The transfer window closed last night and when you look at Everton's signings on paper, you have to say it's not bad going.

We've brought in a goalkeeper, a right back, two midfield players and a striker. The manager said he wanted to strengthen the squad and now he has done that.

There's no doubting Louis Saha is a quality player, he...

Well, what a week!!!  Points on the board and new players too!

I was always certain we'd achieve the latter prior to transfer deadline day but after witnessing our opening day performance I wasn't quite so sure about the former. Credit where credit's due though, last weekend's win at West Brom was a hard fought, determined performance that at least...

Okay, Okay, so "Team GB" did manage to haul themselves up the medal table. That though has been the least of my concerns over the last 7 days.
I have to admit to being somewhat worried. My unfounded pre-season optimism is diminishing far too quickly.

As I explained earlier in the week we're using the Swiss team bus and its no wonder they didn't do too well in the European Championships if all they had to occupy them on the way to games...

Once again the day started with a gentle stroll around the golf course at 8am.

At least it's a gentle stroll for some of the staff but it's rather more taxing on the players who have to actually run.

Today's ‘song of the journey' from the hotel to the training pitch was ‘The First Picture of You' by the Lotus Eaters...although it...

It's been another busy day for evertonfc.com over here in Switzerland...but it's been very enjoyable nonetheless.

We accompanied the team to the training pitch this morning and watched as the coaching staff put them through their paces in the warm Alpine sunshine.

I even did a bit of running myself in an attempt to get into some sort of shape. My...
