Presser

[Tarqs]

I liked a lot of what I heard from Wilder until that last part at the very end where he's as clear as he's ever been that he doesn't want foreign players and prefers British players who "work hard."

Saying David Moyes was successful by signing Phil Jagielka and other British players from the Championship is a bit worrying to say the least. That was 20 years ago!

He also had Gravesen in the middle

Only, our players don't seem to work hard either.

A lot to unpack in that one and fair play to Rob Staton, a bit more probing than the usual.

Interesting right at the end ..

Is there a possibility that when you get to January this club could be in a a different position maybe financially to do stuff?

One hundred percent - sometimes you have to do something on short term basis - can't keep selling players can ya cause you're not gonna have anything left . So the owners understand that there's gonna be a time where we have to start investing in players.

Said this to the owners , I don't like people thinking it, I'm never against signing players from from abroad.I just think this culture, this football club, is an Everton under David Moyes. When he signed top championship players for the Premier League signed Jags, he signed Tim Cahill he signed all those other players that pushed them towards the position where they were comfortable in the Premier League .

For me, always understanding the culture, British-based players ideally out of League One and maybe out of League Two and out of Scotland or Scandinavia that have got that mentality, that work ethic that suits us suits me.. or maybe suits the next manager, which I think that there might be a few at the moment would rather be coming in pretty quickly, quicker than maybe it might happen.

So he’s saying the owners are now investing in January…

Fuck me, no wonder we can’t score when the goal posts keep moving.

What happened to waiting until the international break? That’s gone out of the window has it?

Same sound bites, different presser.

 

[Blade56]

But what about the football intelligence?

The big take for me amongst a lot of waffle was the behind the scenes situation with the owners.
Virtually saying they had to sell players to make it to January. Intimated things might (or might hot) change in January financially, wouldn't say that unless something was in the mix. Hard conversations with owners but planning for future with Academy. All that to me suggests one or both main owners want to stay but need an investor as they haven’t got more players to sell. Worrying.

Then we will get to January and nothing will happen. All he is doing is kicking the can down the road and hoping for more time with us fans. He can also take this “culture” stuff with him when he goes, it doesn’t work in this day and age.

 

[Blademan89]

So , 352 does well v a recent PL team and 442 crashes & burns v a L2 team ,
But ,
That's got nothing to do with anything according to Lord Wilder.
FFS , get him gone

But he went in a right tangent mumbling about it not being 442 as we was 3 at the back and then moved to 4 then lopsided formstion then this then that but ended 442 when pressing (even though we didnt press).

not sure he watched same game. We was clearly 2 in middle and blaster on left and 2 up top.

Yeh I thought it sounded like it might just be to keep fans placated for a bit. Hopefully I'm wrong.

Arteta, Yakubu, Yobo, Gravesen, Pienaar, Howard.
Just a few of those hardworking English players from Moyes first Everton stint

I should amend my summary of what Wilder said. He’s talking about British-based players not British players per se.

It’s a bit better but still worrying.

I’ll give it a watch mate when I can bring myself round to it. Although I might just have a ham shank instead because either way I’ll end up with a load of bollox

Any other senior leader in a company openly saying they have a preference for British based employees or applicants wouldn't be in a job long

Tim Cahill is Australian ?

and Tim Cahill isn’t a Brit

I think having "British based employees" might make it a bit easier to get to work in the morning.

Stoke have had two seasons in the Premier League in the last ten years, Chris.

Did no one challenge him?

 

[Pedro's Winger]

Good luck to Lamine Sidibe. Though maybe coming through FURD like Kyle Walker might count in his favour.
