He has half of Lookman's talent, but he's twice the player. Make of that what you will...

It isn't exactly that though is it? Brands hasn't really made a decision yet. Walsh bought him and never did anything to show how he felt about him after that. Unsworth got him into the team a few times and was in charge for 6 weeks so that's nothing concrete. And Boothroyd dropped him more do to the fact that we weren't giving him club minutes and other players were.
So it's more like Silva, Allardyce, Koeman which is two failures and a TBD on one side and a club that specializes in signing young talents on the other. Obviously I go the other way but if you like your group that's your choice.
Im not gonna side with a club that wasnt even formed 10 years ago.
Proper shady orga that Redbull.

What did you want him to do?
Send him little love notes?
Take him for candlelit dinners?
Offer to adopt him before he pissed off to Germany cos he was homesick?
The lad doesn't want to be here.
The sooner he's gone the better
This is like reading a bunch of daily mail writers chat about Sterling

I don't disagree but they have been exceptional at identifying good players. Even the few misses have been smart money that they've recovered like the Burke lad who is at West Brom now. I trust their scouting more than ours. Brands could change that by the end of the window.
Its much easier for them, mostly with the way the work permits work, plus they have teams all over the place to work around them.
Plus DAS SPL is a vastly inferior league.

The only thing RBL specialise in is making a quick turnover on players, none ever seem to stay there that long. A club who specialise in youth talent would be Ajax surely?

It's funny you should mention him because a lot of the criticism of Lookman sounds eerily similar. And I'm pretty sure the RS did "good business" at the time. Now he's a 100m level player.
It's a fair point mate, feels a bit uncomfortable reading through this to be honest. I've never seen such desire for someone to fail, especially as he has always came across pretty well in my opinion

The Bundesliga is inferior now but it isn't a huge gap yet. It will be in 5 years because of how much money the Prem pumps in but the last 5 it has been even. This is kind of the breaking point.
And yeah they do have a lot of advantages but they don't spend astronomically and have built a CL squad. It's a system we should be stealing idea from.
They just look good cos they basically have 4 teams.
If every team in the world had 3 feeder teams they would look as good.
It allows them to place the players in leagues which they will perform.
I did have a little look at their transfers tho and I didnt find a single player that had left them and shone elsewhere.
I guess you see him as a black football player?
I dont.
I see him as a spoilt little brat.

I have no desire whatsoever to ever see any player fail in an Everton shirt. Just as I see, IMO, no desire from Lookman to make a success of his time here.
