Aaron Lennon ( On Loan January 2015 )

[Tramps_mate]

No, he's cup-tied. Played for Spurs in it.

Are crap...

 

[Tramps_mate]

He'll score the winner on Saturday

Bet he doesn't even appear for us for 3 games.. Another wasted loan?

What's with his sad expressions in photos?

 

[MartSlinger]

Still feel meh about this signing but his interview made me like it a little bit more. As always im willing to give a new player a chance.

What's with his sad expressions in photos?

He hates Osman.

What's with his sad expressions in photos?

Allegedly he's been told to bin the earrings.

Nope he was warned and afraid of going down town of a night with the sparklers in his lugs.

First of all, I can understand why some are a bit underwhelmed over the signing of Lennon if you're just looking at his stats, but believe me they don't tell the full story.

I'm not sure what's gone on behind the scenes but apparently, and according to well respected ITK, there were problems with a group of younger players (Kane, Mason etc) with a more senior group (Adebayor, Kaboul - and to a lesser extent Lennon) which concerned Pochettino. Without getting too much into the realms of speculation, although it certainly all adds up if you're of a Spurs persuasion, I think Lennon maybe needed a fresh challenge.

He did split opinion with Spurs fans but I was always very much a big Lennon fan, and still am. Without doubt we've been a better team with him in the side than him out of it over the last 8 years or so.

Some of the possession purists don't rate him as much but its undeniable that he stretches teams and always creates space for others to exploit. And that's key. On the counter attack we've been very dangerous over the years with Lennon in the side - the Crouch goal against AC Milan in the CL is a classic example.

He's just one of the those players who enhances your attack - through his speed and acceleration. He's not always supplying assists but its often his pace, movement and ball carrying that sparks a dangerous opening or at least a threatening situation. Many a time its been his movement and pass that has come before the assist.

He also works very hard defensively. Tracks back in spades, and if he's playing ahead of Coleman that is one right hand side you'll have.

Ignore the individual stats and judge how Everton play as a team with him in the side.

I'd have him over Townsend everyday of the week, and twice on Sunday. Sad to see him go and he's had a lot of great moments in a Spurs shirt but wish him well at Everton.

Thanks for reading, just thought i'd share my thoughts!

Interesting. Hopefully he impresses us as much as he has for you.

Thanks for the info mate, with luck his move here works out well for all concerned.

Hope you continue on the forum, nice having the point of view of other teams supporters.

@Yid4life nice one for this, anything to add - i think the Adebayor potentially going last night makes sense to this comment btw.

Cheers mate, interesting comments. If them rumours are true then surely Poch will be desperately wanting to get rid in the summer. Can definitely see us making it permanent if he does alright for us.

A Mirallas type player. Perfect- a chance to restart his career.
