marcus jones Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 Felli is a game winner. I don't know why so many fans are happy to see him go. While he is here, it keeps us on the footballing map, and in the eyes of Europe in terms of players wanting to join. Baines is 29 in December. If we must lose somebody, I'd rather it were Osman. Well said Avin, I don't see a another midfielder in the prem to touch him for less than the rate of say £30 mill minimum. I don't see any other prem clubs banging at Wigans door for Mcarthy do I? :dont know: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 Then surely sell Kone and Jelavic ? :dont know: I can only presume Vic and Martinez have had words, as to close him out when he was our in form striker is bonkers. Certainly odd that he wasnt in the squad today. Im not sure he will be good enough at bringing other into play along the ground, but I think he would be a good player to bring off the bench to mix it up a little more. I think I would rather have Vic then Jela tbh. If wouldn't mind seeing Fellaini & Vic go, bringing in McCarthy (hopefully at a reasonable price) and bringing in a more proven/promising striking option at a higher price. Jelavic and Kone aren't doing it for us, Anichebe's work rate was great last year, but he's nothing more than a supersub or someone who can hold up a ball (not a true goal scorer), and I'm assuming Vellios won't cut it as neither Martinez or Moyes have shown an interest in giving him a run out in the past 12 months. Sell Kone based one competitive 90 mins?! Jeez you are hard to impress! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think vic will never make it to the levels we want him to. He doesnt give enough in a game. He is a trier but we need some sheer class up front and he's not the answer. He's another Kenwyn Jones, Carlton Cole, Shaun Goater, Shola Ameobi, Eubanks Blake.... He will just trail away, and his attitude stinks. He sounds like he's just left school in some of his interviews.... Very immature on and off the pitch... He thinks trying 100% guarantees you a starting place when you need a good percentage of raw talent. Matt and Sibdane 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avinalaff Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 If you want to see how Anichebe fits in to this system, take a look at the Accrington match where he sat centrally with his back to the defenders, and the attacking midfielders played one / two's with him. It's still on my site in the preseason section if you missed it. I think that could work well in the league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete0 Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 Personally think Anichebe will be a vital cog, as Avin has stated he suits the new style well. Kone and Jela are similar, might as well sell Jela whilst he has any value and interest. As for Felli, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowensda Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 Based on his appearance today, I think it was sentiment, not tactical. Then when he scored, every single Ayer went over to him, embraced or ruffled his hair. They just looked like they'd signed him off. I think he's gone. I really think its been done after tonight's reactions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StevO Posted August 31, 2013 Report Share Posted August 31, 2013 IF it happens it will be an undisclosed fee from Evertons side, unless we get more than the release clause. But United will probably leak the fee so they appear to be backing Moyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StevO Posted August 31, 2013 Report Share Posted August 31, 2013 (edited) fair enough. when was the last time a fee wasnt undisclosed when Everton were involved? Nearly as secretive as North Korea.

msloan78 Posted August 31, 2013 Report Share Posted August 31, 2013 It's starting to get to the scary point were we've got to trust that replacements are in hand if/when Fellaini and/or Baines goes. Fuming at United, as they've known the stance of the club and haven't, as far as I know come back with any further offer which is reasonable. I'm really concerned that something will happen tomorrow or Monday night and we'll be fooked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dalziel Kane Posted August 31, 2013 Report Share Posted August 31, 2013 That 'fat bald scot' Gray ,was a pivotal player for us during his Everton tenure and was instrumental in helping the club win honors in his short time. Damn fine player, even if he did turn down the job offer in 1997 to take over from Royle to concentrate on his Sky Sports duties. As for Felliaini, not buying into any rumors or social network banalities. Right now, he's an Everton player, and until official word comes through that an offer has been accepted or the club makes a statement, you can't look too much into things. I do feel actually that he may be departing before the window closes, but until that time occurs, won't be getting in a state with anything. Just waiting for some actual confirmation on this issue.

Cornish Steve Posted August 31, 2013 Report Share Posted August 31, 2013 The Mirror is reporting a 36m deal for Fellaini, with Lingard coming to Everton in a season-long loan. If that number is correct, it's quite extraordinary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that number is correct, it's quite extraordinary. No way in hell that's true. But I'd be absolutely supportive of that deal. Lindegaard though? I would've liked to bring him in over the summer as our #2, but I don't see why we'd bring him in now. Unless it's viewed that Joel is not a suitable #2. On second thought, the Lindegaard part makes me think this is complete bullshit. Edited August 31, 2013 by Quinn31 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
