Pat Posted June 12, 2006 Report Share Posted June 12, 2006 I would be all for something like that, if personal terms were agreable etc. http://sport.independent.co.uk/football/Everton...ticle799487.ece Porto offer Everton McCarthy swap for Van der Meyde By Jason Burt Published: 12 June 2006 Porto hope to interest Everton in a swap deal, with the South African striker Benni McCarthy moving to Goodison Park in exchange for Andy van der Meyde. ..............................

Adam Posted June 12, 2006 Report Share Posted June 12, 2006 They saying a straight swap as well with no money involved which would be quite good. If VDm does really want to leave then swap him for Benni and then we have back up for the strikers. Then just need to bring in someone to replace VDM may be from the lower leagues at a lower price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted June 12, 2006 Report Share Posted June 12, 2006 (edited) Looks like could be another over the top player, in 3 seasons at Porto he hasnt played a league match, only plays in Euro matches and internationals. Has played 19 games and been used 6 times as sub, and scored 8 goals, but all in other competitions. Very very strange. not played a lot of football in the last 3 seasons. So on that basis he might give us the same amount of games we got from V D Meyde Benni McCarthy Real name Benedict McCarthy Date of birth 12-11-1977 Place of birth International Caps 47 International Goals 21 Current Club Currently playing for Porto Signed on 16-07-2003 Porto playing career Club From.....To.............League........FA Cup.........League cup.......Other Porto 2003---2006..........0 (0) 0.........0 (0) 0............0 (0) 0..........19 (6) 8 Games played by Benni McCarthy in 2005/2006 Goals 07-09-2005 International Germany 4-2 South Africa 1 28-09-2005 European Cup Porto 2-3 Artmedia 0 19-10-2005 European Cup Porto 2-0 Inter 1 01-11-2005 European Cup Inter 2-1 Porto 0 06-12-2005 European Cup Artmedia 0-0 Porto 0 Yellow cards: 0 Red Cards: 0 Goals: 2 Edited June 12, 2006 by toffeelicker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamsmith69 Posted June 12, 2006 Report Share Posted June 12, 2006 Sounds like another big dunc, apart from plays fewer games. though he used to be decent obviously now he aint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Posted June 12, 2006 Report Share Posted June 12, 2006 ^ mmm ^ Could be the answer, but means he is behind all the others for selection, cant be as good as we think he is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamsmith69 Posted June 12, 2006 Report Share Posted June 12, 2006 i would prefer to keep jimmy mac as a backup rather than have benni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoldfishMemory Posted June 12, 2006 Report Share Posted June 12, 2006 I'v never liked McCarthy at all and i'm standing by my earlier statements that Andy Pandy will come good this year. I think all this talk of him wanting a move is manufactured and the problem is with moyes turning his nose up. I know hes been injured for most of his career and all the other stories but we all know IF he plays he is good and thats alot more than standing by players like Bent and McFadden! I still think he is worth as much now as he will be in January and we should keep him until then before shooting the fat arse piss head if he aint performing. My humble opinion as always Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
