He's one of us here, ITK forum is where he turns into a sexy beastNo blue background? Have you been defrocked by Hercules and Dragon 1 ??
Did Jose say f...ing sloppy passing in the first half?
Couldn't agree more.
I'd be embarrassed with some of those passes playing sunday morning football.
Need to increase the intensity in the second half (seems to be a recurring theme).
Win with no injuries is all I'm wanting from these early rounds. A win without having to play 7 of our main 11 would be perfect.I must be the only one who just wants the win in these early rounds regardless of performance. ?
Funny how we all perceive football differently - and quixotically.
Everton; Europa first game and first half of the Southampton game had me in despair. I was genuinely thinking Mourinho should be sacked.
This first half I've found decent, Dele's been everywhere. Tanguy started really well before fading a bit but still building that fitness base. We got the early goal. Dele and Toby should have added more. We've looked in control and, apart from Davies and Aurier once each - haven't made horrendous mistakes in possession.
Yet looking at this match thread people are seeing something completely different. Apparently Dele's shit and lazy and not up for it. Winks (who is clearly doing what he's been told to by Mou) is getting slagged for never getting forward. Tanguy's fat and lazy and not up for it. Davies is shit.
The only players who haven't been slagged are Son (totally anonymous apart from the assist - won by Tanguy in reality) and Lamela - totally anonymous apart from the goal.
The lesson is it's safer from spurs fans in the match thread if you don't get near the ball. That way you aren't blamed for what's done with it.
Anyway - much improved Europa performance so far. COYS!
And of course no injuries or stupid suspensions.I must be the only one who just wants the win in these early rounds regardless of performance. ?
He'll try to do it without Kane, he's not Southgate and is not afraid to manage KaneJose will want to kill the game and bringing Kane on to do so makes sense. I don't want it to happen but I can see him doing just that.
I’m challenging every poster to say one positive thing about Winks in the second half. I believe in you.
Yes thanksOoohhh, remember Plovdiv scoring

Yep, win with no injuries pleaseI must be the only one who just wants the win in these early rounds regardless of performance. ?
Yeah I think he's actually trying to hard. Proving a point to Jose though which is good to see.He really should have scored.

I take 5 million for him his shocking.He excels at nothing, if you're going to have a DM/Deepest CM that is one of the weakest footballers in the history of the world and has no tackling ability. You'd expect his passing to be out of this world and creating a tempo and pushing us forward. I still can't believe some were up in arms we might sell him to City for 40m, i'd take 20m for him.
I'd love to line up to a CM with him in it every week.
As soon as he completes a forward pass you've got yourself a dealI’m challenging every poster to say one positive thing about Winks in the second half. I believe in you.
