Leon Osman

Get over it bang average for f..is sake.

If we'd signed him from say Valencia i'm certain his football brain / ability would've been appreciated more.

This is true this, becase he is a local lad we expected and wanted more, bet when the side had a stinker he was as gutted as the rest of us.

Some of the idiots posting in this thread gives me cancer.

Thanks, Ossie. Great servant, brilliant technical player who scored some great goals. Good lad as well. If he had a bit more pace and strength he'd be top class.

Aye, and if Hibbert had scored 5 goals a season he'd have been mint too. If's and but's. Leon wasn't quick, and had as much strength as a digestive biscuit in a scolding hot cup of tea.

I'd say it's completely the opposite; local lads get far too much leeway and are forgiven much, much easier for appalling performances than foreigners. He's been as good as frauding the supporters for several years now. No ambition, could have easily gone to a lower end Premier League team / Championship side and been the star of the team, but no, happy to take him his wage without having to break into a sweat. That can't be forgiven, for me.

Local? The only thing Skem is local to is Chernobyl, the six fingered sister shaggers.

Who else wanted him.

He was an average player in an average side and the last couple of years he was below average,why people are saying get him coaching amazes me

The problem with Leon is that he followed great Evertonian icons like Pembridge, Gemill,Rowett etc. My god he wasn't fit to lick their boots.

So to all his critics, if you remember his immediate predecessors you must agree he was a massive improvement and despite playing through crippling injuries he at least deserves a modicum of respect.

I also genuinely don't get the coaching shouts. We've wasted enough money on the clown, see ya later Leo.

Derby wanted him once 15 years ago. He's so crap that even the papers didn't bother to link him away from us. All you need is 3 good games as an Everton player and the papers are trying to sell you.

 

[AndyGray]

I never really warmed to him. I guess it's too late now.

Who else wantedPl hm.

Geesh are some of you really fans? 'fans'? I like Ossie, he played for my team. He did it a lot, and at times was amongst the best of what we had. Sure he wasn't Messi or Pele, and sure he was paid a great deal of money for doing a hobby - but he played for my team. Better than I could have and better, I suspect, than the rest of us could have. He has more England cap(s) than any of us, yes?
