So what's up with DiscoDrenthe ?

No game today. Injury or discipline?

Praying that this is true.

Good news if true although I imagine DM would wait until the summer before searching for the Goodison pen. Didn't Drenthe buy a house/flat nearby recently?

He's obviously a talent but I can't help thinking he'll go the same way as vdm

He's already done more for us than VDM, but he does have something of the party lover about him. If he can just mature a bit and get more playing time, he'd be a great player.

Contract with RM up on 30th June, free to talk to anyone now, seems settled in Liverpool, yet not a murmur of a perm deal?

I read that Moyes was concerned about his defensive duties but sod that, he's the most exciting player we've had in yonks! I know we'll miss the boat here and pass on him I really wish we wouldn't!

Good.

He's a liability.

If he plays tomorrow just watch how often he loses posession.

That's what I think too. It's all well and good giving the opposition something to think about, but this lad gives it away to cheaply. Granted it's nice to see someone have ago at breaking down the defences. There isn't enough to his game from what I have seen to sign him.

He has his faults but he his skills outweigh that. he can also score some great goals. considering our finances and the fact he is a free we should definately keep him. I dont mind the odd maverick in the squad, makes things exciting on the pitch.
