I didn't say it at half-time, but I don't like 3 at the back. It seems to leave us even more vulnerable to attacks down the wings. On Blackburn's second goal, Kelly was out to cover and I think that left enough space in the box for Armstrong to convert the chance with some ease. Instead we...

I don't like the formation. I would prefer a 3-5-2, probably have Danjuma playing a bit deeper on the wing. Lerma has looked terrible going forward, and mediocre in defence. Solanke seems out of sorts. Lewis Cook has been playing with a lot of energy.

Rico injured, according to the stream

I'm in!

A Sunderland-following friend of mine used to complain that the non-iFollow service the club had implemented was a pile of dog poo. So I'm not very hopeful about the prospects of anything like that.

It seems like you would need a separate e-mail address for each club.

Too Red Sox for me.

Honestly, I don't think there'll be much choice beyond iFollow. I paid $64 for the NBC Premier League Pass last season, which meant I had access to all the Bournemouth matches. (And, in fact, all matches, but I didn't really have time to take full advantage of that.) iFollow is going to be...

Most of the points I would want to make have already been made by others, but... I believe the club missed Aké in the Soton game. Of course, would they have bounced back for Everton if Aké's presence had secured a point against Soton? That goal against Spurs should have been given. I don't...

I'm all in favour of a salary cap as long as there is also a dividend cap, a ticket-price cap, a food-and-drink cap, a television rights cap, etc. Basically it's a way to force owners into financial discipline by screwing the players' wages. If you want to improve competition, the best way is...

I don't think Lerma will stay. He's started for the Colombian national side and probably wants top top-division football, so a Premiership, La Liga or Serie A side seems likely for him.

The Cowley Bros would be interesting, and would guarnatee the club some attention from the Not the Top 20 podcast people.

Whether Eddie Howe walked out or was pushed out, as a decision it makes sense either way. I've been in his shoes, trying to run something and it just not working out, week after week. It's quite destructive of the self-esteem, and I'm sure when Howe saw Aké's injury he must have felt that...

I check this site every day to see if Wilson's been sold. It would be my top priority after cashing-in on Aké.

I live in the States now so it's fairly easy to keep ignorant of the football results for a while if one wants to, but back in Blighty it might be more difficult.

I was thinking more of how he guesses where attackers are going to run. Maybe anticipation is the wrong word.

The Everton Cup is awarded to the best team that isn't Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Man C, Man U or Spurs, in memory of Everton having once been part of the 'Big 5'.

Rico is one of my favourites. When Bournemouth bought him, I looked at his WhoScored.com rating in the Spanish league and I thought he would transition well to the Premiership. Then he hardly played in the first season. This year he has been given a proper run-out and I've been impressed...

I've used iFollow to watch a few AFC Wimbledon matches. (BITD, I used to live near Selhurst Park and became a fan of Wimbledon as my premiership side because you could get a ticket to most matches.) One trick I learned was not to buy a match pass and decide to watch the match later. After...

That was some match. I thought Rico had a poor first half, a lot of bad decisions. I also thought Gosling was showing his limitations. I was listening to a Football Ramble podcast and they were talking about midfielders who bustle about trying to make up for a lack of raw talent. I thought...
