Wish list for Blues to offer festive cheer - Everton FC latest

26 December 2009 00:00
BILL Kenwright got it spot on with his Christmas wish-list. The Everton chairman made a typically heartfelt statement on the club's website listing what he hoped to find under the Christmas tree.[LNB]The list included that elusive billionaire the club so desperately needs, swift healing and a swift return to the injured players and continued strength against the odds for David Moyes.[LNB]He added, 'I wish our Manager sufficient time in which to fully reflect upon precisely what it is he has achieved for our great club over the years - and a peaceful five minutes in which to enjoy the absolute knowledge that our thoughts and total support are with him as he plots our New Year revival'.[LNB]Never a truer word spoken.[LNB]So in the same spirit as Bill, I've drawn up a Christmas wish-list for some of Everton's players.[LNB]Carlo Nash - More chances to get some match practice in. The F.A. Cup game against Carlisle game could be an option for the Evertonian.[LNB]Tony Hibbert - Plain and simple - a goal. Be it a winner or consolation, the fans will riot ![LNB]Leighton Baines - A plane ticket to South Africa in June. With a couple of friendly matches coming up soon for Capello's men, and injuries to Lescott and Bridge surely the Italian has to take into account Baines' impressive displays so far this season.[LNB]Johnny Heitinga - A game in Europe. His old club Athletico Madrid need to be knocked out of the Europa League so he can play in the competition. Bless those not at all awkward Uefa Rules .[LNB]Phil Jagielka - A chance to wear the new Everton home kit he so desperately wants . Oh, and a seat next to Baines to South Africa.[LNB]Diniyar Bilyaletdinov - New football boots. Preferably not the red stripe ones he tried to colour in with a black marker pen ![LNB]Louis Saha - A signed contract. Louis is free to talk to foreign clubs from January, let's hope it gets signed as quickly as he scored in the FA Cup Final.[LNB]Mikel Arteta - The all clear from the physios and surgeons. The Gwladys Street faithful desperately want to sing their famous "best little Spaniard we know" chant to him once again.[LNB]James Vaughan - A lady that goes by the name of Luck. The 21-year-old's attitude is second to none, and he deserves a bit of fortune for once.
