He is a fucking traitor if he leaves us for a team like PSG! Money money money!!! If he wishes to go to another team he shall only leave to the bests like Barca! I will hate him anyways but less.

Naismith's goal for Everton in the last PL game last season?

Cahill and Cole didn't cover themselves in glory that time either. Their lack of communication in that situation was probably one of the worst I've ever seen and resulted in Cahill tackling Ash, lol.

He needs someone like in-prime Terry, in-prime Walter Samuel, in-prime Lucio etc. beside him. A tough but disciplined mofo.

Are there any of those available? I was going to say Sakho but he's inconsistent and doesn't exactly shout 'leader' which we kind of need more of.

I think its all bullshit ..

Why would he leave? He's winning trophies, he's playing a lot, he has his brazillian mates around, he's enjoying life in London, he gets paid a lot, he loves the club.. AND, the best manager is going to make him a beast. why leave?

I really don't get it. When I just joined here I saw a LOT of people going on about his defensive mistakes, judgement errors and so on - but watching all the games actually continuously made me think this was a bandwagon opinion based on previous (more youthful) performances.

The surplus Luiz adds in general play vastly outweighs the occasional lack of judgement. By the way ... as a Belgian .... Kompany and Verthongen also do that. Still!

So what do we want actually ? A perfect defender? Welcome to Narnia.

Let's not replace our best CB - but instead add young talent. I swear Luiz will even be better next season. Like good wines ages with years.

Yeah the bandwagon started because of some silly mistakes and a few penalties given away when he first arrived. Right now he just makes mistakes like any other CB (except Nesta, of course :P) but his mistakes are just highlighted more by the media and everybody because he has a reputation of making mistakes, and also because his mistakes tend to be silly and due to lack of concentration. In fact, Cahill, for example, makes much more mistakes than Luiz does, especially in movement and decision taking, but his mistakes are rarely mentioned.

Yes, I know. It was hilarious. :lol:

But still, the goal originated from Luiz's mistake in the first place.

There's often talk of "Why can't he play for us like he plays for Brazil?" but I actually think he plays better club football than he does international football :ph34r: He seems more passionate with us since in our team he's one of the guys, whereas in the national team players like Silva, Neymar, Alves, possibly Marcelo and so-on are held in a much higher regard.

I'm happy with him.

The difference between Kompany and Luiz is, in my opinion, Kompany loves defending whereas Luiz is a frustrated midfielder.

Players like JT, Tony Adam, Kompany and Vidic could score a hat-trick of 30-yarders and the highlight of their game will be a near-post clearance or a crunching tackle. Luiz loves to bring the ball out and hit those shots, but there are plenty of people (me included) who really don't care about that side of the game. It has it's moments, like away to Fulham, but I'd rather have the guy like Chiellini who loves to dominate games from the back.

Can he be the guy who plays next to that dominant CB? Absolutely, but if there are offers on the table for close to £40 million then it's very hard to say no.

True ... he had to learn that though. Vincent was waaaaaaaaaay to offensive back in Belgium and Germany. He was even played out for the NT in the midfield , quite like what is happening here now with Luiz.

I can see him operating with a dominant CB and easing into a CB role. Also, I think the discipline Mourinho is going to demand of him will settle in .... so I hope :-)

company in his first few season in england with city played in midfield as a holding player couldn't get into the team until he was turned into a CB and now you see he is a ball playing CB

That is a lot of money. Is there a centre-back in the world who we couldn't sign for that much? Varane? Mangala?

I've said it before, but £40 million for any player who isn't part of the spine or isn't someone like Hazard is a bid worth considering. If Jose doesn't fancy him then a €20 million profit is fantastic business.

There doesn't seem to be any reports of that on Daily Mail's website...
