There seems to be a weird divide here with him. He's never been crap so if you're saying that you're flat out wrong but he's also not been amazing or anything like that so to jump straight on the defensive is a bit weird. He's benefited massively by being our focal point these past few years with Digne, Sigurdsson and James among others there to provide assists, all the while having no competition really and with no one else scoring nearly enough. Without those 3 players this season Dom isn't half the player because he can't do things himself realistically Townsend is the only attacking player in the squad that compliments his play style, he's our best striker since Lukaku but that's not exactly much of a compliment given we weren't exactly blessed in the position.

Mentioning Lukaku too, at times he was a truly awful footballer on the pitch, we seem to forget that a bit but with him on the pitch you'd always have a chance of scoring, again though we had a far better and more creative team then. The best way to put it was Lukaku was a Champions League level striker playing for us when we were a mid-table / Europa League team, DCL is a mid-table / Europa League striker playing for us when we're relegation candidates.

It's not exactly a case of bad mouthing good players, Rom was great for us but poor at times because we were a worse team, he went off to United for a massive fee for us and did alright but went to Inter and was great because the step up in quality that suited him too, DCL will do the same, he's been poor at times for us and probably doesn't suit us playing wise and he'll move on for a good fee and probably be decent. I think Arsenal wouldn't be the spot for him, they're too much of a footballing side, he'd tear it up at Spurs, West Ham or even United honestly I think though although I don't think he'd hack the pressure at a club like United.
How is the spaghetti pensioners league a step up from playing at Man Utd?
 

In fairness, Eton Dom has divertingly attracted too much of my opprobium: his skirt- fancying tendencies care me not one jot. But they are a microcosm of everything that plagues this club...meaningless distraction to the real battle that engages the real Evertonian (i.e.those of us not paid over 50K a week to kick a ball about for 90 minutes in that time). Our team is a bunch of spineless, craven, useless mercenaries. Eton Dom wearing a skirt kind of represents that isolated disinterest. It yanks my chain...and I'm goin' to get vocal about it...and if it ruffles some feathers?...I don't give one.
I can see why you want to.yank your chain to him. However, these photos are not taken from the training ground, just from my basement.
 
if we can get anywhere near 30m for him, then sell, sell, sell.
No we have to get more than that, 60 million was quoted in the past, but realistically I would hope we could get 45/50m tbh that price would be great as he’s not even that good, decent at times but that’s it, can you get £50 million for decent? You can if we are buying actually you can get £50 for average if we are buying ??
