# The Definitive Everton ‘Keep or Sell’ List

Perhaps a ‘Keep in and around the first team or don’t’ would have been a more apt title, but I’m not looking to make my title longer than my articles, so we have what we have.

But moving on… Hello again! It’s been a quick minute and Sam Allardyce has yet to be sacked (Typed on 2018, 13th May, 7:52pm, so don’t crucify me if by the time this novel reaches the surface of the world-wide-web that he has been dispatched).

My time off, assuming you won’t snitch and tell the boss [@CuffWrites](https://twitter.com/CuffWrites) on Twitter, who you definitely shouldn’t follow or listen to his podcast by the way (Editor’s Note: [UTF](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4TB31j7oVcnNHYpXgtaaRg),  cheers x), was basically an excuse for a sweet escape from watching any more of the Everton SoccerBall Superstars this season, and I’ve enjoyed every second of my gardening leave.

But I’m back to not-really-slave away at your behest over the British summer when all I’ll be thinking of is not-Everton.

And our little quest starts here.

Is there anyone worth keeping? Not really, but I promise I’ll tag some as good enough to stay, lest you click off the already-spoiled article right now.

Actually, except Pickford. Pickford is boss and he can tend my nets for many moons.
