Did a job when needed and scored some cracking goals, but like most of Moyes' players he should have been shipped off years earlier than he was.

Careful mate, Ossie is lurking around every corner, waiting to STRIKE at a moments notice

I genuinely hate him

Odd that!
He always speaks very highly of you mate.

The reason people gave Osman stick is because he was a flat track bully so to speak; played well against the weaker teams but against the so called better teams he was basically a passenger.

So a decent squad player then? further backing up what @Timak was saying.

To be fair that's some decent footage of Osman you've found there, he must have been on his 'A' game that day.

8 pages of a radio interview it seems no-one bothered to listen to.

At home against Manchester United in 2010, when we won 3-1. As good as any midfield performance i've seen from an Everton player. There was plenty of times he put in great performances against the big teams.

People gave him stick because he was small and slow. But he was a very good technical player, and more important than a lot of people realise.

Aside from the grass thing I think the reason most people dislike Osman is that he completely summed up our Moyes years. Capable of moments of absolute beauty, usually solid, 6 or 7/10 seasons but never a WINNER.

Fortunately though, we managed to win all those trophies while he was here, because everybody else stepped up against the better teams didn't they.

They didn't?

Oh.

 

[jaycee]

He basically matched the Everton sides throughout the last few decades, pretty much anonymous for the most part,occasional flash of brilliance but ultimately amounted to very little

I hoe we do not have a vacancy for his waste of space.
