Stats 7,142 Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Can't believe there is no thread for him? Anyway stated it for a while now, he is currently the best performing left back in the PL. Another brilliant performance today, his goal was total class but his defending and attacking responsibilities all round were excellent. I would love him to be our starting left back next season. Cole is still a brilliant LB but he is declining and has made quite a few mistakes and lost a bit of his pace.Best LB in the Premier League IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelseathebest 150 Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Best LB in the Premier League IMOFor sure.But I think we will never have him. I believe he's gonna spend the rest of his career with Everton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stats 7,142 Posted January 2, 2013 Author Share Posted January 2, 2013 For sure.But I think we will never have him. I believe he's gonna spend the rest of his career with Everton.Time will tell. But on a football level, he is excellent. Even against us was absolute quality on Sunday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shogun 721 Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Hes ending his career with us, there's no doubt about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DH1988 1,348 Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Not sure how our board couldn't see he'd be a brilliant signing, Bertrand learnt from Ashley, not ready to take over the role yet, Baines is 28 and Bertrand can take over when he leaves the club at 31/32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stats 7,142 Posted January 2, 2013 Author Share Posted January 2, 2013 Hes ending his career with us, there's no doubt about it.Who knows? Speculation over the summer was that he was going United. But if our board put in a good offer for him will you really have a choice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if our board put in a good offer for him will you really have a choice?Speculation over the last three years he's off to united. Trust me mate, I've seen enough Everton players leave over the years to know that he isn't going. Baines pretty much dismisses moving in every interview asked about it and he's a local lad. I'm 100% sure as is almost every Evertonian you'll meet that he won't be leaving Everton for a long time yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ideally if we got in the Champions League, I would want Everton out of all the other teams to join us. They deserve it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spike 12,049 Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 I've said before I'll say it again, Baines is the most English looking person to have ever existed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieran. 6,317 Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Thanks, I'm not trying to shoot you down or anything. Hes just not going to leave, I think our financial situation is is highly exaggerated in the media too.He has really big self-esteem and anxiety issues and I think Everton really helped him get over his fears. Reading his interviews, he really loves the club and it would take a lot to convince him to leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 If City don't go for him either this month, or in the summer, I'll slam a door on my face. He'd suit Mancini's style so well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
