sounds about right to me, if not a bit too optimistic. pienaar 10-12 mil is dreaming though. 7.5 mil tops

no you may not xD

good read ta louis

Rather than heckling already, why don't we all just wait and see how he plays, instead of calling him a 'khunt'.

Billy billy billy~! Finally some quality skill in the side. Can't wait for Billy and Arteta to play together.

its CaptainFerguson's fault *points the finger*

Must be all that talk about testicles in this thread.

grrrr.... cmon who's gonna try to have at cahill~! grrrrr *prepares baseball bat*

Meah whatever his motives for joining for Everton, I'm not complaining. Probably been playing the best out of the whole team so far this season.

Is he the new ronaldo in rl or just fm? O_o

I rate him as a player. Did super-good in the WC and is the current captain of aus. Just think his wage demands are stupid though. Rumour is that Veerbek (aus national coach) is getting peeved at his indecisiveness. Probably why he's finally decided to fold and find a club.

sigh this is ridiculous. why does sbs 2 only show it over in the eastern states. perth ppl wanna watch it too

I don't think clubs will have to 'offload' as per say. It'll probably be a system similar to La Liga or Seria A, where clubs have to register a player list during or just after the transfer window. Any player not registered before hand cannot be fielded. Exceptions are made for players coming from the clubs youth setup though, i think xD

I'm pretty sure ill get slammed for this, but ill say it anyway. I reckon having Nev out will be abit of bonus. No more long balls to players being marked by 2-3 defenders. Plus might give the rest of the team a kick up the backside. Don't get me wrong, love him as captain, just always thought his play held the team back abit.

Well at least this thread is going on better than I thought it would *cries*

Yobo will get it, probably cause he's been in the squad for ages. I'd like to see Cahill get the band though. He may not have apparent leadership skills, but he works his socks off whenever he puts on the Everton jersey.

Fair point, I shoulda got the ball rolling. Alright, as mentioned above, Rodders has probably been the main shining light so far. That much maturity from a player that age is great to see. We've managed to sign some quality players. Heit and billy may not yet be world-class but theyre at least an improvement on what we got. Well thats all i got O_o Cmon this is meant to be a positive thread~! THINK POSITIVE PPL!?

I'm getting tired of every other thread saying either what the club is doing wrong, or which player(s) are the cause of our poor form. There's a crapload of positives to be taken from our first 4 games, even if you have to dig abit deeper to find em xD So for the sake of discussion lets point out the good stuff and see how we can build on it. Remember if you hit rock bottom, the only way is back up~!

If this happens, ill cut of my left testicle, gladly.

Distin. He did look abit shaky after his accidental deflection, but he still played better than the rest of the team in the second half.

Firstly, you can't expect Moyes to chuck in new signings from the start, especially if they haven't had time to gel with the squad. Distin was a special case (we had no other decent defenders). That said, the subs chosen by Moyes are what screwed us over in the end. I really would've liked to see what Billy could have done. Yak's just not there yet in terms of fitness and match practise in my mind.

If the naysayers of the world were always right, we'd all be screwed. 4 matches into a season doesn't mean we're relegated already. Give the team 10 matches and then see where we are in the table. I won't be surprised if we're mid table at least by then, if not higher.

Never. Even with the transfer fee, I doubt we could find anyone with the skills and experience to replace Arteta.

FM isn't exactly realistic you know :s

At least the article says its not too serious. We've waited this long, whats a few more weeks. xD
