    Your assessment is a lot more generous than mine. I think he's an arrogant twerp. Like a lower table Pardew :)

    I don't think I've seen a manager show less enthusiasm for his team than Koeman has been doing for Everton. Clearly doesn't want to be there.

    The football could be poor under Koeman and it wasn't exactly unusual when it was poor but I didn't go into games expecting the team to be dull and ineffective like I kinda do now.

    And I've said many times that, while playing them is a nice bonus, I don't really care about the kids. If we finished 6th with a team of Academy players I'd be happy. If we finished 4th and no Academy player got on the pitch all season I'd be even happier.

    Fair enough, I'm the complete opposite. I would far rather finish 6th with side full of Saints academy graduates than support Chelsea or City.

    We scored a grand total of one goal against these Hull and Palace defences, and that was a penalty...

    Forget Leicester's form, Vardy v Kolorov is no contest. Pep is mad.

    It's OK, he (Bravo) can play with his feet. Keep telling yourself that Pep.

    The title race is over. Chelsea will win by about 7.

    Just heard on the radio that Snodgrass has admitted it wasn't a penalty and has apologised...refreshing to hear.

    Hmm, if he was really sorry he would have missed the penalty.

    That would have been near enough match fixing. It's not his fault the ref decided to give it.
