Leon Osman

[orly]

An invisibility for 99% of his career

The other one percent is the lamentably many times he has been in the team photos

 

[ArtetaMoney]

Love that he hardly plays for us, that's his best attribute

 

[Eric Djemba-Djemba]

That wasn't meant as a slur on cahill. To put it another way, he was a victim of being more versatile than Cahill. They were both best, at their peak in the same position.

Even if we disagree on Osman's ability, then surely you must agree that using Ossie on the right wing for years was never gonna get the maximum from him?

Yeah it would have helped Osman playing him centrally it was just a Moyes thing to play central players wide. It also seems to be a Martinez things.

I've just never rated Osman and I doubt him playing instead of Cahill would have changed my opinion.

 

[Dithering Dougie]

I was feeling kind

Clearly by padding it with Blomqvist, Graverson, Fernandes and Ginola..

Hey lads do you know what Moyes should have done, built his team entirely around Osman.

That would've been ace. Best first touch of any current player apart from perhaps Messi.

The Skem Skiller Supreme.

Fergie used to play Rooney our wide...and Scholes...

wow, this could get really personal douglas, you even dream of having a pop at manny, you better wake up and apologise

 

[mythbuster]

Very few, in fact so few it's embarrassing. But it's also an indication of how English football has been for 25+ years, not so much a slight on Everton.

Was basically just on about longevity mate. Wayne left when he was a teenager, before he'd even been a starter in every game for us (although I'm sure he would have been if he'd stayed for the 04/05 season.)

I'm still laughing at the Blomqvist, Gazza and Ginola shouts. Hilarious.

Ossie must be the luckiest guy on the planet. All 100cm and 5 stone of him has yard-dogged his way around the top half of the premier league for over ten years.

Never here long enough to call him an Everton player, at best he's a piss stained hobbo who got a shirt from Oxfam..

your the one stating he is a victim of not being as good as someone else, that's not victimization, that's being crap

So Gascoigne, considered by many non-Osman obsessives as one of the most talented players to have played in this country, did not have a better touch that Leon Osman.

You heard it here first folks.

What in those 4 or 5 games he played well in, and then did what else with this huge talent?..

Sadly when Gazza played for us his first touch was for a bottle not a football and he looked like he'd been on it for days during most games.
