CraccerC Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 good player but i think this is a little steep, i think 6.5 would be about right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 Maybe a bit too much in terms of the fee but he's quality and I hope he chooses us (if it's even true). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CraccerC Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 i rate him but I wouldn't want him here, I don't think he'd fit into our side when Arteta is back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 Can pass a ball but thats about it, the way he lumbers about in midfield makes Fellaini look like a greyhound. Too heavy and not mobile enough for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevO Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 im sure moyes can sort out his workrate. i hope we get him (not as exciting as moutinho, but still a good move i think) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Everton_Worshiper Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 I hope we get him...one of those players that is never really mentioned that much but does a decent job at what he does. Might even keep Fellaini on the bench... But £8.5m seems excessive, let's hope it is an Everton special deal (£1m up front, £7.5m if we win Premier League) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuffRob Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 Emm - £8.5M - that does sound a bit on the expensive side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian C Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 Hope this is true, he is a quality player. Glad to see that if we're signing Huddlestone we're doing it early lol, because he definitely needs a full pre-season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Memmaclub Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 I would be glad to have him at everton but it does seem alot to spend on a player where we have ample cover for the CM. We seemed to be linked to alot of CM when it seems obvious it is outwide that we rquire players Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We seemed to be linked to alot of CM when it seems obvious it is outwide that we rquire players moyes doesnt really do wide players though. look through out our midfield, not one player who is naturally a wide player. even pienaar, probably our only wide player, has been excellent in an advanced central role for SA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Memmaclub Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 He tried to get obina on loan who is a quick wide player so he does do wide players Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Everton_Worshiper Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 He tried to get obina on loan who is a quick wide player so he does do wide players But we did not sign him...so no he does not do wide players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigb Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 look around and lets find a better deal, 3/4 spurs fans don't rate him, he aint mobile enough for our team, and he doesnt even get into the spurs team, when in fact were a better team than spurs. So overall a big no from me. Moyes can do better, don't just think we had slow movement in the transfer market last year, that we have to go all guns blazin with 8mil+ for that kind of player. Think Moyes Think!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DangerMouse Posted June 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 (edited) How do you explain Fellaini then? Apparently fellaini is "deceptively" quick.... While watching the season review DVD the commenter said so on several occasions When Moysie bought him his hair was short...... you get were I'm going..... now his drag when sprinting is considerably higher... hence he moves soooo slowly.... Moyse couldn't have thought of this..... Fellaini also played in a much tighter kit when playing for Standard..... he moved like lightening when playing for them.... short hair and a tighter kit...... Moysie had the wool pulled over his eyes Edited June 26, 2009 by DangerMouse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adpom Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 just been on radio city that Everton have said they are NOT 1 of the 3 clubs who've bided 8.5mil for him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevO Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 He tried to get obina on loan who is a quick wide player so he does do wide players obina is more of a forward, who can play out wide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carlmc25 Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 http://icliverpool.icnetwork.co.uk/0400eve...-name_page.html Rules out Reyes as well. I always thought Reyes was pretty crap at Arsenal so that's good news, although I may have been tempted if he was really cheap. As for Huddlestone, he struggles to get into the Spurs side and has hardly set the world alight, he's not worth £8.5m from what I've seen. We need someone dominant, aggressive and physical in the middle to go alongside Arteta, then we'd have some midfield - although to be fair Neville did an excellent job during the back half of last season.

Guest blueboy122 Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 I would definatley take huddlestone and reyes, both in my opinion quality quality players. huddlestone would be a fantastic signing i think because of his power size and passing ability he reminds me of a carrick, sits nicely infront of the back 4 and sprays balls around the park, but i suppose we do need winger for him to spray the ball to and jose reyes would be ideal! big name and i would imagine big wage!!

Guest blueboy122 Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 craccer, the defence in my opinion do not need "protecting" as such just sumone to sit there and mop up anything that comes out of the defence very much what michael carrick does. i personally like the boy and think he would be an ideal signing, also if he keeps that donkey felliani out of the team then i am all for it. the lad is a donkey and a liability. i will never know how he gets the praise he does! anyway thats a totally different topic! id rather have a young english player like huddlestone who can be worked on and could be so influential in everton rather than mr big time mbia. i just feel that with a player like huddlestone offers a fantastic oppertunity for everton to have one of the best but unknown passers of the ball and hes got two feet! we all know mikel can pass but when do u see him spraying balls across the park the way carrick, huddlestone, alonso etc does and can Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CraccerC Posted June 27, 2009 Report Share Posted June 27, 2009 is mopping up not a form of protection...look at the great sides, bar united at the minute, most of them have a good defensive midfielder. i don't think we need a huddlestone or a carrick, think they'd be wasted in our team, we need a carsley or a makelele that will dive in the way, plug holes and help the defence and just play it simple to arteta.
