Barnfred 55
Player Valuation: £80m
Yeah Wayne's doing a great job at Derby and I wouldn't be unhappy if he came. But he's also somebody who splits opinions and I think we may still be a polarised fan base if he came and it's time to come together.Not Martinez although I did like him at the time. Belgium have won bog all despite the players they have and being ranked 1 for ages. I'd like Rooney. What he is doing at Derby, who are in a far worse mess than Everton, is astonishing and up until about a week ago was barely mentioned. There's something about Lampard that makes me dislike him intensely. I don't really know what. Didn't think he set the world on fire at Chelsea. The disappointed Evertonian inside me is expecting another underwhelming appointment like Koeman or Benitez. Step forward Nuno Espirito Sanchez. Curve ball - I wouldn't mind the Danish guy from Brentford. I'm so over southern Europeans. Hasn't worked! ??
I also know what you mean about Lampard. As a player he had an arrogance about him. But he didn't get on with Gerrard and that's good enough for me. The enemy of my enemy is my friend and all that ?
Seriously I liked what Lampard did in his first season. He gave their young players an opportunity and Tuchel is now benefitting from that. Second season the board brought in about 8 new faces and I thought Lampard struggled to find the right balance.
I think Everton need to invest in young players going forward and we need a manager who has the balls to play them. Gordon's been arguably our best player since injuries forced his hand.
