End of season releases .

[Paul w]

You're basically agreeing with me.

Osman had more than just 'some moments'. His best days are now quite a few years in the past, but he has/had a wonderful football brain, one of the few players capable of a killer pass, not to mention chipping in with many vital goals.

He seems to split opinions because some people seem to hate him personally. Fine, but that has no bearing on him as a footballer. He's been a really good, nay great, player for Everton, and anyone claiming otherwise is talking rot.

Leon Osman was never a great player in any ones imagination,no f.....g way.

Just like Unsworth.

Missed something here... Why's Ossie a snake?

Because he's a kopite that grasses on people.

What???

I hear people saying "you can't just release 8 players" etc..., but when you consider that

Ossie
Pienaar
Hibbo
Gibson
Mattioni

None of them now first eleven.

Add :
McGeady
Kone
Mirallas (I think he's sh1t, I know some don't)

I think we could easily get 8-10 wages off the bill with minimal effect on the 1st team.

We've already got enough quality youths coming through to cover that lot. I don't want to see us signing squad players. Just quality! Only sign player that improve the 1st team or top class kids for the future.


COYB!!!!!

Go to the Mirallas thread read the arguments and make up your own mind,personally I think he is a good player but too much of a liability and we should cut our losses and get rid whilst he may have some worth.

Would like to see how he performs with Ron in charge.

...the grass is artificial???

So Osman's a dirty astroturf then...

 

[deipnosophist]

We've got a fair bit of dead wood to get rid of

I would really like to be proved wrong on this one but you never know when the real Kev is going to turn up and Ron doesn't need that as a starting point, still you never know what the new manager has in his thoughts he may fancy taking him on but like I say I would sooner he had as few problems to deal with, I know he's got his fan's out there but I would prefer to get rid.
