I'd have taken Hojbjerg, but now having looked into Allan a bit more, he's clearly, at this point, the superior footballer.
I'll be delighted if we get this over the line and am glad we're going for more proven players for the midfield, as opposed to younger, high-potential gambles. I'd rather we did that in the forward positions.

I don't think Dave will be happy that someone has made him look like Ronald the Dutch Gerbil

No player is ever guaranteed to be a success in the Premier League........remember Shevchenko, one of the top players in Europe (signed for a UK record fee of over £30m by Chelsea) only lasted 18 months before being loaned back to AC Milan. Robinho (Man C), Veron (Man U) and Di Maria (Man U) all massive players in Europe at the time, massive transfer fees and failed spectacularly in the EPL. There is risk attached to every transfer but, in my humble opinion Allan, at under £30m is a risk well worth taking.

Paul Power joined you guys in '86 after leading us to promotion in '85.
I hope he wrestled that tie off Jim White whilst shouting he’s never getting any insider info off Mosh again.
Can’t wait to see contract lad in all his glory again!

Ha ha. I'm not sure how Reidy would take to being called a veteran when he joined us at 26.
Also, I had sort of discounted him because he'd already been with us a couple of years before we turned the corner after the New Year in 1984. But I guess he was injured the previous season and hardly played.
Just looked at Andy Gray too. He joined us in November 83, before his 28th birthday. I guess veterans were a tad younger in those days.

Tbf in those days you pretty much were done @ 30...Ha ha. I'm not sure how Reidy would take to being called a veteran when he joined us at 26.

Haha your right of course, but you must admit, they looked a whole lot older than they really were ! Tbh they looked a lot older because when we signed them, they'd both had had a lot of injuries and were seen as big risks. They would never pass our medicals today, I'll bet!

True.
But in fairness to Reidy, he was still playing top flight football at Southampton when he was 37.
Not the best player I saw play in an Everton shirt, but he's quite possibly my favourite.
According to plenty here you are now done at 26!

Reidy never even had a medical. Like, not ever. At any club.
