Rooney is the best player England has ever produced. Not a favourable comparison. Kroupi played about 50 games for Lorient

Nope. Being thrown in now will offer absolutely nothing to his development. He should be sent away for the next two seasons on loan to play against men. Easy for fans to say ‘throw him in’. They’re not charged with the players development, the club is.

We concede from far too many headers from inside the 6 yard box. For all Pickford’s attributes, commanding he isn’t

Pickford doing his shtbag thing of tackling rather than diving at a players feet with his hands

He’s a whore for Qatari money. There’s no way he’s giving that up

Booing is fucking moronic. It’s not pantomime and you’re not 6 years old. Behave

I’ve bemoaned his lack of authority and command, particularly with current set piece obsession. Come to realise that if he was some 6’8’ behemoth, combining that with his qualities. It would probably make the most perfect gk ever. So my expectations rather than his ‘shortcomings’ need to change!!

One completely unnecessary moan about yesterday. When ‘Beto lad’ tackled their keeper early on and then slid to try to tackle them defender and he done the worst dive I’ve ever seen and the ref fell for it. Raging I was, I tells yer

You can’t take your team off the pitch because you disagree with a decision. Soft twats. Deserve everything they get

We seemed to spend about 3 transfer windows chasing that Gnonto. He’s unimaginably shite

That made me laugh more than it should have!

Things a rapist says for 500 please

The ‘Thierno Barry thinks he’s a world class striker’ because he sticks his tongue out is some searing top level analysis

This is the cream of the premier league. Absolutely shite

Chermiti!!!! OOOOFFFF

Nev’s vs Falco not even in his top 10. The importance skews it. Save vs Luton at Villa park from Ricky Hill in FA cup semi remains the best I’ve ever seen

Tarkowski level goes up by about 30%. Can’t think why

So far we could have had a pen and Tonali booked. What’s actually happened. DH gets booked

Beto has given Burn a bit of a going over there. If only he could control a 10 yard pass into his feet

Christ, some of this squad must be garbage in training

Maybe he would have maybe he wouldn’t stopped it. Fact is once Sesko got on his bike, it was game over. As soon as we were pushing on we were completely exposed

Questions from the associated press?

‘David, can you explain your decision to play Everton’s best player out of position to accommodate Michael Keane and Everton’s best performing player this season out of position when 4 fullbacks were available for selection?’

I reckon

Arsenal FA cup draws. Portsmouth, Wigan, Mansfield.

Raised a chuckle when I looked at their goalscoring record. Especially when he sneeringly mocked a journo when asked about an attacking coach last year. Because, according to him, John Robertson, and Gary Birtles said it was all nonsense

I read the tweet from his missus, who herself has had massive health issues. Puts it in perspective. They’re just human beings who happen to play footy for a living. They have life struggles that doesn’t wholly disappear with lots of money earned. I hope he gets the best from his career.

I’ll die on this hill. We desperately need someone to pressure Pickford. Not the biggest concern admittedly but football going the way it is with set pieces, we need braver and more commanding than him. Why does he try and tackle? Last night case in point. Should’ve been out and throwing himself

This sliding tackle feet first he’s always done just isn’t good enough

Pickford again not diving at a players feet. Not brave enough

Harsh on Rohl.

I hate giving players an out but a semi competent attacking full back would make such a difference. That being said, if you think we’re going to spunk £30+Mill on him, you need your bumps feeling
