Bearded Genius is brilliant. He really needs to get paid for what he does.

Borriello has a small concern. Might be ready for Cagliari but I think he'll be bench ready.
Do not want Nainggolan. Indonesia's best player or no, I'm sorry, do not rate him highly. What's even more frightening is apparently we made a bid for Beharami from Fiorentina. Fuck me, what is that shit? Not interested. If we're going to sign average players, we may as well not sign them at all.
Amauri situation to be solved in the next two days. Probably Fiorentina, I think.
Grosso probably going to Lecce, which, like Toni's potential move to Bologna, is a bit below his standard to be fair. That'll be okay if we end up with Kolarov a move which, while exciting, I feel is unlikely. The problem for me is that'd push Bonucci to the bench since Chiellini would move into the CB role, and excepting the Napoli game, I think Bonbon has been good overall. I really don't want to disrupt our defence (top in the league, I might add).
Mascara signed for Novara, which, again, from our perspective we could have sent Pasquato there and got him playing time.

:O But we have a solid team again so you should at least watch some of out games
VdV is great but really it's Modric and Bale who run the show (and grudgingly I must admit Scott Parker continually impresses). Spurs' midfield is performing at such a high level.
I'm calling it now, Spurs will win the title.
I'd love it because the Manchester sides would be denied, and it would be considered a failure to City.
But the wanking over 'Arry in the media would be insufferable. LOL!
COYS!
Marotta :lol He has to ruin it, doesn't he?
Nainggolan: I watched very little of him, but I like what I'm reading
We'll see for ourselves in three days I guess 
Beharami: What? NO!
Kolarov: I still like him, but he's expensive, and Mancini is a little bitch. He likes stockpiling as many overpaid bench warmers as possible.
I feel bad for Bonucci, he really stepped up his game lately! In all scenarios, he's definitely not going to start over Chiellini if we end up with a solid LB.

If Spurs won the title it would be great.
Of course I want United to win it, and of course I'd rather Spurs than City...but being as neutral as possible, it would be amazing for the league.
Also, the wanking over 'Arry may be insufferable...but to be fair to the man, when he took over that club were in the relegation zone. Okay, it probably would not have stayed that way and the team was obviously better than it's position suggested...but still, the turn around in 2 years has been incredible.

If Spurs won the league, I'd have to go cull a percentage of the Spurs fanbase. A load of people I know are the worst type of football fans as it is but for Spurs to win the league would send them in to overdrive and I'd be more than happy to go down in history as a serial killer.

Pato has just said he's staying at Milan.

Newcastle linked to:
Luuk De Jong
Siem De Jong
Ricky van Wolfswinkel
Any good? :lol

Wolfs is pretty good, both of these players seem to have talent and are getting linked to big clubs.
Cant remember how my predictions went for the league but I called Man City going out early in the Champions league

Gerrard has signed a new contract.
Pay-rise!
Pay-rise!
I am blaming Moyes because the blame falls on him when the team is on the pitch, simple as that. I know that he apeasr to be a saint outside of the fans of Everton because of media and Kenworths inability to manage a club. But he isn't a good manager tactically and while he has a great amount of talent at his disposal, he doesn't use them.
I am ot gonna repeat what I have said over and over again in this thread, but yes financially he isn't supported, but the players we have are enough workforce to at least be best of the rest. The owner(s) may be thick headed, but they don't have many option to work with and Moyes and (people outside of the club) shoudl STFU about finance when we have one of the academy in the country and players who can get inot any national team easily.
Aye. Fellaini and Billy were expensive investments when they came two/three years ago. add to the fact the small players we have signed here and there who were young enough to play at PL game, and you have a a major investment.
Media and people
who don't know better to shut their mouth off before talking about Everton
I'll go through them and add them to the OP

Magath now has a first team squad with 40+ players at Wolfsburg. Hilarious!

Magath is a mix of Kaze Hirai and Yoichi Wada.

Pato: "Milan is my home. I did not want to interrupt my career with the Rossoneri after winning my first two trophies with this shirt. I want to contribute to the writing of Milan’s history and to the future success of this club, in perfect harmony with everything. This joy gives me the energy to face future matches with more enthusiasm, with the desire to win and to score goals. Today is a special day for me. I thank the Prime Minister Berlusconi, the club and the fans who have always believed in me.”

Gerrard was probably unhappy that Carroll was getting paid half what he does.

Hey Man United, wanna buy Subotic for 20m* so we can keep this guy?
* in Summer that is.

Looks like Felipe Santana to me.
That's more like it! I guess he's not bored yet of Barbara Berlusconi
Your last name better not be Melo
Your last name better not be Melo
Thank fuck no :lol
Wow.. extraordinary stuff.
So lets say Moyes leaves for whatever reason. Who comes into Everton right now and does a better job?
Yeah, if we don't then I wouldn't be pissed at all at Spurs winning. They've been fantastic this season. Highly doubt they will though.
Looking through OT1, some predictions!:
the conspiracy plot thickens!

He's just as good. And he's awesome.
The problem is that I doubt Santana will spend another year behind Subotic and Hummels. I'm pretty sure he'd stay and sign a new contract instantly if he would see a chance to become a starter. And Subotic will end up in England rather sooner than later, anyway, as much as I like him.

holy shit. apparently berlusconi stepped in and blocked the tevez and pato deals.

i'm not too sad if we don't get tevez, we don't really need him tbqh. give el-shaarawy more playing time plz.

Because he'll give you 90% of Subotic at 50% price? No brainer.
I'm horrible at predictions. Since I said today that I think Spurs will win the title, I most likely jinxed them ;0

I still think N'Zogbia was a good signing at £9 million. He just not in good form at the moment. I don't watch enough of Villa to say whether that is McLeish's fault or not.
