Agreed.

I'm in the For camp. I think he'd be a great addition, he looks like he's got the strength and presence we need in our midfield. Plus, as said above, it'd be great to see him rip through the red shite: )

Anyone see this interview, anything interesting said?? Any link??

I can't see this one happening at all. I'm sorry, but Darren Bent won't be putting on an everton shirt next season. As for AJ, I am for selling him. IMHO, he's too small, always gets pushed to easily of the ball, and although he does work hard, too many times have I seen in him situations on goal, and just been brushed of the ball with the flimsiest of touches. A good player, but lacking in strength.

well i haven't heard anything about signing manny before this supposed deadline. something's gotta be made of dust, either the prospect of signing or the 'deadline' <_<

I have pirlo, messi, zidane, ronaldo, ronaldinho. and komol(who's quality) in my PES team :0)

I had actually forgotten about his deadline... I guess we'll see tomorrow then if there's any truth in it.

I'm not sure, not until I hear it form the horses mouth. And I'm not so sure that this is a reliable source. <_<

I thoroughly agree with this. it makes me a bit nervous. Although, I trust moyesy to makes the right decisions with the "relatively" small budget we have (we must remember, in terms of transfers, that managers are prob waiting for the euro's to finish). However, when i see that Man City are going for £20mil players (Eg: Jo), and we're debating about 5milioners, it still worries me slightly. Forget about the top4, if we can't compete with the teams around us like city,b'burn,villa etc, then we have no chance. I know we're not a rich club but we have a good base, which we need to add to (not replace). When i hear us linked with the likes of Fernandes (on a permanent), moutinho, etc, this is the way to go, (even if it costs a little bit). We must remember, we've set the standard outside the top four. We CANNOT let ourselves slip behind the pack. Therefore, we need to keep our quality (eg. Arteta) and add extra QUALITY (note: quality with a capital Q.U.A.L.I.T.Y). Sorry to say it but expectations are higher than ever now.

I'll be extremely dissapionted if we lose Arteta. It's players like these that meant we finished where have done over the last seasons. When Arteta has been missing, how many times have we heard that we've missed his creativity. We need him and his flair in the team. To say we're going to lose him and replace him with someone like Bentley, (or even the likes of Sidwell, Lewandowski et al) for me is completely illogical, and certainly not a continuation of the progress we have made.
