Here's my inexpert hunch about Samuel Lino after learning who was a few minutes ago: there are no serious links, and he wants out. Connections are being made based on his desire to leave and Everton's well-publicized need for a right winger. But...
At his age he needs to play...he will not get enough minutes here unless our transfer window is poor which so far it has...but moyes is clearly looking at more experienced cm. For that reason he has to go on loan in a team where he will start...
And yet still waiting to hear on the verdict for the 115 charges...I guess this deal is very telling. They surely are confident that there will be no punishment
Hopefully we have more incomes for the next friendly...the lack of attacking quality available from the first team is frightening...beto looks already match fit. Great work ethic despite having poor service.
If you dont believe that its bizarre for a premier league team to have not a single right winger for preseason then im not sure what to say.
Yes theyre glorified run outs and yes a youth player or three will be used.
But from Jan until now...
Retained a loan player from last season for a further two years
Replaced DCL with Barry
Got the backup keeper sorted
Need at least three good players to come in ready to go and start before Leeds.
LOL.
We didn't save anything. We offered a lot more than any other club would and Villareal didn't need to sell, but expected Barry's value to have peaked this summer.
If Villareal expected clubs to come in for Barry and pay the release clause...
Let's continue to be tough negotiators, but then let's not complain if our squad is rubbish come the start of the season. Gana is a good example...lasted weeks, he wanted 2 years, and he got 2 years
