Re: Dyche

Back on Dyche and xG/poor finishing...

Keepers so far have been MOTM 4 times against us.

(But it needs be mentioned that for our poor opposition this season, Pickford is adjudged the best player on the pitch in 20% of Everton matches!)

Re: Pickford

That Pickford is anywhere close is incredible if it's measured on clean sheets.

They should incorporate MOTM awards which to date are:

Pickford 7
Raya 0

Re: Jarrad Branthwaite

Shame Ashworth is at Man United now because I think we'd have absolutely rinsed them for him given their desperation in that area. Still on gardening leave I think, but it looks like they'll get him soon. Damned shame too when they do, as them and Chelsea are aimless and reckless. It seems all but ...

Re: VAR and is there a way to fix it?

Just make it the rule that the full foot has to be in front, that can’t be difficult ? But you can score with yer arse, or your noggin, if you want to. How is someone's feet, that might not even be under their body when the ball is played, might not be on the ground, might be size 15 1/2s, facing t...

Re: VAR and is there a way to fix it?

Use the programme they had at the WC. If it's within a certain closeness, then the attacker gets the benefit of the doubt. Not that hard? Ok, theoretically, imagine you're the FA deciding the threshold of closeness, what should it be and how do you justify that decision? How will it be applied? Not...

Re: VAR and is there a way to fix it?

Not sure how fans will cope with refs acknowledging making mistakes, nor how refs will be able to admit they have. Games these days are rarely ruined as a contest. But being able to clarify decisions might be both good and bad, good as more people might be able to understand reasoning as you say (ra...

I very much am real about what we are. I think anyone on this forum understands the position we are in and how far we have fallen. Three wins in a row is great and I think he has steadied the ship, but I can’t see a way he takes us forward from just surviving. I think some People have already forgo...
