2022/23 Demarai Gray

[Goat]

Not a team mate. Have they actually ever met each other?

I would imagine so mate, they all train at FF and do gym work together.

The kid was on the bench this season, they might have bumped into each other in the tunnel or something.

Genuinely don’t remember this.

Don't beat yourself up about it, lots of old people have bad memories.

Erm, ageism is only tolerated in the Ashley Young thread.

 

[SJB]

Anyhow, back on topic. Gray starts wide right tonight. Hopefully our Birmingham born Jamaican international can take the trophy home to Saudi Arabia.

 

[Librarian]

Sell

 

[Bob Elstone]

Not doing himself any favours with that comment.

I find it telling that you can easily see decordova Reid and Antonio are a class above, but demarai gray and Leon Bailey are not in this game right now.

Generally that’s how intense games like this go for the show pony type players. They don’t seem to want to be part of the scrap. Impressed with the shift Antonio is putting in and Decordova Reid is just an underrated player in general.

Goal: Bell
Assist: Gray

Gaucamole have it all to do from here.

Well they work at the same club and train in the same facility so I'd say it's likely. Maybe they're mates. Doesn't really matter does it he's just wishing him good luck FFS like any normal person

 

[Buckers]

Why not text him the same thing unless you are trying to provoke a reaction? Or do I just not understand the modern world?

People leave work places all the time and colleagues write in their leaving card saying "congrats" and "best of luck". His comment is not out of order or a slight on Everton. Mountains out of molehills on anything with you lot

He didn’t say good luck or congrats though did he?
He said ‘makes sense’ to leave Everton.
So it’s open to interpretation quite what he means, or what ‘makes sense’ for a highly thought of prospect to leave.
Makes sense because ISS would never make it, so take the offer?
Or makes sense to leave Everton because you’re too good for this outfit?
Don’t think anyone would argue that in actual fact it does make sense for him to go to Chelsea and likely earn more money.
However that sort of sentiment is best kept private imo, or it runs the risk of being interpreted as a slight on the club (whether intended or not). Which it has been by a number of the fans.

Hopefully following him out of the door

Maybe he’s just seen a load of young players never make a career out o the game and therefore has a different Viewpoint to most fans.
Honestly bedwetting over social media is dirge of the 21st centure
