Just have a look back at last years thread and see the jump.
Mate the thing is Mata has been a square peg in the three years he's been at united, rumours that Moyes never wanted him, and he is not a lVG type player and was shunted around the team to make room for inferior but more favoured players of the manager
best way to judge him is at the team he was central to and which played to his strenghts - Chelsea - pre Mourinho
last two full seasons: 12/13 season Played 64 games 19 goals, 35 assists. 11/12 season Played 54 games, 12 goals, 20 assists
31 goals and 55 assists over two seasons is simply breathtaking prodcution from any midfielder
Thats 3 and 4 years ago though, has he been in the spain squad?
* Leaves space available in diaryTar mate. It's pretty apparent we are gonna spend a load of money from all the evidence like the media reports, that Russian on the board's comments, and Koeman dropping everything to come to us. I'm made up with that and not trying to be sucking lemons here.
Just saying, that doesn't guarantee success. If Moshiri and his crew of merry men crack it and bring success I'll neck every single one of yous.
In the meantime though there's loads getting ahead of themselves thinking Everton are back challenging "on the top table". You've seen us win stuff as have I. We're back at the top table when that starts happening regularly.
People need to remember that we finished 11th last year, I don't know who they expect us to buy if Mata isn't good enough.mate see my response in the other thread abnout how misisng the spain squad doesnt mean anything, there's a few players who missed out that you've been calling for us to go after for example
Mata is a top class player, who if the manger builds the side around his strengths and covering for his weaknesses is a world class player mate

Also Arteta went his whole career without being called up by Spain and everyone loved him when he was here.

Pretty much mate, Mata would be the best signing for a long long time that we have made, in fact the likes of witsel, strootman, scheiderlein and kovacic would all individually represent our biggest profile signing in the last 20 years
and those are just the names we know about...
I love you Goat but Bernardo Silva is quality.
7 goals and 1 assist, Mata craps on that in a harder league.
Mata is better but Silva is very talented that's all.
This is why no one posts any info on here anymore, we all get hounded outSURELY there's enough interesting stuff going on this summer without making up jarg stories to wind up fellow Evertonians?
