I was having a think about Everton in comparison to other teams and to me Everton seem ego-less for lack of a better word. To use an example i'll pick Liverpool FOOTBALL CLUB, big name in football, loads of media coverage, fans think they should be winning the league trophies etc, B-rod giving it the big i am and we are etc. Compared to Everton, i think of us as a sleeping giant, roll back the clock we were the bollocks but we're realistic about where we are as a club, we turn up, work hard and try to progress, we're very industrial. The media don't give us our deserved attention but i prefer that as it's proper boss when we turn over the Sky Six.
It got me thinking of why we're like that as a club, Moyes is very good at not getting carried away infront of the cameras, he knows the score, one game at a time. The players seem like a good bunch, i sense there is excellent team spirit in the camp and overall i think players enjoy plying their trade at our family club, i got wondering about the big ego's in camp, i'm not confusing having character for a big head i mean just outright bad atitudes. Anichebe is a good example, i've heard/read he's hard work at Everton, i've witnessed his attitude first hand and disliked him for it, that said he's been banging them in recently and think if he carries on winning over the fans (me included as i'm critical of him) i think he might actually enjoy his footie career. Drenthe came, had the talent and proved to be a top tit head and that was that he was out the door, a few players have done similar and all got ****ed off.
Other than Victor, our lads come across as a top bunch of talented, hard working players and i love them for it, i loved it when Jelavic and Fellaini celebrated vs Utd, same again last night when Mirallas scored, Naisy was right over there and the team ethic looked brilliant. Realistically, we've got some class players who all come across as being really humble lads, Baines could've been a tit this transfer window if he fancied it and being a big name in English football would've got the media showcase involved, we've seen it happen with Dempsey, Tevez, Rooney, RVP etc over the years but it seems rare at our club.
I really like the current Everton in terms of the team and manager (not the board ffs and keep that stuff in its own thread please) because of how we go about or business and ofcourse the quality team Moyes has built over the years, the only thing i get pissed about is lack of investment really but that's for another thread.
Does anyone agree or have anything to add?
