Transfer Rumour Juan Mata

[Stuartisitc1878]

Whilst Witsel would be a very good signing the idea of Mata in an Everton shirt makes me moist.

Could anyone imagine this deal being on if El Broguez was still at the helm? No, me neither.

If you look at koemans (official) twitter account he follows 74. only a handful of those 74 are footballers currently playing. One of those is Mata.

He had mata at Valencia.

He had mata at Valencia.

I doubt he was using Twitter back then

I hope he signs for someone else so the puns stop.

I have never and will never use them. Then again... maybe just Juan...

If he had the money that Moshiri is providing this year then yes...why not?

My final post on Mata I promise.

A few of you will accuse me of being a kopite because of my strong opinions on Mata but I promise you, look at my posts in the Liverpool thread - you will then see that I am not one of them.

I am a football geek, an obsessive if you like. I follow the game closely and have my favourite players and players that I think are hugely overrated. Unfortunately for me, Mata falls into the latter category.

If we were in for De Bruyne or Payet then I would be excited. They have a more pace and have more to their game.

Mata, again, is too weak and slow for this league. It's why the very best managers don't rate him. And if we want to be the very best, we need to avoid.

If we were in La Liga, I would be all for this transfer. But we are in the hustle and bustle of English football.

It will only end in tears.

We've been crying out for a player with his qualities for years mate

He was close friends with him. Mata mentioned it a few years back about koeman giving him the belief and confidence at Valencia.
Ps. Koeman and Mata invented twitter

Good players don't want to play for clowns.

Money changes everything.

I was behind RM up until about March, but the quality of player a name like Koeman attracts is in a different calibre to Martinez, mate

Nah. He'd only be going there to sit on the bench, and they've just re-signed Denis Suarez as it is.

Mata was one of the first people that Koeman followed, it's not a recent development. Probably in 2012 when he joined Twitter
