    Yeah mate, you’ve shown just how not arsed you are with that ^ rant & your previous ‘not arsed’ utterances on this thread.

    All I said was that it suits you.....

    I agree with everything you've said about James. He was a talent and undoubtedly a very good player who will have some great games but I think his best days are behind him. Even Everton fans are divided on him.

    He may have an Indian summer, similar to sturridge, just have that one season where everything clicks, he stays fit for the majority.

    If that happens then he's a fantastic signing, but its a bloody big if. Otherwise he will be a bit part player, making cameos.

    We've had plenty like it, keita last season was a prime example, injured, returning from injury, played a blinder ,injured again.

    I agree.

    For me, if you've signed a player, any player who only played 8 games the previous season, it's a big risk. Who was that Italian player we signed while he was still on crutches? <laugh>

    That's him. I would make a list of all the players we've had who I've forgotten about but ......

    I loved aqua man, I really did have massively high hopes for him. Must have got a sore throat from saying "when he's fit" so many times

    He only played 8 games as he was largely frozen out by Zidane, the number of games he was actually unavailable for was around a dozen. His situation there was similar to that of Bale.

    Rodriquez has lived off that World Cup goal for how many years now without actually doing a lot to justify it
