  1. dissapointing performance but it'll do i guess!

     

    Dissapointed Moyes didn't make changes earlier but then if we'd scored a second goal he'd probably have made the changes. Macclesfield didn't create much but 1-0 just isn't enough in a cup tie and with 1 in the first half we shouldn have finished it in the second half.

     

    Macclesfield played ok but we just weren't creating anything.

     

    Just a thought on the Fellaini yellow card situation, surely we'd rather have him suspended for the Hull game than any of the other 3 games? Could it not have been an idea to bring him on and get him booked now? Otherwise he should have done it last week!

     

    ideally he should have gotten his 10th against middlesborough.

     

     

    we clearly missed him today tho ..

  2. very good goal by osman, what a strike.

     

    we're not very convincing in the midfield tho ..could be due to the pitch but mainly i think someone should just tell pienaar to stop hitting the ball with the back of his heel when there's nothing to gain from it.

     

    thought baines played really well first half.

  3. also in vinnie jones repertoire :

     

    The Condemned .. Jack Conrad is awaiting the death penalty in a corrupt Central American prison. He is "purchased" by a wealthy television producer and taken to a desolate island where he must fight to the death against nine other condemned killers from all corners of the world, with freedom going to the sole survivor. :lol:

     

    also in the movie Stone Cold Steve Austin!

     

     

     

    this movie scores very good on the "unintentional comedy scale" .. laughed all the way through. :D .

  4. For me....

     

    Arteta - £25m

    Lescott - £17m

     

    They may seem big numbers but who do you replace them with that will guarantee their level of performance in the premiership? You have to spend big, big bucks to find an equivilant.

     

     

    :huh:

     

    if that's your price then Fellaini was the bargain of the century...

     

    i'd say 15m arteta , 8m lescott.

  5. american football postseason :

     

    AFC : indy - SD , Baltimore - Miami

    byes : tennessee, pittsburgh

     

    NFC : atl - arizona , philly - minnesota

    byes : giants, carolina

     

     

    my bets would be indy to win AFC

    and philly to make in the NFC

     

    indy to win the superbowl. (wouldn't like it if they won but can't see anyone stopping them).

     

     

    btw completely rediculous that teams like san diego and arizona are in the postseason while a perfectly capable 11-5 pats team are out.

    arizona and san diego will both get destroyed in the first round.

  6. seeing what arteta can do in that position, we should be happy not to have signed Moutinho in august .. arteta would have been a waste of talent on either flank.

    i do wonder if for 15m fellaini was the best buy out there, but it does seem that since his arrival everton has shot up the standings. seems like mo fits in perfectly with this team with his size and position play... arteta now distributing and getting the ball back ..

    what originally seemed like a bit a of disappointing transfer period now turns out to be a great turn of events..

  7. he started out in belgian league.. watched him play for a season, he's the reason an inferior team won the cup in belgium the year he played there.

    he's an excellent player, very fast, very dangerous in front of the goal.. can play multiple positions (striker, winger either side).

    imo a better player than Saha.

    would be great for everton if they got him.

  8. voted howard.. everybody played well , as in noone really stood out.

    great safe in first half... solid effort and always ready when he needed to be.

     

    gosling played well but really should have scored a goal .. especially his last chance was more difficult to miss than score.

     

     

     

    special mention for the referee : worst perfomance of the year so far.

  9. i'm from belgium.. after everton got fellaini, i started watching every everton match. (they show every single one of em now that big mo is on the team).

    after a while found myself nog just cheering fellaini on, but hoping everton would win.

    became really familiar with the team and genuinly hope everton is back in europe next year.

     

    been reading this forum since fellaini joined the club, became a member this week (mainly because it's exam period and i'm bored out of my mind behind my books and i need some distractions :) ).

  10. I had a phase where I wanted to move to the USA and try to become a basketball player, I saw the houses on the MTV Cribs and saw just how much they get paid. I mean, its worse than football. Those guys dont have to run as much and occassionaly jump for a hoop. I'd love to see the pay salary for players like Kobe Bryant. Woulden't mind his wages for a week.

     

    (:

     

     

    i'm currently going through a phase where i want to become a baseball player :).

    look at the guy who just got all that money :

    i mean, anything that fat guy can do, how can i not be better at it ? :)

     

    and he's not the only "athlete" in that sport that looks as overweight as he does.
