We're going to get absolutely embarrassed next Sunday. If we play any more defensive than we have been doing I can see the formation being 10-0-0.

Walks in. Walks out.

Everton 1 - 2 City

Looks absolutely amazing on those clips. YouTube makes everyone look good though, but excited about this one he looks after the ball like Busquets and his long range passing looks perfect.

So how does the share system work? Hypothetically speaking is Usmanov was doing this behind the scenes in order to eventually take majority ownership of this club, would the chairman decide that he could have those shares and they would be purchased from the many shareholders who have the other 51 or so %, or would each share holder have to personally agree to sell their shares to Usmanov? I don't understand business what so every but I know there is a couple of the lads on here that do, if you could help me out uderstand this.

This. No way should we be paying near what they bought him for when he hasn't played all season due to the "special one" wanting to throw his arrogance around.

Saw the same mentality before he signed when I was routing around their forums. Maybe someone sees something in him nobody else does.

Apparently helps us massively get around FFP. For me, Usmanov is backing the club indirectly, whilst Moshiri runs the show, then eventually he can take majority ownership of it. But that's my take. Be interesting to see our shirt sponsor too. Wouldn't be surprised if it was another branch of Usmanov's ventures, like his phone company, Megafon.

And someone already altered his wiki page under "known for" to "Co-Owner of Everton FC (kings of the dock)"

A company founded by Alishire Usmanov (30 percent shareholder in Arsenal; very close friends with Moshiri) is the new sponsor of Finch Farm (soon to be "USM Finch Farm"; USM being Usmanov's company name). Thus, possibly indirectly investing in EFC. Maybe... just maybe he might one day own a chunk of our club too.

Just audio on Everton tv. Not broadcast anywhere in the world. There's a good app called "Live Soccer TV" (if I'm allowed to say that on here - admin remove the comment if I can not and I apologise), especially for you Yanks, which tells you every single place worldwide almost any game is broadcasted.

Heavy price for a lower league player, but best of luck to him. Hope Walsh had unearthed a gem.

Also doesn't want to lose the astronomical fee for him!

Because he was injured. And they're in form. He's their best centre half, why do people seem so jealous of him?

Mental he's one of the best centre half's in the league there is no way he would come here.

He will play if our wingers don't start performing and Bolasi is injured, that's a fact.

Some good individual performances. Valencia changed the game for me, we didn't look like scoring until he came on.

On lightening form isnt he? Would be a great signing.

Finally he's done what he should have done 5 games ago.

A loan move would suit him. Get him out to one of the lower league sides for 6 months and play without the pressure of your own fans constantly on your back (and hope were not in the relegation battle with them!) Then come back pre season and either shine, or move on.

If he's back in training in February I doubt he would feature this season, unless it's the last few games he makes late appearances off the bench. Could be the end of him, which is a shame. I know he has split opinions but I think his mentality is such an important one for Everton right now. We lack that little bit of passion and bite which Besic has got, and I think he's the only one in the team with that.

It makes me happy that he's potentially going, then worries me we won't bring in a replacement, if Schneiderlin doesn't come in.

Is it one of the few FA ties televised, or not?
