Alan Smith.

[neville]

I am going to go against the flow on this one and say i wouldnt mind seeing him sign for us mainly for two reasons.

The lad definitely has talent and has proven it at the highest level of leauge football, i think he has lost wis way a bit biuncing around the franchises of Man U and the Barcodes, i think the Everton atmosphere would do wonders for him and Moyes's coaching would allow him to be the player we all thought he would be. Remember it was'nt long ago a lot of people were slating Kenwright here for bidding 7.5mill for Smith saying we were being unrealistic.

Secondly one thing that has become apparent to me as the season has ended and injuries have taken there toll is that what we have made up for in the skill and techniuqe dept this season we have lossed in, grittyness, doggidness and tenacity, this has been specifically appaent when cahill has been missing from the team, Smith has always been tenacious and willing to have a go untill the last.

I think he could be a usefull addition just as Jags has proved to be but like Jags i wouldnt pay over 4.5 mill for him!

As a United Fan Smithy was a good lad but was unlucky with injury. Gives 100% everytime he would be great for Everton under Moyes with regular first team football

Anyway off to watch the Match

He's garbage. We should get Milner. He's a Moyes-type...if we still have a Moyes by the summer like.

I think we should get Milner, good young englishman, the type of player Moyes likes....

...Id also get smith, he's got commitment, will run until he is de-hydrated, he plays with passion, and he's a striker - not a left winger like newcastle try to play him!!!

I've always liked his effort but where does he play, I don't rate him high enough to overtake Vaughanchiebe. He was crap in the midfield plus I really havent seen him play since Riise suprised him by unexpectedly smashing a free kick toward the correct goal and breaking his leg. So he might be damaged goods as well.

I agree, Smith is no longer a class player if we had him during his Leeds' day that's a different matter but he is no good to us he is way too old to our liking.

These player looks alot more useful than Smith as they are still in there prime year.
