2018/19 Leighton Baines

[Jayhow15]

He'd walk into the Liverpool side

Haha

I suspect he will retire at the end of the season.

What a servant he has been, best 6m this club has ever spent in its entire history.

He'll retire a loser.

....I think his contract is up at the end of this season and he’s on big bucks. It would make sense for him and us if he found himself regular football, a guaranteed two year deal and a final pay day elsewhere. As good as he is, £85k per week is a lot to pay a reserve LB.

Robinson hasn’t done enough to suggest he can be an effective back-up but I think he’ll still be under contract next season and might have to suffice.

USA would be my bet. Following Rooney

Harsh.

Fair but harsh

....yep, I was thinking along the same lines, especially given the links in the summer.

.....nice bank account for a loser.

Harsh.

Won nothing - AT ALL. Therefore a fact.

Still a loser.

Don’t disagree
Sad thing is I well remember seasons when we had a decent chance at the league and great cup runs
Easier supporting Everton in those far days

Still a loser.

If I’d played even one game for Everton I’d consider myself a winner.

Are we also calling Mick Lyons a loser by the same logic?

 

[Furey1878]

Everton for the cup Dave you monster!

 

[Loz]

Don't see it mate. You don't shoehorn you're best players into different positions to accomodate a player who's miles past his peak. Especially when Bernard is there.

I agree with you there. I wouldn’t necessarily play Baines for the sake of it, but it would give an option of replacing Walcott with Bernard. We could use Lookman of course, but he also blows hot and cold.

 

[Goat]

Played for a club he loves, near his family, earned a vast fortune, played for his country, yeah, Baines is a loser alright.

I wish I could lose like him.

Dave is just jealous of Baines footballing and photography skills

That’s hardly his fault mate. In an era of egotistical mercenaries his loyalty to the club should be applauded.
