jamiemaher85 Posted July 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 I like him, he's got pace for one thing. Still would have prefered Naughton, but Hutton is a definate step in the right direction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete0 Posted July 26, 2009 Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 would rather sell lescott and offer an extra 10 mil and ask for corluka instead cos he could cover at cb till jags is back and then we would have 1 of the best right backs in the prem which alot of the tony hibbert bashers have been crying out for years.

MB1919 Posted July 26, 2009 Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 Hutton is a quality player and would be a tremendous signing. He is not injury prone and has only had one serious injury (a broken foot), which meant he missed most of last season. He had a great season in 2006-7 playing for Rangers and has played many brilliant games for Scotland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EFC-Paul Posted July 26, 2009 Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 (edited) Hutton is a quality player and would be a tremendous signing. He is not injury prone and has only had one serious injury (a broken foot), which meant he missed most of last season. He had a great season in 2006-7 playing for Rangers and has played many brilliant games for Scotland. I agree he's a very good player in my book and would add much needed pace down the right and give us that extra outlet we have so badly needed. As MB11919 has stated he's not an injury prone player he has just had a legnthy lay off with a foot injury and i would much rather have Hutton then Naughton who i think people are getting very carried away with he's a young and untested player at Premiership level and could well be a flop regardless of how well Sheff Utd fans rate him. I would much rather have Hutton who is proven at this level and on his day can cause any defence problems with his pace and in all honesty i think Spurs and old squid face are mad for "if true" thinking of letting him go.

Adamp1878 Posted July 26, 2009 Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 Watching Alan Hutton now as he is lining up for Spurs against Celtic and getting jeered by the opposition every time he receives the ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ustoffee22 Posted July 26, 2009 Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 I'd go for Hutton he's an upgrade from hibbert and he would give us more depth and quality on the backline which we desperatly need Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scouse Posted July 26, 2009 Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 If he stays fit he would be a definate improvement to our squad, he is young, pacey and technically a very good right back, not sure about spuds letting him go though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldnt mind Hutton but you cant say he is proven at this level because he has only played 8 times in the Prem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EFC-Paul Posted July 26, 2009 Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 (edited) I wouldnt mind Hutton but you cant say he is proven at this level because he has only played 8 times in the Prem He's played 19 games for Spurs not 8 and thats 19 more games then Naughton at this level so to a degree i would say he's proven at this level and also has 21 European games under his belt for Rangers so he has played half a season of football whilst with Spurs and each time i have watched him play he has shown he is more then capable in this league hence proven at this level. My point being he's plyed his trade in the Premiership where as other names touted have not and is a far more risk free buy.

My point being he's plyed his trade in the Premiership where as other names touted have not and is a far more risk free buy. Actually its 22 games , 8 last season and 14 the season before but either way he is hardly proven in the Prem. I agree he has more experience than Naughton but I said that he was unproven anyway As I said I do think he is worth a punt but he can hardly be described ask risk free buy given his lack of experience in the Prem and his injury record over the past 2 seasons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonKey Posted July 26, 2009 Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 Good footballer. Fast, attack minded and definitely an upgrade. Really came to prominence in the Euro qualifiers, showing up some big names (especially in the France game). I would be really pleased if this came off!!

Wirral Wizard Posted July 26, 2009 Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 Anyone who thinks that right-back isn't a priority needs to watch the FA Cup final again. It really annoys me that Hibbert has been given such a bad press by some fans based on his Cup Final performance. He was booked very early on - a ridiculous decision by the referee - and he was clearly affected by that. He knew one mistimed tackle could mean a red card so his whole game was influenced by that incident. Give the lad a break. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brazil Banks Posted July 26, 2009 Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 Love the guy as an Everton player (in terms of attitude and work-rate) - just don't think he's good enough. Its not just about the cup final. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im a Hibbert fan, I dont think there is anything wrong with him defensively there arent many better tacklers than him in the Prem and if you want a man to do a job on a winger then its Hibbo. However he is woeful going forward and I do think it is the main area of our side that could be improved Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brazil Banks Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 And how many times have you seen a striker charging about in acres of space whilst you hold your head in your hands moaning "Hibbo!!!!"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moe Joe Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 He was very good going forward in the river plate friendly. But that was mainly because our guys were scared stiffless of getting injured and he stood out for his bravery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that was mainly because our guys were scared stiffless of getting injured and he stood out for his bravery. With all these rumours about getting a right back he really needs to play well to keep his spot. The last thing on his mind is an injury thats why he played like he did. Nothing to do with bravery.

duncanmckenzieismagic Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 Its all by the by anyway because according to this mornings Daily Post we arent after him anyway Everton, meanwhile, are not in the running to sign Tottenham defender Alan Hutton, despite reports saying that they are close to a £7m deal.

GMONEYone Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 Personally I would love to have hutton here, but I think redknapp will have him as first choice right back this season (even tho he has just bought naughton) as corluka will be used as cb due to their injuries and also the fact ledley king can only play 1 game per week (supposedly). A shame but i think we can right this one off. Lets just go out and get deffour and move pip back to his best position at rb, then we got hibbs as cover ( one of THE best back up full backs in the league imo).

He knew one mistimed tackle could mean a red card so his whole game was influenced by that incident. Give the lad a break. I'm not sure how being booked early explains him being out of position time and time again tbh. More often than not he'd drifted centrally and gave Malouda free reign. I was sat pretty much directly behind him in the first half and the lad was in a dream world from the first whistle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
