lot to love. no diva attitude, worked hard for his chance. when presented with it, while we were wringing our hands "what will we do without Baines?", he grabbed the opportunity. As a young Evertonian, his goal at Old Trafford is up there with Naisy's against Chelski as my most memorable. I banged the coffee table and shouted so loud my dogs thought our house was under siege.
horrid injury that cost not only his BPL season, but thrashed his shot at repping his country in the WC. might completely derail the weak-willed, no, not him. smiled the whole time. busted his ass beyond belief to recover, smiling all the way. (never mind posing for pics with kids at Goodison)
the fact he referred to the kit as "Beautiful" and apologized for losing a match we didn't need a result from... class. He wants to send each and every one of us Blues home with a huge grin each and every time out, even when it doesn't count.
in an increasingly diva professional athletic environment, gotta love the underdogs who bust their ass, smiling all the way and glad for each chance they merit, and the opportunities it affords them.
iVamos Oviedo!
