When we were first interested we were all banging on about 442 and needing a mobile holder. He's definitely mobile and looks combatative (is that a word? if not it should be) in the defensively inferior French league. His distribution always seemed to be ok, and positive in the main. Simple things done well.

Some might argue we're not looking to play 442 anymore, and Pip's form in mf surprised me certainly. But I'd still like Pip at RB in the absense of a quality experienced signing there and I wouldn't want to burn Rodders out by starting him all campaign in mf. M'Bia and a young RB like Naughton and we have a hell of a lot of options.

A lot of conjecture like, I'm not expert on nowt :blink:


Nice one mate, i agree with a lot of that. (y)
 

Yep, great post, agree totally, especially that we can't put too much responsibilty on Rodders at this stage.
 

French news reports state that Everton have sent a delegation to France to sign Stephane Mbia.

Everton have been linked to the Cameroon international for over a year and it looks likely that he could finally be on his way to Goodison Park for 12 mill euro.

According to the Parisian club Everton would be spent on the offensive to recover the defensive midfielder M'Bia Rennes. English emissaries is currently at Rennes to discuss the transfer. With a very heavy discharge provision of 12 million, rennais seems to be moving towards the Premier League rather than the Canebière.
