Are we able to offer Gareth Barry a contract in January as his City contract expires at the end of the season to make sure we don't miss out on him?

{Ed025's Note - we will make him an offer AL, lets just hope he takes it up.

His performances have increased my Mrs' sex drive. Yes I have to wear the cardboard cut out mask but its worth the effort.

Im going with a 3.1 win for us on sunday last year we created some good opportunities at Arsenal but this year I feel were better equipped to take them chances and have a stronger midfield and with the pace were playing at I think the gunners are in for a suprise and if this result comes off which i'm confidant it will and we bring in two quality players in January without selling any of our best I think we can challenge for the league and believe me that is how I honestly feel.

Don't get silly now, yes we just won at Old Trafford, but Arsenal a step up in class to Utd me for one would take the draw.

Agree with second poster. They no mug.got to carling cup final with kids.hard game but not unbeatable. We doing good though so let's see what happens

I agree. Arsenal (A) is the toughest fixture in this season's Premiership. Anything we can get out of this match would be welcome.

I'll just be glad to get out of there alive ;-)

Toffee ace

Would take a point, very tough fixture. We've got to close them down quickly and stop them pinging it around in midfield.

Excellent season so far! Havent stopped smiling since Wednesday night. COYB

Another fantastic win in what has already been the most enjoyable season for a long long time. Knew Martinez was top man and knew McCarthy was class, however had my doubts on Barry but knew he was what we need from the moment he made that clearance against Chelsea after Howards error in that game. I also loved Moyes but have have lost every last ounce of respect for him since he left for Man U. Cannot remember being so confident going into any game. Man U will never ever have the spirit of Everton, you can't buy it Moyes as you must have now realised. The only player who shows the spirit and passion of Everton is Rooney and where did he get that from? Remember what Bill said made him believe in Martinez? It was when Martinez said he will get us top 4. Even if we don't get top 4, I for one couldn't have asked for anything more from Martinez and the team. Our creative players now have a manager who appreciates flair and creativity and knows how to exploit other teams with attacking ideas. Mix that with the spirit and hardnwork ethic we have and who knows where we could finish. So so happy to be a part of this. COYB London blue

Though I can't see Lukaku ever playing for Chelsea again I still can't see him being at Everton next season. if that's how it turns out, I for one would love to see us do a swap deal involving Baines and Hernandez. I don't think its that unrealistic either as he can't be happy with the amount of game time he's getting. Oviedo has shown he is ready and Baines will be 30 next year. Surely this would be good business?

GloucesterBlue

Hernandez is good only as an impact player imo .Never does much when he gets the nod from the start.

I would much rather we go for jozy altidore if sunderland get relegated, the man is a beast

{Ed025's Note - im not a big fan of his..

05 Dec 2013 18:41:03
match of the day last night it showed highlights of uniteds best bits I can't believe I watched the same match and no feature and discussion of fellaini and rooneys red card challenges .im sick of seeing kev kicking the cannibal kid on tv anyway all this is only my opinion i'm only a very happy evertonian . tp.

05 Dec 2013 17:10:36
Well guys as promised here I am ready and waiting for a healthy slice of some of the eds i'm sure lovely tasting humble pie lol.
Well done on the win guys, still dislike ya fans attitude and bitterness but I do respect ya, so i'm here, let the baiting begin but keep it civil please :-)

05 Dec 2013 17:27:02
Ha ha

Give you this mate u got the balls to come back on so alright by me fella.

As you said its all healthy banter

Degsybluenose

Nice post mate.

Fair play to you for coming back to eat your humble pie Chris haha. I think most Evertonians dislike towards David Moyes is because of his actions since joining Man Utd. I remember he got a standing ovation at our last home game. i'm sure you and most Utd fans can see why we have turned against him. To be honest Manchester United and Moyes made themselves look foolish with their initial bid for Fellaini & Baines.

05 Dec 2013 18:20:06
Good on ya Chris. i'm sure once youve rid yourself of Mr Negative and appointed a genuine manager like Klopp you can return with the smugness you had last time. We got win on the day but it was a close game, respect for coming back.

Dislike our fans attitude. Go check your own. Wishing death on your own manager, a human being! Sick, twisted and disgusting. Your fans have a sense of entitlement, that you should always win no matter the opposition, that's arrogance. We, on the other hand, merely find Moyes' comments towards our club disrespectful, distasteful and insincere, it's not bitterness. But you've shown you have some balls to come back, fair play.

Excuse me? When have I said anything like that? I don't need to check my attitude at all mate, mine is fine.
I came, I gave u stick (which I lot started by the way) we got beat and like I said I shall returns to reap wot I said.
I dnt think u are better than us and I dnt think u will ever be as big as us. This is meerly my opinion. U have caught ua at the right time, had u caught us a month ago i'm sure we would of steam rolled u but at the moment we couldn't fight our way our a wet paper bag!
Us losing to Everton believe it or not is not the end of my world, but for u, is beating us the highlight of yours? If so how very sad u are.
I also take exception to this glory hunting tag we have we have many great fans all across the world like u, just because we win we are glory hunters?

