Same, really dislike the home one. But really like the away It's exactly the same kit.... just different colours Were you expecting Villa to bring out a new green home shirt or something?

I've never, ever seen the fuss about Sidwell. Deeply average player.

but he's not a quality defender. So it is a lot of money.

£8.6m. Since then, transfer prices have gone crazy as well. I'd at least want our money back, not make a loss at a price that values him the same as Michael Chopra or Adebayor's left knee.

Fulham bid £5m for Andy Johnson What a bunch of tits.

I thought you said Henderson was great in the Championship?

I hope this one is as good as the last one Top man, Alan Irvine. Looks like he'll be a good manager himself at PNE too.

£4m seems cheap if he's so highly rated? Surely the Serie A prices aren't that much lower than our market?

Good replacement for Lee Carsley. Yeah, on a free transfer too so if it comes off I'll be happy. The Spanish press aren't any better than the English press so I was probably getting ahead of myself.

Mehmet Aurelio to turn down Newcastle, Real Betis and Werder Bremen to sign for us according to links from Spanish websites that I don't understand.

The Everton 3rd kit is supposed to be that highlighter pen green colour as well. Ajax without Abn Amro is a travesty.

Is that his year of birth or does he have Buffon-eque right wing(not the position) tendancies? Doubt it since he's a Turk immigrant

He looked good at the Euros, exactly what we need in midfield.

There's all sorts of s*** going on- Moyes hasn't signed a contract still, supposedly doesn't know his budget, the people who underwrote the loans for last seasons transfer activity Phillip Green and his stooge Robert Earl are rumoured to want out due to it looking increasingly likely that the Kirkby stadium won't happen (thank f***). Takeover rumours were flying about a few weeks ago. Papers don't seem interested though.

Wow, that was out of the blue He's supposed to be really good. I know Pompey have supposedly been after him for ages. Good signing.

Latest ones for us are that we are after Aimar (along with you lot). Not convinced by that story. We're also apparently getting an ex-Czech player and manager to head up scouting in Eastern Europe.

How the fuck can you get a suspended sentence for the same offence as one you've already been convicted of and are currently doing time for? Absolute farce. Defies the whole point of a suspended sentence.

Jagielka isn't even a right back...

normally i'd say its contact with the player that counts but the way ferguson has whined on about ronaldo when he done exactly the same witrh ferdinand is taking the piss. And Hargreaves, Saha.... The media driven campaign to get Rooney to Man Utd is exactly what Madrid are now doing to get Ronaldo. They've got a taste of their own medicine and don't like it.

Ramos is so overrated. Decent going forward but a deeply average defender, he can get away with it at right back but if he came to the Premiership and played centre half as he does for Madrid he would be destroyed. My picks: Casillas Anyukov Pepe Marchena Zhirkov Iniesta Senna Sneijder Xavi Arshavin Villa

There's some more detail on this here: http://www.liverpooldailypost.co.uk/everton-fc/everton-fc-news/2008/06/28/round-keen-on-everton-switch-64375-21165879/ Chelsea want him in the new set up with Scolari, McClaren wants him at FC Twente, Newcastle want him to stay and we have offered him the assistant manager job. Says we are favourites at the min.

Nigel Martyn was miles better than that overrated ponce Seaman.

Yep. I've heard that a few times now. I suppose Chris Hughton is a ready made replacement for you.

Matteo Ferrari? Aye thats the one Very good player. Classy centre half.

We're playing PSV at Goodison as well I'll be going to that one
