Premiership 2nd Week

Back to earth with a not unexpected bump as Everton lose 1 -0 to Reading. Before the match I had suspicions it would be difficult with only one goal in it, too many people do not give Reading the credit they deserve, they are a tough team to breakdown.

However on the bright side it looks like Manual Fernandes is on his way in. The Portuguese midfielder was fantastic for us when on loan to us last season and he can only make our strong midifield side that much more creative.



On top of that with Yakubu being left out the Middlesborough squad it looks like he could be coming our way as well, for a record 11 million pounds. Although he has under performed recently I am hoping that is down to be unhappy at the club. Maybe Yobo's quiet word (order) to join Everton may have paid off.


A joint Manny & Yakubu announcement on Monday or Tuesday? Maybe.
