Oumar Niasse or Francis Jeffers?

[ijjysmith]

Erm, even Brett Angell was better than Niasse, and that's saying something.

Christ, even Alex Nyarko would be preferable.

That would be a better thread actually.

Jeffers was decent first time round.

 

[Conspiracy-theorist]

FFS... I reckon I'd be better than Niasse...

Mod's should have the power to blitz a thread like this into the internet afterlife

 

[Deggo]

He's played 2 games.

2 games.

FFS. Can we not wait and see a little here?

That'll be 2 games too many

Denis straqualursi would be more acceptable

Denis straqualursi would be more acceptable

The Straq was boss.

I'd still have him in the squad now.

 

[Eggs]

This Poll is a farce.

.....perhaps the more accurate comparison is with Straqualasie.

 

[Caolam]

Jeffers was a real person. Niasse is a figment of Martinez' imagination.

 

[bitter-no-better]

defo an end of season thread this one.

.....perhaps the more accurate comparison is with Straqualasie.

I think that would be an insult to big Straq, Eggs

(assuming it is Niasse you are suggesting we compare him with and not Franny )

Actually I can think of no one comparable to Niasse over the period of time he has been here lol

He is a one of and no mistake.

....yep, you're probably right. Mo Johnson was a spent force when we paid good money for him but even he scored in a Derby.

Tbf on the OP Jeffers was as bad as Niasse has been here at every club he played for after us, including us again.

 

[jaycee]

Why are you comparing an Everton success story to Niasse?

Jeffers was fantastic before he had his head turned - there's no comparison to be had here.

Niasse is even beyond Madar territory at this point.

How very dare you bad mouth mikel madar he had flowing locks before Ginola could tie bootlaces he was our muskateer

 

[ricer10]

McFadden option ?

 

[Toffeelover]

What is the point of this thread comparing two players like those.

 

[summerisle]

Or Rod Belfitt and Bernie Wright.

Everton Results
By 1972 the wheels were coming off Harry Catterick's glory team of the 1960s. Catterick himself was in ill-health, the team were under-performing and nobody could score goals. In February of that year we played Walsall in the FA Cup. We won 2-1 but the Midlander's centre-forward caught the eye of someone at Goodison and - so the story goes - with Catterick in hospital, trainer Harry Cooke signed the player.

Step forward our saviour Bernie Wright. There was only one problem. He was dreadful.
He played 7 games that season (plus one as sub) and scored a solitary goal. He managed one more goal the next season in 3 more starts.
But it wasn't just his total lack of ability that captured the imagination - there was also his appearance and personality. He was quite simply a very large scary-looking nutter with big hair.

He frightened not only his opponents but his team-mates and managerial staff as well.
There are loads of stories about him. A brave diving header against Sheffield Utd saw him kicked in the head. He brushed himself off and got on with the game but Eddie Colquhoun, the offending centre-half, had to go off with a broken toe. On being told that he'd been dropped for a game, he chased coach Stewart Imlach around the training ground whilst Catterick locked himself in his car. He turned up drunk for training just before Christmas 1972 and then disappeared until just before the new year. This last misdemeanour was one too many and after only 11 months at the club he had his contract terminated.

He ended up back at Walsall before bizarrely, in later life, qualifying as a referee. Y
