Hafnia Posted December 8, 2013 Report Share Posted December 8, 2013 http://www.football365.com/everton/9061484/Premier-League-Everton-defender-Sylvain-Distin-expects-to-sign-a-new-deal I'd give him a 2 year deal, shows no signs of slowing up - absolute freak of nature. In two years Stones will be a regular. Quinn31 and markjazzbassist 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee_in_LA Posted December 8, 2013 Report Share Posted December 8, 2013 Agreed haf, the man is an absolute tank. It's always been shocking to me that he never received a call up by France's int'l squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

France doesn't believe in having pacey, strong, freaks like Distin. They'd rather have some softy who goes down at first contact, even at centerback. markjazzbassist and Toffee_in_LA 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markjazzbassist Posted December 8, 2013 Report Share Posted December 8, 2013 good news, i hope we do sign him to a new deal. he's still world class at his age. i also believe stones will benefit from learning the craft from jags and distin.

thoward18 Posted December 8, 2013 Report Share Posted December 8, 2013 Distin is truly a bizarre but pleasant case. He's 35 so he should be slowing down. Instead, it seems like he's caught a second wind. He's playing some of the best football of his career right now. nobody is going to mistake him for Thiago Silva or Vincent Kompany but Distin has been rock solid. Such a nice surprise.

If he was even 5 years younger I'm sure that the biggest sides in the world would come in for him - he's been brilliant for us. It was great to see him passing the ball out today, really seeming to revel in the way of playing, looking to better himself even at that the ripe old age of 35 (just bitter because he's younger than me).

Guest Nikica Posted December 8, 2013 Report Share Posted December 8, 2013 Very good player. I've always thought Distin was underrated and is good enough to play CL football. Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sibdane Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 Normally, I'd be all about getting the older players out and the new in, but Distin has been so vital for us that I want him staying as long as his performance level stays up. He's such a fantastic player! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gethinO Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 He is a freak of a human being. His strength, pace and fitness is up there with any prem player and he's 36 next week!! Think he's much more consistent now than he was 10 years ago and he would probably say that he's playing the best football of his career during the last few seasons. BEAST!

verreauxi Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 Touch for touch, I always thought Distin was pretty consistent and having wisdom in the back is always good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Nikica Posted January 9, 2014 Report Share Posted January 9, 2014 He is a good player - and I shouldn't have attacked him in the other thread for his views on Moyes and Martinez. I still think he should give more credit to the new boss, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romey 1878 Posted January 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 but we are missing Distin and Jags partnership. Most definitely. I mean, we've been leaking goals since they've been out. We must've conceded about 3 since the partnership has been missing. Shocking!

efc 4life Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 http://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/360796/Everton-defender-Sylvain-Distin-returns-to-full-training-ahead-of-West-Brom-clash Hope he is back for the WBA game. I do like Stones in defense but we are missing Distin and Jags partnership. We do need to move on from this ageing partnership soon. They cant keep performing at this level especially at his age. He does continues to prove me wrong which is great but I think we need to get his replacement ready. Stones has a great player to learn from here and I hope he makes the most of Distins experience.
