Ashley Williams

[anton66]

He's a 3/10 player. So he's average for our team.

 

[Khalekan]

I was delighted we signed him but now I see why was at Swansea for so many years.

 

[orly]

I was delighted when he signed but I'm shocked by his lack of fight or inspirational qualities. So unbelievably passive, he looks flat-footed and one of the first to give in when the games goes against us.

He's given up like the rest of them, rather than trying to galvanise the side. Really poor.

Biggest disappointment for me today . thought we had a leader at the back but he didn't want to know.

he's certainly got to pull his finger out mate because he was brought here for his leadership qualities and he seems to have caught the disease of looking utterly mince in an Everton shirt.

I want him to be giving everyone at the back a rollicking and getting stuck in.

 

[windymiller]

Why spend 12m on a player who had one or two seasons left in him when you could sign a younger player you can build around and doesn't need replacing and more money spent

Is what everyone with half a brain said at the time, only to be told to stop being a "cry arse" because "we're going to tear it up in Europe next year".

 

[windymiller]

Because he was a very good player availabile at a reasonable price for his abilities?

That's not really been the case though has it either in terms of "reasonable price" or "abilities".

an absolute yard dog, a bit Like Koeman in so far as he is a media darling, the reality is both are utter dung

 

[ToffeeTim]

Awful signing. Old, overpriced and far too reminiscent of Yobo with his uncontrollable urge to send it into orbit every time its at his feet.

SELL.

 

[Bluser]

It was at the time

 

[windymiller]

It was at the time

I politely disagree. £12M for a 32 year old was nuts. I said so at the time and I stand by it. I thought we would at least get a couple of good years though. I was wrong.

Bought him because we need a ready, proven PL CB at the time when Stones was sold. I do agree we shall go for younger players from now on not aging players with no resale values.

Yeah I seem to remember that happening as well. Always had misgivings about it unlike some like @MoutsGoat who were making out he was like Maldini or something and that we were going to 'tear it up'.

Yeah. Tear up our season tickets.

I remember you getting slated when calling it into question.

 

[Walken]

said he was a chump when we signed him, I'm cashing in because a chump he is
