Speaking to a season ticket/away game attending Everton fan mate of a mate at the weekend, his simple assessment is 'he's shit'. Which is obviously harsh. He'd just come back from the 1-4, so was obviously annoyed - He did concede he's just not good enough for that level. He scored 31

I think it's more a confidence issue, some of the misses I've seen, especially in the last few weeks he would have buried at Leeds. It's not like he's struggling against the defence (although he deffo was at the start of the season), he's just missing easy chances. MarkK. -Original

Another tough away day, another very good point. Definitely a match to focus on the positives of a clean sheet rather than unduly dwelling negatively on a blank at the other end. First half, as media reports have fairly put it, was a case of each team cancelling one another out. Our passing and

I agree, he had to go. He is now 27, should be in his prime and the clock is ticking on a short career. He would know that he may never have got another chance to play in the premiership. The odds on Leeds achieving successive promotions were certainly slim so he had to take the opportunity. A
