funny thing is, hes acheived about as much as bily, not really suited to premiership(losing possesion etc)but scores occasional screamer, bily was vilified and royston seems to have achieved cult status! at least bily was a nice chap and seemed to do what was expected of him in training etc

Fair comment , Lad
 
Drenthe was very productive for EFC in terms of goals and assists. He was,along with Jelavic, undoubedtedly our most talented player. He was also great on the ball, pacy and imaginative. Qualities that no other forward has at the Club.

He is light years better than Billy so lets not distrort History too much. And as he was on a free transfer he was in our price range.

I would'nt mind if we could replace him with Moses or even Hoillet but that aint going to happen because we have no money.

And as we can see he is being replaced by McFadden.

Rumours are this lad likes the party life to and the weed.
 
I see he didn't go to Liverpool then.

The elephant roaring around the drawing room knocking things over is still this though: he was ill-disciplined all through his stay at Everton, apparently. He's punted, however, when we were all hands to the pumps in a SF with no Pienaar to call upon. (By the way, the defence of this now is the argument that we would inevitably have got tvvated in the final by Chelsea anyway, so no harm done!!!)

Great judgement by the Three Times LMA award winner. Davie knows best.

No , DK , The Elephant my mucka , is , the MISTAKE was , tryna be all understanding the first time .

In retrospect , we SHOULDA shown him the door .

However , being us - a PROPER Club ; ALLIED to our own recarious position , meant we never .

However , it WAS by the Semi , impacting upon Squad discipline ..

Id ask why you dont get thos bit , but then , You DO , so no point really ...

As I said before ..

There ARE Sticks to Beat Koff Moyles / Koff Kenwrong with ..

This just isnt one of them , Mucka

As I've said before mate: you either have a disciplined squad or you dont. How can we be expected to accept a situation where Moyes has let this feller run riot all season and then gives him the bullet on the day we needed him most.

I'd have respected Moyes if he just took a chance on him early in the season then marginalised him and benched him without getting on the pitch for the rest of the season if he'd been turning up late/been disruptive. That would be consistent at least; because you and I know there's no other player Moyes has given that sort of license to fcuk around since he turned up a decade ago. Why was Drenthe given all that time before being finally disciplined? The straw that broke the camel's back argument for that SF just doesn't stack up.

Moyes made a mistake. How huge or small we cant ever know. But it was a mistake.
 
Will you to just get a room FFS..........I miss Drente , the crazy loon
 
I'm sure Royston spends many an hour sat alone pondering his actions. He must be aware of how he self-destructs so often. It's how he is wired and is his cross to bear.

I wish him well, for what it's worth.

I'm sure Moyes did all he could - but when you are dealing with a wild one you can only do so much. I don't blame him for this one.

Seriously .. BECAUSE he was unique ..

1 ; He werent our Player .. Thus , we didnt know him ..Plus , the Incidents , as it were , were in Holland , thus diff to substantiate - dismiss ...

2 ; The Madrid thing . This , as was Benaga , them saying ; We havent forgotten Gravesen . Politics aside , damn nice of them , as it goes ...

3 ; We had Saha an no-one else , so there WAS an element of self-interest , I aint denying that ..

4 ; He just ran out of rope ...
