The work permit will be interesting.

If it goes to a hearing, I think these points will help:

- He just won the biggest club competition in Central/South America
- Also scored in the final
- Was called up into the Argentina squad for the upcoming friendlies in the USA with a view to be part of the future.
- Very good on the ball, which is something most English players lack. Thus according to the work permit criteria, he an be considered beneficial to the development of the English game.
 
From the Echo: He will need to acquire a work permit before he can play for Everton.

Sounds like one of them buys that falls at the final stage but they tried to get someone in to keep the fans happy...etc

Here is a snippet of the ruling brought in by the FA and the home office.

Work permit changes - key points
Currently, players must have played at least 75% of their country's internationals over the past two years. That will now change according to ranking. Players must play at least 30% of matches in the last two years if their country is in the top 10, 45% if ranked between 11th and 20th, 60% between 21st and 30th and 75% if between 31st and 50th.
Player currently must have played for a country in the top 70 when rankings are averaged over two years. That will be lowered to the top 50.
All players are currently measured over the last two years. The new regulations will allow leeway for players aged 21 or under to only fulfil the criteria for the previous 12 months.
The FA estimates that 33% of the players who gained entry under the old system would not have been granted a work visa under the new rules. That means that over the last five years there would have been 42 fewer non-European players playing in the Premier and Football Leagues.

yes yes.. but is his wife/girlfriend fit enough?
bikini shots or jarg embarrassing softcore pics from her early forays into modelling will be enough evidence for us to make a judgement on his playing ability and suitability.
