What about the red card challenge that was never given. Ok the wrong player at the wrong time got the wrong decision and that was unfortunate but look back at the challengers and you deserve to be down to 10 men {Ed025's Note - your clutching at straws mate....i could name lots of bad challenges in the game, half by the reds! dont come on here and try to justify that decision!..

Apparently we have a deal in place for lewis holtby in january but schalke can pull out of the deal if they wish. Make of that what you will. He is an awesome player though

Would be an absolute cracking signing, the lad has some serious talent and if we can keep our midfield together and sign him, we could have a top class midfield, imagine:
Drenthe---Fellaini---Barkley---Holtby
and still Rodwell on the bench.
Saying that, I still dont see how a deal is in place? I mean is it a first refusal to sign him? Because right now, it isnt really a deal especially if Schalke can back out for whatever reason.

Thats exactly what i said mate but that is all the info i got

He has no source he's just been reading NSNO forum there's a lad on there claiming it and then basically denying it
Agree0
Disagree0
Can anyone actually say they have seen Holtby play or know anything about him apart from he is suppose to be a blue. {Ed025's Note - i have not seen him myself, but by all accounts he is a very good player, he plays for schalke in the bundesliga, and has captained the german under 21 side, and your right, he is a mad evertonian and says his dream is to play for the blues..

I watched 20 minutes of him for their under 21's. He had a couple of touches in the midfield, sideways passes and put one cross in but it was cut out. I know it was only 20 minutes but he didn't really stand out.

Thats exactly it, no has seen anything of note and we have enough midfielders who have not proved themselves. So do we really need another one, despite him being a blue. If thats the criteria for signing players imagine the team we would have
Agree0

I have seen him, I follow schalke regularly and he is a quality player, just wishing the initial rumour is true!
