2021/22 Richarlison

[Pettifogger]

Let me start by saying I'm glad negative rep is gone because I'd be nuked to hell for this.

I think we overpaid on him when we bought him. To me 50m, and anything north of that, is an okay price for him at this stage. He's a good player, and sometimes a very good player, but not more than that. That being said his his spirit and his fight have been enormous for us.

We don't have a bottomless pot of cash so we need to sell players and recycle the squad from time to time. It's necessary if we want to progress.

Losing the player doesn't bother me at all. What I am fussed about is our ability to recycle that money well. That's the most important thing in all of this.

You all know a lot more about how it really works than me.

But it's a rebuild and he's probably a luxury during one. In my view we need steady hands guiding youthful talent. Of course, Everton have been woeful at finding both, but I do think settling in for a multi-year rebuild with Lampard is the right move for the club. Things need to be torn down and rebuilt with purpose. Hopefully that's what happens.

i am now venting at the board to f off to space

It's a long way to May. Pace yourself.

We'll have a whole World Cup to panic about Everton's league position through, too.

Well not really. We spent £1.5m last year for the same reason - p&l - and Usmanov was still on board then.

We have money, but we can only spend what we bring in, due to those rules.

which is crippling us

 

[chazzle_dazzle]

Why?
We had Rafael, the worst injuries in the prem and all the wrong decisions against us. Won’t happen this year

? I would ask if you're new to Everton, but you're not

Pickford and Richarlison are not Everton legends, what a ridiculous last few pages.

 

[MikeH72]

So did Michael Keane technically.

I think its ridiculous that people try and tell other people who their heroes should be.

 

[Wayno]

A modern day Richarlison would have scored over 120 goals in the 1928 season lads.

That is quite simply not what anyone has said.

yep but we’ve not sold him mate

 

[MikeH72]

yep but we’ve not sold him mate

But he’s not an Everton legend is he? Is Iwobi an Everton legend? Dunno if we’d have stayed up without his goal against Newcastle.
