Junior

[ToxtethBlue]

He had a decent first half, dropped off massively in the second half. I thought they both did a good job against Swansea.

I thought Osman went AWOL mate.

Swansea mate.

Watch the game again and educate yourself. Osman is one of the great sultans of Everton.

Erm, what lad??

Hes a bit poo.

 

[ToxtethBlue]

Easily one of our better players, always has been. Made more tackles than anyone in that game and was his usual busy self.

Thought this was a Junior thread - must be mistaken.

He hasn't played a senior game for us. The reserves and pre season games only tell you so much. The fact that the conversation has drifted to the players Junior has to replace to get a game and whether they deserve to be dropped can be no big surprise surely?

Swansea had a lot of chances for very little posession. That tells me someone isn't doing their job.

Osman/Neville abuse is frankly embarrassing. Osman especially, who is a quality player and criminally underrated by the plebs on this site.

Did or did not Newcastle score because Osman lost posession cheaply?

Ha 90% passing accuracy. HUM-BUL PYE anyone?

Hioward was beaten very easily. It was one heavy touch by Osman, you can't blame the entire course of the game on one bad touch 10 yards into our own half.

Passing accuracy or shooting accuracy only tells half the story. If you went by passing accuracy then Joe Allen would be the best player in the world but the fact is he never finds killer passes. Shooting accuracy would make Anichebe look like he had a bad game against Swansea but I think he was one of the best players like

 

[Baines' left foot]

Stats aren't everything. Try telling that to the kopites who probably believe they have potentially the best midfield in the world with Joe "Xavi" Allen and Lucas "Yaya Toure" Leiva.

There is definitely a positive correlation between the quality of a midfielder and his passing accuracy though, wouldn't you say?
