Aiden McGeady

[Darth Toffeeman]

McGeady should look at Kone and how he has turned his career around. No one else can do that for him and clearly Martinez has seen something in him previously to have brought him here. Either Aiden wants to prove us wrong or just sink into obscurity. Up to him now.

Next up for a Hat-trick at this rate.

Aye, nervy days for some of the hate brigade. Tim Howard after Geads?

Says a lot that despite The Del sizzling it up, McGeady's thread keeps appearing on top of the Everton forum without needing to actually play
It's hard for supporters to remove that visualisation of those fastest feet in world football doing their thing in an Everton shirt.

Sad times here. I don't think McGeady has been given a proper chance. He has skill in abundance. Best for him is a loan move to show what he can do if given a proper chance.

Would you take £25m for him though?

The worst thing about McGeady is that he's never even threatened to prove the day one doubters wrong.

What an absolute waste of wages.

He was MOTM against Lille in the EL. And I thought he did well round that period.

The thing is that these type of players are completely mood governed. A place and team and manager is either spot on for them or they suffer massive confidence issues. Of course, that's no good for a PL team looking for a bit more in the way of a robust mentality.

It's fair to say his time at Everton has been easily the worst in his career.

All told, he's from a different age really. I liked the idea of him being here because I love those type of players who can flick a switch and do the tricks. But it just hasn't worked out. Sadly for him and us.

Anyone saying he has no talent though has rocks in their head. Big ones.

I would mate yes. Every player has his price.

Didn't realize that Glentoran had that kind of money to spend.

Which lille game was that? I seem to recall giving him dogs abuse in the away game, but I had drunk about 10 pints of Trappist beers before the game so it's possible I was just on auto-pilot. Cant recall the home game at all, just had to look up the score.

For what it's worth I think he's a talented player who just isn't good enough to do it on a regular basis. A bit like Adam Johnson, hoolahan, or Maloney.

Did well slinging in crosses that night and generally bamboozling the opposition.

What sort of team do you think he should go to mate?

Aidan's injury woes and lack of form are a serious blow to the ASS. I can't see how it will recover.

He'd go down a storm in the MLS. All his tricks. And he's Irish...ish!

Very good post mate .... Incredible if it happened and he became a good player ... Not seeing it though to be honest

Although I should say poor fella is done. Get him off the wage bill asap.
