contract till 2019. on 300k a week?. Can't see it unless he wants to lose out on 20+ mill.

....agree, it's hard to see it happening unless United offer him a mega deal to leave and even then he might fancy following Beckham to USA. It's good to see him and his lad at Goodison.

Can't see him coming to Goodison in any sort of meaningful way. When his deal with Man Utd runs out he will still command a big wage packet, probably in America.
I'm hopeful that by the time he is at the end of his current contract we will be too good a team to buy someone who is past their best.

Maybe he could come back 'Just to train' with the lads like.

Sort of, but he stands on the terraces and doesn't sit in the family enclosure.

well he's hardly likely to take his 42lb carp to a game is he?

I voted yes, but really it depends.... wouldn't want him massively unbalancing our wage structure and unsettling the current squad for that reason. Also wouldn't want him to be a guaranteed starter every game at the expense of one of our young attacking maestros. No question he'd be a massive upgrade on Kone or Naismith though - and would generate tons of publicity (hopefully for all the right reasons).

Everton is in his blood as much as any of us and I reckon he massively regrets some of the stunts he pulled when he left. Would be happy to see him make up for it by playing with passion and driving the team to trophy-winning form. It seems obvious to me that he's not going to do that at Utd, so why not here?

I don't think he is past it I think playing for us would ignite a fire that will.last two seasons Atleast. The only problem is I promised my 15 year old self never to forgive and I'm going to keep it, the judas. Don't want him.

Many grannies in Liverpool are smiling at the thought.

Lowste · December 10, 2015

Simple yes for me

Black Belt Jones · December 10, 2015

Don't know - He's playing so unbelievably badly that he wouldn't command a place in our side. That being said, it doesn't seem right that such an intelligent player is stinking the place out game after game - so maybe Roberto would get him going again.

Prem midfield / attack is a tough place to be if you're out of condition, and he does look finished from that point of view.

Dithering Dougie · December 10, 2015

Does anyone think he could play the "holding role"?

Why did he jump ship at the first opportunity then?
