Sorry don't agree, you need to look more at the whole picture, the way Everton player, and Beattie's role upfront. Just becasue he is a striker, he is not just in the team to score goal.

 

Moyes has bought him to get his fair share of goals - and as our top scorer you have to say his doing this.

 

There are striker out there whos main purpose is to score goals, and can pretty much do little else all game. Beattie is not that type of striker he holds the ball up well and make chances for surporting midfeilders, so to this end he will get less of the chances as he is involved in other parts of the play. You can't be in two places at once.

 

So saying he is paid to score goals is slightly naive.

Agree with Rob here plus he has score 40% of our goals this season which isnt bad its not as if we as team are scoring a shed load of goals, tho beattie has contributed to this with some misses

Im in two minds on this one as agree with parts of both arguements.

I would say yes to this tho, look at the teams likely to play against they are not of high quality in the first stages as we would be seeded? so rest the likes of Cahill etc, but how many of our players will get a decent run in the world cup anyway? Cahill? thats about it.

You need to weigh up what is more benificial to the players semi - competitive football at the start or friendlies against Chester and Southport?

Then if we get through upon last seasons experience we should fair much better and would we be seeded given we had europe last year?

Then their is the player aspect would we be able to attract better players in with European football on offer?

It is all ifs and buts but it is a gamble I would take.

Good news must be better than Chris Woods!

Emre and Paker can mix it up Rob, so disagree with what you are saying about not liking to play the likes of Everton. Given they like to think they play attractive football but I think that they can battle aswell.

We need to test their centre halves as they are rubbish.

As for Buffon - really can't see the point of bringing in a keeper with no Prem experience. Not that he would come.

No prem experience? he is one of the best GK in world top 3 IMO how he aint getting a game a Juve is laughable.

Poom would be a good signing should have signed him in the summer.

Agree and disagree, he is doing what bent done last season and perhaps more in his work rate and you cant faulter him for that he gives 110% each game, which is what we want.

Our expectation levels are higher given he is our record signing and he does miss some of the easier chances that come his way, I dont think we can argue with that. He shows great link up play and the midfielders score more from him (how many assists has he got this season) but he also breaks up play and pressurises opposition defenders must be frightening to see his man boobs coming towards you at full spead.

Current strike Ratio will provide 15 goals a season which IMO is good considering:

He is playing alone upfront

When was the last time one of our strikers score 10+ in a season

The work rate he puts in for the team

We just need a more clinical striker like the ones mentions above to play along side him and then we will see the benifits of Beattie, I for one am happy we signed him and am glad he is proving his critics wrong and im sure before he ends his Everton career Fozzie will say he is good aswell!

Cant see where on switch Ireland? as stated its a car park at the bets of times and always getting changed.

Are they not doing a fly over there or something? where would they build it at the fields at the top end of the Island?

Jesus I could see my old house from that picture memory lane hey.

De Ja Vu tho for all of us i think.

BK you only sing when your winning

Bad time to play them big wow they have won two on the run, who is top the form charts and only team unbeaten in the league 06?

Yobo back aswell he may play him in Nevilles role with farrari at right back? Bit to soon for Carsley I think as its a big match and their midfield is solid with Parker and Emre playing their.

Happy with 1 - 0 to us and a Beattie 30 yarder just for ZED

Dunno but he has permission to sign someone

imagine he pulled Cudchini out the bag haha

difference leeds spen money..now granted they nearly went tits up,but they chased the dream

 

BK chases his own arse

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Totally Agree totally different from Leeds

I agree his work rate is second to none and his recent performances have made him one of our players of the season.

Defo need an AJ along side him or hopefully a Keane or Defoe.

Still needs to work on his finishing, he has missed a couple of easy ones this season. Wouldnt mind a couple of those 30 yarders he is famous for either ZED especially in front of the Kop!

what would be the average age of the gk and the two centre halves then!

I can hear the chants now

ENGLANDS NO 1

Set our targets higher that Nugent if we can keep our current form going and qual for Europe

Cant see a footballer being allowed to play with Aids, what if he gets a cut on the pitch etc?

Watch the game against Chelski and the fans where great still stinging at the end. You can buy a team but you cant buy fans like that!

Someone said to me today that he has handed in a transfer request? apparently he want to play for Chalton and has issued a come and get me plea to Curbishley. This he heard the scorers for the goals against liverpool where Young and Bent!

Sorry Sol!

I agree with Droobie though would say just one midfielfer would do

Watching the Chelsae game with the missus ;ast night and she took the piss out of his man boobs as well!!

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

She is only Jealious!

Could not agree more

I for one think Moyes has moved us forward no end, this is the best squad we have had in years, we are better off financially than when the Prem started, the average age of the team is the lowest in years.

I dont agree with people who slag off Moyes would you prefer to go back to the days of Walter Smith?.

Given he didnt improve the squad in Jan, but he could have done what previous managers have done and brought in Backoftheecho, Amo etc and would we be better off??

Ill give it a miss aswell:

I've already pm'd Easterhousegirl 

Things have moved on regarding the phone and I'm getting one next week, but thanks very much for the offer licker

How many times did she ask you if you where gay then haha

It was a good strikers goal IMO should have been in their yes but Alonso goal was also very good and better tho I hate to say it. Beattie cant hit a shot on target from 2 yards as he displayed last night never mind 60 yards.

I agree pitch is set for Barca, they got is re surfaced last year and parker broke his ankle on it first game, and it defo contributed to our poor performance last nite.
