Yeah, let's show what we're about by offering £25m for a player who's way over-valued at the (rumoured) £5m bid, that'll show everyone.

The list of lads who looked good and scored the winner against us at Goodison last year is pretty lengthy chicagoblue, StevO, Matt and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted August 24, 2021 Report Share Posted August 24, 2021 We have so many young players of our own we're shipping them out in lorry loads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makis Posted August 25, 2021 Report Share Posted August 25, 2021 We do buy young players, just like everyone else. Problem is finding a development path. Chelsea hoards youngsters and then send them out on loan all over Europe. Everton's development path doesn's seem to work as well, quite often the loans turn out bad (e.g. player not getting enough game time). Holgate, Branthwaite and Nkounkou from yesterday's lineup were all bought like this. But there are also failures, like Markelo who at 22 doesn't look like he's going to make much of an impact. And there are dozens of clubs that are looking at players like this so competition is fierce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makis Posted August 25, 2021 Report Share Posted August 25, 2021 And just like that, it was just reported Markelo has moved to PSV. Scouting is not the main issue but competition. Every half-decent club can afford a tool like Wyscout etc. where you can get all the stats you need and even video clips. So it's much easier to narrow down and that's why every promising player is quickly on the radar of every team. So the problem is convincing these lads to join Everton instead of a dozen other suitors, most with much better records developing youngsters.

Btay Posted August 26, 2021 Report Share Posted August 26, 2021 We just played and won a cup game with nkounkou, holgate, braithwaite kenny & Davies starting. Dom has also prospered through our academy after being bought for peanuts. I think we are doing okay in that regard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shukes Posted August 26, 2021 Report Share Posted August 26, 2021 I don’t think any reserve team would beat a championship team to be fair. This is proved each year with the U23s playing 3rd and 4th tier teams. Not saying that was our reserves, but it was mostly made up of bench players at best. And let’s face it, we had the better chances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markjazzbassist Posted August 26, 2021 Report Share Posted August 26, 2021 report says we wanted to sign him but the higher ups at everton didn't. i wonder is that an indictment on Brands or someone else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It actually says, "It’s understood that some staff at Goodison Park actually wanted Jebbison signed back then but people higher up at Everton chose not to strike a deal" which is a completely meaningless statement as it doesn't quantify where the line between the "staff" and the "higher ups" was drawn (maybe Jimmy Martin thought it was a good idea but nobody else did). Also anything starting with "It's understood" means the writer has no source, and no idea. When you interpret that as "we" wanted to sign him who exactly are you thinking "we" were?

Another day it goes 2-0 and potentially wrapped up before half time but for a marginal offside decision so it’s hard to say mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you interpret that as "we" wanted to sign him who exactly are you thinking "we" were? it always amazes me the rather poor standards of journalism in your country. what's even more sad is that i was fooled by them thanks mike, the bit you say on the "it's understood" is fascinating to me. essentially the whole article is made up, without a source, just a journo pontificating. i can't believe that is acceptable over there. i'm not saying america is the bastion of quality journalism (it's not), but there at least has to be a credible source, and depending on the publication, multiple credible sources that are vetted. fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me. i'm in the latter on this one.

Shukes Posted August 6, 2023 Report Share Posted August 6, 2023 I think now we should pay the 25m and maybe give them a couple of players as well. We offered 5 when he looked to be moving forward. Now he’s stagnated a bit…. Let’s offer more and a good £100k a week maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
