@Lord Tyrion do you see him leaving this window?
It depends if the offer is big enough. If someone offers £75m then we will sell. We've already got a replacement/back up, Jake O'Brien, bought this window.

We don't have to sell, at a low price, but equally we know the score. It probably depends on the desperation of the buying clubs really, 11 days to see if teams get twitchy 😄

Not really seen that much of him tbh.
Man Utd & Liverpool bidding war could be good for Everton.

He was very good for us last year, a proper defender but okay on the ball as well. The numbers being talked about are silly but that's the market at the moment, particularly for a young English player.

If two teams want to make the price even sillier, happy days 😊

Difficult to see Utd in a bidding war now. When fit, probably got Martinez, De Ligt and Yoro looking to be 1st choice, plus we have Maguire, Evans and Lindelof.

Throwing £70million plus at Branthwaite will surely cause more headaches than solutions. I suspect Branthwaite was a consideration at the start of the window, but Utd ultimately went for other options

Commentators were guessing but impossible to know from their angle until they put the lines but takes forever

The level of diving in this game has gone up a notch

Savinho looks a decent player but clearly has no right foot

Got to be some sort of basket case of a club to give Enzo the captaincy after what he was caught doing
Yes looks like they practice calling for a pen!
Part of training 😳

So the refs call will carry more weight this season.
But isn’t that why we ended up with VAR in the first place ?

The refs called it wrong to many times so they invented VAR.
But there worse now imo.

Guys in the office were discussing the weekends football, they showed me Everton's disallowed penalty. How on earth did the referee change his decision without seeing the incident on the VAR screen?

Disappointed we couldn't get a draw on Friday but glaringly obvious there are big holes in midfield without Paulinha, the defence is creaky and we aren't getting many goals this season without a proven striker. Hoping the club is busy behind the scenes as it could be a long season
