Everton FC Squad 2013/14

[bluestevon]

If we could have any GK in the world, I'd want Julio Ceasar.

good keeper but salary would be a huge problem, think hes on 80-90k per week

Yeah, it was pure fantasy on my part. If money was no object, I'd have him here in a heartbeat

Think it's a disgrace he didn't win GK of the year last year.

[BlueOggster]

I quite like Fraser Forster from Celtic...definitely one for the future!!

the best keeper rarely does, think most just look at goals conceded and if your not in the lowest 5-6 your discounted, whereas anyone with a brain realizes that some of the better keepers play for md to lower table teams and are under siege their lol

still remember soime stat about valdez for barca about 3 years ago stating he has the lowest save percentage of any keeper yet he won the spanish keeper of the year title, let in something like 35 -40% of all shots on target or something ridiculous like that

Keep everyone and spunk all of our available transfer money on a top goalscorer, simples!

 

[canuckblue]

Definitely need a new keeper.
Get rid of Heitinga, we're OK at the back otherwise with Duffy and maybe Stones surely getting more playing time (assuming Baines stays).
Get rid of Osman in midfield. That's regardless of Fellaini is sold. Unload Gueye as well.
Up front, I'd like to see Vellios get more of a chance. I feel Jelavic will turn it around as well.
Basically, I'm of the opinion we're only a couple of additions away from kicking on this season.

Keep hold of all of our players and we'l probably have a tenner for transfer funds.

 

[andy4efc]

I don't think he played well for U21 at all. Nevermind being backup of Howard.

Assuming you mean Springthorpe, nowhere near the first team squad, Mucha would have been fine back up though.

Vellios is poor, been very, very average for the u21's and he's been in the best team in the section. Half arsed most of the time. If we're gonna give a u21 striker a chance, give it to Chris Long.

That's if things went absolutely perfectly for us.

 

[faldo]

Begović (Given)
Coleman - Jags (Duffy) - Distan (stones) - Baines (Garbutt)

Gibson (Osman) - Defour (Lundstram)

Mcmanaman (Kennedy) - Fer - Mirrales (Pinear)

Rooney (Jelavic)


assuming fellaini leaves for the reputed 24 million and theirs a influx of 10 from the tv deals as well as a few mill hear and their plus what we can get for anichebe, heitinga, howards, naismith (say 10 mill max for them all) etc, using the surplus tv money and loss of some big earners to fund the new boys and move rooney to around 125-140k per week

Who's this pin ear guy you talk off?

 

[Joao Moutinho]

Agreed.

But I don't think any of it is unrealistic
