Okay, so they bought him and we've loaned him off of them. Confusing, but will we buy him outright off them?

Basically he'd agreed terms with us, but Anderlecht wanted to rort more money out of us because we are an English club. Olympiakos "bought" him & loaned him to us for a lesser amount. If he impresses enough, we will sign him from Olympiakos for the amount they paid or maybe even slightly more. It's dodgy in a way, but it shows we weren't going to bow down to zee Belgians
 
Should be Naismith off for Garbutt, Baines up to left CM, Besic up to CF. Can't play this passing brand when you have two cement footed strikers in Nasmith and Lukaku. Either that or start playing to our strengths and continually go wide and cross the ******* thing.
 
No plan B, not one shot on target is embarrassing at home, 65% plus possession & well over double the amount of opposition passes. Glad I didn't get up to watch it, now angry because the followed the last half hour on my phone when I woke up. We are a joke, can't see where out next win is coming from. Palace, redshite & Chelsea our next 3 games I think
 
That much ball, we should've been putting so much pressure on their defence, their keeper barely had to make a match saving save, get the ball and pass pass pass and then move up the field to just outside the box and pass pass pass and then kick it back, not 1 player prepared to take on the defence.

As for the penalty, where the hell was Jags, he should of marched down there and told Baines to take it, Kev, if you want to take a penalty you better make sure you nail it.

Sam Allardyce hit the nail on the head with Roberto, he is too easy to work out because he is set in his ways and is to stubborn to change, not a truer word said because unless RM changes his ways we are headed for the championship, next three games will be LLL unless someone decides to take the game on and stop the rot.

Only bonus is that we've got a week & a half to regroup, get some players fit/fitter & hopefully come out with a point to prove (yes this should have been proven months ago). If Kenwright doesn't want to make money available for much needed signings, he better get his wallet out for a team bonding getaway to Switzerland/Portugal/Sweden/anywhere out of the UK.
 
Why the **** would Martinez take off Besic? Is he actually trying to lose? What a tool.
Ah, apparently Martinez claiming he was injured. Doesn't look injured to me, looks perplexed and annoyed...

Yeah taking Besic off was a s**t move, the commentators said he isn't likely to score or create but he was single handedly winning the ball back and keeping it in our attacking half, as soon as he went off they had some sustained attack. As was Mirallas, s**t move taking the penalty but ******* ream him out and move on, because taking him off hurt the whole team not just him.

All good had he scored, but it hurt. If the injury talk is true that's fair enough, but had we been 1-0 we could have cruised with him still out there. So spot on with it hurting everyone, especially the fans.
 
Gary Neville, analysing the game for Sky, described the incident as “a scandal”. He said: “If he’s gone against team orders or manager’s orders and selfishly taken the ball, it’s one of the most despicable breaches of team spirit you can possibly have. You do not do that at any cost.

“It doesn’t get much worse. You can punch someone, you can go over the top and break someone’s leg, which is unnecessary, in a tackle, but to go against team orders in the dressing room is terrible. It’s one of the worst things you can do.”

His fellow pundit Jamie Carragher said Mirallas, subject of interest from Tottenham Hotspur and Borussia Dortmund in the January transfer window, made “a shocking decision” and that Mirallas would be “looking for another club” in the summer.
Righto blokes. I know we were mad too but this seems like an overreaction.

Tottenham are trying to tempt Everton into selling penalty bad-boy Kevin Mirallas – and are willing to offer Aaron Lennon in part exchange.

Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino is keen to sign the Belgian wideman, who has just 18 months left on his Goodison deal.

Everton chief Roberto Martinez is desperate to keep hold of the 27-year-old despitethe storm over him failing from the spot, after over-ruling designated penalty taker Leighton Baines during Monday’s 0-0 draw with West Brom.

But Tottenham are ready to spend and are also keen to off-load England winger Lennon, who is also 27 and has a year and a half left on his contract.

Spurs chairman Daniel Levy is unlikely to start the bidding with a significant cash offer for Mirallas – preferring to offer a small fee, plus Lennon – who is believed to be keen on a move to the Goodison club.
You wish.
