Beats me why some fans only ambition is to be also rans in the prem relegation league.All spot on but sadly holding the core together may not be enough even spending wisely might be near enough. Not one of our current team might be good enough for pl same as last seasons promoted three. But who cares at present, this is most enjoyable footballs been since promotion
Agree with all of that Jammy.Rodon's a good player and at this level he's excellent but that doesn't take anything away from Struijk's performances this season. However switch Struijk to the right and he's not the same player and I suspect Rodon would be the same if we played him on the left.
Cooper is the issue really and he should only come back in when Struijk is unavailable but Farke sees him as the next in line at centre back and that will cause us problems. Bottom line is if Cresswell isn't good enough as cover for Rodon then we need a better option.
however imo blossomed when given the captaincy following the horrific injury to Bobby Collins. He became more aware of his responsibility. Maybe, just maybe, giving the captaincy to the lad, has given him the confidence that(as first choice)he can now get back to his best. Yeah, he’s not seemingly a shouter, but that’s not always critical, he’s improved massively, maybe he has found his level, but we won’t know that, for a while yet.The prawn sandwiches are probably better quality in the pl but most of us won’t get to ever taste them.

Pies are rubbish these days.. I can remember those chicken balti ones were great. Anyway who wants to drink claret at a football game?. I think we know one who might.The prawn sandwiches are probably better quality in the pl but most of us won’t get to ever taste them. Can’t even afford a pie![]()

Shaks wouldn’t say no eitherIn a pint glass of course.. No half measures allowed.Shaks wouldn’t say no either
On Sky after the game they used the goal line technology to show the ball was right on the line which made it an even better save. Really strong hand from Meslier as had to avoid pushing it onto the post and then either back into play or even into the goal.What a save

I’m totally undecided about Meslier. Credit where credit’s due. Great save but for every one of those there’s the fumble like against Huddersfield and often rank poor positioning that leads to goals.What a save

Agree. Think Jordan Pickford, he kept Everton up two seasons running.He'll get alot of credit for that save and rightly so. However, as you imply, that shouldn't mask the glaring errors of the last 3 seasons and his inability to make saves on a consistent basis. I think his last man of the match performance was Liverpool away last season which is criminal for a side who are near the bottom of the table where goalkeepers are given enough every chance to be the hero on occasion.
