Everton deffo serious relegation contenders now that Lampard has the job. What exactly has he done as a manager to get 2 well paid PL jobs?? Chelsea were keek under him and they spent 200 mill.

If only we had an once of ambition, Aaron Ramsey / Jesse Lingard, if only loan deals until end of season, both could have done a decent job. Both i expect will move today to Prem clubs.

Three players who wouldn’t have broken the bank and covered holes we have

Ramsey - RB - Aberdeen
Ferguson- also Aberdeen - high energy mid/attacking mid who can score goals - not quite sure why he hasn’t been snapped up already by an EFL or PL team
knight - derby - covers all of midfield positions and again high energy

All three young enough to play in u23 and all have a lot of first team experience so can slot in.

That or something similar would surely have been better than nothing.

Midfield as opposed to wide midfield seems to be where we have allot of very young players coming through and so a bit of cover with experience of first team would have seemed sensible if we weren’t going to sign big.

of course, it was obvious that even though it was a "must win" game against the football powerhouse that is Canada they couldn't be bothered to show up. He was just another piece of flotsam going through the motions for a mediocre team with millions of players to pick from and some great facilities to develop them.

All good though. we lost 2-0 to a country that plays football 3 months a year. gutless and he's one of the "leaders".

Just what we need.

America subbed half the team desperate time, desperate measures. Never mind.

So basically. Almost every one around us is freshening/strengthening.
So much for “January is a bad time to do business “
Well it clearly is for us anyway.
Unless our injury list has magically cleared up, we’re fked.
Sad and depressed.
Feel like we’ve just been beat again, without even playing.

Oh well, we go with what we have, just hope its enough.
Just how many of Orta"s so called targets, have or do we actually sign? He has weeks to scout, watch endless matches, prepare all the necessary homework, but by and large they all fall flat, and as for a Plan B or C, no chance.
So what does he do for the next 3-4 months, plan more unrealistic targets, pipe dreams - as jobs go, he aint got a bad one.

I can't resist, he does f00k all, has done f00k all and will never do anything else but f00k all, but OMG I wish just for once he would prove me wrong. Gone, seriously.

The wise old owl thinks Radz is packing his suitcase. He's made his loot. No point throwing more money in if he is vacating premises in summer. If we go down, the parachute is there. 49ers know the brand and fanbase. Us sheep will follow and spend regardless of which league.
