Ademola Lookman

[davek]

Which striker?

I've offered examples.

Why would he have done that when he was desperate to stay in Germany?

Because he's a professional football player. Work hard at Everton and earn your move away to a huge club or sulk and move to Leipzig. Regardless, we have made a nice profit from someone who has done nothing.

Dowell in the Championship has proven himself as a quality player; but there's only so much a class player can do in such an environment with lesser players. Barkely found that too.

Stop. No he hasn't. He's been inconsistent. Lookman would destroy the championship. He's a MUCH better player.

Hahahahaha

Now you are just being ridiculous.

So he’s hurtling back for another season on loan in the championship and no premier league clubs want him, because he’s that good right?

Now can you see why people think you are a troll? lol

Ok explain how it was a bad decision please Dave? We didn’t lose any money and the up side was that he could have broken through. They seem talent and wanted to see if they could develop him, didn’t work out and we lost nothing

Because we could have had that cash earlier and used it to invest in a striker last summer and had a player up to speed with Everton and no doubt saving the club the extra cash that strikers will go for this summer...it's an upward spiral in fees and we'll pay more this summer.

The love in for this guy is astonishing.

He seems to be rated higher than DCL and Davies on here but unlike those two he’s done nothing here.

I can’t wait to see the back of him. No doubt one of our resident ‘internet scouts’ will keep a thread going highlighting his xG and passes completed in ‘period 21’ and will sneer at his detractors every time he does a good run in a farmers league.

i would be very interested to see his heat maps if I am being honest

 

[Brisan123]

There's always an excuse trundled out for Brands.

The far more peresuasive assessment is to ask what tangible benefit was made through delaying his departure from last summer to this one. There are none. Ergo, it was a bad decision.

In hindsight no tangible benefit.
But thats hindsight for you
but you knew that dave

 

[Brisan123]

Anyone of us could see that Lookman's head wasn't in this club. The DoF should easily have seen it and acted decisively.

12 months it took him to reach the right decision on Lookman. That is not impressive.

Unbelievable the slack this feller is cut.

Maybe Silva thought he could turn him around,
But you knew that dave

 

[mill]

I've offered examples.

Do you think those you’d mentioned are good enough?

 

[larbert toffee]

His imminent departure means I have had to spend time and bother changing my avatar pfft.

 

[vinvinvin]

This sentence means that all your posts should be vetted before they see the light of this forum.

Their beer is overrated too.

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

He takes resonsibility too, but the buck stops with the DoF. If it doesn't, why is he here if his word is only as important as Silva's?

To be fair though Dave, if Brands gave no concern for Silva's word then you'd only be in here complaining that Silva is being undermined

Is ratfink gone yet?

We would have finished 7th in Germany too. This idea that it isn't a quality league is laughable. The PL's superiority comes exclusively from the "Big 6" and you may have noticed we aren't a part of that.

Over £10m profit on Lookman transfer fees, add that to Vlasic £6m profit and we've finally recouped the Davy Klaasen transfer fee and wages! Moving in the right direction
