    Little bit :bandit:

    But benteke doesn't have enough big impact. Only really made a difference in 2 games this year that I can remember and that's those 2 1/0 wins (and even then he should have had atleast 2 in each with the 1v1s he's missed in both games).

    If he wasn't having an big impact in team play but his goals were winning us points on a regular basis then would be hard to argue, but fact remains when he's played he just hasn't had that impact on a regular enough basis, certainly not for a first team player

    Yes Sturridge scored against West Brom so it's 1-1 without Suarez's goals which is 1 point for a draw. Suarez's hattrick earns the other 2 points for the win.

    I've pointed out #doingalukaku because it's funny how Everton fans love to look at goals scored by Lukaku this year, or their defenders last year, without considering whether it got them anywhere <ok>

    #doingalukaku is now becoming so obvious others are picking up on it, forcing you to become very defensive over it

    I think thats the point Astro was pointing out. Big Ben has won Pool 10 points in his LIMITED game time essentially making him more useful the Lukaku and probably most of Pools strikers.

    Anyway i digress... Astros point of view is certainly interesting and not something i completely disagree with (similar to Fergie sacking Ruud of even though he was a goalscoring machine).

    No one cares what you think MITO. Stick to making us some great mafia games or talking about how crap Moreno is :p

    Has he? I can't remember him being involved in too much other than those wins over Xmas but maybe because I've wiped the first half of season from memory <whistle>

    Exactly, it is a bit of a wind up, but it is an interesting point. No one is saying lukaku is ****, far from it, he's walk into most teams in the league based on his record, however big game players score goals when t matters. They score in finals, or the score winners.

    Its easy to to score the 5th goal in a 5-0 win, in grand scheme of things it doesn't mean much, but scoring the only goal in a 1-0 that's where the big players make their name and prove their worth.

    What point was this?

    The complete ****e about a player who scores half the amount of goals being supposedly better if he's fortunate enough to have got Billy the Fish between the sticks behind him?

    Stick to netball x

    He's hurting mate.

    As their strikers are ****e, and the player he decided was a complete waste of money at £28m has made him look a complete mug.

    A bit like the player who we signed for small change and is now worth £50m who he still reckons is ****e <laugh>

    Stones is another one I was ahead of the curve on

    Now the hype has died down and Mourinho is out of a job (he was desperate to spunk a load of money) people are looking at Stones again and realising he's a great athlete but zero brain, the defensive equivalent of Walcott

    Yeah lad, like that's nothing other than a figment of your #bitter imagination.

    Kop legend Hansen disagreed only 2 days ago.......

    #summary of Tobes' nonsense:

    We're a selling club because Suarez was actually good enough to go to Barcelona.
    Everton aren't a selling club because their players generally aren't good enough to get a move, even the likes of Mirallas who pissed all over the club so hard with the penalty that he was #nailedon to leave until they realised no one else wanted him.
    Stones is great because a pundit says he could go to Barcelona. There's hasn't actually been a move or even a bid, but the hypothetical scenario proves his quality, but also in no way implies Everton would be a selling club.

    1. Chelsea are not Barcelona
    2. That was a #desperate power play by Mourinho
    3. Chelsea also paid £27m for Cuadrado
