19. Christian Atsu - Everloan strikes again
Everton boss Roberto Martinez on winger Christian Atsu, who has signed on a season-long loan from Chelsea: "Christian can develop unforgettable memories at Everton and we hope at the end of this 10-month period he is a better player.
"I expect a bit of an adaptation period because he has not played in the Premier League, how long that is going to be is impossible to tell.
"Physically he is in a good moment and it is more about just giving him the time to adapt. The way he played in the World Cup with Ghana, the way he adapted to the conditions in Brazil, I am confident his adaptation period will be short."
Christian Atsu is up now at the Evertonnews conference and the softly-spoken winger says he is proud to have joined the club.
"It is a really good move for me because they play good football and are a hard-working team. They also have a great coach with fantastic fans.
"This is my first season in the Premier League and it is a really high level or me. It is a big opportunity to prove myself."

Read somewhere that he is described in Ghana as the Ghanian Messi! I like that!

Atsu scored on his debut for Ghana in 2012 and featured in the Africa Cup of Nations earlier this year.
Having begun his football education at the Feyenoord Academy in Ghana, Atsu was signed by then Porto coach Andres Villas-Boas in 2010.
He was immediately loaned out to fellow Portuguese side Rio Ave.
Two goals in his first four outings for Ghana earned him the nickname the 'Ghanaian Messi'.
Atsu was quick, however, to play down any comparisons with the Argentine.
He told BBC Sport last Septemeber: "Messi is my idol. There's no Ghanaian Messi, there is no other Messi in this world."
"I can never play even 1% of what Messi is doing. It's impossible."

Re: 19. Christian Atsu - Everloan strikes again
Asked about his long-term future at Chelsea, Atsu said: “I can't tell you the future.
"I don't know how long it will take to get back to Chelsea but right now I am really focused on Everton and at the end of the season we will see.”
“Looking at the players Chelsea have, my game time would be not much. So Everton is a really good club and I am here to work hard and help the team.
“I had possibilities to go elsewhere but I chose Everton.”
Has he been bitten already, does he want to stay
Once a Ghanaian Always a blue eh

He can't really say that yet, nor can Martinez, If he enjoys his football and helps the team, the fans will make it known ONE WAY OR ANOTHER IF HE SHOULD STAY.

He hasn't said that Everton were his boyhood club. Get rid!

Re: 19. Christian Atsu - Everloan strikes again
Christian Atsu can flourish for Everton in the second half of the season after fully adapting to the Premier League, predicts Roberto Martinez.
The on-loan winger has struggled to make an impact so far, starting just one league game and only providing Blues fans with fleeting glimpses of his potential from the bench.
But Martinez believes the 22-year-old, who he signed from Chelsea in the summer after being impressed with his displays for Ghana at the World Cup, will justify his faith once he becomes accustomed to the physical rigours of the English top flight.
Atsu joined Chelsea in summer 2013 but spent all of last term on loan at Dutch club Vitesse, and the Toffees boss urged fans to be patient with him.
He said: “We need to give him a little bit of time to adapt to the physicality of the Premier League just like any player but especially a winger. In other leagues referees allow less contact and they are a bit more protected.
“But I think the way he has adapted to the way we want to play so far has been impressive. He’s an intelligent footballer.
“It’s just making sure I can give him the right introduction to his role. With the minutes he’s had so far in the Europa League and other games he’s done well.
“I expect him to be himself in the second half of the season and he can be a very important player for us.
To be left-footed in that wing position with a real penetrative edge like he has can give you a big advantage.”
With Kevin Mirallas likely to miss the next four weeks as he recovers from a torn hamstring, Atsu might hope for further opportunities to show what he can do on the flanks.

Re: 19. Christian Atsu - Everloan strikes again
Sounds like the second half of the season we are going to be fucking boss. Good job since we will probably be 20 points adrift at the bottom of the table by then.

Fit again, just in time to feck off to the African nations. As a loan signing, ranks alongside Traore last season.

Re: 19. Christian Atsu - Everloan strikes again
Our wingers:
Mirallas - made of glass, wants out, big headed twat, good player
McGeady - waste of space, liability, fat cunt
Atsu - shite, off to African Nations Cup anyway
Pienaar - old, past it, injured anyway
Without our wingers, our full backs are fucked. Without our full backs, we have no attacking threat.
Doomed.
Mirallas - made of glass, wants out, big headed twat, good player
McGeady - waste of space, liability, fat cunt

Pieman was still able to make a huge contribution last season, and FooFoo was fantastic at times coming off the bench. Mirallas was committed to the club too, not angling for a transfer. Essentially, from last season, only McGready is the player that he was…. fucking shite.
Of course, it's not just about the wingers. Distin has shot his bolt, Barry has shot his bolt, Luka is the player he was at the end of last season rather than one we borrowed at the start of the season, Baines is either played out of position or with nobody alongside him, thus rendering him ineffective, Jags was given too long off after the world cup shambles and has had injury problems, Coleman has lost confidence or is being told not to bomb on or has not found any space due to our ponderous approach work, McCarthy has been injured and, according to rumours, also wants out, Nais continues to run around very hard but even he is struggling. Barkley.. fuck knows what's happened to him, I can see him ending up as one of those "what the fuck went wrong for him…" players.
The common denominator is Martinez. You slagged him from the start, but I was always hugely behind him Sacko. All I can say now is, to quote a 606 legend…
Wigan.
