hope so! don't wanna lose lua lua already

I think we will finish top 8. Our team currently looks like

GK - Krul Really good young goalkeeper.

RB - Taylor (Good loyal defender, gets a goal or two)
CB - Williamson (No-nonsense defender, doesnt make many mistakes)
CB - Collocini (New captain, absolutely awesome for last 24 months, arguably our best player)
LB - Enrique (Reports that Barca, Liverpool and City all interested. Best LB in premiership last year, lightening fast and so composed)

DM - Tiote Labellled the new Essien, wanted by Chelsea, but we got a 5 year contract. Breaks down everything and distribution is great
CM - Cabaye New signing, described as similar to Xavi, he's awesome on the ball and Tiote/Cabaye, should work like Xavi/Busquets

RCM - Barton  Fantastic delivery, settled for first time in his career. Loves the club, loves the fans and always gives a 8/10 performance
LCM - Marveux  New french winger, blistering pace and shot, really exciting player that will get fans off their seats

AM - Ben Arfa Everyone in the city is talking about this guy. He was amazing against EVerton last season before Nigel De Jong broke his leg. Fast, skillful, direct, will cause defenders major problems

ST - Ba Absolute animal, 6ft3, huge and strong, defenders are going to shit theirselves. He's great in the air too and as Horneis said is a great finisher

Squad:

We have Steve Harper and Fraser Forster also going for the number 1 jersey.
Dan Gosling was signed last year and will almost be like a new signing, really looking forward to him trying to get into the first 11. Can play in the middle, on the right or at right back
Jonas Guttierez - Arguably one of our best players last year. So strong, so fast but poor end product, really good for away games as he keeps the balls and great on the counter attack
Ryan Taylor - Versatile set piece specialist
Danny Guthrie/Wayne Routledge/Alan Smith - Great Squad players
Leon Best/Shola/Lovenkrands - Decent competition for Ba.

lol biased much??
"similar to xavi"
"labellled the new essien"
"defenders are going to shit themselves"

i admire your passion but think your analysis of the squad is abioptomistic to say the least

LOL, I hadn't read this, BITB. Tbf Tiote probably is that good. Xavi one is out the top draw though 

[pleno1]

I meant similar styles to Xavi. Ben Arfa will be one of the best players in prem this season though.

Google, Ben Arfa - Everton on daily motion.

#wesoexcited

Tiote is abs incred though.

I'm suprised we got Cabaye when he was captain of the team that won the French league, I'll start looking forward to next season when we buy another striker, also a massive concern that we don't seem to be looking for a rb, huge sighhhhhhhhhhh.

16s a good price here surely?

EW with Paddy Power means on the place alone you are getting 4/1 on 7th, 8th & 9th.

And there are defo doubts with all of the other runners. Everton haven't bought a bigtime player for about 3 years, Villa have new management and sold 2 leading stars, Bolton and Sunderland aren't exactly scary prospects.

Also quite like West Brom @ 28s.

[Josedinho]

Nice find BH. Much prefer this to the match bet V Sunderland.

We are definitely getting at least one more decent signing, a striker, so if we run decent then you should get a run for you money.
