2023/24 Demarai Gray

Lingering around like a curry fart in the top balcony during a 12:30 kick off.

So not training and Harrison been given his shirt number all without a deal being close. Really stupid by the club as if he ends up staying I cant imagine he will be giving his all.

Not great for maximising fee either, making it clear we absolutely don’t want him is a daft bargaining position to put yourself in. Other clubs saying players are not for sale as our offers creep up. We put our players on RightMove saying we want a quick sale.

I do think he will do well elsewhere. He has been the epitome of NOT playing with point to prove. Looks scared of the groans if he fails with a dribble or cross. Couple of stepovers and roll back to Myko. If he starts playing with a purpose he’ll do ok, but would royally pee me off.

For some reason he was gone as soon as the new coaching staff came in.

Can we just get him in the squad for now....cant afford to have one less attacking player available in an already very thin squad for forward options.

No thanks

 

[blueboy72]

Yes Sean let's just freeze out our second top goalscorer last season and any source of pace whatsoever in the entire squad. 99% of Everton fans would rather see him up front than Maupay.

He’s just as [Poor language removed] up front, see the Bournemouth game, when he was atrocious compared to maupay v Fulham, though I want maupay sold as well. But gray, May have pace but doesn’t know what to do with it. He also only got 2 prem goals from open play last season

Seems to have been handled really badly.

If they've got Harrison to play in that position fine.

But why cut him out altogether, just tells other clubs we'll accept anything closer we get to TDD.

 

[MikeH72]

He’ll be off on a free next year I suspect. No idea what happened to the Fulham interest.

 

[maccavennie]

Dyche needs to be questioned why he isn't using him if he isn't sold. 2 games where he should be at least on the bench and he's nowhere to be seen.

Be the only player to turn Saudi money down

Edit. Just looked them up and its a team with zero big names, not one of the ones signing the european players ffs.

Nothing more certain.

 

[Bedfordblue]

can’t see him going there, was under the impression he’s quite a devout / church going Christian.

 

[dutchblue54]

Hope there has been encouragement from player side lol. And what about the fee... .

Unless it involves women and money

They have Christian churches in Saudi Arabia, and Catholic ones.

Still, I don't expect him to leave his kid (who lives with his former partner) to go there.

So was Richard the Lionheart. It never stopped him.
