You're right, we are favourites.

[when i score we riot]

Huh, the norwegian article has a little paragraph at the end: http://www.vg.no/sport/fotball/norsk/artikkel.php?artid=10064304

"Everton er den klubben som har sett Forren mest, men kom likevel ikke med noe konkret bud på midtstopperen. Tyske, belgiske og nederlandske klubber har også vist interesse for Moldes midtstopper."

"Everton have been watching Forren a lot, but never actually made an offer for the centre back ...."

Not a quote from anyone though, so it might still be on. Then again, bluefox says it aint, so i'd be very surprised. The sentence comes from the original article by the guy who interviewed Solskjær for the regional paper.

Aye, but he's the one who made the tweets, and they've followed him immediately after. Certainly doesn't confirm we are signing him, but i'd say it confirms interest.

A non-update for you.

Age six years?

Heintinga's performance in the last game was so woeful it seems like it might be time to give Duffy a chance. You have to imagine Duffy wouldn't have let that bounce. He is pretty young for a CB though -- I know people have a go at Moyes for not playing youth but the average CL contending team doesn't often start a 21 year old at CB. To bring this back to Forren I'm not sure, at 24, he'd be first choice either right now either although he has more experience (albeit in Norway).

That said I'd take 1.5m for Heitinga at this point (if we could transfer his wages to Holtby for instance I think that would make a huge amount of sense).

holtby has spurs or the rs written all over him sadly

Don't worry mate Osman is twice the player and Barkley will get a game in 2016.

What about his father?

How many player sign for clubs that aren't the teams they support. It doesn't matter who his old man watches. If his old man didn't support Everton nobody would give any credibility to the holtby shiz. This is the Forren thread anyway. Which incidentally is equally Jarg filled.

unless you're robbie keane, in which case every club you sign for is a boyhood club.
