So made up that he has signed up.
The club must have outlined some serious ambitions to persuade him.
As long as they come to fruition I am sure that he , and us , will be happy.
The key for me is that if this were the Kenwright/Moshiri regime, Branthwaite would have been sold. These new owners have shown their seriousness with this.
Jarrad has played 75 times for Everton. Bill sold John Stones when he had reached 77...
Genuinely incredible that if he finishes his contract with us and leaves on a free, the entire financial outlay over all that time will be about 40 million. This lad is pretty much the best case scenario of any incoming transfer.
I feel so much more relaxed about the window since he signed. It proves to me that the club's honchos know a priority and how to act on it.
It will be tough to top this contract extension and JB's own words about it with any transfer
Paddy Boyland's newest article is saying that his salary has more than doubled (from £50k per week) and matches what he was being offered elsewhere. £120k p/w sounds plausible and would put him as one of our highest earners alongside Pickford.
Utterly ridiculous news story about "snubbing" Tottenham, that is one club that has been elevated way above it's station just because it got into the CL a few times. They've won F.A. They are not a bigger club than us, they've just finished above...
