Skysports say we have made an approach for Altidore a young american striker currently playing for Villareal. Been knocked back by all accounts

Probably nothing in this rumour, but by all accounts he is a v promising youngster who currently plays for Roma. Would like him here but not on loan. would like a perm transfer. Deffo one for the future

It hasn't been reported on their website yet

Very true, everyone thinks/knows he is our best player. So yes bids are more likely to come in for him. I hope we would be able to turn our noses up at an offer of 15mill or less though. Lets hope our beloved squad doesn't get any more depleted.

Anyway following on from sunderland at home i see another 3-0 win especially if that Mcshane plays. Don't know who will score

Arteta is only 26, meaning he still has his best years ahead of him, if his age is creeping towards the 30 mark it is creeping very slowly. Cahill on the other hand is 29 i believe.. Dont want either to go though as we dont have the numbers to let anybody go

Quality player. If he could shake off his injuries it would be a v-good signing.

Hook line and......................... I was absolutely gutted then.

I dont think there is much in this. Has he not said he wants a creative midfielder and a holding midfielder? It is pretty obvious the creative midfielder he wants is Arshavin, and although Our Teta has been playing in a more holding role for us recently, i wouldnt say that is what he is renowned for. Albeit it is rather worrying.

I always sit in the park end. No restricted seats there and good banter with th away fans. Well sometimes anyway.

I would love this one to go through. He is a v good player. Wouldnt hold my breath though. As i said on another thread i doubt much will happen in january. Hope i am wrong though

No chance though. Not even going to bother getting my hopes up. Lawro has it spot on for a change but it won't happen

we always scrutinise how other teams are playing, but for the first time this season we are one of the form teams and have only conceded in one of our last 6 games. So for me: Hull - Win Liverpool - Dreading it, but its a derby you never know Arsenal - They are struggling a little, we could beat these Man Utd - No Chance 6 or 7 points for me.

I also gave my vte to Hibbert. Osman very close though. Hibbert started shaky but as the game wore on he was v good.

Cheers mate, thats much better. adz 09 is grand by me

quality. Hope you win it.

Hello Everybody. i want to change my name from adamsmith69 to just plain old adamsmith or adz09. Does anybody know how i can do it. what i dick i was when i was younger. picking a sh*t name like that

Never know with Boro. They are more unpradictable than us. This could go either way, just hope it goes our way

Right guys, i fully expect this to be very mixed and most people to have different opinions but lets get it started. For me, and evidently David Moyes Ossie is a key player. I think he fully deserves to be one of the first names on the team sheet. Behind Jagielka i would argue that he has been our most consistent peformer this season. He looks good on the ball and i think everton always look alot more dangeroius when he is in the team. I am unsure how many times he has turned out for us Probably between 125-175 but think he is a v influential player. Also i hear that he is our club joker and all the other players rate him v highly. What is every one elses opinion? Also what a leg for staying on yesterday and battling through with a ankle injury. I doubt many other prem players would have stayed on.

Closer to relegation than Europe. Come on mate at least look at the league before posting such sh*t

everything has to come to an end. Our dismal home form and their amazing away record. both to come to a halt this weekend. 2-0 to us. An early crimbob prezzy

Linked with us, Any opinions? i dont know a great deal about him. Not sure how legit these links are. ever since we lost the yak we have been linked with endless amounts of strikers

I also think we will win this one. 2-1. I know cahill got an assist for lescotts 2nd equaliser but i thought he was the worst player on the park. If we had any options i would drop him, unfortunately we don't.

good on footie manager 2008/2009. I bought him for everton

I'm with Bill, They look very similar to the Kings Dock stadium.
