Romey 1878 Posted February 3, 2009 Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 Moyes has said there is " something " in the clause to have an option to buy but he isnt to bothered about that at the moment. He probably won't ever need to be either. Even if he performs well we could never afford him without Billy Liar prostituting himself for a few years . That being said, I think he'll do fuck all for us. I'll be happy to be proven wrong though, we need a striker and goals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue4Ever Posted February 3, 2009 Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 (edited) I dont think moyes would have bothered about a first option on Jo's if it wasn't alot lower than the 19 million, maybe we have negotiated a lower fee at the end of the season for maybe around 10, I think he could just turn out class.

Ghost in my house Posted February 3, 2009 Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 Tell me about it .I'm the Darker shade of Blue Having a bit of fun with them . BTW guys , Moyes has said that ' yes ' , there is an option to buy in the deal I've registered on here so that I can continue to be a pain in your arse ;-) One thing to consider, lads, Jo wasn't a Hughes signing, so giving MH grief for not persevering with him is a little unfair. As I've said over on Bluemoon, I hope he does well for you...for his own sake as much as ours. Me mam's dad was an Evertonian. I was going through some old stuff in the loft and came across a cup final ticket from '68. That was my attempt at "I come in peace"!

I'll be happy to be proven wrong though, we need a striker and goals. Ok , not all strikers , but you're looking at the leading goal scorers at present in the prem . Exactly which one would do well for us ? Take away the usual suspects who we could never afford , and not much left . My point being that the best in the prem have only scored a few more than the others , but if they went on sale , would cost how much ?

adamsmith69 Posted February 4, 2009 Report Share Posted February 4, 2009 i actually joined a man city forum called blue moon, seem to be a nice bunch of guys in there except for the odd usual plank. as has been said he is cup tied so can't play. I do believe we have sorted a fee out for a permanent transfer at the end of the season though. Here is to hoping he succeeds in the royal blue where he failed in the sky blue.

BlueBri Posted February 5, 2009 Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 Firstly, thanks to the City fans who have registered to bring their thoughts. Always a pleasure to hear what other teams fans think, adds perpective. I personally think Jo could be a runaway success. He was one of Moyes top targets. You have to remember that we were priced out as big money backers came into the market and prices were inflated. I mean come on guys, how much for Bellamy and £100 million for Kaka??? I'm glad he turned that down, that would have been the death of football. We have missed a big imposing Centre Forward and he could fill that gap well, especially with our wide players. I know he probably won't play that way as he is more of a striker, but if he stays, think about him and the Yak up front. If he can master the classic Centre Forward role, Yak is very good at finding space and shows good movement. Could be a match made in heaven.

jofanon Posted February 5, 2009 Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 It wasn't perading at all. Its typical Moyes genius. He get's to feel like one of the boys and he says the desire that the other players have. I think its a very astute thing to do. It says to Jo "you are one on the boys now and part of the team, look at how much they want to succeed". He is a clever man Moyesy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dark Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 http://www.evertonfc.com/news/archive/jo-raring-to-go.html I'm warming to him. Can't really like or dislike him at the moment because we haven't seen him play. He's been making the right noises suggesting he's going to be a valuable team member but until tomorrow we can't know 100% if he's the man Everton need. Let's just wait and see.

Glenda MCFC Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 ok i am a city fan, but im only on here to tell you about JO. ok here goes jo is one of worst players i have ever seen play for city and we have had a lot of bad players in the past 1. he spends more time on the floor than on the ground he is very week for his size 2. i dont know why everyone thinks he is fast, because he always looks like he needs a rocket up his arse 3. for a big lad he is a bad header of the ball. 4. he is terible for making runs. 5. he does pointless back heels and flicks that rarely come off 6. and he has had many chances to score but has only scored 3 goals this season i hope he does well for you because he is still a city player and i dont think everton have an option to buy him but i carnt see him scoring more than 5 goals to be honest ps you would have been better of getting ched evans or benjani on loan Absolute nonsense !! Jo is a teriffic player but MH has not given him a chance in this side. Personally I think Jo going to Everton is a brilliant move because I believe Moyes will bring out the best of him, and he is a great player, holds the ball up (a problem we have at City because they are all midgets), gets where he needs to be etc. The kid needs Prem experience and confidence and Moyes will give him tht. I really hope he does good for you guys .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha ha there are numerous "urban myths" about that .. one of the popular ones is about the shirt borrowing ... But you will always find a blue telling you the Rags are not from Manchester. Old Trafford is not in Manchester - the suggestion is to call them Stretford United ha ha .. good place to have some banter is bluemoon ...

Blue 250 Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 From the you tube clips I notice that he's happy with penalties, that for a start is pretty handy in the team at the moment, can't be too much longer before we get another one (penalty). If he's brilliant for us, but City want him back....... <_< could we not give Vic some samba lessons and put some beads in his hair....and, well you know the rest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lad is class ... just needs experience in the PL and his confidence building. TBH I'm pretty gutted about him going but I do think Moyes will bring out the best in him. What happens after the loan is anyones guess ?? I'd like him back at City but i'm not the manager !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
