SimonButtle Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 Bolton, Newcastle, Middlesbrough, and Blackburn are all interested in Beattie, don't know why? we won't get more than £2-3M for him i think, but good luck to him wherever he goes. Quote
Blue 250 Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 With the right partner,and given time Beattie could do well else where.Has he ever had a really good crack at a partnership with AJ?......Could he have formed a duo with either Vaughan or Anichebe? A couple of the goals he's scored for us were quality,he's a cool penalty taker and he gives or has just lately when he's come on 100%! If Marcus Bent was worth £2million.....then we should get at least £3.5million for Beattie.....if we let him go! What if Nugent can't cut it in the Prem(could happen)and he won't be cheap will he!An injury or two and we could wish we'd kept him(Beattie) Johnson.....Vaughan...Anichebe....McFadden....Nugent!! Only one of those at the moment are proven prem goalscorers,and an injury to AJ,could prove a disaster...I'd hang on to Beattie,he can score in the prem. There's alot more money coming in with the new TV deal....money for european games(maybe)....and some more mone from the Rooney deal....Get Nugent.....and Fernandes...and 3 defenders! Quote
GoldfishMemory Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 Ask me the question Noel . . . . . . . . . . . . . . DEAL Quote
Bill Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 BLUE250 SAID.................................I'd hang on to Beattie, he can score in the prem. ....... I was a young lad the last time he scored........ Scored two this season, both from Penalty spot. As far as i'm concerned he can go for whatever anybody is prepared to pay, £3 or £4m will be fine.

StevO Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 id still be happy if we sold him without a replacement, but time to cash in! Quote
Blue 250 Posted April 11, 2007 Report Posted April 11, 2007 Some of the VERY few goals Beattie has scored for us in the prem, have been excellent goals.Ok so he's probably never going to be a 20 goal a season player....but who since Sharpy has? Nugent hasn't scored in the prem yet! and every time Vaughan and Anichebe take to the pitch the crowd myself included are willing the lads to do well and score.....unlike Beattie who seems to have people actually hoping he fails.He can't do what AJ can do on his own up front!Half of his games thats probably what he was asked to do.Add injuries and stupid sending off's and his Everton career never took off.If he's fit the only way to test him is something like 15 starts up front with AJ......But we can't afford the risk can we! Beattie baiting will continue....Confidence with forwards is probably more than 50% of their game....when he scores a goal,the hand to the ear gesture!!.....is that all about"well....shit now am I?"...maybe not! I'm pretty sure he knows what a large % of fans think! I wont shed a tear if he leaves.....but I will admit he probably wasn't given a real crack at the job.How long does a forward get?What if a £6million Nugent doesn't score in his first say 10 games.Do we adapt a style of play to suit a new forward.Didn't we aks Beattie to replace the hard working Bent in the loan role....was that what Beattie was good at?Aj's bloody great at it,but Beattie needed a partner and partnerships take time.

Yorkie Posted April 12, 2007 Report Posted April 12, 2007 (edited) Can't say I blame him for not being a fan of his. Beattie was shit hot at Southampton, and now he is at Everton he puts in piss poor performance after piss poor performance, I think that Nugent will be better even though he is inexperienced in the Premiership, Moyes worked with him at Preston and knows how he plays, he wouldn't bring him in if he didn't think he could manage it.

Romey 1878 Posted April 12, 2007 Report Posted April 12, 2007 Talking of Nugent I've heard that he's actually an Everton player and is only on loan at Preston Quote
Yorkie Posted April 12, 2007 Report Posted April 12, 2007 Seriously . Where did you hear that? Link maybe? Quote
MikeO Posted April 12, 2007 Report Posted April 12, 2007 Talking of Nugent I've heard that he's actually an Everton player and is only on loan at Preston Were you wearing your jim-jams when you heard this Mark? Told by a talking horse on his way to Aintree perhaps who also gave you a hot tip for Saturday? Quote
Yorkie Posted April 12, 2007 Report Posted April 12, 2007 Maybe it was Nugent is a Preston player who may be going on loan to Everton? Quote
Romey 1878 Posted April 12, 2007 Report Posted April 12, 2007 Seriously . Where did you hear that? Link maybe? Just word of mouth Were you wearing your jim-jams when you heard this Mark? Told by a talking horse on his way to Aintree perhaps who also gave you a hot tip for Saturday? Fuck off. Quote
MikeO Posted April 12, 2007 Report Posted April 12, 2007 (edited) Fuck off. Don't be silly...you didn't expect that to be taken seriously surely? I assumed it was a joke...I just meant "..in your dreams." Edited April 12, 2007 by MikeO Quote
Romey 1878 Posted April 12, 2007 Report Posted April 12, 2007 No not a joke, I don't believe it's true because if we'd signed a player in January, such as Nugent, and loaned them back to their old club then the club would have made a big song and dance out of it Quote
Mac Posted April 12, 2007 Report Posted April 12, 2007 Hahaha! I'm only guessing Mac, but I take it you are not a fan of his! Not really Ig, too many chances been squandered by the fat bugger, as long as one of the 4 take him off our hands I will be a happy camper. ATB Mac Quote
Blue4Ever Posted April 13, 2007 Report Posted April 13, 2007 (edited) Don't no what to make of beats......when we were in the champions league around that time he was playing great, unlike now wen he gets the ball the fans are on his back before he has had a chance he puts the effort it but is a confidence player, and untill he scores he will continuously play shite. he hasn't had the service at Everton. He likes crosses from deep and he wont get that here thats why everyone hates him so much, we hit long balls up to him every time but if we actully played to his strengths and crossed the ball and give him something to attack he would score. I think I know why moyes doesn't have Beattie ahead of Vaughan and even Vic is because he knows we don't have the wingers to play to how BT likes. Our style of play doesnt suit him unlike Vaughan who is playing quality. Im not a big BT hater but if we wer offered 4 million I think we need to take it. Edited April 13, 2007 by Blue4Ever Quote
tomhardyman Posted April 14, 2007 Report Posted April 14, 2007 I have run out of patience with Beattie to be honest. I used to defend him- but he has never performed at his best- or if he has it has been merely momentarily. I think its worth trying to offload him now for as much as we can and look into finding a replacement. Quote
Romey 1878 Posted April 17, 2007 Report Posted April 17, 2007 This would be a good deal for us if true http://www.fansfc.com/newcastlefootballclu...p?newsid=165775 Quote
Everton_Worshiper Posted May 1, 2007 Report Posted May 1, 2007 Beattie potentially leaving is the best news we have had for a long time! Gives the younger, and much better, players a chance to play! Quote
