Pienaar agrees Toffees switch
Comments (10)
Sky Sports is now reporting that the player has agreed to terms with us and passed the medical, so it now looks as though we have got a potentially exciting and skillful attacking midfielder able to play on the left. It is true that he didn't have a great season last year in Germany, but the guy had done very well in all seasons prior to that and surely could be very valuable to us linking up with Arteta in the midfield.
A midfield consisting of Arteta, Cahill, Pienaar looks very good to me. Now I just hope we can finish this Vogel deal to get him in there as our holding midfielder. This midfield would have to be seen as an improvement from last season, maybe now just get Smith on a loan to cover for Vaughan while he is out?

I’m made, if this lad can capture the form of his Ajax days, he’s be a fixture on the wing for us! no doubt about it!!
Now for Vogal! He’d be another great signing, bags of european experience and is on a mission to make the swiss squad for the euro championships!
If we get Alan Smith and maybe Fernandes back.... on loan of for a fee, then It will have been a great summers work by Moyesey!
SO MUSH FOR ALL THE NEGATIVES !!!!

If the truth be known I’ll be not so pensive about handing over my hard earned for a Season Ticket if there will be someone other than Arteta who can do something different with a ball (Pienaar) and someone in the defensive midfield role who won’t just panic and welly it ala Carsley/Neville (though Carsley not as bad for that), by that I mean Vogel.
COYB!

And if anybody wants to pick the team for him, let them garner the appropriate experience and pin their selection on the dressing room door.
He seems to be achieving what most of us wanted, not a change of personnel but an all-round strengthening for hopefully what will be a long hard season of getting up there to compete with the rich kids. If any of these new lads - looking good to me - can’t play alongside Lee and Leon, then DM will have made an error of judgement. Let’s hope not.
