Kone Signs on 3 Year Deal

[Mety]

Nailed on top scorer for us in the Europa league next year!

What a season he's had.

What a season he's had.

And to think some questioned his signing.
Unlucky not to net against Stevenage Borough and rushed his shot against Hull.
Turned it around though with his performance stood by that Chang sign when the sponsor contract was extended.
Top class.

Eff me I just remembered his misses against Stevenage and Hull. Seems like beards ago.

Waste of money...such a poor player.

Spine of

Robles - Alcaraz - Osman - Kone

World class.

Get a grip. Barely played. Some of the people slating him in here slated the signing of McCarthy. I dread to think of the unwarranted stick 'our £13 million flop' would be getting now if was it him who'd picked that injury up after 2 semi-fit games for us.

Agree 100% mate...well posted

This sort of post winds me up.

If we signed an obvious donkey then he became injured after a couple of awful games since signing for us he'd still be a donkey.

Watching him at wigan he was poor and his past record is pretty terrible as well. Not sure why these posts keep appearing as if when he pulls on a blue shirt he will suddenly become better.

Hes an awful player who weve wasted 6mil on and has no resale value and has 2 years left on his contract. Basically Alcaraz but signed for money which could have been put to better use.

He will have plenty of opportunities/ games next season

Totally agree, Myth Buthter (Buthter ith a thtrange name for a lady by the way )

But theriouthly - erm, seriously, when it comes to those who will never learn, I am beginning to think it's better to just read it, shake your head and smile knowingly. Also, the thing I've learnt about banging your head against a brick wall is that it hurts less when you stop doing it.

Will prove people wrong next season

....I'm ok with Kone. I think he's one of those polar footballers, capable of the audacious and atrocious. This season we've played with one recognised, out and out Centre Forward. Considering this, its amazing that we've done so well. Had Kone been available it could only have made a positive difference. He might surprise a few next season.

Not a like for like comparison is it mate?

How old will McCarthy be? Is his game based on pace? Does he deliberately starve himself every so often, increasing his chances of injury?

Kone was a bad signing. I'll be amazed if plays forty games in his entire Everton career. Feel free to vault me if he does.

 

[Royal Blue Jersey]

Kone will score 10+ next season including an FA Cup final winner.
Viva Aroune

Christ this theread got bumped and for a moment I thought we'd signed him for an extra year...
