Really poor performance. Apart from 5 minutes in 2nd half we showed absolutely nothing in final 3rd. Desperately need at least 1 striker brought in asap.

Playing one striker, a very young one who is not even an out an out striker, with no support from midfield as they are all sitting too far back does not help. A new striker won't change those tactics.

Everton In The Community is to be awarded the Freedom of the City of Liverpool to mark its 30 years in operation.

He said that the Board is close to finalising a deal whereby two-thirds of the development costs will be funded by the investment vehicle created by Liverpool City Council that will provide the club access to lower-interest loan facilities.

Work on how to finance the final third is "ongoing". The construction is projected to start in a year's time and will take three years to complete, allowing for Everton to kick off the 2022/23 season in their new home if all goes to plan.

Any thoughts on this new Turk striker?
I've have never seen him play but I like the way he's got two good feet and looking at his scoring record on Wiki he looks like he's been improving every year though do you see who is the third top scorer in Turkey last year.
Unreal. No wonder Niasse did well out there too.

Pos.   Player   Team   Goals
1   Brazil           Vágner Love   Alanyaspor      23
2   Turkey         Cenk Tosun   Beşiktaş           20
3   Cameroon     Samuel Eto'o   Antalyaspor   18
4   Bosnia and H Riad Bajić   Konyaspor         17
5   Cameroon      Kweuke   Çaykur Rizespor   14

They must defend like a bunch of headless chickens in Turkey  :P

LOL at Everton.
why is that 'LOL at everton'?? the mayor is asking what most everton fans are asking, why did barkleys agent get a £7million fee from a £15million transfer?

From the Bunker

I see the throwing of mud from the media has started. Looks like Holgate is now the one being chased!

https://www.balls.ie/football/evertons-mason-holgate-faces-ban-homophobic-tweets-380985

Last week's derby FA Cup tie had lots of talking points. From Virgil Van Dijk's debut winner, the contentious Lallana penalty, the callback from the league game with a contentious penalty going in the opposite direction, Mason Holgate shoving Roberto Firmino over the advertising hoarding into the crowd going completely unpunished by referee Bobby Madley leading of course to the darker element that's hung over the fixture: Holgate accusing Firmino of using racist language against him.

There is still no decision made on that situation but Holgate's complaints seem to have opened up an unsavoury elements of his own past. A history of using homophobic language during Twitter exchanges.

The Everton defender has since deleted the Tweets but, as the general rule goes, once something appears on the internet it can never really be deleted. The Tweets were sent from his account back in 2012 and 2013 but they could see the 21 year old face a lengthy ban. He is now under investigation from the FA after the incident was highlighted following the Firmino bust up.

It was first believed that Holgate had deleted his Twitter following the Firmino clash and abuse he was receiving from Liverpool fans. The offensive tweets sent by the player contained the words "f**got", "fag" and "batty".

There is precedent in this kind of a case, for example Watford's Andre Gray. In 2016 Grey was suspended from playing for four matches whilst playing for Burley when he was found guilty of six aggravated breaches of FA rules for homophobic comments made on social media.

The FA continue to investigate the situation from last Friday night's game at Anfield, with no decision made yet on Firmino's alleged racist language.
