5 mil? i agree with whoever said that's an insult, consistent or not for the club, he's headlining, and that should be enough to generate the hype necessary to inflate his selling price.
faddy had an awesome goal against blackburn this season, and such close efforts against reading and ManUre, i feel like he's one step off from finding his scoring boots for the club.
as for the johnson / yakubu debate, you definitely can't just look at their numbers. defences play aj a lot closer, which opens up other holes that our players have been taking advantage of. yakubu's goals have been purely opportunistic, and had aj been in that position, he would have easily finished them. yakubu doesn't work hard, and has even been excluded from nigeria's squad for that reason, whereas i see AJ chasing down every ball.
back to Faddy, i think we need to keep him, to be honest i'd rather see yak go. plus does the club make a lot of money off him? i'm sure mcfadden shirt sales are through the roof in scotland.
5 strikers seems like a lot, but vaughan and aj seem to frequently have injury woes which we need to be ready for, if something were to happen to anichebe or yak, i don't want to hav only one reasonable striking option.
in short, keep him, inconsistency is the name of the game for everton players, but thus far it seems like someones always gonna be on for atleast one game, and we're a team that wins as a team, we don't depend on players that consistently put it away (except lescott

). My point is noone can be expected to score almost every game, so if someone comes up big every once in a while they're worth it. if we keep faddy on our bench, throw him in around the 60th / 70th minute every once in a while and give him a chance to make something happen, i'm sure he'll produce enough to make it worth our while to keep him.
