Steven Pienaar says that it was advice from David Moyes to be more selfish in the final third that helped him pitch in with four goals after returning to Goodison on loan from Tottenham.
The South African midfielder scored just twice in 18 appearances in the half-season before he left Everton in 2010 but doubled that tally after January this year as the Blues pushed on into seventh place in the Premier League.

"The Everton manager sat me down and told me to be a bit selfish and get in the box to score goals," Pienaar told The Sowetan in his native Johannesburg.

"When you return from injury you have more hunger and excitement for the game, but the season is over now and I have to show that same form for the national team."

The 30 year-old is back home as Bafana Bafana prepare for two 2014 World Cup qualifiers against Ethiopia and Botswana but he was also quizzed about his future back in England.

"I have to go back [to White Hart Lane]," he says. It's not ideal I have a great feeling at Everton but I don't have a choice. I have a contract there."

Pienaar made no secret of the wrench of having to say goodbye to his Everton teammates after such a successful return to the Blues and rumour has it that he has told the North London club that he will only sign for Everton this summer.

He will have to wait to see, though, whether David Moyes has the capital available to bring him back permanently on the one hand and whether Spurs will play hardball over the price on the other.

moyes has only flopped 3 signings in my eyes
van der mayde
bilyaletdinov
senderos

Koldrup !! Worst buy
Curtis Davies ?

Blue buck

+Per Kauldrup +Gardner

Sorry I meant Gardner not Davies
Blue buck

I liked Billy, he's first season was good anyway, gave us some moments of magic
Toffeepidge {Ed025's Note - then the magic faded pidge..

Simon Davies was crap

Who's gardner?

I don't think that Billy was a major flop, Van der meyde maybe and Kroldrup definitely. I happen to like Senderos.
Bobcat

Anthony Gardner-we signed him one January on loan for the rest of that season and he was crap

He didnt play 1 game for us

I think we should all trust in moyes evaluation. Let's be fair he doesn't get it wrong too often. Therefore if moyes decides to bring Naismith in I'll be confident he'll be boss until he proves otherwise.

Something's gotta give this summer. The Pienaar transfer will probably run all summer if Spuds are going to accept a lower offer from us. Pienaar has to stand his ground and hold out for us. Iv got everything crossed

Tricky trev {Ed025's Note - me too trev..

YOUR BORN A BLUE! YOU CHOOSE THE REST

COYB

Jc {Ed024's Note - True

I still think Baines should play left wing for England instead of stuart (drowning at international and prem level) Downing!

C'mon Roy see sense

Gods Doctor

Baines is one of the best players in the prem, england should be playing him, he is better than cashley cole

Bez the blue {Ed025's Note - both good players...but baines is more of a goal threat..

It would have been great if his free kick had gone in at the weekend ed. {Ed025's Note - it would mate..

Hiya ed025 and 024. Not been on the site for a week or so just been reading through comments and saw that both ed's have replied and confirmed that Naismith from Rangers will be signing?
How confident are you that he will sign? Is it a definite signing for us?
Iv'e not saw it on any other website's or SkySports News or even the official website so find it strange that both 025 and 024 ed's are convinced that it a "done" deal?
Please reply and let me know what's happening he's a decent player Naismith would like him to be at Everton next season,
Cheers
PaulEFC {Ed025's Note - basically paul, we were informed by the scottish eds, who are very well connected, that the deal has been done, we have no reason to disbelieve them, as other deals such as the jelavic one, were spot on!..

Ok cheers ed025. Thanks for the reply, let's hope it happens then, think it will make a massive difference to how we start the season if we can get some faces in early on in the transfer window rather than last day deals!!
Pienaar and Naismith to sign early in the summer will be brilliant.
Looking forward to next season.
PaulEFC {Ed025's Note - me too paul..

Naismith would be a quality addition, lets keep our fingers crossed

What to do when the season ends? Get home from work and scour the internet on transfer news on the mighty blues for a good 3 hrs atleast, getting our hopes up about the thought of signing a player we never realy heard of but get excited that the club could of finaly released some funds for David Moyse to play with. The son of a Russian billionere has come to our salvation, a araibic prince with money to burn buying a new ground. All these thoughts dreams and nightmares! we have about our beloved club and i wouldnt change a thing we dont need millions to susceed we are everton and we will do it the hard way but never less we will prevail coyb stokesylaaaa

Very true

everton team next year


---------howard---------
hibbert--jags-heitinga--baines
donovan-fellaini-gibson-piennar
sigurdsson
jelavic

subs
gueye
distin
rodwell
barkley
osman
neville

Erm Cahill and a spare keeper for the subs/squad and I'm not sure which Viking we're linked with but Naismith seems another favourite. As I said below let's wait and see who we've got when the season starts but a promising selection 8/10 and 5 house points

Big C

We will sell cahill to free up funds and wages for pienaar and sigurdsson then sign donavon for 10 million {Ed025's Note - hmmm

Fellow Blues and Eds (24 and 25 you are in both)

Amidst all this speculation Who goes? Who arrives? Who said this and who said that there is one piece of advice I'll proffer to you and I quote

"I don't care what the RS say what the f... Do I care cos I only know that there going' be a show when the Everton boys are there"

In Moyes we trust, guessing and hoping and speculation are all well enough but we all need to be patient until the main man acts then let's get excited and watch the others tremble and fall in our wake Everton are coming hear our roar feel the ground tremble.

COME ON YOU BLUES

Big C {Ed025's Note - love it big c..

Felaini should tell his dad to shut his mouth we pay him big wages,and felli seems happy but his dad is spouting on about him linking up with hazard it's not on am pissed off with him ,mr felaini,please show us some respect

What's happened! I've not seen anything about this!

Fellainis dad is just a pushy parent that needs to fill his time more usefully - not sure that Felli listens to him completely because he signed for us again didn't he - and Fellis dad was trying to get him out of everton - grass aint always greener and we could be awesome next year - he may be better staying for another year and giving it a real good go with everton

29 May 2012 12:59:43
would like to see vellios giving more of a chance next season see if he can be a major success

Never mind the Kopites being deluded and thinking they're still a huge club who every player wants to play for, the other day, a R/S said to me on the bus "Dalglish was a better manager than David Moyes" (here I gave him a disgusted look) " Dalgish actually won a trophy. Moyes, he's never won anything for Everton has he? So he's a crap manager" now that angered more than when the R/S think they're getting Hazard and Cavani. I said to him that when Moyes took over we were nearly getting relegated every year and he's made a top team again, challenging for Europe even though he's had like no money to spend. He still said that because he hadn't won anything, he's a crap manager. Thing is though, if you based it on that, not only is Moyes a crap manager, so is Brendan Rodgers, Paul Lambert, the manager they're about to appoint Roberto Martinez, etc....

Rant over :)

J.D {Ed024's Note - Moyes is a top manager

How much did they spend last year compared to us if king kenny is so good why did they finish 8th and why did he get sacked

He's just winding you up cos he knows pound for pound moyes is a better manager than red managers - who'v all had multi millions and ended up below us - hahhahaaaaa - just laugh at him - he's a simpleton

29 May 2012 11:10:58
Why dont we go for Seedorf, he might be 36 but still top class

He's just as good as scholes, in my opinion

The 120k a week MAY just be a sticking point {Ed025's Note - you think?..
