The NSNO Everton Forums

As a fanbase I don't think we help sometimes, and it's not just strikers. We can be very unforgiving of young players in general at times.

Probably not unique to us as a fanbase, but just part of modern football. You can no longer afford to bed people in, the margins are so tight that we all want instant results. It's a part of why Moyes' approach to bedding people in is so unpopular at times.

Rooney’s development was letting him go to a team playing in Europe and challenging for honours.

Depressing views here.

Our only chance is hoping a big team accidentally lends us a world class talent?

We wont even be close to trouble this season so we should be giving him the majority of games to develop.
