But Vellios is younger and on lower wages and he's ours without us having to spend any money on signing on fees or agents or even adding to our wage bill. If Rodallega can come into our team and boss it then fine but if not, and I don't rate him at all, then why not go with the players we already have rather than bringing in someone solely to have someone in.

The young kids like Vellios are never going to get better unless they get time (and the way Vellios was rewarded for scoring goals by being shoved off into the reserves was disgraceful) and handing off game time to guys like Jimmy McFadden, Anichebe and Rodallega instead hurts us unless they can contribute something that Vellios just isn't capable of. And I don't see it from Hugo. Love for him to prove me wrong but I don't see the advantage of bringing in this guy rather than just using our kids as back up for Jelavic.

Why about if Moyes doesnt rate Vellios- he sees him every day in training, reserves etc etc. Who are you to make that call??

I dont think any of us are in a position to say that Vellios is better or actually any worse than Rodellega. Thats why David Moyes is a manager and you and me arent.

So we're arguing that Moyes is never wrong, here and all the fans should do is shut up and accept his wisdom?

When did being an Everton fan become a religion again? Also, Victor Anichebe has played more than a hundred games.

We're trying to form a challenging team here, not run a creche. Also Vellios isn't very good at all & imo will never make it in the prem.

You're completely missing the point. Why hasnt Vellios been playing? Why has Moyes been chasing more forwards? Is it because that Vellios isnt good enough?! Or has he been so sick of having no options going forward he wants to have as many options as possible?

I dont know the answers but our manager does. Yes Vic has played games whats your point?

That sometimes Moyes gets it wrong.

Because you seem to be arguing that I can't have an opinion on a player unless it's the one Moyes has as he knows them better than I do. In which case we can all agree that Anichebe deserved his 100 appearnaces and should never be sold but Barkley can koff right off.

And we might as well get rid of this forum, too since clearly fans having an opinion is a waste of time. We should just listen to our betters.

We've been crying out for a bit of man-strength (mental & physical) for years now, players who know the tricks & who will take responsibility. Happy days as far as I'm concerned.
Plus, again, Vellios imo is a nothing player.

Rodallega can not reasonably be described as someone who will take responsibility.

I just don't rate the lid. I think he'll bomb and we'll be lucky to get five goals out of him in the next two years. While, I think Vellios has it in him to do well.

You still completely dont get my point so its no point carrying on. Didnt think I could make it any clearer but hey ho you still missed it.

Anyway I hope he does sign, different to what we currently have and I think he went a bit stale in a poor Wigan side, this move with better players could mean a step in his ability in my opinion.
