Aaron Lennon ( On Loan January 2015 )

You can go off folk y'know.......

For £7 million I'll drive you there myself

A bit worrying that Stoke are saying he chose us over them because of guaranteed first team football.. it shouldn't be easier to get in our team than theirs.

That's just Hughes with a titty lip on him.

 

[Haston]

We need a winger, he's only 27, I'm sure he's desperate to get his career back on track, could be a very good bit of business!

 

[Elong]

Decided to stay mate.


I sort of meant at the actual game mate.

Y'know, let's not boo straight away.

Hopefully nobody ever boos any of our players. Saying he's crap here should be different to taking that attitude to Goodison as a "supporter", not really for me to comment on being on the other side of the world but I hope he gets some backing, look at the state of McGeady's confidence now.

Underawed

Worth every penny
@Groucho's a top bloke. Be sad to lose him though.

lollollol

 

[Toffeelover]

He needs to sort out that eyebrow tho, the massive melt

Better than having his head on upside down like Howard!

 

[Huyton Layne]

my main worry about him is injuries/fitness. His career stats are good if you ignore the lack of games. Hope he can do a job for us.

 

[coollino]

He probably just doesn't want to offend Stoke which is fair enough.

 

[n01efc]

Will he be available for European games?

No

 

[Tubey]

Doesn't get anywhere near the spurs team. I rate both squads around the same, so why are we taking him??? backward and unnecessary addition imo, loan move or not

Acquisitions don't work that way - we might be similar overall but Spurs have strengths in areas we do not, and vice versa.

Not saying Lennon is great (he's the opposite in fact), but just because he couldn't get in the Spurs side doesn't mean he can't do a job for us.

The fact the last time he did a "job" at all for anyone was in about 2009 is the main concern. Lennon at his best? Yeah, I'd take him all day long, as he'd be a danger off the bench if nothing else. But Lennon as he's been for the last half a decade? Grim.

Calculated gamble on loan I feel, but wouldn't be surprised if he got the Atsu treatment if he turns up at FF and performs as he has done for quite some time now.

That's just Hughes with a titty lip on him.

Not the first time he's had one with Everton

 

[davek]

I am with you Dave, give him a chance. For me better option than McG.

We have options out wide again, at least.

If he stays fit I think he could be a real boost to the attack. He finds feet better than McGeady and Mirallas.

 

[Kantareller]

Wow, he's 27! Thought he was much older

 

[Wizard]

He's apparently made seventeen appearances for Spurs this season, although I'm not sure how many are starting roles of subs.

Just checked, in the league he has started 3 games and come on as sub in 6 so not much playing time there.

I'm not going to complain though. We need a winger, he's really fast at the very least so will hopefully cause some problems. And it's a loan so if he's crap we don't need to keep hold of him.
