Everton FC juror Mike Drummond

THE one difference we’ve had in the team from the semi-final defeat to the recent results is Steven Pienaar.

It is a MUST that we sign him in the summer – simple as.

I would be happy even if it meant he was our only signing.

He was everywhere at Old Trafford where he got a goal and assisted in another two against Fulham last Saturday – and not in the usual left wing position which just proves his versatility.

The Britannia Stadium is a hard place to go to and get maximum points so I’m not massively disappointed in the draw on Tueday evening, but it’s sod’s law that Wolves will turn up against us on Sunday!

But if we keep on with what we’re doing then seventh place in the Premier League will be ours.

Everton FC juror Tony Scott: Blues supporters wanting Everton FC manager David Moyes to go should get real

FANS calling for David Moyes’s head last week need to get real about the current financial state the club is in.

In August, when Yakubu, Beckford and Arteta were sold, a top eight finish with a good cup run was more than what was asked of the manager.

Remember 2002 when we were doing cartwheels at the thought of staying in the league and thoughts of top six finishes, European football and FA Cup finals were a distant dream?

If someone would have offered you all that on a net spend of £3m a year over the next 10 years there wouldn’t be a single Blues’ fan who would have argued.

Moyes has made several mistakes but which manager hasn’t? The root of our problems lie firmly above the manager, who, if they don’t pull their finger out this summer, some Evertonians may get what they want.
