FIRST I wish to quote Mikel Arteta: “I have come to realise how important this club is to me, and how important I am to this club, that is why I signed the new contract”.

Secondly, Arteta also said: “We have not bought any new players but we have not sold any of our important players, that’s good and we can get on with the job.”

I hope you still get the Echo Mr Arteta as it often sang your praises, now I hope it will do the decent thing and brand you as the traitor that you are.

David Moyes did the right thing in refusing the price offered by Arsenal, but you had to put the boot in to a club that adored you.

You asked to go, well go you should, but do not expect a warm welcome back when you return to Goodison Park.

Now, I am pleased to say that the golden boot of Leighton Baines can take all the free kicks instead of you pushing your way in and cocking most of them up.

You are not a Fabregras and I think Wenger will soon discover that. We will succeed without you as we did when you had that very long lay off with injury.

Ossie will fill your boots nicely as he did at the back end of last season and became in my mind player of the year.

ARTETA wanted out we had the best out of him and at 29 he was past his sell by date, since his injury he was never the same player and we get offered £10m? Looks like good business to me.

If you wanted to leave your position to work for a competitor would it spell the end for your current employer?

Football is a business motivated by greedy millionaires who only want to amass as much money in the shortest amount of time.

BILL KENWRIGHT has been an abject failure as Chairman of Everton Football Club.

For four or five years David Moyes performed miracles to disguise the lack of financial backing/ business strategy and at least delay the effects of Mr Kenwright’s repeated blunders; King’s Dock, Fortress Sports Fund, Kirkby.

Anyone can make a mistake but Mr Kenwright’s got nothing right bar David Moyes’s appointment (on Walter Smith’s say so).

David Moyes has now the smallest squad, no fit experienced striker, no creative midfielder, £17million raised in this summer and two questionable loans.

Mr Kenwright claims to be the best negotiator around. What a joke, or tragedy if you’re an Everton fan.

I HAVE supported this club since the 60s, followed it across Europe and seen the good and bad times. and never have I seen the fanbase so divided. Bill has to go, end of.

The Arteta fiasco, yes he had to go and it was a good deal. But it was the manner it was done, again, which leaves a bad taste. Why are we the only club that fails to add? Two loans are not good enough. Every Blue I know, knew exactly what would happen, a big name would go, with no time to replace them. The club is in real danger and clueless supporters still think the board are capable and deserve support.

MOYES hands were definitely tied here.

To say there was not enough time to sign a replacement is a bit tongue in cheek, as the whole world knows the money for Arteta wouldn’t have been made available to him anyway!

This money would have gone straight to the bank. Beckford going I’m not bothered about or Yakubu come to that. The two loan signings are unknown quantities, but I suppose Bill Kenwright will be happy with £15 million going to bank and three decent earners departing. Us Evertonians are holding our breath to see if we can compete with Stoke, QPR etc.

CANNOT blame Arteta for going, good luck to him, the club obviously made him push the transfer through to absolve themselves in the eyes of the fans.Let’s see how much of his money is available in January, Moyes must be getting sick of this by now.

TEN million pounds for a 29 year-old who I predict will not play that many games for Arsenal.

Arteta is at an age where any injury takes longer to heal and he’s now injury prone, that’s why I’m predicting him having a poor playing record. We are now £75,000 a week better off by being forced by Arteta who was crying how much he misses Spain.
