Pienaar Loan confirmed

[Bainsey]

Yes but he will have no problems getting one for the Uk.

So he is signing next week is he, subject to a wp, so how can the deal be confirmed when its not going to be until next week.

I'm probably being too fuzzy, but journalism is a job for anyone who can pick up a pencil and paper.

Hold on he is a EU citizen, does he need a permit.

I thought he was South African - but he should get a permit as he is an international...

Yeah, but you used to have to do 120wpm Pitman New Era shorthand with it. Seriously, I agree with you, times have changed since my day, used to be news, now it's just entertainment, young whippersnappers can't....

How long does it take to get permit approval?

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

I thought that would finalized promptly. It was first suggested by today.

Anything on Vogel lately. The trail seems to have gone icy cold.

 

[Axlswhk]

Nevermind vogel, we are signing riquelme!

 

[Blue Wiz]

Just read that Pienaar got killed... at least in the Modesty Blaise episode I just finished.. So he won't be much use.

A couple of days to a few weeks.

Greeting form Oz lads. Frankly im not over impressed with his signings ive watched his promise for a number of years and hes never produvced consitnetly, lets hope that changes at Everton, intresting that him and ADM were in the same staring 11 @ Ajax.

LLast time i checked he played as an attacking central midfeilder, not really of the pacey variety so if he plays on the wing may be much of the same as in ossie playing out there.

Does anyone else find it a bit puzzeleing that of the signings weve mad piener jags and potential vogal there primary positions are centre midfield.

Desperately need winger IMO.

hello neiler, hows sunny aus? you having a good time? did you catch any of the asian cup whilst out there?

True to a certain extent, although their also versatile too and midfield is where we are severly lacking. I agree though we do need a winger, but now we have Pienar we'll probably try to use him on the left wing, and Arteta on the right. Not ideal, but probably the closest we have to wingers at the moment.

well, with all the fuss being made of VDM at the moment, I believe moyes wants to use pienaar on the left and VDM on the right.

Imagine if BT had crosses to attack instead of a hoofed ball to the half way line!

 

[Sim]

You would have to be a massively optimistic person to rely on VDM to hold up the right. As much as I would like him to be able to do that.

For me, its the lack of width that is the whole reason why Moyes teams look so poor when attacking, so if we could address that problem, we could have a very exciting team on our hands.

 

[Rob]

well, we didn't do too badly last season, AJ gave us a real striking threat and with cahill, arteta, vaughn, osman etc chipping in we did very well for goals last season.

Our GD was superb.

As for VDM, I just think that because of all the coverage he is receiving on the OS it looks like they are trying to hype him up.
