Glad he's made a good impression. Very much a Steve Walsh signing which is encouraging.

I'd expect him to have a Lookman style impact and probably have time out of the side to work in weaknesses. High praise from Koeman though.

Extraordinary praise from Koeman considering how suppressed he usually is with his comments.

I have to admit I never noticed the lad while playing us because I was too busy being a top bloo and fuming at our players, but I've seen the video of his touches in both legs against us and he was top notch.

Very excited about this lad.

The centre mid that the commentators were calling 'Barry', but who actually had Abu Hamza on the back of his shirt, was the one I thought really stood out during the Split games.

Vlasic sounds like my kind of player, though.

barry was just a workhorse tho. he was all over the pitch and had two good games, but you'd think he has no where near the ceiling or technical ability as vlasic. i mean we got a big alarm bells when vlasic scooped it over our defense and pickford knocked over the split attacker. one brilliant pass could've changed the game if the ref called it right

love the way he backs into players and shields the ball. uses his strength very wisely then skips past em
 
I think someone mentioned that Spurs and Real Madrid were interested 2 years ago but his father wanted him to stay and develop at Split
His father is a sports coach so knows his stuff
Great coup by Walsh and Koeman if true.

Eh, he was awesome in the first game, but tactically we put the clamps on him a bit in Split - I didn't think think he was close to as dangerous in the second game.

It's worth it going back and checking out those game to watch Vlasic, though. He didn't have much of the ball in the first game - a bit at the end of the first half - and did a bit more in the second. But he did have some quality that the rest of his side lacked. At his age, that's impressive. I think we may see him a bit this year.

Anyone who's read my posts on current and previous favourite players will know what garbage this is.

I used a phrase from a local roofer who did some work on my house, with his son.

Richard, aside from being a spurs fan (a team I can abide given their decent contribution to the England team over the years, like Everton) is a good roofer, and a breakthrough author which you can read about here;

Political correctness Orly, is a farcical and often insincere behaviour adopted by humans unable to understand, objectify and enjoy differences as well as things they share.

Support Everton.
