Comments (56)
So Rennes are going to answer us regards M'bia today. The Chelsea board are going to discuss our offer for SWP today, and Riera was given the night off in Spain last night to discuss the offers on the table for him.
Will we see the yellow breaking news box on the Official Siite today??? Course not... but like an idiot I have become excited on who we might sign again and I'll be checking every so often.

Lars Jacobsen looks set to seal a dream move to Everton within the next twenty-four hours. The Danish international is in talks with Goodison officials and an agreement looks set to be reached
I’m moving tomorrow and will not have the internet till the 1st Sept.
I’m trying to work out if that is a blessing or a curse. I’m wasting my life checking the net every second but at least when I have the net I know nothing is happening what will the wondering do to me?

I think I?ve broken F5 button on my keyboard from refreshing pages in vain! How come every other club makes an enquiry one day and signs the next? Are we just offering way below every asking price?

The Jacobsen thing appears somewhat accurate. If Wikipedia is to be believed.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lars_Jacobsen
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lars_Jacobsen
isn’t jacobsen a defender!!!!!!!!!!!
Jacobsen is a RB - we already have Neville and Hibbert ,both decent players.
This is what it says on his Wikipedia entry
SEE RIGHT AT THE BOTTOM
Jacobsen was one of several FCK players who gathered international attention in FCK’s UEFA Champions League games, and as he looked to leave the club on a free transfer in June 2007, he was rumoured to be sold in the 2006 winter transfer window. A number of European clubs were reportedly interested in buying him, among them Everton FC, Paris SG and his former club Hamburger SV. In December 2006, Jacobsen agreed with FCK to stay at the club until his contract ran out, helping the club defend the Superliga championship,[1] and days later he signed a contract with German club 1. FC Nuremberg starting from July 2007. His stay with the German club was troubled because of injuries, and the club also failed to stay in the German Bundesliga. He therefore requested to leave and it was granted by the club in late June 2008[2]. He has now agreed personal terms with Everton F.C.

Alan, Hibbert is out for a while yet and Neville played with an ankle injury last weekend. Experienced cover much the same as Nuno at left back.
It’s a start people, it’s a start!!

Hey, it wasn’t in yellow!
I looked up wikipedia and it already had him stated as an Everton player on the right side.
Went straight to official site.. lol, he’s there.

It is on the official website. First Signing . Finally
He hasn’t signed yet, a deal has been agreed though.
Well, that currently reverts Neville to midfield !!
We were complaining about right back for so long..
Now to fill the rest of the NEEDED positions!

Oh Davey Moyes Davey Davey Davey Moyes! lol Who is this Lars Jacobsen geezer? Cud be good business on a free if he’s better than Neville.
Good news, that’ll allow Neville to move back into his creative midfield position
Lars Jacobsen has signed for Everton according to Onside.dk. The Dane flew to Merseyside for talks today and the latest bulletin on the website suggests that the move is official and that he will make a free transfer to Goodison after his Nuremberg contract expired.Lars Jacobsen looks set to seal a dream move to Everton within the next twenty-four hours. The Danish international is in talks with Goodison officials and an agreement looks set to be reached.
Onside.dk claim the right back is currently in England, even going as far to say his mobile network suggests so!
Jacobsen’s agent, Karsten Aabrink said; "I have no comments to Lars Jacobsen’s situation, other than that I expect a resolution by tomorrow."
The Danish international, currently plying his trade at Nuremberg, would cost the Blues nothing as his contract at the German club has expired

I dont know why im getting so excited over afullback
If you haven’t eaten in over 6 weeks, any small sized snack will do..
Official: Lars J. for Everton
After prolonged exploratory transfermarkedet, it is now official: Landsholdets right back, Lars Jacobsen, has signed a 1-year contract with Everton in the English Premier League.
Both Lars and I are very happy that we had so much ice in the stomach, we waited for the right offer came up. Since Lars left Nuremberg, there have been many interested clubs from both France, Spain and England.

I’m getting less excited than you because as some of the lads have already said that means that Neville will revert to MF!!!
On the other hand he is apparently injury prone so I guess that will only be for a few games.
I dont know why I’m getting so cynical though only 6 more signings to go and at least we’ve made a start.

OH What A Signing !!!!.... A fucking never heard of who couldn?t get a game for Nuremburg who were relegated from the Bundesliga.... FUCKIN BRILLIANT !!!
Neville back in midfield... oh the excitment goes on and on!!!
Yesterday some people tried to con us that we?d signed Shaun Wright-Phillips... Today we?ve signed... well a NOBODY on a free transfer!!!
The fuckin ambition at this club overwhelms me, it really does!!
So much for QUALITY!!! ... anyhow by the looks of the above comments it would appear plenty of you are easily pleased!!!

Its amazing how quickly big expectations can be brought back down to size pretty damn quick, one week its Moutinho and Arshavin and the next its another right back.....on a free.
I guess Moyes wasn’t joking about lowering his sights, but beggars cant be choosers

I am so excited with Lars joining us I?ve just got my wrench out. Still when Hibbert, Pienaar and Cahill come back it will be like having 3 new signings.
We finally sign somebody and people still moan!
Okay, it isn’t a FANTASTIC player but we need bodies as much as we need star players.
And I just watched that youtube clip from above.........I know for sure that neither Hibbert or Neville can do that......that was a sweet goal!
One down, 5 or 6 to go!!

SSN claims Espanyol have admitted they have recieved bids from two premier league clubs for Albert Riera, understood to be us and the shite.
Martin:
He hasn’t signed yet, he’s having a medical tomorrow morning and when that goes well he’ll sign a one-year deal.

