lol lol lol

The soucrce for this infor....no dont bother...a tweet off an ITK?

Same source I think.

Perhaps others too, although unsure what the root of it is

So Everton sell one of their best players to a direct rival - ergo gaining a valuable sum of money to allow us to buy players in 2 essential parts of the field we are lacking (CB and CM)

Instead of focusing on those positions, we decide to again assist our direct rival by taking one of their unwanted players - in the one position of the field we're most adequately covered - and also directly blocking the path of one of our own players (Gordon) who has only recently found his feet within the team.

Sounds like Peak Everton to me

Or not

This has been covered, he's working as an intermediary.

Ah ok, thank you.

 

[blulouie]

We already have richy, Gordon, Townsend and gray to keep him out, the last position we need is another winger

This is the point
Far greater need for a CB & CM.

It’s mad how Daves agenda works, because when Niasse was brought in and looked like a Sunday league player, it was an anonymous third party who forced him into the club

Yeah Martinez apparently had no hand in it

Until Niasse scored a few goals under Koeman that is...

 

[MarkHollis]

There's a reason he can't get in the Villa team. He's not a good player at this level despite padding his stats with pens and if he comes here we will certainly find out to our detriment.

Signing another right footed winger is also idiotic

 

[Theoneandonly]

It suits the narrative for some.

We have no idea who decides on player targets now but the correct answer is Benitez... probably.

Rafael wants young homegrown stars.

Ah ok, thank you.

Don't thank me, thank elbobble.

To be honest I'd be surprised if Moshiri decided El Ghazi was a priority.

If we're in for him, I suspect Benitez thinks he can bring something out of his game - a bit like Townsend and Gray. I admit, other than his play off final goal and him doing alright against us, I couldn't tell you a lot about him - looks like the fella hit 10 league goals last season? In 28 games?

We could do with another winger - we're currently having to bring one on who has a broken foot.

If a 5 moan loan and temporary solution - what's all the cry arsing for?

I believe the offer is a loan with option to buy.

 

[longers]

Reminds me of the days when our peak transfer activity was signing people like Simon Davies

 

[mightymoyes]

The answer is never to spend big money on Walcott, Tosun, Iwobi etc. Tosun and Iwobi in particular I was very critical about. We spent a few bob on an interim manager in Allardyce and a DOF on borrowed time - we can't be doing that again.

Sometimes you have to play the hand you have - if we've got no money to spend, then a temporary loan for a young player who could give us something off the bench who scored 10 league goals last season isn't worth the meltdown.

If we have money, it's perhaps not wise to give it to a manager who could be sacked in a fortnight.

pretty sure they were down to moshiri too.
we need someone to interview walsh and brands about what goes on

Rafael wants young homegrown stars.

No he doesn’t

Now now, he had 'inside intel' on that.
