Leon Osman will be granted a testimonial some time this season in response to his contribution to the club since he made his debut back in 2000. Osman has made 346 appearances for Everton and netted 51 goals, as well as having loan spells at Carlisle United and Derby County earlier in his career.
 


....I'm sure by the time it comes around he'll be back in favour. I watched the little fella coming through the ranks, A&B team games at Bellfield on a Saturday morning, graduating to the 1st team via Youth Cup winners medal. I'm not a fan of testimonials in the modern era as premiership players don't need the dosh, but he's been a fabulous servant and that deserves recognition (as long as monies go to deserving causes).
 
It is fully deserved, he has been a great servant to the club. His legs just dont agree with being over 30 anymore.

I was in Derby living and working during his loan spell and they absolutely loved him. They wanted him and he could have easily joined and been the big d1ck of the team. But he came back determined to fight for his place and prove himself with us in the prem. Lots wrote him off due to his size but for me he made the grade and some of our best footballing performances over the past 5/6 seasons had him heavily involved.

Well in Ossie
 

Well deserved for Ossie, great servant to the club. Needs to pick his form up though, he's had 3 stinkers this season already
