Everton <laugh> oh dear
91st minute OG to lose, bless their little broken blue hearts <laugh>

Shame they’ll stay up, unless they get further points deductions.

He's playing for Real Madrid, it's a step down for him.

I had to re-read the Joselu link a few times and question if I was sober.

Joselu being linked with Manchester United in some quarters.

Joselu, Southgate and Maxim Chupo-Moting for them at the start of next season!

Sean's on record as basically saying Bruce completely stunted his development, it's hardly a stretch to suggest that applies to other players.
Everyone certainly went backwards under Bruce, whether they be first team or young players. Can’t think of a single player who improved under his ‘coaching’.

That said, Sean probably isn’t going to come out and throw his brother under a bus and say “he got a bit big for his boots and didn’t apply himself” either.

Probably harsh on Bruce to be fair. He did give him a fair crack, I think it's more a case of him just not being good enough for PL, I think if he gets back on track after his injury then MLS/Championship is probably a level he could make a decent go at.

Yeah he's been training and rehabbing with the club throughout his free agency, I don't think he's gone on bad terms. I think he'll do a job at Toronto, he looked a really promising player but had it curtailed through a combination of bad loans and Steve Bruce.

Makes his attempt at getting a big contract even more silly now. Think he potentially damaged a lot of relations within the club and probably made a bad name for himself. That whole saga did change my option of him.
Pretty sure the club took care of him through his rehab even after his contract ran out. I think them not extending his contract had a lot more to do with him not demonstrating he's good enough to deserve one, and less to do with it being anything personal or related to any past negotiations.

I hope he brings more Geordie magic to Toronto than Carver did as manager...supporters here complaining about recent managerial hires must have a short memory if they forget his abominable tenure.

His career has really tanked massively, even pre-injury he had some poor loan spells at a pretty low level of football and struggled. Not sure if it’s attitude or something else. Maybe a fresh start somewhere completely new will do him good.

Matty Longstaff signing for Toronto.
Just came to post this too. First impression suggests fans here have tempered expectations, but think it's at least worth a roll of the dice if he can get back after this ACL injury. Has apparently be trialing with TFC - so they'll have a sense of his fitness. Hope the club can turn it around, they've really lost a lot of support over the past few years with a series of bad front office, coaching and player hires.

Dunno, reckon Man City would still win the title most years with a -10 handicap.

Won't they just end up breaching it again next year though and get another points deduction like what's going to happen with Everton?

Surely they got to do something about it at some point u less they want to be 10 points down every season.