Not you, your fans, d'uh.
We ARE better than you, we may not be as big, but our values will always be superior. Of course you will always be able to spend your way out of trouble, or change manager. The former we can't do but I'd rather a team who play for the shirt over a team of highly paid mercenaries any day. Your fans' arrogance knows no bounds as evidenced on your page.

'I dnt think u are better than us and I dnt think u will ever be as big as us. i'm sure we would of steam rolled u'

Your arrogance is so distasteful. I read your statements and genuinley pity you as a man and also as a supporter of Man Utd. Real Utd supporters must cringe to read your posts. Its just your opinion but as usual that opinion carries a high level of arrogance. You can't steam role anyone in this league. We are a better team on the pitch right now. Your team is totally average and you have a 400m debt bill. Your best player wants out and your second best player is an evertonian. The irony. Your latest signing is a 27m Evertonian and your entire team is run by Evertonians.Not only that, in Leighton Baines and Ross Barkley, two of your main transfer targets are. oh yeah that's it, Evertonians. Apparently its your club with the fixation

I'm sorry Maximiliano if a touch of realism is not what your feeling atm but its only the truth, Real united fans? hmm. lol good one that nearly hurt me that :)

can u please stop being so god damn nasty to me or like kenwright when we signed Rooney I may have to cry and phone my mummy.

There is no arrogance from me my friend I fully accept where we are in terms of the league and we DESERVE to be there! Likewise we have no divine right to win anything at all, everything in this league has to be earned through commitment and hard work once you have conquered that the skill and ability come into play and that normally is what separates the best from the rest, and right now there is no way we can claim to be the first!
I suggest you get your head outta ya backside and take what I say as what it is BANTER!
A few have grasped this and since then we can have a adult discussion, unfortunately you seem to be as sharp as a door knob!

Your stupidity is not my fault but I'm afraid its somthing you may have to live with for a while!

MEEOW GRRR :)

Oh its banter? I wondered what it was you were trying to do. Side splitting stuff. I appreciate that growing up with a Sir Alex Ferguson sized silver spoon in your mouth might have given you a false sense of self importance as a supporter of Man U. Similar to the thousands of 'supporters' seen streaming out Old Trafford with 5 mins to go at just 1-0 down. But the realism, as i'm sure the real fans I speak of understand, is that you have the worst possible person in charge of your club. i'm not quite sure you appreciate what is going to happen to your club under David Moyes. When I speak of arrogance, it refers to your genuine belief that you can just go out and buy yourself a Marco Reus. The front 4 of Dortmund like to roam around in a free form. Moyes doesn't do free form. He does rigidity. He will coach every ounce of quality out of a decent player. i'm sure Reus will be salivating at the prospect of keeping to one section of the pitch chasing the opposition full back all game. If he still has any energy left after 30 mins he might even be able to enter the opposition third. But I forget, he'd have the class acts that are Tom Cleverley and Marouane Fellaini protecting his interests wouldn't he? World class players don't want to play with crap. They also don't want to play under crap. At Utd they would have the pleasure of both.

So, hit that Man U page post haste. Youve some serious planning to do. All those big new signings to write about.

Lol Max. Did I hit a nerve?

I grew up before the SIR Alex era.

Some may be arrogant and expect us to win every game, myself however I am a football fan and understand that is near impossiable to do. I also don't jump on the bandwagon after winning one big game like a few others, but equally I dnt panic and cry when its not all rosey, we will get it right that i'm sure of until then I will smile and follow my team even if sometomes it is from behind my seat or my sofa :)

I think the best thing about last nights win will be the self belief and the confidence it will give to our squad. After last night I really believe that we can beat anyone and travel anywhere with one thing on our minds and that is to leave with a win.

05 Dec 2013 15:52:17
Wow what a night, like every other Everton fan I'm buzzing today.what a performance, how could you pick a man of the match, impossible.ive been watching it on sky today and the cameras went on to Leighton quite a few times and it got me thinking, if utd don't win their next 5 or 6 games they could b out of the champions league running come January wit us Liverpool and spurs ahead of them and chasing that spot.Will Baines want to go there now?im not foolish enough to write utd off yet but it certainly has thrown a spanner in the works for Leighton, especially wit Oviedo pushing him now.

Feels like the 80s again.the belief is building all the time and I for one am over the blue moon
thanks lads

Not posted for a while, Just wanted to eat some humble pie, I was not a fan of Martinez when I heard he was coming.

So far I am massively impressed with the class that the man oozes!. He has been like a breath of fresh air this season, I would have been over the moon with a top 10 finish this season, but Martinez has got me dreaming and believing top 4 is a real possibility.

