Its all over, I can't cope with it. God has dealt me a dodgy hand yet again. I'm off to listen to TW Greatest Hits and slowly float away with a nice bottle. Its all black, black, black, ughh...........................................................
 
Osman can pass but he can also dribble into players and lose the ball too often. Lets face it, we needed that central midfielder that we didnt get unfortunately, due to Fernandes being a wankjob. Hopefully the midfield will impress and prove me wrong.

Enjoy Ghost, night
 
Well dont complain when you get sick of the site of having Neville and Carsley in our centre midfield.
 

Ok Cal we won't. Really though, you are on the wrong site. It really isn't that bad. It wasn't Fernandes that got us into Uefa spot last season. It was Carsley, Neville etc...

Oh and we signed:

Jagielka
Baines
Piennar
Yakubu
Da Silva
Lukas
Wessell
Gravesen

Remember Gravesen???

Just don't worry so much.
 
But we have Osman, Arteta, VDM, Piennar, Vidarsson, Da Silva, Gravesen, oh and Cahill back next month.

Talk about knee-jerk reactions.

Imagine if like in previous seasons we end up with nobody new, this place would be just like TW. Oh hang on, it was wasn't it.
 
Christ Cal! What's wrong with yer man! We've now got Tommy Grav and Cahill's coming back in a few weeks. We've also got Osman, Arteta, Pienaar and Jags in midfield. No need to worry man!
 
I think its great we got Yakubu in so when Neville and co. kick long balls up, theres actually a man who has a chance to win them. I'm sure in due time we'll see a different sort of midfielder come in. Happy with what we got, could be better, but I'm not complaining!
 

i agree with you cal, we wanted batman and instead had to settle for robin :)

The least the club couldve done was say that we are not signing riquelme, even after the deadline they have nothing to say. We need a creative mid...if you look at our signings...souldnt we have done without them anyway this season? none of them has made an impact for everton have they? I had faith in moyes that he would deiliver a new signing by tonight, maybe not riquelme, but anything that can play football better than past-it gravesen.

Baines and jagielka the only signings that i am happy with, gravesen a panick buy, and yakubu im not sure about, he seems abit like beattie, plays well when he wants to, and towards the end of the season trails away...we'll see what he turns out like though...cos there not many youtube videos of him on cos of teh middlesbrough fans!

So when Grav has a useful season, we expect a full written apology from you Dom. I can't believe you are writing him off before he starts.

you wont get a full written apology, youll get an "i was wrong..."and thats all :P,and it depends what you mean by useful season...i cant see him starting many games myself, the first team will probably be...

howard

neville, yobo, lescott, baines

arteta, jagielka, cahill, osman

Johnson, yakbu

And somehow moyes will have to put carsely, gravesen, pienaar, hibbert, stubbs, valente, vdm, vaughan, anichebe all in the squad...

What a load of old [Poor language removed]. If I said it once I've said it ten times. Yakubu has a better goals to games ratio then even the great Graeme Sharp. So stop sulking, and start showing some [Poor language removed] support for the players we have.

Moon on a [Poor language removed] stick. We were unfortunate with Fernandes, and I truly believe Moyes tried his best to get someone in. He got Gravesen because he was available, and is a great squad player to have. They have obviously been trying to get a player in but its not easy, but then were all football managers aren't we? We know best, we know exactly what goes on behind the scenes and we can all do better. Bollocks.

And Cal Ambition? We have signed some great players, we have sold crap players, we are looking to move to a new plush stadium. How are we lacking in ambition. Just because Riquelme didn't arrive. Well boo [Poor language removed] hoo.
