Transfer Rumour Theo Walcott

[Pittsburgh Footy]

IN today's market 20 million pounds, even for a 28 year old, is pretty good business. He certainly makes us better going forward, can't see how anyone can dispute that.

 

[Petit]

And when those youth players evolve in to consistently high performing talents, other clubs buy them from us. E.g. Lukaku, Stones, Barkley.

Yes, that’s what happens.

For the money being paid it's relatively low risk and he's certainly better than what we have. He's 29 soon and still hasn't kicked on to the level everybody expected when he first burst on to the scene but with the World Cup coming up and a fresh start there is no better chance for him to get himself back in contention.

League wise he's only hit double figures twice in his career but I think here there is going to be more of a focus on him here and as seen with Chamberlain it seems Wenger has gone stale when it comes to getting the best from his players.

Good enough for Dortmund, not Everton though eh?

Yeah mate who tf are Dortmund anyway? Do they not know who we are?? We are EVERTON! The (5th or 6th?) mightiest club in this land! We should demand only the best to get back to our rightful place of 1984-87! WOTZ ARE MOTTO?!

Have to laugh at all the "we can't buy short term for these fees" nonsense. You cannot buy only long term players. We have a lot of young players playing for us right now. Pickford, Kenny, DCL, Davies and Lookman. You need a blend of older/younger players. We are investing heavily in our future, but you need seasoned players to help them along.

 

[The T-Dex]

Good technique you say

Up Everton!

that must be league stats?

He's scored 108 goals in 314 appearances all in all, I think...

Yeah, and its also skewed by his early seasons. He played a number of seasons in the league before he even turned 21, and scored 23 goals in 160 appearances. After that season he then scored 90 in 262.

Stats wise, since turning 21 he has a goal or assist ever 108 minutes.

 

[Hogwild]

In fairness, if we get a striker (Tosun) a quick winger (Walcott) and a left-back this window, whilst clearing some of the deadwood (relatively newly-accumulated deadwood or old) in the meantime, it'll have been a good window, in the main.

We need to win some actual matches as well, like.

Exactly this.

 

[Hickson9]

Decent signing, potential to be very good.

We've got the top floor of the Liver Building now

Make it happen Moshy

Sadly he's the contents of a Findus Crispy pancacke now

She consented officer

 

[Petit]

I’d like to see him through the middle with Tosun and Gylfi playing just behind them. Would be a real handful for any team.

Yeah sorry Toff, that was league stats.
