Rook, do you think he's good enough to get into our starting eleven?

With a fully fit starting 11, probably. With the current MASH unit that we currently have definitely. He's best as an attacking LCM he could play LW, RW and Striker if needed. Do I think he will though, not sure, Moyes brings in newbies slow and given that (if) he's going to only be here for 3 months if we take 2 months bring him in slow then he might only be of use if we go deep into Europa.

It would be a good piece of business to get him for say 10M US. First of all it would prevent Peanut from holding us hostage with unreasonable contract demands and if that does happen we'd have adequate replacement as peanut is worth about 8-12M UK.

So thats 7pm over here right? Not long til we hopefully have our answer. :)
 
??? There would not be a press conference if it was to say no to Everton. That would have happened ages ago with our club being quietly told to look elsewhere.

Sorry, Rook, I have to disagree. Right now for sure he'd be a potential starter. But with everyone fit, who would he displace?The 6 midfield spots would be filled by 6 of the following 8: Neville, Arteta, Fellaini, Cahill, Bily, Pienaar, Yakubu, Saha; leaving 2 of those on the bench. So which 3 of those 8 would Donovan displace? He'd be on the bench with Ossie and Rodwell.
 

They could be annouching hes going to Spurs.

I saw Harry at Heathrow carrying hotdogs. TRUE STORY.

Anyway, 5 minutes untill the pressy?? Lets hope its good news, bodies is what we need and this boy can play a bit.
 
I see him as cover for Pienaar/Billy and Osman.

The fact hes versatile and can cover upfront and centrally is a bonus.

No doubht he has something to offer but i think the threemonth thing is all worng for us!
