Doesn't matter what we think. Bony is better than Lukaku. There will be a lot of City fans who will laugh at that. he has become a laughing stock and that is part of the problem. Few have faith in him. He was under a lot of pressure when Aguero was out and didn't do well, but missed pre-season due to malaria. Quality player though.
Of course he is better than Lukaku. I shake my head when I see folks here mention getting Lukaku. Bony Mach II I say.
 
Bill being a wum, and people biting. Who'd have thunk it...

is this re Everton? people , no some people, have let this success and money go to their heads. just for the sake of clarity, yes we are a big big club, a big club that has grown with the injection of a large amount of money. now if for one minute you strip that away, same with the rags, things even themselves out. Villa, Spurs, Newcastle and others are all very big clubs. someone said Stones should move to the "bigger" club, well we are simply richer. that's it. Fan base has grown of course, success does that. not always for the best I might add. ipad selfies are overtaking away days :(

I understand what you said was partially correct, of course Everton are a big club with a decent history and big following (just like Newc and Villa), but they are miles behind us now and are not classed as a big club in present day.

You say just richer but that's rubbish, of course the wealth got us to where we are, but we have Champs League, great stadium, training facilities etc etc - all trappings of wealth of course, but to say we aren't classed as a bigger club that Everton is just idiotic.

Of course we are a bigger club at the moment. The kind of money Everton will be able to spend can change that in a short time if their owners are wise.

For me, it is the whole project of our owners that has made us a Big Club even if at times we have spent their money on some iffy players.

If it wasn't for this vision, yea, I might wonder how quickly a lot of money and a little success might change things. The money in the Premiership means the end of four or five clubs dominating. But money and success only buys stature if done wisely. Our owners are doing that.

Agreeing with you twice in a week! It's the same argument as "we've got no history". I find it incredible that we are were we are, especially as less than 8 years ago, we were very nearly no more. Gone in a puff of administration followed by liquidation.
We should always remember where we've been and what we've come from. I cannot believe city fans would feel the need to belittle any team and crow about status after all the years of shit we put up with from Trafford.
