Baines

[davek]

Probably bollocks like all the rest, but a few Celtic supporters on the Huddleboard website were adamant that Celtic had been contacted by Everton recently to prpose a Baines-Scott McDonald swap. Be interesting to see if Baines gets a run out tomorrow.

Regardless of the above, I think Moyesy might have to box clever like this in the next few weeks: take from departments we have a bit of cover in and boost midfield/attack. Not Ideal, but then we're not in the postion to do much else.

Probably the worst rumour I've heard, it won't happen. I don't even think HB would swap Baines for Scott McDonald and that's saying something.

It will be interesting to see Baines tomorrow, he'll probably have to play left midfield so maybe it will suit him. He's got the attacking qualities, he's got pace and I'm sure Moyes will have been working with him since Pienaar's injury. I hope he gives a good account of himself.

I have a feeling Baines will be one of our star performers this season.

someone mustve posted that God-Awful rumour on football rumours yesterday or the day before

Some idiot was saying that we were exchanging Anichebe and Baines for Scott McDonald.

Theres ntohing in the papers, just some silly fan rumour, or a person seeing that rumour and emphasizing it.

That is a polite way of describing him. If we sign him, i'll rip up my season ticket.

I thought it sounded a bit "exotic". I'd like to see Baines do it this season, but I wouldn't be surprised (or that arsed for that matter) if he was involved in a swap deal. I honestly think Moyes might use whatever cash he has and go for trades before the transfer window closes.

I dont see why he would swap baines, if he really did want to swap people he could swap VDM, Valente, Hibbert - much worse/older players than him.

He is entitled to say it dom. He is wrong though! Cant we just sell him to celtic instead of getting a bad player in exchange

If Baines runs the show tomorrow will you praise him?

VDM - you'd get a bottle of vodka and a whoemeal loaf in return for that waster.

Valente - too old and too well paid at Everton to shift him (neither would I want to, i think he's very solid).

Hibbert - would get a nosebleed leaving Liverpool!
