Distin & Neville - Contract Extensions

No because his replacement played very well! When your defence has a soft centre & no height Jh can be sold in JAN for me he offers nothing -slow out of position & never going to win a header in the box! !
 

I want him to go as soon as simply because he will never be a bit-part player. Under Moyes he is our captain, and this season one of our first midfield picks. Which is simply outrageous as his legs went years ago.

I'm not blind, I can see that he offers stuff off the pitch and on it he's an experienced defender who reads the game excellently. But his legs can't keep up and he is offensively useless. He wouldn't get into central midfield for Wigan, so if we think we're even a top 7 team then he can't be playing there.

Of course we have a small squad and injuries but Neville's a high earner who can't keep up with the pace of the game. As a utility player, wage aside, I don't mind but he's too big around Everton for want of a better word; he can't be a bit part player. I just want him to go and Jags to be the new captain. But I know it's not going to happen yet. *sigh

Spot on. Genuinely don't think he'd get into most championship midfields on ability.
 
Meh. If he was strictly cover, then it's a good deal. But agree with above, he won't be cover, he'll be playing quite a bit.

Crap bait that lad. It doesn't even make sense...

Distin's fitter (physically I mean, there is no effective sexual comparison as he's in a Godly group of 1) than most of our squad even at his age. And I'm fairly sure he could outrun a predator missile.
