If i'm going to be honest i have never heard of him, any good? What type of player is he, a defensive full back, attaacking,? Whats his best side, left or right etc etc?
-
So do you think we will just sell Rodwell in the summer?
I don't think Rodwell will go to be honest, i just have a feeling .. But i do think the likes of Heitinga, Bily, Yak, Yobo may go ... How much would we bring in for them? Plus our usual 1m budget, and also if Rooney wins league and champs league do we still get some money for him? Not sure... But all this adds up!
Regarding targets, i don't know .. We know the positions we need to fill, but personnel i just don't know.
I would love to see Donovan back here .. And although an ex kopite i wouldnt mind taking a gamble on Bellamy

Ooops!

I'm with the NO brigade on this one i'm afraid.
For 10 mil based on the fact that this 10 mil can only be placed by selling 1-3 players, i'm also in the NO brigade ...
I would look for someone else if we had 10 mil anyway

Leighton Baines is now trending on twitter.
Whats being said mate?
-
Excellent post Matt i did not realise that.. Impressive
-
Yep, Spurs have sung it for years.
I too would like to believe it's an Everton song adopted by Celtic.
Yeah i heard spurs singing it, they obv must change some words i dunno though

Fair enough mate. I dont agree though. Arteta has played the majority of his best football cutting in from the wings and Ossie can be just as good in the middle in my opinion and has proven that nearly every time he has played in the centre. Come to think of it, cant remember many games where Ossie was in the middle and didnt get the MOTM award.
I dont think Artetas wage has anything to do with his position, it entitles him to play on the pitch if he is playing well enough. If that means the wing where most of his best performances have come from so be it.
Yeah ossie has been brilliant in the middle, so it should not be changed .. Well tomorrow i presume Osman will be in the middle again, against a stifling midfield, so lets see if he can still play as good as he has done the past few weeks, i sense it will be a hard game tomorrow.
-
Yeah Ossie for me, splendid performance
-
Stevie "Passed It" Gerrard is out for the season
-
I gave my vote to Ossie, because as he has done in the last couple of games, worked so hard, on this occasion got a goal, and as most have mentioend apart from his misses, was involved in most of our good attacking play.
Gueye looked really good when he came on, there was apart were he took about 4 of there players on then come back inside to do them again haha class, hope he gets more game time, along with Vellios as i have a strange feeling, he will do well with us.
-
Forgive me for asking this question, but is this worth getting excited about?
-
We have for the past 4 - 5 years been a better team than Villa but for some reason they get the plaudits, so i officially dislike them.
No bias in my prediction ut i think a clean sheet is on the cards, Distins "Recharged his batteries" and jags and bainsey got 90 mins for england so hopefully there on a high... If we shut them out, we have a goal or two in us so my prediction is
2-0
If ossie plays he will be key to our attacking midfield play, the guys coming into good form of late.
-
Madrid looking at him now and were nowhere near the summer , i fear the worst when this transfer window opens
-
Rodwell was once again totally anonymous, why people think we shouldn't sell him for £20m I'll never know, he was playing against a mickey mouse midfield (3 against 2 as well) and yet his contribution was basically zero. If anyone bid £20m for him I'd snatch their hands off.
I agree, and constantly have this conversation every game with the lads at the ground ...
Ossie for me, excellent footwork .. There was a player, a decent player, who said a while back they thought osman would go on for england, because back at youth level his close control, even then was "world class" i cant remember who said it, ut he demonstrated it the other day .. Just needs to find his shooting boots and stop hitting crap shots over the bar haha!
-
Yeah theres something not right at the moment, i havent seen him play well, i mean a full game for as long as i can remember, still all the media love linking him with the big boys.. I personally would sell .. Imagine we dont, he turns out shite, well then we will look back at it and say oppurtunity missed .. Flipside he turns out world class, well unfortunately he wont stay with us forever so why not take the money when it comes along, he is knowhere near a first 11 starter when we have a full squad to choose from.
I just feel (even though he is young) his awareness and lack of positional play, costs us in attacks against us sometime, i see him 5 yards away from the ball and think, right thats jacks, but for some reason he doesnt react and the opposition pick it up... He can play some nice balls, but i think he plays some really bad balls too ..
Sorry for knocking him so much, because he is still young .. But personally i would sell in the summer.

It's not been confirmed that they have been turned down as far as I know.
This is the person that was used by the BBC: http://www.square1consulting.co.uk/our-people/david-bick
He says that the group interested in Everton had "deep pockets" so they are either rich or they play with themselves when talking to you.
that made me laugh man!! haha great stuff

Do you mean a link to the solar panel story, there isn't one!!
In the words of Marvin Gaye - I heard it through the grapevine
Haha!
Did those grapevines have solar panels themselves?

I see what your trying to get at Matt .. Liverpool tried that formation out not so long ago with good effect v Chelsea
But i think its all good saying that formation looks strong, but its whether the players can cope in those positions.
i would feel nervous if teams like chelsea hit us on the break, for instance down the right side, there wouldnt be the cool head of neville to stay in position, coleman, would be upfield and it would leave someone like malouda one on one with johnny, and he aint blesed with pace, players like torres and drogba would occupy the other centre halves, then before you know it someone like lampard comes in fairly unoccupied .. Thats a very brief example, but a formation like that for me, with our team, can only work in so many games.
Maybe i am talking shit, and blind sighted to a new formation, please say if you think that.
I still belive 451 to be the best formation while cahills around anyway also.

Never has a bad word to say that lad ... How come its new news on that site? I'm sure i read that article either monday or last week sometime?
-
Altho Heitinga did back out of a challenge for Bpools second, did you see the glee on the ex redshites faces when they pointed that out!
I think based on that, jags will start v Bolton, i really do think that will happen.
I think maybe Moyes is just looking for an oppurtunity to get the guy back on the field, he has came on as subs in both are last 2 games, god knows why he came on at right back v arsenal the other week though.
-
That'l be our old friend Joe King then! Ffs i hope this was taken as a 'no win no fee' case!!
Haha!
We don't associate with Rooneys anymore so Paul Rooney solicitors no win no fee is out of the question!

2 Carling cup games, what premier league experience was that Ian.
I Just think he means what they do behind the scenes Bill at premier league clubs.
In regards to this, he is Slovakias Number 1 in the last world cup, if he doesnt play at all, he won't even be thought of in future tournaments for them... I thought it was strange getting an internation number 1, seeing as though Moyes hardly ever drops Howard.
