Mirallas blocking Landon's return?

Landon will ALWAYS be welcome here – he showed what we needed and TRANSFORMED this club each time he came.

Everton do have strength, but not in depth; when we get one or two (on occasion 3) 1st team players injured/suspended, we struggle.

It has saddened me to see Phil Neville played off the park most games in central midfield; his performances have been below par this season and he proves that Everton could do with more numbers.

I would personally like to see Fellaini drop back with Gibson and put Kevin Mirallas behind Jelavic, he is a great player and looks like he will dazzle this season when he reaches full fitness. But you do need cover; Landon would be a great option coming from the bench if required & keeping "Super Kevin Mirallas" motivated to keep his place. No harm in it, I say.

Neville does get slated an awful lot but I do think that it's slightly unjustified sometimes, we all know that he isn't the player he used to be... he was never a super talented player in the first place but he adds a tremendous amount of leadership which drives the team forward. We struggle for leaders in our squad, Neville has provided that aptly.

Getting Odjidja-Ofoe in January is of paramount importance; Gibson has proved already that he is a tremendous passer of the ball but will struggle with injuries as seen recently. We won't as a whole unit be able to cope with that along with the niggling injuries you get every week.

I don't agree that we need another RB, Coleman has a lot to learn but we also have Hibbert, two players who are weirdly different from each other. Again as someone said earlier, I would like to see Mirallas behind Jelavic at some point, and Naismith needs a chance to actually prove something as he hasn't done anything yet which is disappointing.

I do think Moyes needs to hurry up with the decision on whether Hitzlsperger should join us. For me, it's a no-brainer, we're seriously lacking strength in the middle of the park.

Let's hope we manage to so some good, early business in January.

He is kinda like that camp girl that you see once a year - blew your mind the first time you saw her, shagged her eventually and talked about what you would do in the world together as you looked up at the stars. The next summer you looked forward to seeing her and she was the 'for sure' summer shag again but this time you knew it was only a shag in the end. This time you know you could still get in her pants but there are new birds on offer, so she has been relegated to the bench. But at least you know you can still get a quality shag even though she may not be your first choice anymore.

With descriptions like that, how are you not a football journalist?

Pienaar has also shown that he can be a very good central midfielder at international level.

Then Moyes must give EPL minutes to challenge Barkley, Duffy et al to keep their hopes alive.
