How do we fit Tim Cahill into the team now?

The drawback for other clubs would be his tendency to fly off and leave his club to play in tournaments such as the Pacific and District Sunday League Memorial Trophy.

I love Tim, both as a player and as a decent human being. However it seems that Tim may actually be a hindrance to the best way Everton plays (based on the majority of opinions expressed here).

He is at his finest form at the moment and should command a good price. Potentially Everton can make enough money from his sale to buy a decent striker.

This would be a win for Cahill fans who, like me, wants to see him play as part of a starter team; rather than sitting on the bench.

What the hell are you talking about?
 
Yes, I agree. Sometimes it's time to just let go and were at the crossroads here and he should just go.
POPCORN.
I want to have great memories of him and not be sullied by the inevitable downturn when he returns.
 
It's not really a problem is it, you've got one of the top goalscorers in the league to 'force' into your team.

There are lots of options, people just seem to insult Cahill by insisting he can't play in a variety of positions. The only major limitation he has is that he's **** at defending. Frank Lampard's **** at defending. Tim could play any of the attacking positions to a reasonable standard.

He'd be decent on the left, I wouldn't mind seeing him given a go out there. His link up play's decent and he's a powerful runner with the ball, if not tricky. We've scored quite a few goals this season already where he starts on the left, lays it off and then charges into the box for the header. The only danger would be leaving Baines even more exposed, I can't really see Cahill tracking back and closing down as much as Pienaar does.

To be honest I'd rather see us go even more attacking and play him as the main attacking member of a midfield three. There aren't any rules against playing lots of attacking players, that's how you hammer teams. If we actually managed to sign the wing forward that Moyes apparently wants now, stick him up front with Saha and Beckford and play Cahill in front of Arteta and Fellaini.

If you think about the top teams, none of them would be worried about getting 'caught out' with a lack of defensive minded players, they're more concerned with scoring ****loads of goals. They even get criticised quite often for fielding a defensive midfielder at all. We have better attacking players than 75% of the league, why not use them all?

I see what you did there.

Even though it's invisible ;)
 
I don't think he would want to play for another club in England or Europe. He'd rather run his contract down and go back to Australia to end his playing career there. Could he ever contemplate turning out for a team playing AGAINST Everton ?
 
Erm.......*makes noise that Tim Allen made at the start Home Improvement*
