I don't think the money being discussed is anything less than what he'd get elsewhere.

If Garbutt goes, I imagine it'll be because he doesn't believe he's going to get many opportunities to play at Everton.
 

Also. Don't think he looks particuly out of shape there, that photo is a bad one, and he is wearing his birds jeans I reckon. Gravity defying.

I think he arrived at Man U on the back of Moyes leaving, seeing a lad of 18 on £100k a week and £30m price tag, I think LVG just came down like a ton of bricks I him as an example.

It happened to De Gea as well. I think LS will be the eventual number 1 LB for England and UTD I about 5 years if he gets over this difficult stage

Oh yeah, wasn't there something about De Gea eating lots of tacos?

Shaw and Barkley seemd to become good friends during the World Cup, LVG's treatment of Shaw (and Hodgson's of
Ross) might make Barkley a little bit keener to stay with a coach he seems to get on with. Even if he does play him on the wing ffs.

yup, most players just want regular first team footie especially young players. Unfortunately with Garbutt he's plays at our strongest position depth wise

I know what you mean of course, but it did give me a good chuckle to describe someone who's started premier league football matches as someone doing a hobby that they're relatively unproven at.

ha, i know. it's not really proven at a level that requires 25k imo though. thinking on football terms because they're wages can't be compared to normal life.

football's a hobby i stand by that. most people hate their jobs, i.d say about 0.0000000000000001% of pro footballers say they hate their job.

Luke Garbutt is likely to wait until the end of the season before making a decision on his Everton future.

The 21-year-old full-back is out of contract this summer but has been offered a new deal by the Blues.

Everton are determined to keep hold of the England under-21 defender who has enjoyed a breakthrough season at Goodison this term.

Garbutt has featured nine times this season and has quickly established himself as a fan favourite after a number of impressive performances, particularly in the Europa League.

The talented former Leeds United youngster is believed to want to stay at Everton but is currently mulling over the club’s offer while considering the possibility of first-team football elsewhere.
 

The lad looks decent, therefore I hope he stays, but if he doesn't want to play for us then I don't want him.

If he wanted to stay, he'd have signed by now. He's got bags of potential, and probably should've played more this season, but at the end of the day, he's been offered a good amount of money while unestablished - most others would bite hands off for that.

Doesn't seem like he'll stay, but it's not the end of the world. Agents, this.

Tbh his agent has probably advised waiting to see how the England U21 Euros go. If Garbutt gets ahead of Shaw (due to either injuries or performances) and England do well in the competition there will probably be some interesting offers on the table - if not then the one at Everton with a loan is a good option anyway.

If he advised him anything different he isn't really acting in his client's best interest.

And that's probably why he hasn't yet signed, no matter how generous the contract is in monetary terms.

The lad is nearly 22, and wants to be playing football more often than he has been and nobody can blame the lad for that.

If he leaves to get more regular playing time elsewhere, then good on the lad for wanting to play football rather than spend most on the season getting splinters in his backside.

This basically. He would like to play for Everton and clearly likes the club. He's not looking for more cash, he's looking for minutes. Not at all similar to sterling like.

Just hope we can work out a way that staying here can be best for his career and the club.
