If we want to give him real competition then mikael landreau has come to a mutual agreement to free him from his contract after a fall-out with the coach. May be worth a look.

I think he'll go eventually (as we've dropped too many points already for CL - yeah 3 points off but I just think we'll struggle to be that close with a tricky December!) and we need clubs like Zenit bidding to drive up his price.

Dembele is top notch - he would have been a brilliant player for us working with Felli! I remember a couple on here saying we'd missed a trick when Fulham picked him up and they certainly weren't wrong.

...and what use would he be?! He's not going to be able to reach to the top of the cupboards when doing his chores!!!

I'm sooooooooooo changing my letter to Santa!

We are much more balanced and effective team with Gibson in.

Was hoping for someone like MK Dons or Coventry away for the ticket allocation but hopefully will be able to get a ticket for either of these.

Agreed but the extreme views of peteo are brilliant! It seems they're the same for Lescott though! I wonder what he thinks of Rooney?

I hope we've got a sell-on clause! If he and Moyes can put what happened behind them then he and jags could still give us at least 3 quality years. Loan to buy - in the summer he's in his last 12months.

He's on the wind-up.

I knew you'd get it in first... I was getting impatient!!! Sorry mikeO!

@Everton: Everton (to face Arsenal): Howard, Hibbert, Baines, Gibson, Jagielka ©, Jelavic, Naismith, Distin, Osman, Pienaar, Fellaini. #COYB

Re. Bent... Local rumours are that Bent has had John Terry esq. relations with a teammates mrs! May I emphasise the word RUMOURS!!!

Maybe you and DK need to change your initiation theme tune... 'Wanna be in my gang?' by G.Glitter puts the kids off joining!

Exactly!!! Those who are chosen know, those who don't, just don't matter!

@GregOK: Report that Jelavic & Mirallas have had a huge row which could prompt the Croatian to leave in Jan is untrue. #EFC

@raggizz: @johnmerro1 Forren is a ball playing defender, like Vertonghen or Pique for example. Great duel strength and heading accuracy. Cost £2-4m

@MoldeFootball: Vegard Forren is on his way to Liverpool for discussions with Everton.

The Sven approach!!!

Gibson is a massive player for us - initially we coped well in his absence but it is clear now that teams are coming through us too easily. I think we need to go back to Felli and Gibbo (I change my mind re. Felli's role weekly!) with 3 of Ossie/Pienaar/Mirallas/Oviedo/Naismith playing off Jelavic in the 4-2-3-1 formation we are playing. Felli and Gibbo will help us dominate the middle and hopefully keep leads! I'd actually like to see us go out and get another striker in Jan who is ready to compete with Jela as I think he needs that on the back of his form this season.

Baines/Oviedo/Osman were the only ones to turn up - very frustrating!!! Moyes annoyed me today - we needed Barkley on for Pienaar or Naismith on 60-70mins - maybe he doesn't trust the players he had on the bench but we looked tired in areas and it needed freshening up! Another 2 points lost and disappointingly a fair result overall!

There's a few twitter rumours suggested there could be a few surprises in the starting xi.

Your recouped figures are wrong for at least Liverpool and Man.Utd... Torres? Ronaldo? and Arse have sold Cesc, Clichy, Nasri and RVP for a lot more than above - in fact they're all wrong!!! Edit: just saw the club by club table - that's better - seen similar before!
