I am not, just saying that something has driven a life long blue from the club and it's not money.

I think it may be a demanding hard taskmaster of a manager who wants the player to be the very best that he can be and feels that he is currently underperforming.

Now... to some players that is both a challenge and an opportunity.
To others it is a lack of appreciation.

John Stones looks like he is fast becoming the next Rodwell cautionary tale.

While that may be it won't faze him.

Fact of the matter is Stones stands a better chance winning trophies than we do right now and that seems to be what is motivating Ross to jib us off. He's spoke about winning stuff and CL before and Koeman has quotes from a few months back saying Ross wants to play CL. Turning down Chelsea shows it wasn't about the dosh but that he wants to play a part in a team winning things and he thinks Spurs are a better opportunity than Chelsea for him.

I think he should want to do it here but he's clearly lost faith in what we're trying to accomplish or simply just doesn't feel like sticking around and helping us get to that level when he can just get off and join another team already there.

Picked up abar £12k in his daily wages today did Ross.

Snake.

They'll be spread like wildfire soon enough I'd imagine.

You are messing. He didn't actually get his Everton tats removed?

 

[longers]

well if he's leaving to play for another club he'd look a bit of a tit with everton tatoos all over his arms.

Sleeve tats are horrendous anyway so fair play to him for coming to his senses, maybe he'll replace it with a giant cock in his support of his new club.

He wants to win trophies and he thinks he stands a better chance doing that with Pochettino and Spurs than with us. He's seen his 2 best mates in the squad drop us for clubs with a better chance to compete and he doesn't want to stick around now they've got off.

The only people driving Ross away from this club are Ross and his representatives who've told him he can do better elsewhere.

So he turned the league champs down

He had Roman numerals on his arm, not the Everton badge mate.

...so is Callum Connolly who is apparently on a season long loan.

But Niasse is not, and he is still here and fit.

Weren't they the date of his Everton debut or something similar?

 

[Efcjake]

Yeah, which if reports are too be believed could have something to do with Chelsea telling Conte not to speak to him causing him to question how much he would be involved. I think it is fairly clear that he has his next destination picked out.

 

[MikeH72]

Weren't they the date of his Everton debut or something similar?

Yeah they were, but honestly who'd guess that if they weren't told or even be arsed? If Sandro had the date of his Barcelona debut on his arm, would any of us actually want him to get it removed?
