• This call for playing Aznou instead of McNeil is based on his very impressive cameo against Sunderland yet when the team that played against Forest was changed where McNeill was instrumental in both goals there was outrage. Yes I was impressed with Aznou on Saturday because of his energy when he came on but will he be as impactful starting is anyone’s guess. That decision is easy if you don’t have the responsibility for the performance. I remember similar calls to try players for Carabou cup game and when that backfired it has now become a missed opportunity. The primary impious that we pick a team that can get something out of the game on Sunday from a team who are clothe form team in PL tos bring back some confidence in the team after recent poor performances ...
  Neil Cremin in Aston Villa vs Everton: Preview, Predicted Lineups and Where to Watch
• I think Moyes has 'the last word' only when 'The 3 Amigos' give him a choice of 2 between Crap and Crapper. KDH and Rohl (IMO obvs) are Moyes style players from the infamous 'whiteboard wall' Grealish...not so sure - Doesn't tick many boxes on the arl whiteboard wall; 'Old' Expensive, Slows the game up?? Though I think he may have been pleasantly surprised until Referee Clapping-gate Anzou - sorry, can't see him being anything to do with Moyes. Dibling & Barry? - Nobody's going to put their hand up for picking any of those two. ...

• Personally I think starting with McNeill and bringing Aznou on later is not unreasonable. He needs to be gradually introduced. Same with Dibbling, he should be introduced later in the game. There's a good player in there but for whatever reason he seems to be finding it hard to adjust to Everton....

• So, Moyes has the final word on buying Barry, as well as players he has hardly played. Remember that Kinnear said that we will buy only 'exceptional' players. This is utter arse-covering gibberish. “It’s not like we’ve shut ourselves off from the transfer window. We need players more than ever and we probably need them as soon as possible if we could make that happen. - But more than likely, this month is never done particularly quickly, so we’re still looking. I’m not sure we will get anything but we’re trying.” This twaddle opens things and then closes them just in case. But OMG Moyes is sooooooooooooo 'realistic'. He is sooooooooo 'pragmatic'. TFG/ace and crack recruitment team, your manager is saying that 'we need players more than ever'. Get on the diagnostics fellas. See if Roma can lend us some money. Hurry up, 16/17 days and counting, isn't it? A gaffer who plays McNeil again and again apparently has the last word on recruitment. Yet TFG-b...
