Have you ever been to Goodison mate?

Yes mate. Yourself?

Went about 5/6 times a season for about 15 years before I left the country three years ago.

Do you think he turned into a world beater in 2010, or what is your point? Because you're making no sense whatsoever.

Are you actually going to at least try and win this little argument?

Er... have Howard and Distin been ****e for 10 years?

What on Earth are you going on about?

I've disliked three players in recent Everton history. Care to bring up any other players who I spent "hours" abusing?

No? Thought not.

You're right. England international Leon Osman has been **** for a decade. Especially last year when he scored his 50th goal in his 300th start in a win against then reigning champions Manchester City in a season where he was joint second leading scorer with 8.

:lol: England international. I've just spat my cup of tea everywhere.

Do you think he'll be picked for even a semi-important match for England ever? His call up was nothing more than a token gesture for him being only relatively ****ter than the rest of the English midfielders who the manager couldn't be arsed risking in nothing fixtures.

50th league goal in 300 games... in the last 10 years (decade, remember what I said?) he's scored 37 league goals in 284 Premier League games, so one in eight games, an average of under five goals a season. Considering he's more of an attacking midfielder than a defensive one, that's pathetic.

Now I don't want to continue this much longer as, on a personal level (as I have mentioned), I think he's sound. I just think he's ****e, which I am entitled to. And lots of people agree with me.

Don't get all offended mate, it's alright.

But I'm furious though mate.
 

First few games he's been pretty damn crappy, but it's not like he's been crappy for years.

What worries me more than the lack of incisive passing is how much he gets bowled over on defense and stripped of the ball these days.

Ugly.
 
Osman has been off the pace this season. But tell you what, he'd have done a better job than anyone out there last night in keeping things ticking over in the second half and stopping Fulham having so much of the ball and so slowly getting on top. Our passing and ball retention in the middle half hour or so of the game was appalling.

Other people have clearly negged you for using last night as an argument in favour of Osman. They had good valid reasons for doing so, but I am stronger than this.

haha was waiting for his fan club to bring out this little gem
 

His injury at West Ham was a blessing in disguise. Makes you wonder why he's in there? To do a job defensively on the wing? If so why not play Oviedo? Truly baffled here, rather Naismith started than him. FFS, Roberto, thought Osman starting would be stopped the moment we signed McCarthy and Barry.

Pienarr injured. Gibson not really fit,Naysmith ( gash ), Delafoof ( not quite ready for 90 mins ) or Ossie. Hopefully Barcaboy will replace him with half an hour to go and score the winner.

He's not a winger. I'd much rather play oviedo, naismith or the barca lad there.

Hell I'd much rather push mccarthy out wide and play two up top.
