Embarrassing that "are you from the USA stuff" is, if Howard is that bad they wouldn't have to fall back on such childish comments



There is no ex United stigma, never has been, it was widely accepted that Sir Alex was finding it hard to get a replacement for Schmeichel and just didn't know who to buy or how to judge them. Until van der Sar came in he went through about 10 keepers. Howard had one bad Champions League game, just one and we signed him, Evertonians believed United should of handed him more time but they opted to go with Carroll who was also gone not long after. Howard wasn't good enough for United but he was never looked at as a United reject and not good enough for us, until now.
Evertonians Believe United should have given him more time?
I couldn't care less about Man Utd and their players

The only thing I do know is that one of the best mangers in history got rid of him pretty sharpish

When we signed him a mate of mine Utd season ticket holder said to me he's bang average and not good enough
Think he was spot on

I said this 12months ago about Howard
Would he have lasted 9 years at the other regular top 6/7 teams in the prem
 
Read back to 2007 on here.

I take it you're referring to when Howard first signed for us, but isn't it to be expected there would be doubts over a keeper who some perceived (rightly or wrongly) to have been rejected by Man U.

It's an internet forum, and posters tend to express their pleasure or displeasure in extremes. When a player performs well, they're the dog's gonads. When a player performs poorly they're crap (remember the "Neymar is crap thread"?) and certain people will use something like a Man U connection in a kind of "...and another thing" way. Yes, it's ridiculous, but it doesn't happen if a player's doing well.

The forum dates back to 2007.

He's received dogs abuse for years on here.

Even when he was at the top of his game the second he let's in a soft goal he gets slated. It's always been that way. Just look at a few recent posts. 'He was bang average at United therefore he's always been bang average'.

His first few seasons here he was much better than bang average. I do think we need to improve this position going forward as he is past his best.

Pretty much every player gets abuse on here. Look at the abuse Osman has received over the years. Even Barkley gets abuse. It's a footie forum and fans like to vent in the extreme.
 
Most saves in a world cup game. Most saves in a europea league game. PFA first team goalie. The blame he gets on here is uncalled for. Sure he has made a mistake or 2 in the last 2 seasons but he has some great periods as well.

There is truly some anti US BS that many fans can't admit to.

A mistake or two? LOL LOL LOL.

He's been throwing the ball into his own goal every other game for the past two years. Him saving some shots for USA in a game that they lost anyway doesn't change that.
 
Seen the Biff spouting off in the Paper yesterday about how he couldn't care what the fans think, Cheeky nob he's been annoying me for a while now, I think since he had that ridiculous beard , and he's 36 GHTF sharpish Please.
 

Amazing. The only thing he's done in the last ten days is keep a clean sheet against a weak international side, but we still manage to have a hundred or so posts in that time about how terrible he is.
 
I don't give a toss if he plays well for the USA persoanlly, I don't support the USNMT. I support Everton and what players do in Everton shirts is what's really important to me and for the past 18 months he has been utter turd and cost us so many points. Sod his "stats" or whatever, stats shouldn't be how you judge a footballer, you judge them on what you see them doing with your eyes. For all of last season and all of this season so far I've watched him make the same mistakes over and over and at his age he's never going to get any better. It's time for him to be replaced and Martinez needs to stop being a delusional fanny on the topic.
 
No mate not pretty much every player.

We do love a scapegoat on here.

T-Clev was signed as our newest scapegoat...and he can't even stay healthy to receive his slating.

Notice that when he actually showed he was good at football the boo boys left him alone?

Perhaps Howard should try it :)
