No2

What he done after the match was unhelpful, disrespectful, stupid, petulant, it was a lot of things, none of them positive but it was wasn't unforgivable. Put it this way, if Mo was 29 we would have found a way to move on.

I still think there is a place for Mo. His days of scoring 25 league goals are gone but he can still be valuable to the team/squad. Diaz is another ons getting a lot of heat because he isn't prolific. We can play other ways, how about being able to win 1-0? If the plan is we need to score 3 to win then sell both of them.

Unforgivable has been used a lot. That's way over the top, 2 ultra competitive humans had a spat in the middle of a difficult period. It is what it is, kiss and make up and both will retain deserved legend status for ever. I certainly don't want Jordan Ibe running down the wing in a charity match because Mo is persona non grata.

Fair play for putting that out, the composure 20 minutes after the final whistle was remarkable. While the lads were generally shit, I thought you let the ref off way too easy. He was their man of the match in the period where they set the tone and created their only chances. He gave them literally everything so it's hypocritical to say treat it as a Derby but also not fall into the trap of allowing them fall to the ground. On my count it was 9 frees to 1 at one stage so John's point about just fall down doesn't stack up, we gave us nothing, some of the tackles would have been VAR reviews in a normal match. I'm well pissed off with the lads but I have sympathy, it's 3 or 4 years of this death by a thousand cuts shit. We weren't playing badly, we created multiple situations but its hard to keep battling against the world. Particularly against that type of team, fall to the ground, load the box, launch it into the box, our team isn't built for that. Then they fouled Virgil on every free in the first half bar the one they scored from, he didn't get a single free. We only had 2 big lads, they had 5 or 6 and an obliging referee, most defences will eventually crack in that scenario, on reflection Gomez or Endo should have started. All avoided though if any of the forwards could kick a ball straight.

For me Virgil is the safest bet ro retain. Based on the eye test Mo looks a risk but if the data says otherwise then I'd offer him an extension. For the first time my opinion on Trent has moved to not arsed. Two throws in at Fulham that went over his head, the Dacoure run, the missed header and non challenge for the 2 Everton goals are unacceptable. Who the fuck does he think he is? The internet would explode if Elliot or Szoboszlai done that. Walking about on the first 3 and not bothering on the last 2, that's Chelsea behaviour. I think his attitude has reached an irretrievable point, I can't think of any player that thought they had shit that didn't smell that suddenly turned it around. He's acting like Neymar without the flights to Rio. With Bradley ready to step up I'd let him have his 18 in months in Madrid and then buy him back.

Fans of Ipswich, Leicester and Southampton will have seen Leeds score an offside goal the other night. I'd bet right now that they(their fans) are more willing to accept that mistake and keep the game as is rather than introducing the shit show that is VAR.

I've never known 2 Dutch people that don't hate each other.

Trent, Virgil and Mo all have 12 months remaining. I can't see any scenario were all 3 reach agreements on new contracts. If we have to sell 1, who is it?

Accidentally shot in the head. And probably by Hamas.

Best thing about last night is this threads no longer concerns us.

Only heard today that Christy Moore was the only man to appear in court over the Stardust tragedy, were 48 young people died. He was in court for contempt over the lyrics "the fire exits where chained", the inquest this week of course proved where locked.

It is concerning, we can sell the lad because he didn't deliver. Stig or Usher or any of his biggest fan boys couldn't argue he wasn't given a fair crack. We can do that without a blame game, the club has been water tight for a number of years, nobody benefits from these hit jobs. Edwards might think he does but he's wrong.

That's really concerning, Klopp hasn't left the building and leaks to support their own ends are starting already.

I'd have last nights performance playing in the back ground when he's negotiating a new contract. It was shameful.

Gonna take some spread sheet to explain that performance.

Sell him to shit first touch FC.

Clattenburg I assumed

Offer me the prospect of winning the league if Spurs get a result against Arsenal and I'm snapping the hand off you.

Dolly also wrote a song the she gave away free of charge to one of her friends that fell on hard times. Can't remember who it was or what song but it was another classic that made the chap a fortune.

It's not meant to be funny, I'd be well up for rolling the dice on De Zerbi but equally I could see that happening. Brentford come for the nil nil, if we want to wait for them to break their shape we'll be a long time waiting.

I could envisage a situation where Virgil stands on the ball like Dunk does and nobody engages him at all. He's literally standing there breaking PL possession records.

Could they get themselves 10 points clear of relegation and then hit the administration button?

777 will make more of a return on that £200m than they ever will if they buy the club. As long as Everton can pay back the monthly installments that is.

Watching a documentary on Chelsea in the 80s, Ken Bates installed electric fences at Stamford Bridge in 1985. Fucking hell.

I really wish Jurgen would just lie sometimes, say nothing today and tomorrow just say he's ill. Announcing a 2 week injury just spreads gloom.
