Ian Posted October 24, 2005 Report Share Posted October 24, 2005 i thought they played really well of each other and i think its the best option....till robbie comes in beattie thinks so aswell...... http://www.evertonfc.com/news/index.php?page_id=7852 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FairWooney Posted October 24, 2005 Report Share Posted October 24, 2005 i'm still not too sure. i think their too similar and someone "like" bent would be more suited. was mcfadden on the bench on sunday as I didn't see him?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted October 24, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2005 yeah he was on the bench, well he came out at half time so i presume he was! ive gone off bent, when he first came altough he is never gonna be a top quality striker his work rate was never in question. He now looks to get in sulks if it doesnt go his way and looks half arsed most of the time now. Maybe thats why hes had the amount of clubs he has? i think if charlton do come in for him ( i heard a 1 million offer in jan) then i think we whould sell him, gives us an extra mill to prize away RK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure. Would prefer (and need) a poacher - and Nugent would be ideal as he seems to pop up when not expected - just like the good poachers in the game - owen, cole etc. Having said that, we also need somebody who can accurately shoot from the edge of the box - Davies had a good effort against Chelski but that was about it from outside of the box - it never really troubled Cech though! We just need someone who is going to sit in the opposition defense and cause them trouble. we seem to get 'sucked' into our own defence a lot and we hardly ever leave anyone upfront to cause problems on the counter attack (although BT and arteta made chelski shake yesterday as they countered very, very well).

Guest fozzie22 Posted October 24, 2005 Report Share Posted October 24, 2005 Its typical of the lack of ambition the board shows that we couldnt even go for cole..ok he would have been a one season wonder but the man knows where the net is. Something we have been lacking in this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have said for a while that WE should have gone for Cole - as Fozzie says - one season wonder - but look what he is doing for Shity city. Oh well.... Lets hope that BT starts to find the net - lets hope that he can stay on the pitch - give him a chance - I reckon 5 full starts on the 'trot' to see what he is really made of...If he hasn't scored after 5 starts, then I will accept that he is total poo!

rowlo-efc Posted October 24, 2005 Report Share Posted October 24, 2005 Teddy Sheringham, Nigel Martyn, Andrew Cole, Zola .. the list is endless <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ravanelli Ginola Why not buy an 'out-of-date' good striker - sometimes they come good because they think that they have a 'new lease on life' Andy Cole - career was all but dwindling and then City snapped him up...I can remember thinking that it was a bad move by Pearce - But i have already been proven wrong. What about Vaughan - he has to 'emerge' at some point. (I know that he is injured until November) - but he looked alright against Palace last year and he looks alright for the reserves - is it time to throw him into the fray and see whether he is a man or a mouse!?

I can't wait to see Vaughan back in the squad, he's looked very promising every time i've seen him and there's a lot of hype surrounding him at Everton and we all remember the last time that happened!

thebluenose Posted October 24, 2005 Report Share Posted October 24, 2005 actually. we shouldnt give him too many games. let him progress and mature slowly and drip feed him in to the first team. because the last thing we need is another rooney.

If he is good enough though - if he has the arrogance needed to face top defenders, then we should give him his chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djlduffy Posted October 24, 2005 Report Share Posted October 24, 2005 Beattie and Ferguson for me with Bent replacing Fergie after 60 mins. That way Bent can run round like twit for 30 mins without his head dropping like it has been of late. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jared Posted October 26, 2005 Report Share Posted October 26, 2005 (edited) I think Bent has more attacking flair and pace to get forward, even he doesn't hold the ball well at times. And he has an eye on goal too more than Big Dunc. Big Dunc's pace is getting undone by his older age, except for winning headers and some motivation.

EFC fan in oz Posted October 26, 2005 Report Share Posted October 26, 2005 Think it should be Beattie and Dunc at the moment as i don't see Bent do alot than run around the field closing down players or missing whenever he has an opportunity to score. My preffered partnership at the end of the season if we don't sign any new forwards would be Beattie and Vaughn though . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
