Had the oppurtunity to see Landon on the Letterman show the other night...

It was a lot of fun, but it got me thinking...
With footy being placed in the spotlight in the states during the WC,
and Landon becoming a household name overnight...

Might he have reservations about coming to Everton, or am I just over-thinking this?

He might do, but we will all realise that he is in fact NOT Lionel Messi and just a very good, very valuable squad member at Everton.

SI.com: You've just rejoined the L.A. Galaxy, which has lost only one game in MLS all season. The European transfer window is upon us. Would you be interested in transferring to a European team?

Donovan: I'm interested in anything that comes my way. I would always listen to any offers or any interest. The beauty of that now is I don't have to worry about it affecting me or how I play or my mindset. If that comes up one day and we have a game the next day, then I can deal with something one day and be completely ready for the game the next day. So I'll take it as it comes. My guess would be that we'll hear something from some folks at some point, but if not I love being here and I love being part of this team, and that's not going to change.

SI.com: Do you know of any offers on the table at this point?

Donovan: Not yet, no.

Nothing enlightening at all but just for added banter in this here thread.

:lol:

Good find mate, hes coming then!
 
SI.com: Last one: Are you glad you won't have to hear a vuvuzela for a long, long time?

Donovan: Yeah, I am. [Laughs] Now that I'm home watching I can hear it so clearly. When I'm in the other room at Home Depot and the game's about to start, they go to the announcers and immediately you hear that numb tone in the background. It's ridiculous. I heard also that some people started blowing them in baseball games, so I'm hoping it doesn't catch on here.

Certainly isn't Messi since Donovan actually performed under pressure at the WC and bagged 3 in 4 games.

messi = fail

Neville, commentating for EvertonTV for this morning’s 1-0 win over Sydney FC, was asked by a viewer whether he thought Everton should sign the USA captain on a permanent basis. “Definitely” was Neville’s reply, “The World Cup was probably a bad thing for Everton, his price will have gone up by £5 or 6 million!” The Everton skipper went on to say “I’ve spoken to Landon and I know for a fact that he wants to come back here”.

now that's interesting...
 
I understand that he would look at all options but I've said this since day one. Landon was affected by Everton. Once that's happened, as we all know, you're hooked.

Landon's hooked. Guaranteed
 

Phill Neville was doing special coments for everton tv yesterday and he sad he has spoken to Landon and that Landon wants to come back.

Edit: which is pretty much what the above posts link says.
