It is incredible to believe that the Premier League are in a position to calculate Everton's PSR position when the issue of the treatment of interest charges remains unresolved.

the Friedkins objective is to make Everton a major news item in world football, to re-energise the Everton fanbase & massively improve the footballing intellect within the club then Mourinho (assuming he is willing) is the obvious choice. Not without risks but bring it on

Great result last night but Dyche not doing himself any favours "the fans are always on edge here" Yes, it's because we care & we see an organisation not meeting the standards we set for our club. Standards that should be viewed as a motivation to do better not a challenge that questions acceptance

Dyche talks about the most difficult aspect of football is goal scoring. The corollary of that must be that defending is the easiest aspect of football. As an entirely defensively minded coach isn't he publicly admitting to his limitations? #Dycheout

Sean Dyche's press conference showed a man under extreme pressure. We've seen the signs from other managers in recent years. Not good when the focus shifts from being about the team to the manager's personal justifications.
