In the shout for worst owner the guy at Everton rarely gets much mention. He's a billionaire and the club have spent huge amount of money under his reign on players and gone through several managers of total different styles and way of playing. Moyes's shoestring budgets dependent on whoever Kenwright sold in the summer had Everton much more competitive.

Plus he puts his own money into the club.
The Glazer's don't put one penny in. Just let the club use some of their own.
Criminal!!

We haven't reached the stage where the most probable incoming manager has to do a public interview defending himself to the fans before even being appointed. Not yet at least.

Quote:
Vítor Pereira has attempted to placate Everton fans opposed to his appointment by giving an unusual public interview to defend his managerial record and claim “Pereira Out” graffiti on Goodison Park is evidence of passion rather than a personal attack.

Everton’s latest managerial search strayed into farce on Wednesday when Pereira gave a lengthy interview to Sky Sports News while awaiting a decision from the club on his interview to succeed Rafael Benítez as manager. Within hours of it emerging on Tuesday that the Portuguese coach was Farhad Moshiri’s favoured candidate, graffiti was daubed on a wall at Goodison that read: “Pereira Out, Lampard In”. The former Chelsea and Derby manager Frank Lampard has also been interviewed for the vacancy.

Weghorst is 6’6’’ apparently

Burnley can’t be accused of having a type.

I love Adama more than Neves. There, I've said it.

What's the point of football if you can't get your kicks watching a greased up mini-hulk dribbling past an entire team of hapless opponents who can't even foul the guy.

If he plays in a team that have competent finishers, he'll be a menace.

Give me Adama over the passing efficiency stats of the double pivot partner blah, blah. Besides, his crossing is way underrated. He makes more crossing opportunities for himself than any player I've seen. Wolves just miss most of the chances he creates.

I read ‘creating crossing opportunities for himself’ as crossing the ball into himself.

How fast is he!?

Watch where he starts and where he finishes.


He's a player that forces opposition to double/treble up on him and that will benefit a team like Barca more than Wolves as we rarely ever make use of it.

Saying that, he did provide the cross that Phil Jones headed to Moutinho a few weeks back. His cross wasn't great but he puts oppositions on the back foot. I am unashamed to say I'll be sad to see him go. But I'd guess Wolves fans are about 50/50. Some love him, some (wrong people) can't wait to see the back of him.

Of course you watch him a lot more than me, so fair enough.

He’s fast and terrifying…. But usually £#%&!s it up. Often due to his own failings. Doesn’t matter who is in the box if your touch is shit or you pick the wrong pass all the time

It seems it would be easier to just let him run through you and then watch him fall over.

He’s certainly a player you pay attention to though, no doubt.
