The Mail Bag

Booze Brother

So Van de Meyde has decided to link up with the Reserves. Does this idiot realise what he is doing? Does he read this website, I hope he does, get him out, get him out NOW! I would bet my mortgage he is either gone soon, or does not play more than 6 games this season!

Oi, relax mate.. the man’s scared of flying and since other methods of transportation to the US is rather slow moving he’s shackin up with the reserves. Can’t say I see the problem with it, atleast he’s trying to keep fit...

When fit, he always plays for the reserves. Nothing new.

ADVM was a waster when we bought him and he is a waster now.The
first time I saw his Freddy Star
mullet and bloated waistline I knew Moyes had picked a corker.Forget him
he is finished.

I am not the biggest Andy VDM by a ling way. BUT at the moment he did not fly with the Everton squad because his little girl was and maybe still is very very sick in Alder Hey hospital. He was infact sleeping at her bedside for over a week and going to Bellfield straight from there.

So he may not be the greatest footballer weve ever had but lets give him a break for a while eh...he probably doesnt give two fucks were hes playing at the moment, all that matters is his little girl.

If that is true Andy Baker then it puts the whole thing into perspective and I feel sorry for AvdM. Hope she gets better.

Given that explanation for his US Tour absence I hope there are one or two other apologies on here.

I remember a time not so long ago when Tony Marsh and others use to regard AVDM as the great hope.

In fact alot of critism was thrown at Moyes because he didn’t play AVDM regulary. Apparently Moyes didn’t know how to handle flair players.

I do think that there’s a good player in AVDM somewhere but I doubt we’ll ever get to see it.

Players like AVDM (Drinking), Ferguson (Injuries), Jeffers (Attitude) and Vaughan (Injuries) have great talent but we never see the best of them because of their problems.

I think everyone is being to harsh. He is obviously trying to get himself fit and he wants to prove himself. He has not travelled because of a phobia yet he has trained with the reserves everyday. He is staying and that is it. If he shows the workrate he has showed in the pre season games combined with his talent then we have a useful player. I will support any player playing for everton and that includes VDM and Beattie.

Lets face it getting rid of any players at this stage with the squad so thin is not an option.

AVDM & Beattie are both looking sharper and more hungry since either of them joined the club. I just hope they both run through brick walls for the shirt & start producing.

As for the squad, Baines is a must for left back & I hope Riquelme is enjoying his holiday after the Copa Cup getting ready to sign for the mighty blues & making the No. 10 his own.

I trust in Moyes and I just hope he’s saving the pennies to pounce on a truly world class player worthy of the fee.

How did Andy get to Italy? Did he do a Bergkamp and drive?

Atress dont be a liar as well as stupid .I have never ever rated ADVM .From day one I knew he was useless and have never mentioned him as being a great hope .Maybe a great dope.It comes to something when you cant fault my arguements so you have to make shit up. Tut Tut Tut.
