"The paperwork for the Brazilian forward was finalised on Saturday despite Sharjah announcing the transfer on Thursday."

Lol at including that in an official statement on the club website.

The worst PR team in the world. Change my mind.

A shame, too, since the club does so much good.
 

Trying to think of the last time we pulled a clubs pants down on a player we sold them ?
Need some help here, and don’t say Rom as that was big money at the time.

Rodwell is all that comes to mind.

Browning - £4/5M to China
Anichebe - £6M to WBA
Cleverley - £8M to Watford
Onyekuru - £12-£15M to Monaco. Had two unproductive loans in Turkey and now playing on loan in Belgium
Lookman - About £14/15M? Did nothing in Germany and went down with Fulham. Could come good eventually possibly.
Naismith - Near £10M to Norwich
Jelavic - £7M to Bradford?? Not sure but was clearly a busted flush.

Don't sound like much some of them but it's going back a few years when the market looked different.
 

His TM value is 12 mil, how can we be OK with 1 mil? And UAE clubs are v rich.
The value of a players contract can have a very big affect on a transfer value. If the player doesn't want to lose that money then he's not gonna move unless it's for a good deal. And clubs aren't always willing to match that wage AND spend a big transfer fee.

Rodriguez came to Everton on a free - because we were willing to take the wages off Madrid. Gareth Bale has been a similar story due to his massive contract he won't give up at Madrid.
 
I've had one; most people have had one. Who could possibly live in this world long enough without having one? You'd be inhuman not to be overcome at least once in that way.

But that is all besides the point here, it's a reach as an explanation for Bernards's comments, so dont be climbing on your high horse.

I've asked 3 or 4 times now: why is the club not even acknowledging his departure? Maybe you can explain it?
Not really the case Dave. If you have experienced a panic attack, or sat with someone who is experiencing one, it isn’t just one of those life moments and thankfully not.

This isn’t I am going to miss the train or I have hit reply to all on an email surge of adrenaline and blood pressure.

He has alluded that he will give his take and let’s see what he meant by his comments before calling him a rat.
