That was our choice though. Had we said 12 month loan, an detailed we would pay what we are paying him, I strongly suspect RM would have obliged.
If you're view is taht Tosun has more value to us, than them paying 40-80k (depending on reports) per week, we should keep him. The question must surely be, can we get a loan in, for betwen 40-80k per week (minus a fee) that will deliver us more than Tosun?
Real would have got the best deal for themselves, obviously the player had leverage given his wage and contract situation. Jamo was a risky signing, maybe he still is, hes a wonderful player but none of us would be surprised if he picked up an injury and was out for a month. So we are taking on a level of risk in that deal to.
Yes i defintiley do think there is value in Tosun - more then we are getting with this deal, which is why im think its a bad deal, we should be definitely looking for a return on him more then 50/100% of his wages over a four month loan. We could be back here in June. All the risks are ours, we have seen players boomarang back here and their value diminish following these loan deals.
We are far to nice and accommodating in our transfer business, we are massively poor on outs.
Hey PSG want a young center forward to bang in goals to help you win the league and CL for a year - no problem - heres Moise Kean.
Hey Southampton fancy rivaling us for a European spot this season - no problem heres Theo Walcott.
Hey Besikas fancy your previous top scorer back for nothing, just send him back when your done.
Thats a bad, bad trend and a well worn one - after Bolaise, Martina, Mirralas, Besic, Niasse all doing a boomarang, reducing in value and bleeding the club.
The guts of 70 mill in Everton investment, going out and impacting elsewhere. While i dont expect a full return i expect far more or something for that.
Meanwhile on Everton forums - fans screaming for attacking options.
We are far to nice in our outs dealings, we are far to nice to the players themselves, put their agents to work and let them realise some value to Everton.
