and it doesnt mean he is either mate, so why lose your head over it?
Isn't there just a chance he is being brought in to give us depth?

We need one big one in to convince others. This does the opposite. Yes I admit I've cracked and am being irrational tonight. But I'm frustrated and worried.
Genuine question - do you think any player with ambition would see this signing as anything other than underwhelming?
They have brains after all. If they want to win things, they won't be joining a club signing Idrissa Gueye.
That's the issue - it's the timing of it. If Gueye joins next week after we grab Mata/Witsel etc., then fine. But this isn't putting our best foot forward is it?

Just had a look on a villa forum to see their opinion of him. They don't sound to bothered about him. Quotes that stood out to me were '£7.1 million? SELL SELL SELL!' and 'he didn't exactly set the world alight.'

GOT would go into full meltdown, with servers overheating and network links melting.
It would be superb.

The way I see it , hiring Walsh as dof means that sometimes we will sign players who won't be expensive or exciting but turn out to be great buys. Some will flop but some will be great and really fit into a role
So personal my I'm not going to judge a single player we sign until we see them actually playing in a blue shirt . If we sign this fella then great, I imagine he can do something that our people in charge see would be good for the team. Price is low and if he fails then least we didn't take a gamble on him.

Because if we believe Moshiri and we actually mean to compete, then this signing would send a horrible message to those who we need to attract so we can actually compete.
As said, I actually rate Gueye a bit - B-tier player but good for the squad, adds depth, an engine and a reliability well beyond the likes of Gibson etc. - but this should be the "fill the gaps" type of signing in mid to late August after we've roped in the big guns.

I think few would complain if this guy was purchased from Lille. It's the Aston Villa of it all that seems to make you all crazy. Why have we brought in a DoF who specializes in finding talent if not to find and recruit talent?

Oh behave, the timing of signings isn't something that's very controllable. If we sign this lad, other players aren't going to look at it in judging whether or not come here. We've finished 11th in the last two seasons, the main reason big signings will be made is if we offer them enough money to come here.
Bring actual talent in first, then Moneyball the £5-10m punts with the leftovers, many of which will come available when the Everton project is defined by the big signings.

Tbh I think we have enough mediocre midfielders without having to add to the pile.
