Leon Osman

[Eggs]

I love how that goal was a proper classic Leon Osman grass-cutter.

Fine line between bossness and utter, utter gash.

...might be wrong but think he scored in that same goal a few seasons ago. Its funny how that happens, not only favourite grounds but favourite ends.

seems to me every sub he's made has paid off, can't think of a bad one he's made

Helps having the strongest squad an Everton manager has possibly ever had

Were talking, wholemeal, thick toastie warburtons, than thin stuff that comes with pate, even soldiers ffs

You must be **** if they can have you on that much toast.

 

[Housequake]

Changed the game.

Well in Leon.

Osman is a legend. Pipe down haters.
Moyes is a mong for not playing him in his best position all those years. Remember that season with Beckford? We were 14th and had an injury crisis. Moyes had no choice but to play Leon behind the striker... we marched up to 7th. Then start of next season he puts him on the wing. That's when I lost faith in Moyes.

Legend? wow.

Ossie is best off the bench. His quick thinking/feet are a danger to tiring opposition. Does practically nothing all things being equal these days.

Was thinking the same, he's finding it hard to compete and get a foothold in the game theses days but he's clever and fresh off the bench he can find pockets to work in as the game breaks up.

It has to be that way now, too. Good cameo appearance today or not, he cant command a starting place with Pienaar, McCarthy, Barry and Barkley almost guaranteed starts.

Played well today. Normally dire though.

Nice to have on the bench though, an experienced player who can influence a game late on.

He's not that terrible when utilised properly. I know you won't ever accept that because he embodies everything you hate about Everton but he's nowhere near as bad as you make out.

Fair do's to Ossie, made a telling contribution today. And fair play Martinez for using his squad wisely. Long may it continue.

In particular, Wolves away. Leon was top class that day. Moyes' biggest flaw for me was his inability to play a creative attacking midfielder unless asbolutely forced to.
