I'm happy he's staying, don't get me wrong.

I just think he's got the talent to step up to the next level...but I'm guessing he's scared to.

Until he's gone up against some top European teams, he's always gonna be a "good player" to everyone outside Everton

Sounds like he'd have been second choice at ManU and the lad wants to play football rather than be a bench warmer for an extra <n>k per month. He'll have talked to Pienaar about grass being greener etc.

Luv you Leighton ... and I'm kind of fond of Fox too !!!

*reaches round
 
I love the idea that somebody wants a player to stay, and then when said player supposedly does decide to stay, that same person then starts questioning the players' ambition, claiming he's scared to move, etc.

If that thought process wasn't so tragic, it would be hilarious.
 

Fantastic stuff, really pleased to hear that this morning.

Genuine question, can Kenwrong still force a sale if a decent offer comes in?
 
But would another club be willing to buy a player who doesn't really want to play for them ?

I just remember things like the Duncan Ferguson episode to Newcastle.

Sorry not trying to bring a downer on the thread just curious about the legal and contractual side of things.

No. These things require the player to sign a contract. Baines has said he doesn't want to.
 
That Duncan Ferguson episode was a downer tbh. Wasn't he sold behind Walter Smiths back ?

Yeah, left him in tears, that's why I wondered, if Dunc didn't want to go but still did, perhaps the same would happen with Baines.

But apparently not, so that's ****ing ace, Baines lad, not even arsed about United lad.
