Louis Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 Moyes was watching him last night ! Potential England international playing in the Championship... could be a bargain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeO Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 According to the beeb... "Moyes is also determined to bring in another centre-back, with Middlesbrough's Robert Huth overtaking Philippe Senderos of Arsenal as the main target." So more likely to have been looking at him? Wheater would be a better option for me....despite being one hell of an ugly guy . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12ubb3rduck Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 whos better with the ball at their feet weater or huth. beacause i think moyes wil go for a ball winner (jags and yobo) with a player that can sweep up the mess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louis Posted August 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 Given the choice I think he would opt for Wheater.. I think Wheater has potential to be a better player? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Everton_Worshiper Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 Wheater is much better than Huth. Not that long ago that Wheater was being touted for an England place. Would be a great addition...wonder what price bracket he would fetch though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowensda Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 Wheater over Huth anyday. Louis do you know it was Wheater then? rather than Huth? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 He'd be a good signing but I doubt we'd be able to afford him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
efc-murph Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 boro will be asking for around £8 - 10 million for wheater and i cant see moyes paying above like £4m for a centre back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scouse Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 Would prefer Taylor, is it a bad sign that we are linked with alot of defenders from relegated clubs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainFerguson10 Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 Where's the link linking Wheater here then? Personally I think we could do better than him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scouse Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 Thinkthe link was that Moyes was at the Boro match Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troy8 Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 Would prefer Taylor, is it a bad sign that we are linked with alot of defenders from relegated clubs? No - Phil Jagielka? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueblood Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 Wheater today in the papers quoted as saying that he "cannot see himself playing for any other club than Boro"... so he is clearely at the crack pipe. For that reason alone we should steer well clear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubecula Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 Personally I don't like Wheater, possibly because we don't really need any more uglies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scouse Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 No - Phil Jagielka? Technically he was a Centre Mid when we signed him? but valid point hopefully the end result will be the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 Apparently had a 6 million offer for Wheater turned down BBC text, page 338. Dont know if this was before or after Distin, but we're probably looking for another one anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 Wheater isnt likely to come now after Huth has left to Stoke. i think Stoke have done a crackin bit of business there, Huth adn Tuncay, wouldve like Tuncay. not that we need him but he is a good player...

foobiezw Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 Lol imagine making a club full of good looking players.... Then again, having 11 Kaka's in a team might not be that bad..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree 100%. Obviously Moyes has much better sources than any of us, but I would have taken those two for the money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter H Posted August 29, 2009 Report Share Posted August 29, 2009 According to Aftonbladet we already have signed Wheater for 7 mil. And they are also quoting Daily Mail which say that we have signed Heitinga aswell. "09.30: David Wheater går till Everton från Middlesbrough för 81 miljoner kronor. Evertonmanagern ska enligt Daily Mirror också ha köpt holländaren Johnny Heitinga, 25, från Atletico Madrid. " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian C Posted August 29, 2009 Report Share Posted August 29, 2009 Would we really sign Distin, Wheater and Heitinga? Highly doubt it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted August 29, 2009 Report Share Posted August 29, 2009 If we'd signed them then I'd have expected Sky Sports News to have picked up on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter H Posted August 29, 2009 Report Share Posted August 29, 2009 Would we really sign Distin, Wheater and Heitinga? Highly doubt it. The news was posted this morning, after the Distin deal so thats what they are saying. I agree that it sounds funny, but then again, we have let a lot of goals in so far. DM might want a total change hahaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeO Posted May 16, 2010 Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 He's also far too ugly. With Pip and Hibbo in the side we can't afford to sign another gargoyle . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn balor Posted May 16, 2010 Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 Get rid of Yobo and get him in! Young, good old fashioned centre half a bit like Davey Watson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
