We won't be getting 12.5m in way of a transfer fee surely. That has to be part of a package and including his wages for the remainder of his contract.

We would never make that deal. We have to be shedding enough in wages/getting enough of the transfer fee to make it worth the club's while to sell.

If we collected the fee and are subsidizing wages 100%, then we'll have paid 15.6 million (150,000 X 104) for a year's rental against collecting 12.5 million. If we get half the fee and get off the hook for the wages, it's even more attractive (basically a free rental for a year)

Any way you slice it, that's fantastic business by the club for the goals and points returned. Unfortunately, this was a low-stakes-poker deal and many of the high-stakes deals didn't work out so well this year.
 

Excellent player who piped his detractors right down, ending the season as the top scorer.

Glad he came back and proved the doubters wrong, and will now enjoy a new chapter in his career. A great move for all parties.
 
Shame it didn't end like he envisioned for all parties (hoisting a trophy) but this was the worst season possible for the "prodigal son returns". Still think he should have returned about 3 years earlier when he has re chance to run out his contract.
 
made up hes going, if were swerving Allardyce for horrible football hes got to be out the door aswell. hes painful to watch

Of course not. But the point still stands. It should be dead easy to replace Wayne in his current state. But nothing surprises me with Mr Stephen Walsh.

Thankfully that little squirrel faced fraud is getting volleyed into next week by Big Man Marcel.
 
Actually I doubt he's leaving 'Everton manager Sam Allardyce has said he wants Rooney to stay and dismissed suggestions England's record goal scorer will leave,'
