New signing (Pending Official Club Announcement): GK Joe Hart



Guess that is goodbye (again) to Gaza

Coys!!

I think Gazza stays. Signing Hart is a cheap way to free up an international spot

I was a huge Pochettino fan, was really wary of Mourinho, and was also not sure I'd even watch the show given how the season went down, but that is an incredible promo video. Maybe I'll come away with a new perspective on Jose

Looks like another defensive signing about to be completed. This one caught me off guard when reports came out earlier this week:

They are saying that means Serge Aurier is gone BUT who is Doherty backup then???
The numbers scare me as I dont think this is an upgrade....Auriers crosses are terrible, but Doherty doesnt appear to be much better

That's been our problem...our 1st team can play with anyone....when they get hurt we suck

STILL no backup for Harry
STILL not much depth

Need a healthy Ndombele if we dont sell him

Doherty is official. I like the move.



Next up, gotta be a striker right?? ACM just put in a bid of 15M for Aurier that Levy rejected. Looking for 20M. Spurs are dealing right now and I firmly believe there will be a new striker added soon.

COYS!!!

Nice comparison here of Doherty and Aurier:

How do y'all follow team news? I read Cartlidge Free Captain most days, but haven't taken the plunge into podcasts like Last Word on Spurs, etc. Any other good sources?

Coys reddit, but a lot of bad info too

Official site and app has good content. Was fun to see team on SkyWalk

Looking at probable lineups for tomorrow just made me think how different this team is from Champions League a year ago.

2019 Champions League Final (2020 club):
  • Lloris
  • Rose (Genoa?)
  • Vertonghen (Benfica)
  • Alderweirald
  • Trippier (Atletico Madrid)
  • Winks
  • Sissoko
  • Son
  • Erickson (Inter)
  • Dele
  • Kane

  • Vorm (?)
  • Gazzaniga
  • Sanchez
  • KWP (Southampton)
  • Foyth
  • Aurier (?)
  • Davies
  • Lamela
  • Wanyama (Montreal Impact)
  • Dier
  • Lucas
  • Llorente (Napoli)

2020 Probable Opening Day:
  • Lloris
  • Davies
  • Dier
  • Alderweirald
  • Doherty
  • Hojbjerg
  • Sissoko
  • Son
  • Dele
  • Lucas
  • Kane

  • Gazzaniga
  • Aurier
  • Sanchez
  • Winks
  • Lamela
  • Ndombele
  • Bergwijn

Add to that Lo Celso (injured), Fernandes, & Tanganga and that's a lot of new faces.

I really only started following 5 years or so ago, understand there was some funk in the locker room at the end of the 2019 run, and get that there will probably be more changes ahead as Mourinho remakes the team in his image. Just seems like that's a decent amount of turnover in such a short period of time

Anyway, excited for this season & have really been enjoying All Or Nothing

I can't believe how much I'm enjoying Jose on All or Nothing

Excited to see how they look tomorrow

Hope we have a team full of ****s and not nice guys

Correct, it is free 7 day trial though

If Peacock really replaces all of NBC Sports, I'm happy with that. It's no longer $50+ extra for every single add on (cycling, soccer, etc etc). Plus there is some tv programming that will be ad free

Everton haven't won away to a 'big six' side in the Premier League since December 2013.

Weird match to watch. My gut reaction is that I actually liked the way we played. Just once again couldn't get the space needed to create more opportunities

I liked seeing Doherty get forward, but thought he did look spent in the second half as the announcers pointed out.

Dier has to do better on that header. I can't decide who makes me more nervous back there between him and Sanchez.

I think Dele is our most creative player, but idk what the halftime substitution was about. Makes me worry this has shades of the Pogba dispute at MU.

IMO, Davison is so much better than Dier

I tend to agree. Although it seems like I hold my breath every time either one of them is in a one-on-one. Toby seems like a lock, so we'll get one or the other each week

Will Jose really be able to remake The team in his image without deep pockets?

Eric Dier is just not it....he's too slow to play midfield....I dont think he's smart enough to be CB...I really dont have a problem him coming on late when we have a lead and subbing off a small midfielder (Winksy) but playing 90 min at CB is scary...easily the worst CB in teams trying to be in the Top 7

Im just amazed we can't score with Son, Alli, Lucas, and Kane up top.....it's mind boggling....

That said...Davies is our weakest link...he doesn't have speed, size, or ability to do much of anything....no defense.....cant get a cross past the first guy.....every team just lets him have as much space as he wants and it mucks up everything. I really think we change him out for even a below average Premier League level LB and we're in decent shape

As much as I'd like to see Bale back as a fan, I don't want to see Dele sent the other direction

A new LB will make me cry years of joy
