Interesting read this. Also seems, Moyes made it pretty clear to Saha that his days in an Everton shirt were numbered - could be reading a bit too far into it though.

THE moment I arrived at Everton in 2008, I felt the boundless passion and enthusiasm for the club from everyone there. The respect for the club’s history, its culture and values must be expressed by each player on the pitch. Jimmy (Comer), the masseur, has the Everton club crest tattooed on his calf. The motto reads: “Nil Satis Nisi Optimum (Nothing But The Best is Good Enough).†Their greatest player was Dixie Dean, top scorer of the 1920a.

Goodison is a special stadium which has hosted a number of top flight matches.

You can feel the spirit of many great sportsmen when you go on the pitch.

It’s a healthy club and I always felt the players were ambitious and wanted to improve.

Its foundations are based on group effort as opposed to individuality. The team shows fighting spirit, Everton is an honest place and people are straight with you.

ON the morning of January 31, 2012 a series of phone calls with my agent confirmed that Spurs’ interest in me had become a reality.

When I discussed my options with David Moyes...when I spoke to my agent, Jonathan Barnet, to clarify the conditions... When I assessed the challenge and made my mind up...it all felt like the thinking and questions happened in one hour.

It’s 10am: my phone battery is already on 60%. I was supposed to join my team-mates to prepare for an evening game against Man City, but instead a quick meeting was arranged with the manager.

Noon: I’m home packing what I can and heading for London in a Smart car. Lol!...

I’m lost and I can’t even call anyone. I could end up with no time left to sign for my new team. I had forgotten how long a medical can take, especially with my record.

Papers signed and medical done in three hours. It had been a bittersweet 16 hours of tension, stress, relief, scans, check-ups, phone calls, excitement and uncertainty. What a crazy day!

I like Louis, although towards the end of his career he did seem to swan about a bit didn't he. Probably in protest of having no strike partner. Still, he scored some cracking goals.
 

Seems fair enough to me, was time for him to move on he new it and Moyes new it.
Is he out of contract in the summer ?

He injured his jaw telling the ghost writer his storys

"And this one time at finch farm I injured my leg"

"And this one time walking the shop my knees exploded"
