Football Forum: 'Donovan can replace Blues’ deadwood'

THEY do say that to win cups and medals, especially in the Premier League, it is vital to get off to a good start because if you fail to do so it becomes a struggle to achieve a top league position.[LNB]Everton have failed to achieve the start required and the fans certainly won't be too happy and realise it is an uphill task.[LNB]No one on the treatment table, a full collection of players available, fans relishing a top four finish - the pressure is on David Moyes now.[LNB]I also think the manager has made a mistake - a vital one - for he should have enlisted Landon Donovan - whatever the cost.[LNB] The reason for not recruiting Donovan was that he was too expensive - Everton could have sold a striker or two - he has those who don't strike anymore.[LNB]But he holds on to them and gives glowing reports. Move the deadwood and get Donovan in. He is the difference between success and failure.[LNB]Mr PJ Foley, Coventry[LNB]DISASTROUS start from the Blues once again.[LNB]Why is Moyes sticking with his favourites Neville, Osman, Hibbert (who did play well against Wolves to be fair) when he has Rodwell, Coleman, pre-season talent Gueye and more at his disposal?[LNB]Tim Edwards, Huyton[LNB]COME ON Moyes sort out this terrible start.[LNB]What is it with our lack of endeavour early doors? Saha and Pienaar aren't even bothered.[LNB]James Cook, L1
