    Indeed. I would like to see it happen, no matter how much I hate his arrogance.

    Conflicting reports today. Ives said he was going and Everton confirmed the transfer, then the Galaxy put out a statement regarding talks, but no confirmation.

    Personally, I'm not convinced this is good, but I won't say its bad. He's only going for two months, so that works and playing in a running and counter attacking system could be helpful. If this was a permanent move, I wouldn't like it as I'd rather see him in Spain or France. For two months, its ok.

    I'm hoping he plays and plays well. There's not any pressure on him this time as Everton have no plans or money to buy him. Should be a good situation for him.

    Yes, that's a good point. Not much pressure for him to perform, but we should see a lot of him as Everton are absolutely raped by injuries (more so than Arsenal).

    I haven't been following Everton this year, other than to see that they're calling on Howard a lot. Will Donovan be used as a forward or attacking mid?
