Matt

to be honest, thought they were before this signing

virtual memory?! how old is the computer mate?

thats probably considering the fact that a corpse could've put away the chances he had...

no, no he isnt

hes 21, Barkleys decision can be suspect at times too...

i give him 2 more years, but otherwise completely agree...

Shaken up, few scratches from broken glass but she's ok....

think he's referring to the days getting darker sooner..

can someone remind me why we sold him on the first place? Stupid move....

fair enough. Still hard to compare seeing as Felli has hardly played there....

Drunk drivers. Mrs Matt hit side on, thankfully she's ok. Car less so. If Im grumpy tonight, apologies in advance. Took me an hour to get to her, stressing the whole time. Not in the best of moods!

thats just crazy...I loved Carsley and don't think we ever replaced him properly, but the only way Carsley was better was mentally. You can't even compare them, completely different players. Even if you could compare, Cars isnt anywhere near the same level, attitude the exception...

i'll admit, a little sex wee escaped then....

he can fuck the fuckety fuck off....

Im not convinced he wouldve put them away in his current form either. Cant believe im saying this, but would rather Vic started

http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/12691/8896590/transfer-news-everton-boss-roberto-martinez-says-leighton-baines-has-not-asked-to-leave No transfer request, no "please let me leave"... Quel suprise

think hes a cracking player, but to be honest Ive only seen him play a handful of times.

fair enough, though I still maintain the good football wasnt an exception. predictable, negative, awful subs, sitting back - yes, it happened a lot, which is why im not sad to see him go. Boring, 50/50. Good to see you recognize mate, thats not been apparent in your previous posts. Maybe you could take Avins "the eternal optimist" on, seems fitting now

dont understand why so few people see the value of Baines... If they want him, 15m + Büttner. Otherwise, sod off.

that made me and at the same time

pretty much what I was getting at Though I wouldve said it was more than 10 games a season. Its not new, but we're more patient now. some people seem to think it never existed before Martinez... I know, Ive admitted Im getting overly frustrated and impatient. Like I said, the only changes Ive seen are fewer hoofs (theres still a fair few, which is ok in my opinion), more caution, and more passing at the back. I wanted more passing in the middle of the park, but I guess thats why everyones crying out for a new CM

Yes.

I am amazed at how people seem to think this passing style is completely new, and that all Moyes ever did was get the back to launch it up front. We did play attacking, passing football under Moyes, probably as much as, if not more than, hoofball. Remember Mirallas goal end of last season (even the BBC recognized it, was up for goal of the month)? Remember being compared to Barcelona? Remember the 1st half of last season where we dominated teams with fluid attacking football? Remember Ossies goal against Larissa? Im cherry picking here but I could list hundreds of examples. Hoofball came about because the players / management ran out of ideas against teams and resorted to punting it long (which has more chance of scoring than passing back and forth between the back 2) in the hopes it would get a break. It wasnt pretty, but sometimes it is necessary. The only difference Ive seen is more caution and patience in build up and the obvious, that Barkley is going to be the heartbeat of the team and is the creative, driving force weve missed since Arteta. Dont get me wrong, I still think RM is the man for the job but I refuse to acknowledge this is all new, because it just isnt.

maybe theyve said nothing because the whole thing is a media show triggered by interested parties and theyre just being professional and keeping their mouth shut.

what the fuck where the authorities doing during this time?!
