Attractive summer haven for Tevez?
Comments (25)
Well the summer transfer window is nearly here and rumours are strife. One particular story doing the rounds today caught my attention was the story about Carlos Tevez saying he will definately not be at United next season and cited us amongst others as a rival to United and a team he would be interested in joining. Even though we would never find the cash to sign him, I found it as a very promising sign that we are becoming a top destination for players of his quality.
Watch this space....

I get the feeling he just wants to start for a competitive team, however. Who knows, he is a great player and they may find a way to keep him. They?d certainly be better served sending Berbatov to the door, and keeping Tevez.
But yes, I did see that comment earlier and had the same thought. Seems we are now visible beneath that glass ceiling (floor for them!) that separates us from the Sky Cartel. It?s not that long ago we could have contemplated bringing such a player to Goodison... sigh.
But... would I want him anyway?
Screech 9 goals - Tevez 2
Okay, goals are not everything ? but if you don?t score them ? you don?t win.
Blue Bill's pockets are nowhere near deep enough, an obvious non-starter.
That lump Screech is not on the same planet as Tevez!!!
But as others have said, its fairytale stuff as we just don’t have the cash. We’d have to sell Goodison to afford him :-)
?But would I want him?? and points out ?Screech?s superior goals record.
Ummm..yeah, when you think about it, that IS a tough one. (Contacts any living McWhirter to come and verify world record for rolling eyes while tutting and shaking head in despair...)
He is absolute world class but with a great attitude and is a superb, honest pro. What a great time for our multi billionaire owner to come out of hiding........
Some of us live in hope when it comes to Miss Johansson!
Tevez has scored 4 in the league as opposed to Screech?s 8. Tevez has played 1000 mins less than Screech though. Here you are really comparing apples and oranges. Fellaini will always play if fit Tevez isn?t guaranteed pitch time...its the difference between having a big capable squad and not.
Scarlett Johansson. like Tevez and players of his movement, ball control and class, remain a wet dream.
Its the other side of the coin from the Manure perspective, they have the great players but because they dont get the chance they want to move on. Tevez may look at a team like Everton because he knows he will be in the team if he?s fit, unlike at the RS where he will have to sit out his turn. City and Arsenal have the funds but I would guess that if Fergie recommends anywhere to him, it will be Goodison.
I?m just praying for that investor to pop up soon, then we could really build on an already good squad. Wouldn?t it be great to be putting an offer in for Millner and Young... or Robinho and Ireland... see the tables turn for a change.
In fact I would love it too, but then again. Dream on I suppose.
Why when I read this, and the mildly insane Tevez link, do I picture our club getting a billionaire investor and then behaving like some kind of old toilet cleaner lady who when her lotto numbers finally come up would not have even the first idea how to spend the money?
Gold plated bog brush anyone?
I think we could have safely added the Yak to that list as well if he hadn?t been injured. With investment that would surely stop and then it would be Everton getting linked with higher profile players, whether we get them or not.
True that be a few million less to buy players but a quality player is a quality player. He was awesome for West Ham but I guess the niggling point will be the 3rd ownership crap. Remember Fernandes?
But he’s a very good player, and our playing and coaching staff must feel at least a tiny bit good about that.
But anyone who can put Tevez and Scarlett Johansson into the same thought should seek professional help.

Now of course there is absolutely no chance that we are in for him, or would have a chance even if we were due to wages and his £25mil plus transfer fee.
BUT... this obvioulsy shows a change in how the big players percieve Everton. Hopefulyy in a couple of years we will seriously be linked with such calibre of player, but its a move in the right direction.
