| Steve Grant @SteveGrant1983 | @MitchLeTiss42 Huge difference between QSF and RK is right there, RK changes the system to reinvigorate people, QSF kept it all the same.6 minutes ago |

| Steve Grant @SteveGrant1983 | @JWTelegraph Genuinely don’t see any reason why he’d go to Everton. Ignore club history, it’s a step backwards at the moment.36 minutes ago |
