Ex-Everton defender Weir: Fans will love Jelavic

Submitted by tribalfootball.com on Thu, 02/02/2012 - 03:11

Former Everton defender David Weir says Blues fans will love Nikica Jelavic.

Weir played with Jelavic at Rangers.

He told evertonfc.com: "He is a good player. He is not a selfish player, he is a team player. He has a bit of everything and isn't purely one of those strikers who is just a finisher. He will come and get involved, set things up as well and help his team. He has got a lot of attributes.

"He is primarily right-footed but he can definitely finish well with his left. He is more than capable of scoring with both feet and his head.

"I think it is great for Everton. Obviously for me, leaving Rangers, I would have liked him to stay at Rangers because he is a big part of the Rangers team but if he was going to go anywhere obviously Everton would have been my first choice and I am delighted for him and the Club. It is a great opportunity for him to play in a great league for a great club. It is a great opportunity for him."