Been trawling thorough some of the comments from Mancs over the last few hours, am genuinely surprised at the huge number who are saying Martinez was the obvious choice for the UTD job!

Would also like to congratulate the RS on winning the Prem last night. what they only beat Norwich at Home, easily pleased that lot!

05 Dec 2013 15:16:26
Well said mate, like most of us we initially wanted the foreign guy to be our manager, can't even remember his name now lol. Bobby is a class act, Dave Whelan told us all this and he is never wrong ha ha, well not on this occasion anyway

Degsybluenose

Lets not forget Martinez also told liverpool to take their job offer and shove it up their a**. its almost as if he was fated to become our manager

My goodness, I really cannot believe things this morning. We have still only lost one league game and we are 14 in. We have played Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester United and Man City.not to mention Spurs and one or two other possible banana skins. We have the Arse away next and right now they look better than any other team in my view. If we can get a result there (even a draw would be positive. then beat them at home later on) then I really think we have made major strides. Barry and McCarthy were awesome last night.although not a single player let us down in any way. I know we will have a poor run at some stage (as all teams do). I am hoping the two nil nils against Spurs and Crystal Palace were our poor run. My expectations are rising all the time. I don't want to tempt fate by making predictions, but I do feel very optomistic at the way our squad is developing.

Vredit to Oviedo as those two performances didn't come by by chance. The lad must of just got his head down and worked very hard, the chance come and so far he hasn't half took it.

05 Dec 2013 09:12:09
The RS had a high score last night and as usual there going on as though their world beaters, they beat Norwich at home - not exactly a great feat and I think they've forgot they got rolled over by Hull only a few days ago, to any reds that view this site - get a grip!

We turned UTD over in there own back yard!

Baz.

My thoughts exactly! I had a load of kopites spouting the same $h1t3 to me, on how amazing and great they were! for them having so many "World Class" players in there squad I would expect no different from them, especially at home

We had great win last night and all u can do is talk bout liverpool, who cares, we know how the song goes, we dnt care what the redsxxxe say

05 Dec 2013 06:22:32
Where is Chris the REDman?

Magic Martinez

05 Dec 2013 05:51:11
Great win last night and for once luck was on our side a times but all credit to the lads who played with belief throughout. The look on Moyes' face was classic at the end and just reward for the demeaning, patronising comments he made prior to the match. "He (Roberto) is doing a very good job. He has very good players there. I always told them they could play without a manager because they are very well organised." And then the biggest insult of all: "I only found out about the UTD job four weeks before the end of the season"'
Lying bar steward- even Sir Alex purple nose admitted starting the poaching process the previous Christmas.
Sorry to have taken up so much space on here but the arrogance of the man beggars belief.
Roll on Saturday and let's play AFC with similar resolve. I bet the UTD fans wish they'd looked towards Martinez instead of Moyes!

05 Dec 2013 00:27:17
If Manchester United still want Baines who else thinks that maybe if he were to be sold we could keep Oviedo at left back and use the money to help buy lukaku and/or deulofeu

05 Dec 2013 01:03:24
Tbh if Oviedo continues his good form then yes defiantly and even if we got 15-18 mill I still think we could just about scrape 30 mill at a push wether that would be enough I don't know. Also you would think Many of the other top teams would be interested and could easily price us out by paying something stupid like 40 mill. But it mainly comes down on where we Finish if we do manage to qualify for the champions league then its up to bill and co if they could find 20-30 mill a season we would be sorted. If not then I feel we will slowly slip back to competing for top 10. Even the promoted teams could outmuscle us in the transfer market . And say 5-10 years time barring a takeover we will slip further and further away, so I feel the next couple of years will be crucial in determining are future.

05 Dec 2013 00:12:57
LOVE IT. I've been waiting such a long time to see our boys do that at Old Trafford. Please go the Gunners and do that result again. Smiling hugely. Did our boys come out non-injured?

Think mc carthy might be, fellani scaped his studs down back of his thigh, never even got booked

04 Dec 2013 23:44:16
Great display, great win, great to be blue
Thought mcarthy and Barry were excellent tonight, and the defending from the whole team was top notch.will anyone in the media finally accept us as serious challengers
After Sunday we have a reasonable run of fixtures but even Arsenal can be beaten, our squad
looks a lot stronger, oviedo has been a revelation the last 2 games keep it going blue boysCOYB

04 Dec 2013 23:34:32
I haven't read a good book for years now.but the Manchester United banter page is abest seller in my eeyes.from going to kill us off to moyes needs sacking and team needs a overhaul. Even jk rowling couldn't of written this kinda stuff.get on their page and have a look.i won't sleep tonight thdu fits of laughter.

Just come off it mate. brilliant! Great p&&s taking comments from Mike -Ox Long.
