Sir Landon Of Donovan

I used to love to come to GOT - loved y'alls sense of humor, loved the banter back and forth, the light-hearted fun and the footy talk and everyone (no matter where from) was welcomed and respected.

It seems lately more and more the tone has gone quite negative, with mean-spirited and somewhat bigoted (for lack of a better word) posting. And that's really too bad. It seems the better the team plays and the more fun they are to watch, the nastier it gets in here. Shame, really.

Or maybe I'm just too sensitive.

The transfer window does it. And Twitter. And Changy.

No forum could stay an exclusively happy place when all these factors are at large mate. None.
 

its people fault for over reacting, donavon would tweet " well done everton" after a win and everyone would come on here saying
"donavon is a true evertonian", "sign him up moyes", "True legend" and cream themselves

He has an obvious affinity with the club and us with him, showing it isn't a bad thing but I do agree some people get carried away.



















We love you Landon!!!!!!!!
 
This is pretty much it. And it may be that he's tiring from this and why he's saying what he's saying. Who knows. But it's not as simple as "he doesn't want to come" or any other bs someone comes up with.

This. A lot of you are making up stories from news reports that have nothing to do with Everton. Landon has always - sometimes to his detriment - been open with the press. He has always played to the beat of his own drum - choosing to help his domestic league rather than going abroad. A decision by the way I sometimes feel was more difficult for him based on the longstanding judgments that are in here.

He has said nothing that's different from anything he has said before.

Those of you that are boiling this down to just 1 news story and whether or not he can come on his own decision should know better.

After this being such a great thread I'm disappointed.

See you in Jan, Lando.
 

He's said that he doesn't want to come back.

I'm sorry, but you can't do this to fans.

Seriously? You realize much worse is said right? You realize this is a media game right? You know there's this thing called signaling right?

He said he wasn't coming last year 1 week before he was here. He currently plays for LA. He is not Modric who whined and whined and whined. He has respect for where he currently plays and here. He STILL talks us up.

You just sound bitter.
 
He did go abroad, though. 4 times if you count loans. He just came back.

Yup. First 2 times I don't count due to youth. At Bayern he was screwed by a situation beyond his control with Jurgen's firing. We were the first club where I felt he regretted his MLS contract. That shows how important we are.

I loved the man, absolutely loved him.

But I will ALWAYS put my club's ambitions and situation first.

He's hurt me, I'm sorry to sound gay - but he really has.
