I heard Vellios was busy stuffing all manner of vegetables with dry cheeses and olives.

Can't really blame the lad for that.

When Moyes told the staff to put him on ice, I think they took it literally..

Newslang · January 5, 2012

He's our top scorer FFS. He doesn't even get on the damn bench.

FFS someone seems to have a bust-up with Moyes every other week these days.

Anyone else starting to think Moyes might be becoming something of a megalomaniac?

Edit: probably shouldn't listen to rumours.

We need him more than ever now too. I can't get my head around how sh*t Saha actually is.

Roztitute · January 5, 2012

If they had a bust-up I bet it was something along these lines:

Vellios: "Boss, I think I have earnt a place in the team, especially as Louis isn't scoring too much".

Moyes: "Consider yourself dropped".

Vellios: "Oh FFS".

well last thing i heard was moyes saying "im going to nurture him" so im guessing that hes gettin the barkley treatment and getting reserve games and what not.... seeing as how we dont need goals right now.....

amalias · January 5, 2012

Find the bust up rumours hard to believe. :coffee:

I mean Vellios does not have enough English to get into an argument with moyes - other than, 'i want to play..'
..not that moyes is a modern shakespeare himself!

Maybe the other strikers have penalties written into their contracts meaning Everton has pay out if they don't get played a certain amount per season..Where as the only sticking point in Vellios' contact from Iraklis was how many Souvlakis he will receive per goal..

Bust up with Moyes - he did'nt like him scoring all the time in training OR does not run round like a headless chicken chasing lost causes and told Moyes he was a centre forward and just wanted to score goals .

This. I'm suspicious of Drenthe's 'illness' too personally.

Yep same here. Something just doesn't seem right about it. Hopefully it really is just an illness.

Well he made the bench today, I spose that is a plus for him and must lift him.

It might just be as we need a certain amount of numbers though. Vellios has scored 3 times, he deserves game time!

He looked gorgeous when he was warming up. It's hard to believe that Denis is looking better than Tolos in training and so gets game time .

Gwladys St. Glory · January 7, 2012

You wanna read some wishful thinking...?

I imagine that Moyes leaves out Tolos and Ross because he doesn't want them to pick up bad habits, considering how we're playing. Hey, I'll justify it any way I can...