Like Mike Coates i am disappointed it wasn’t in yellow on the OS, i kinda liked that.
You wonder why we still moan.....I must admit I’d forgotten just how desperately wee need another right back, next it’ll be another centre back followed by a left back. Maybe Moyes is strengthening the already strong positions first just to tease us (as if we need more suspense) leading up to a central midfielder on deadline day.
Don?t get excited just yet he will probably fail his medical tmr morn, the way things having being going for us.
Well, thats one from one.
Lets see if we make 7 in 7! ;)

I don?t know why we are bothering with this Riera; I thought his agent already stated he prefers a move to the Red Shite.

We used up on the yellow on the 3rd kit, so there was none left for the ’breaking news box’

Given we seem to have an abundance of defenders did we really need yet another. As others have already pointed out, I have to admit my immediate thoughts were of Neville being freed up to play in the middle of the park. Oh dear.
Ian McDowell - because its the way we do things we the flog the corpse of that already long dead horse until it gives Kenwright the opportunity to say "at least we tried, but due to things beyond our control blah blah blah"
Gerry,
Neville isn?t the answer in centre midfield but at least it?s another option, personally I prefer Neville in there than Jags.

Lars Jacobsen will be like a whole new signing!
Phil Neville will be like the whole new defensive midfielder we’ve been chasing for 2 years!
My biggest concern is not about the quality of this Jacobsen fella (I’m sure he’s OK) or the prospect of Nev back in the midfield no my biggest fear is that this is the ONE transfer just to stop the ignominy of not having made a single signing all summer
Given our history on medicals, unless we let expectations drop there as well, then I do struggle to see how we’ll get this guy and the other "5 or 6".
I do really appreciate what people are saying in regards to people complaining straight after hearing good news... and though we’re in dire need of bodles... I’m finding it very hard to be excited about this guy. It is a start though... let’s see about M’Bia and SWP - they arrive,well, then I for one will be one excited blue.

Sammy Kuffour linked now?
He was on trial with Sunderland for a week and Keane opted not to sign him. Given their obvious defensive issues in conceding 7 at Goodison last season, is it wise to be looking at picking up a defender they have opted not to sign?
Either he’s not up to it anymore or he’s looking for too much cash... either way, do we need another defender???
Worried.

So much for the quality signings we were promised!!!!!!!
Why the fuck do we keep signing defenders!?
Anthony, I knew that mate, was just venting my anger! If these Kuffour rumours are to be believed then Moyes really is a tit! 2 shitty defenders on free’s that have both been without clubs/loaned out for the last few seasons. Just what we need....!?
I see that Matteo Ferrari left Roma on a free transfer this Summer and he eventually wound up at Genoa who are skint. I’m surprised we didn’t get him back as he did ok, when fit, for us!
It’s a start with this Jacobsen. Still hoping for a Moutinho miracle myself plus M’bia, SWP, Milito and maybe Alan Smith. Joaquin would have been nice and so would Lorik Cana, but them’s the breaks........

I would bet a months wages that there are 20 right backs in the Football League better than this tosser whose hardly kicked a ball in recent seasons.If Moyes was out to sign a second Shandy Andy,he’s got one and i say that after reading of his exploits whilst working in Hamburg.
How the hell he could/would/should ever prefer this piss pot to Rodwell or Gosling is totally beyond me.
In my book Moyes has lost it!

hes only signed for a year. if hes good, snap him up, if hes crap send him back. The tried and tested formula for this sort of fella. You forget that moyes has a nack for resurrecting players careers in this way... Pienaar.. Arteta anyone??
Unfortunately - with our finances and our pull as a club - these are the type of players we are capable of signing. We are kidding ourselves if we think we can sign a ’name’
I remember a Lah Jacobsen he was a tailor in Islington...never mind the QUALITY (we were promised) feel the width !! How can people even discuss a signing like this..its a freebie and most of my experiences are..YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR..Do you guys remember Bosnar, Plessis, Nyarko, Pascucci, Ferrari, Krøldrup and VDM...most are not wanted elsewhere or are habitual sickies.. WHERE IS EVEN ONE TOP QUALITY PLAYER..this guy has played just over 50 games in SEVEN years...DM has been tracking him for 18 months.. My arse.. we may as well go for a Yozzer Hughes..How you clowns can get excited over signing another one year bench warmer beats me!!
Look on the bright side
Anyone who wants his autograph is in luck, doesnt look like you’ll have to queue up behind Trevor or Den

Shame upon you, Den Masters. Anyone deserves a second chance and I remember that Tony Adams was a recovering alcoholic when he played his best games for England.
I have been an Evertonian since Thom G joined the first time and have been over to see the team four times although only once to Goodison.
If Lars can get his act together, he can do well for the club ? all he needs is a good chance.

Sorry, Anders, Moyes must be off his head. This guy had trials at Pompey, Colchester and Bournemouth last year and didn?t get past first base! What the fuck are we coming to???
He's an international player with Champions League experience and can provide good cover at the very least - what else is it you guys want?
Let's see if he's better than Hibbo?
He's also just waiting for a blood test result due tomorrow - so unless there has been exchange of bodily fluids with someone dodgy, he will be fine and be our first signing. So get used to it, back him 100%, give him a chance and welcome him to the family.

is right Steve lad
No one had heard of this guy this morning, now they’re all fucken experts
He’s a blue now, give him his chance

Hope the new signing from Denmark can head the ball. Remember all the cash spent on Per Krøldrup, whose ability in the air was by all accounts ?legendary?
Moyes has said he does not want "mid-level" Premier League players, let's hope the the board don't take that to mean that they should aquire players not good enough for top-flight football.
Heavan forbid!
