He's not good enough - never was, never will be.

By the way, since I've been away for a week and missed all the fun, Distin for Lescott and over £15m in our sky rocket? Yes fucking please!

to be fair, and i'm one of his critics, he was better in the 20 odd minutes he came on than cahill was for the 90, or osman and pienaar for that matter...

Agreed mate. He has been poor this season to be honest, infact he has been fucking awful in some games, but so have Osman and Cahill. I think Pienaar has done well this season and will let him off his poor performance against Wigan due to him getting kicked off the pitch. I always respect what you have to say about players TBB even if I dont agree with you as you watch the lads week in and week out so know more than I do.

I have always noticed, when watching the games at Goodison, that Fellaini always makes himself available for a pass. He at least gives the fella on the ball an option. Some might say that it is easy to do this but, if that is the case, why cant the other players do it?

I think he will become an important player for us. He is still a young lad and still learning the game but he does show some nice touches and have really improved in his closing down. He isnt picking up the silly bookings anymore so he has proved that he can change.

C'mon Dixie, you know I'm right. Look into my eyes, see the integrity and intelligence shining through. Let it go mate, see things my way. You are walking down a long corridor, there are two doors. See how one of them glows with love and the promise of endless beer? See how the other one is dark and cold, slimy and evil? Now the first one, the glowing beer door, is my way of thinking. Behind it are untold riches, beautiful women all breathing the same song into your ear: "Dixie! Dixie! Take me! I'm all yours!". The beautiful women pour you cold lager and hold the glass to your lips as they stroke your thigh. Behind them is a bench. Who's that sitting on the bench? Why it's Fellaini, waiting for his ten minutes at the end of a meaningless Europa group match. Now open the slimy evil door. The room is so cold, so dark, so miserable. There are smelly old tramps trying to lick your ears, offering you pints of piss. What can you see? Why it's Fellaini, captaining the Everton side to relegation and bankruptcy. That room is Dixie's way of thinking. Come over my side Dixie, come over to the nice side.....

PMSL....


Actually I am with Dixie... I think he will make it....

Seconded

Fucking hell, well enjoy your pints of piss lads. All the more cold beer and shagging for me then.

I agree with that. I dont rate Jo much if Im honest - Im glad we've got him on loan rather than a permanent deal.

He's not a bad striker - just has something missing that prevents him becoming a top player.

It would have been worse if he had two left feet.

Fair enough. You're wrong. But fair enough.

I cant even recall Jo having a shot on target.
