  1. It's not an exaggeration at all. I'm not saying he's not worth the pricetag, far from it, I think he's a quality player and I loved him while he was here. I'm saying we'd be throwing money down the drain because there is absolutely no way we could recoup that money because he'll have no resale value because of his age. And that is not a situation a club like Everton cam afford to be in.

     

    Whats the alternative? West Brom spent £6mill on Shane Long, if he suceeds he might be worth £10-12mill but its a risk and might be worth next nothing at the end of this season if he flops. At least we know what we are getting with LD

  2. Be madness to let this happen if there is any truth in it. I thought Beckford started to look better and better as he adjusted to life in the Prem. It was a big step up for him and if he can build on last season will be a useful player.

    £3mill is pretty derisory really for a player who scored 10 goals last season, 8 in the league. How many goals did Shane Long manage when he played in the prem?

  3. Listening to the Arctic Monkeys first couple of albums again, quality music. I fear they have gone down hill with their recent stuff. First 2 albums written about gritty northern stuff with some very funny anecdotes and a take on life Sheffield. Then comes fame, fortune and a big house in Surrey, hardly the backdrop for tales of hard Sheffield life. organic food and fancy shoes dont float my boat

  4. I dont see the point in signing a tall striker if we dont solve our width problems and start putting crosses into the box to service the tall guy. Unless we just lump it long, oh the beautiful game

     

    I wouldnt be against Kranjcar or Benteke coming here but Benteke isnt going to make an immediate impact, he is one for the future and Kranjcar whilst happy to play left side of midfield is not the solution to pace and/or width on our left flank. That said to have a natural left midfielder may help Baines

  5. We could try Tim Howard up front and give Mucha a run in goal tongue.png

     

    For me Yobo is not that great a player. He has pace and strength, his pace has got him out of trouble more than once but as he ages and starts to lose his pace his lack of positioning sense and his inability to read a game will become more exposed. His concentration is not up to much either.

     

    Take the money and run
