for waiting for a big club to come in knowing how highly regarded he is as a player. Top Centre Backs are way harder to find then midfielders I always felt Dias would go straight in...

TBF Bryan is pretty terrible. I've unfortunately seen some of his fights he's an even worse Heavyweight 'World' Champion than Charles Martin was. Good for Dubois but it was expected

Palinha will be a good fit for the Premier League he will be a presence in midfield, Although him partnering Moutinho or Dendoncker doesn't fill me with optimism the lack of mobility would be a real worry. I definitely don't see him as a direct Neves replacement in an ideal world he'd be the...

I never thought I'd see the words interesting and Jake in the same sentence. TBH it's seems like he's bigging up John and trying to instigate something plus he's a Grade A wanker (not John he's a top bloke).

TBF I don't think Mings has either qualities so Bassey is surely better already. I'm not sold on Bassey seems similar to Toti from what I have seen being quick, raw and he's around the same age too

Played OK at times the turning point was Neto getting injured and our Make a Wish recipient this season Hwang replacing him. Hopefully Bruno goes tonight and we scrap the Hwang deal....I'm probably wrong though.

It's a big summer for Morgan as his value is at a high financially and what he can offer us going forward is something we have not had this season. I have seen quite a few Sheffield United games this season in terms of consistency he is getting better (although it is at a lower level) and is...

I hear that from a few but honestly would anyone trust him with his own players I have this horrible image of a team of Hwang's and even more coma inducing football. The core of this team is still capable of more than the stuff we are producing recently as a coach Bruno's job is to get more out...
