Arouna Kone

*Insert cutting remark about how he will be like a new signing here*

 

[madkiwi]

Thank goodness he didn't leave. I was getting worried with all the comments on "What will happen if Lukaku gets injured? " in the Transfer Thread, that we didn't have a plan.

Now we know.

Wouldn't be too disappointed he didn't leave, he's actually less of a problem than a few of the duds that did actually leave.

Kone won't be here when we start again in August, no way is he getting a new contract so we only have him here for a few more months, no problem.

Niasse and Cleverley are more of a problem and we could well be stuck with them for a good while longer.

True, plus if we were forced to put him in the first team at all he'd hopefully be thinking he needed some good performances to get a team interested in him for the summer.....

Fat Sam probably logged onto some Everton forums and seen us all celebrating his departure and had a last-minute change of heart.

I think we need some sort of cover until the summer, he's not ideal but I'd rather have him than not at the moment.

Why? He offers nothing. I'd rather have an extra midfielder than him anywhere near our attack. Hell, I'd rather have another defender on, as at least it'd be playing with XI players as opposed to feeling we're a man down with this loser on the field.

I'd rather play Calvert Lewin when fit.

Since Bolasie is dead Rom will need one of his bros at training. Although he already looks like he's adopted young Mola.

Won't play another minute for us, and come summer we can get that number off him as was a travesty him ever wearing it.

ermmm...think he is allowed to be friends with anyone

 

[stamullenblue]

...I don't think so. Not sure exactly what happened but suspect either us or Palace had a change of mind or terms couldn't be agreed.

They got Sakho and and said enough !

Not bezzies.

 

[Professor Toffee]

Maybe the availability of the Number 9 shirt in the summer will bring the Lukaku contract beyond the 99.99%

 

[Thomasc]

It's like waking up on Christmas morning to find Rudolph has left a massive turd in your stocking.

Actually, it's not that bad really, he's only got 6 months left then we will be virtually de-Wiganised.

 

[Steve Wigan]

Pure scumbag. Robbing wages when he could earn the same at so many other clubs and actually play. The worst type of 'professional' footballer.

So, a Cup winner who has fought back from a career threatening injury, and contributed to Lukakus scoring success, is popular in the team, has never complained about his 'lot', and has an excellent reputation amongst other professionals, and has contributed some goals including a hat trick to an Everton team which was by consensus playing badly is a 'pure scumbag'

That description my friend, is more suited to someone else. No names of course, but have a little think.
