http://www.evertonfc.com/news/archive/pien...-completed.html

hibbo is at the back, far right

fans favorite, andy van der meyde likes a drink or three

there would be a sponsor name, but maybe it would have a normal name too.

ashburton grove/emirates?

im with zed 100%. Cars is a valuable member of our team, one of our most consistent performers!

and looks like we got another member with a 451 in negative attitude!

i dont understand how anyone can see victor being a bigger attacking threat than cahill.

we were getting about £30m werent we?

taking away some of what we spent last season, and the increase in top players wages, id say porbably about £10m

against preston silva was pretty average, against a lower league team, as was beattie and anichebe.

i'll be disappointed if any of that 3 start against wigan

reading through all the topics lately (oh, im optimistic at the mo, just so people know) i think that the negativity stands out more because people have more points for being negative, where us optimists cant go in there with a long list of why were optimistic

I'd say Richardson for 5.5m! he's played left back, left wing, is young, is english, great pace. We should get real about the value of players, moaning about it wont make them any cheaper.

Baines for £6m, seriously whats he done. We cant afford that no matter how much potential.

Nugent went for £6m Present/Future england international which now looks cheap.

you would pay 5.5 for a player with not many games under his belt, but then ask what has baines done? well hes hardly gunna win medals at wigan for anyone to be able to answer that! but if richardson is worth 5.5 then baines is worth 6 imo, he has more first team experience and also bring the equivalent qualities that richardson brings.

crust - fair comment mate.

fair enough mate.

but you have just said yourself, 442 to stop the gunners playing. sounds negative when we have to stop others from playing.

id like manny here, but we could only use manny in a 451 imo, if we played 442 with just manny and cahill in the middle we wouldnt be strong enough for me.

we have no one with a left foot in our midfield. you need balance in a team. we miss the balance from our midfield. i honestly believe if we just got a good left winger it would totally change how we can attack teams.

with me defending 451 im not against 442, im just one who sees 451 as being our biggest strength. i dont understand when people complaion that we play negative boring football. i really enjoyed watchin the blues last year, and i thought we played a lot of good football.

i was convinced i seen my grandad when i was about a kid, i woke up and he was sat on the end of my bed with a poster in his hand (i think it was barry horne or graham stuart, but i had a pile of posters that were ready to go on my wall) he just told me to go back to sleep, so i did what i was told. the next morning one of the posters had moved to where i saw him. over breakfast my dad when white as a sheet when i come out with "saw grandad last nite"

and my house is built on an old hospital site, my neighbour is a really old lady, used to be a nurse at the hospital, she thinks our area of the estate was somewhere about the morg.

anyway, me, my sister, my dad and my brother in law all think we seen a boy on the landing within a few years of the house being built. my grandma used to tell us he was probably just looking for someone to play with, creeped me out big time when she would say that.

i like this thread!

full of happy blues!

get your head out of lickers arse and see the light mate !! 4-5-1 = relegation dogfight , 4-4-2 = enternaining football = goals = points = back in europe next season !!!!

 

When i started this thread all i asked was which position needs strengthening the most , not who plays best where or what formation suits us best !

 

Simple question - requiring simple answer

we used 451 for most of last season, its got us in europe twice!

chelsea won two league titles with 451, they switch to 442.

our best option going forward is AJ with cahill in support, he can only play to his best in a 451.

i'll be sticking with bills comment about you talking shit!

formations dont mean your in a dog fight!

you need to take mroe notice of the world of football around you, playing to your strengths is the key!

back on topic, a left footed winger

You can read whatever you want into that or any other news story Mark I'v explained where I'm comming from repeatedly. At this moment in time I can honestly say I wouldnt want my manager behaving in any other way than Moyes is now.

 

1. We have a squad now that has qualified for Europe 2 out of 3 seasons

2. We are not being mugged by seccond rate players, greedy agents or piss taking clubs.

3. This "dithering Davey" attitude is what has brought stability & progress to my club for the first time since I was a small child.

 

Long may it continue I say!

Liam,

you may have just saved my life!

glad there is still some people here with a sense of realism!

with the greatest respect! BOLLOCKS!

fuck me!

after reading this thread i just wanna curl up and die!

been a rubbish week in work and you miserable bastards have totally made me worse!

will someone do me a favour and kick this bucket from under my feet!

i was getting all excited by the friendly on saturday, looking forward to getting back on a terrace, now i just wanna fucking die!

thanks TT

it's a combination of things i think:

 

1. Kenwright clearly does not have the resources to run a prem club.

 

2. Moyes and his reluctence to persue the foreign market (better bargins to be had imo)

 

3. Lack of communication with fans, which just winds everyone up, then people start wanting to sack the board, manager, etc. If they were a bit more honest then the fans would understand more, but were always so cagey with everything.

 

4. Yes, some of the other teams do seem to spending stupid money this summer, but that seems to happen in this country, hence the reason wenger shops abroad.

Im probably wrong, but im gunna have to question some of these mate.

1. we know kenwright doesnt have the resources to run the club financially or general business like. thats why he brought bully in to run the club.

2. there is a bigger risk with bringing in foreign players, also why they are cheaper imo. a proven player in a proven league will command a premium.

3. i take total issue with this one! why do we have to know everything that goes on? being a bit more honest? wtf! they are a business! we are just customers! the more they tell us about whats going on, the more they tell their competitors! we have no right to know whats goin on! and the people who want to start sacking people because of this really need a better understanding of business!

4. 100% agree with this one, and the time and money invested by wenger on his scouting system! he has had his contacts for a lot longer than moyes remember! it didnt happen over night

the same thing we hear every summer.

i'll reserve my judgement for next may

ive got nothin yet mate, and unfortunately, no idea when we'll get them. but if i was to guess id say the end of the month. im gunna predict the 23rd

give the lad credit for defending himself!

well done Jamie

i believe interpol said our techniques in tracking previously questioned terrorists were in the dark ages!

i find that almost as worrying as the threat itself!

my biggest priority is a left footed midfield player. ideally a winger/wide player.

my second is a left back.

i honestly believe we can afford to bring in baines and richardson.

im not bothered about a striker, i want to see Vaughan pushed on a bit this season, vic beats and faddy can cover when he needs to be rested. and in honesty im a 451 man, so we have enough cover for me

edit

ive heard good things about nzogbia. but ive never seen him play so i cant really comment

What kind of % does anyone think watch at home or down the pub,when they could

in fact make the match?.......surely a pub and a couple of pints and saving about

£20 must come into it.

not for me really, im a season ticket holder.

i go the match, between us parking costs £1 each (or nothin if we park in the street sometimes)

i get a pint when i get in, and maybe a sausage roll. call that £5.

programme £3.

then off to the pub after the game with the lads. add a quid or two for fuel.

call it £10 i spend before i get to the pub (probably about 6 o'clock)

season ticket works out about £25 a match.

£35.

then a game in the pub.

if its a 3 o'clock KO then maybe get there for 2ish.

thats about 4 hours earlier than if i go to the game.

maybe 3/4 pints an hour at £2.50 (rounded up a few pence)

at least £25. throw in some pub food (i got to eat, im a hungry lad!) maybe £6

i'll still have someone pick me up a programme £3.

£34

im a sad twat, cant believe i just did that!

if we do then it'll be a great deal imo
