@ManwithnonameCD True dat, according to both Chelsea and the Premier League, signing Eden Hazard, Samuel Eto'o, Willian, Ramires, David Luiz, André Schürrle and Nemanja Matic on the back of unauthorised payments to agents gave Chelsea no sporting benefit on the pitch
9yrs ago Pickford left Sunderland for Everton
He has played 1 season in Europe in that, first year he joined
Since then Sunderland have
Relegated to the C’Ship
Relegated to League one
Stayed in L1 for a bit
Promoted to C’Ship
Promoted to the PL
And themselves got Europe
Losers
Days since players last got more than 10 minutes (excluding added time) in an Everton game:
Harrison Armstrong - 61
Charly Alcaraz - 84
Tyler Dibling - 84
Nathan Patterson - 89
Merlin Rohl - 97
Adam Aznou - 105
Looks like @Everton are getting it right in so many ways.
Incredible stadium.
Manager who gets the club.
Back to signing players whose best days are ahead of them rather than behind them.
Commiserations to @ChelseaFC fans.
Sharing their 🍺 with me on the train to London.
Moyes has got us from 16th and a relegation battle to 8th and chasing Europe in a single year and there are STILL idiots on here begging for him to be sacked 🤣
Absolutely unbelievable.
I’m well aware of his full history at Everton, but I think Nathan Patterson has acquitted himself quite well of late when being asked to play right back. #EFC
The issues that led to this disastrous week were self-inflicted and so the excuses have to stop 🔵⚽
Everton had an open road to zoom into with three home games but instead David Moyes had to pull in and stick the hazards on.

Never forget, the Tories smuggled in thousands of Afghans including known sex offenders, took out a super injunction to hide it from the British people, and called a general election when they learnt it would soon be lifted.
Traitors.
