    I’ve seen very little of him other than a few YouTube clips and read several pieces about him that all refer to him as a tricky, skilful attacking midfielder / winger. One Nottingham paper even call him a forward.

    So I don’t need to see him to know he’s a different kind of player to shelvey.

    If he had stayed fit all season we would likely be sitting comfortably in 3rd. Like I have said before we would have been there if the ref had given the penalties against Blackburn and Swansea.

    I was talking to a mate of mine on Friday about him, and my mate made the point that this happens regularly with Everton. Every few years they produce a young player, who gets heavily hyped up, but very rarely do they ever live up to it. Danny Cadamartieri, Francis Jeffers, Wayne Rooney, Jack Rodwell, Ross Barkley, Tyias Browning, Brendan Galloway, Michael Branch, Dan Gosling. All were billed as future stars as young players over the last 25 or so years, and out of all of them only Rooney can be said to be a success, and he played most of his career at Man U. Some might have not hit the heights because of injury, but most of them just never developed and fulfilled their potential. Spunking £45 million on someone on the basis of one "good" season last year who's been poor this and has only played 65 games for Everton after making his league debut 3 years ago doesn't seem well thought out. It's not that he's a prolific goal scorer or putting in eye catching game influencing performances regularly, in fact he looks more like a Rodwell type, potential but a long way from being the finished article and if the stories of him refusing to train are right, a questionable attitude as well.

    But f@ck them. Let's hope they continue to waste money paying 2, 3, 4 times over the going rate.

    With the greatest of respect to your Brighton mates, where do they 'want' to be? The top table is a closed shop unless you are owned by a Country.

    There will be loads of talented young players not getting a sniff at the likes of Chelsea, Spuds, Man City etc who can be picked off and developed.
