It worked for Allardyce with Kone at Sunderland and Sakho at Palace - both came in, in the January window and made an instant impact. Let’s hope this has the same effect.

I wake up to the Breaking News... ‘Everton confident of signing Eliaquim Mangala.’ Oh!

1. Cuco Martina 4. Steven Naismith 5. Mo Besic 6. Kevin Mirallas 7. Leon Osman 8. Antolin Alcaraz 10. Steven Pienaar 11. Luke Garbutt

It’s made more stupid when the fact that he played in the ‘Checkatrade or whatever it’s called Trophy’ in an Everton u23 team - so he’s allowed to play in the u23s but just not in that tournament?!

4. Emile Heskey

6. Frank Lampard

7. Ashley Cole

5. Ashley Young

1. Robert Green

10. John Terry

8. Glen Johnson 9. David Beckham

8. West Brom

2-0 down needing to score 4... think it’s safe to say they’re out. Will be interesting to see if Bryan stays. I wonder if Walsh has been sold there as a bit of a sweetener...

Has she got the stamina to get up and down for the full 90?

Our best bet is for them both to be involved in deadline day sagas and not play!

He’s not going to want to miss out on a trip to Wembley if somehow Bristol beat the mancs - I expect, if there’s any truth in our interest, it will have been on hold until that’s sorted.

8 points ahead of bottom of the league and devoid of any confidence or fluidity in our play. We simply must beat Leicester next week as, having watched the gutless performances this season, I dread to think what could happen if we get dragged any deeper into this.

Spot on Rio.

Wow, who said that? I’m sure there’s a stat to back this up but our bad form at the tail end of last season coincided with Coleman’s injury and things have gone from bad to worse since!!! Kenny has done a decent job but he is nowhere near the quality of a fully fit Coleman. Hopefully, Seamus can get back to even somewhere near his best as that’s still a lot better than most in his position.

Oh bless you, still bitter about a tackle that injured a player who later refused to play for your club. I don’t know what’s worse; still pining for Payet or being arsed to set up an account on a club, which you don’t support, forum.

Nope

All that’s missing is Lukaku sniggering in the background.

Our season summed up in one photo...

One more in addition to the other one!
