I'm not saying it isn't true or that he won't end up leaving.

But will people - grown ups, ffs - stop believing the first thing they see from one of the most unreliable outlets going?

What makes me think there is truth in it, is that they said he stopped short at handing in a transfer request. That has all types of financial repercussions for a player.

Nothing about believing sky sports. It's just the logical view to believe that we are trying to get a much bigger fee. And if we do get a much bigger bid, probably around 30m, then he'll be sold. It's hard to see any logic in keeping an unhappy player who will soon need replaced in any case. Unless the money isn't good enough.
 
The bid was rejected. Multiple reliable journalists had the information, and shared it, last night.

It's really not cloak and dagger stuff. When Everton want info out there, they use the same people.

Sky don't get much, and they certainly don't get much before anyone else.

Players rule the roost over clubs these days. Sad fact. I'd be surprised if he's still here come the end of Jan
 
He's not irreplaceable, but if we don't replace him, we are done and dusted. It'll be 3 CBs every match. He deserves his shot at PSG, he's been fantastic for us.

I thought Thiago Mendes could do the job, but not sure he'd get a work permit and we really need 2 DMs. If Morgan isn't going to play, he needs to go as well. Wilmar Barrios could replace him. Just some ideas of players that might be available.

I'm not a fan of Lobotka.

Covering all angles... hedging their bets.

Honestly, I know people who work for Sky. It's how they are told to write. Nothing is ever concrete, even if presented as such.

It could well be true, but I'd say wait for more than one consistently unreliable source before people start jumping to conclusions.

I wouldn't be surprised if he did want to leave. Heck, I would want to leave for PSG. But Sky like their drama and at the moment this is literally the only story now Chelsea have rejected Hudson-Odoi's request.

Absolutely nothing wrong with 3 CBs, if anything our best performance of the season at Burnley came with 3 CBs, the system suits the players we have & its a system that doesnt rely on a Gueye type player.
 

A great player.

Excellent club to move to

Shame to see him go.

29 year old = PEAK

Final pay day

BUT he is worth over £30m so pay up PSG


Any other player PSG buy.

From any other club.

No haggling.....they pay the asking price.

But when it is EFC......they haggle over a bit of (for them) chump change :(

How Everton is that.....
 
As much as his forward passing frustrates me, our midfield will be even more of a walk-through without him
