Leon Osman

[Walken]

Mirallas was about to sign a new contract with us but when he done his hamstring Everton withdrew it to wait for the result of the scans. He was not impressed with that one bit.

@chicoazul is that what you heard and why Arsenal are sniffing around like a baghead through a bag of rubbish.

whenever analysing information, the most important thing is your source

Kennedy, McAleny, Henen, Ledson, probably more that I can't think of off the top of my head - I'd rather see all of them before Osman at this point.

Baines would've never crossed it in first time. Even if so - straight forward, literally, pass in a super short distance. Hardly a "lovely ball", or even a moderately tough pass to pick out.

Even if you count that as a positive influence, remind me what he did afterwards? I remember him receiving the ball by the centre and dwelling and passing back, about 5 times. Once was when he could've literally turned and tried to be more influential as there was no one around - he just took a few steps towards our own goal and gave it back to the CB.

Top blue though, isn't he?

I'm not against saying he's played well when he has, but one swallow does not a summer make - the fact he managed that amazingly inspirational pass to Baines is completely overshadowed by he fact he then proceeded to do absolutely nothing all game. And that's his usual performance, it's not a one off - he'd maybe, probably, if he's lucky enough, make some kind of moderate and simple contribution to an attack about once a game, at most, but then do nothing. It's been like that for a long time now.

Plus ffs how can you not work on your strength your whole career?!

Osman has never worked strength training? Please tell me how you know this or detail of any of Osman and everton fc training programmes.

It's like we actually don't want to ever achieve anything. Another year of watching this no mark getting easily out muscled off the ball and being crap in general now.

How can we expect our better players to stay when they see dross like Osman being signed on irrespective of merit ? Will be worth it to see just how dire this excuse for a footballer is in 2016.

Clearly none of them are ready for top level football besides the fact that none of them play in the same position that Osman does.

Osman hasn't been ready for top level football since forever

Can imagine he based this on the fact he is no stronger than when he was a toddler.

I forgot about that 'lovely' pass which he played during the Burnley match. No opposition near him, he collected a difficult 8yd pass kicked at a moderate pace, excellently turned and laid a 10yd pass inbetween nobody. That was what probably earned him his contract.

He's been a vital member of a top 7 squad since he came into the team.

You clearly didn't click on the link I provided or watch the match at the time.

Kick in the teeth this lads

 

[Eric Djemba-Djemba]

Martinez is popcorning us.

I was there, I have also clicked the link, to be fair I was probably a little bit generous to him in my description.

Cool, that's funny. But he shouldn't make claims of knowledge regarding Osman and Everton fc training programmes. Because the sum total of Your and his knowledge about this subject can be scribbled over a mink's ballbag.

You clearly have trouble with either spatial awareness or figures then, or maybe you are deliberately being disingenuous?

You know that he's tosh mate. Just say it.

You are obviously never going to agree on the fact Osman is a poor player, you see things in him the majority of us don't.

I have never heard this saying before, dafuqs a Mink?
