Everton target Blackburn Rovers ace N’Zonzi

[Foot Long Hot Dog]

Essien - wow one of my favourite players of the PL era, even now I'd have loved to see him at Goodison

 

[D_Murph]

Who???

He's the 'Opta - obsessed' wizard who had unrivaled success at Spurs and Liverpool!

 

[Neiler]

Bastia. He signed for Lyon

Yeah he was only a kid at the time, Walter Smith also tried to sign Deco.

 

[Bluesnapper]

We tried to sign Essien long before he signed for Chelsea lads, think he was at Lens or somewhere.

Bastia and someone wouldnt give David Moyes the money to get him.

I remember it seemed a lot for us at the time, it was the Sean Davies era, Davey wasnt here that long.

 

[Dj Ashba]

Bastia and someone wouldnt give David Moyes the money to get him.

Thats just absurd.

 

[D_Murph]

Bastia and someone wouldnt give David Moyes the money to get him.

Maybe because he was never an option for an average everton side, especially when Champions League side Lyon offered him a deal.

What can i say?...Passing completion stats seem relevant:

Passing is undoubtedly N’Zonzi’s forte and this is evidenced as he comes out on top statistically. With a pass completion percentage of 81% he is not only Rovers’ most frequent passer of the ball but he is also the most accurate. This accuracy is all the more impressive when considering that over half of his passes are played forwards and therefore into areas typically more heavily guarded by opposition defenders.

It wasn't just Essien either, the same happened with Petr Cech, Scott Parker, the list goes on. If we had the resources other clubs have had over the years I am convinced we would be a regular feature in the top four.

 

[ah11984]

Not his biggest fan, but look on the bright side - he's not Charlie Adam

Good to see you on GOT mate.

So along with his obvious height and strength, Everton are now closing in on Blackburn Rovers answer to Xabi Alonso.
I'm convinced.........Get it sorted moyes.
Haha, Bayern Munich must be kicking themselves after spending £38 million on Javi Martinez.
In your face Jupp Heynckes!

we were also in for ronaldo before he signed for man utd, fee agreed at 2.5 mil ( the summer before he went utd ) but we asked for an extended trial and the deal fell through

this comes from barry silkman who was RPGTV the other month.

 

[Parkender]

Give the kid a chance, Gibson was pure dog muck for United and look at him now.

This.

 

[micknick]

Nzonzi is a very decent player make no mistake.
