We were actually in the game at last, then we make changes. How are we any stronger after: 

Patterson > Coleman

DCL > Maupay

Gana > Davies 

Davies on the wing?? 

Transfer Markt says "Everton have an option to buy the player for €5 million in 2023." 

Anyone know how true this is? Sounds like a no brainer 

Can't find a stream anywhere so frustrating 

He's definitely worth more to us than anyone would be willing to pay, for sure. I'm sure no-one would bother coming in for him anytime soon after how we dealt with the Gordon interest (fingers crossed) 

Christ is Longeran injured too? Is this guy going to be thrown in at the deep end? Squeaky bum time every time Begovic comes for the ball

Play like that every match with a reborn DCL and I think we'll be just fine

Has anyone been watching him at PSG since he left? (I haven't, by the way). He's at an age where he's obviously got a limited amount of seasons left in him - has he still got the same pace? I think it would be very naive to assume we're signing the same Gana that we sold 3 years ago. There must be a reason PSG wanted to let him go after a few years. 

Oh, and can we change the thread title and give the lad a fresh start please

8m is hardly nominal

Just asked my mate who's a die hard Coventry fan who said:

"No mate

Certainly not ready for the step up

I mean he’s a top striker for us

Scored 19 last season very talented footballer but not ready to step up" 

How refreshing is it when we sign players that fans are sad to see leave? How many times over the years have we seen fans ecstatic that they've offloaded their dross for over inflated prices? 

Welcome Conor!

If this comes through, surely we're going to be losing one of either Keane, Mina or Holgate? 

Wouldn't lose any sleep losing any two of those. Preferably Mina to get him off the wage book. We desperately need stability and a long term CB partnership 

Fuck me

Signed for 8, sold for 30, signing him back for 8.

Let's call it a 3 year loan with a 22m loan fee

With so many "let's all laugh at Everton" comments especially on BBC HYS - I'd love for this lad to have a worldie and shut everyone up. 

So many people look at stats to justify a player's worth it's ridiculous. How many assists would Son have got for Burnley last year, I can't imagine it'd be much more!

His last PL goal came against us so at least his next one can't come against us.

I've just jinxed him to score an own goal on his debut now, haven't I? Sorry.

Or he scores against us for his next team after skying sitters for 3 years

If we can't get anyone in I'd rather bed in a Godfrey Tarkowski partnership and see how that goes. Maybe through desperation! 

That pink monstrosity is the worst kit we've had in a long, long time. Who approved that bollocks? 

Surely all everton fans want him to play and do well for England, even if merely for his potential value

I don't think at this point it's really encouraging people to gamble who don't already. It's more to do with gambling companies getting more market exposure over competitors. I don't see an issue with it from that perspective. 

I very much doubt Frank will be trying to offload Dele after half a season. He'll want his own signings to work out and has several manager's worth of deadwood to clear out first. Sounds like nonsense to me

I call BS, everyone knows Levi's don't Bobble

Burnley would've been down even if Leeds had drew wouldn't they?

Correct. I was a few beers deep

2-0 down at 78 minutes then 3 goals in 5 minutes. Actually feel sorry for Liverpool a bit. 94th minute goal to keep Leeds up and send Burnley down... I'm shattered, can't imagine what I'd be like if we weren't safe  

Christ, the shite are gonna get it aren't they
