Opposition fan forum gems

It's not often to see a player play once and come to the conclusion that they aren't good enough, but that was how I felt watching Saul when he played against Aston Villa, and he hasn't improved a single bit in 3 months.

He is totally out of his depth and you can see why Atletico Madrid don't want to play him in their midfield. He wouldn't just struggle with Premier League football, but he would struggle at any level in England because he can't adapt to the intensity.

Chelsea fan on Saul, hauled off at halftime in both his first and second premierleague start. #recordbreaker

Although the could have been 5 up before we scored, we were right in the game prior to that, an the vermin and their fans knew it - they crapped themselves in the stands and on the pitch, all the songs stopped and we could have definitely scored again - the high line was their for the taking if we wanted to. Herr Shippmann talking his team up post match is just more kopite propaganda - they were better than us but not that great, and a better side than our could and would have hurt them.

Is that quote real

My 11 year old sat and endured the whole debacle and was in tears at the end. I keep telling him to stick with it and one day we’ll come good again. That line is wearing a bit thin now and I’m not sure I even believe it myself anymore.

One of his mates (mum a blue, dad a typical red) used to support us but defected to them a couple of years ago, so what you’ve said here is definitely a thing. Following Everton certainly isn’t fun and hasn’t been for a few years now so, other than blind family loyalties, where are the next generation of blues going to come from?

Anyone else noticed the linesman are not flagging and waiting for them to touch it with us it goes up straight away.

I am sick of a goal going in and the cameras panning to Keane's gormless face afterwards every single time.

Arsenal swerved one with this Moshiri clown and his doubtful fat friend. Would keep Pickford, Dacoure, DCL, Gray and Townsend. Change everything else because it is [Poor language removed]. To see our obese board members who can't manage themselves it appears, together tonight made me sick.
If Bill was an Everton supporter he would never have sold out to two(and it is two) such clueless pricks.

I remember the skint years under moyes and to think 600 million would be spent in the next ten years and for what all wasted and irs even worse as we have no no heart none of the players care. Just painful

At least it's a midweek game so the weekend isn't ruined

And our next game is Monday, so the weekend is safe

Absolutely no idea where we go from here, all I know is its unhealthy being an Evertonian.

And it's almost funny to hear the Kopites moaning about our fans and our "diving players" BTL in The Guardian instead of celebrating their win. They always try to find a silver lining in the "rubbing it in your face" stakes which I think comes from the very nature of following a team that provides a modicum of reflected glory into their crappy lives.

Hardest thing for me tonight was seeing my 10 yo lad almost in tears after the 4th went in, just hurting so much at what Everton was doing to him - he's at that age where its starting to really matter to him, and I feel terrible that I've afflicted him with the Everton gene.

I told him no matter what, it's better than being a kopite gob****e and tried to cheer him up with the promise of our day will come, but not sure he bought it (probably because I don't believe it myself).

My 7yo daughter also tried to cheer him up and we got him smiling again on the way out.

I just want them both to have some days in sun supporting this club of ours - I have seen us win trophies but I would take us just being competitive and challenging for things right now - not too much to ask is it??

Just picking on one comment from above.

I've literally no idea how they have spent half a billion. On who? The best player they have wasnt even bought in.

[Fivex]

Well >10% of that spend turned out to be a sex pest
