Imagine Liverpool signing him we would all laugh.

We are getting a lad from Southampton who was deemed not good enough.

Southampton who finished below us.

Stop kidding yourselves he's not good enough.

Spot on. A disgraceful signing this which also places a large burden on Coleman to come back 100% from his injury. How we couldn't find a cheap alternative I'll never know.

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

Bet you a £1 he doesn't.

I'll happily bet £10 for charity with you that Martina starts against Stoke (unless he's injured)

Deal?

 

[Steve Wigan]

Would you sign a striker who can't score but can take long throws? Ridiculous

I'm pretty sure we have, quite often.........

Well I'm going to have too now,Mikey.

Lovely

@GrandOldTeam do you have a specific charity set up this season like you did with Alder Hey?

If not, we can just donate the tenner to Everton in the Community

No probs mate,going down to Finch farm Monday to boot Coco.

Would rather have seen the lad Jonjoe Kenny get a few games.

 

[diggerdestroyer]

Would tom davis not be a much better option in right back until coleman returns. Think he would do well there.

 

[MikeH72]

He is going to start the season mate

I have no doubt about it

That's why it's an issue

I wouldn't be as bothered if he was a bench filler, but he's here to fill in for Sheamus until he's back, to the detriment of younger better players we already have on the books

And to the detriment of Everton when he gets absolutely folded in half by Hazard and Sane in the coming weeks.

X 3 years!

That's £3.75m. Let that figure sink in.

Well, quite

 

[Osamabindiesel]

I don't fancy him, but he would be a good fit for Giroud. Fantastic crosser

 

[Osamabindiesel]

He is awful. Ask any saints fan , he isn't a very good defender.

Sadly Thursday is a reflection of that


He isn't on top wages mate. I'd suggest he is only on about 25k at best.

So many of the recognizable wing-backs aren't great defenders though. I think Cuco's main purpose is to give us some presence out wide that we seriously lacked with Holgate. Cuco is by far the best crosser apart from Baines.

Still been robbed!
