Demarai Gray scoring 12 goals in 10 games, that might happen on your FIFA career mode, in real life though there’s more chance of me banging Angela White. ...

Because realistically that’s his level. Fair enough. I expect you to do a bit better than signing the likes of Demarai though. Maybe Rafael’s ambition is to finish 17th and not challenge for Europe.

So Demarai is now officially an Everton player, good luck to you. As I said on here the other day, it might be a low risk signing for you guys and wage wise it makes sense, but this is a signing I thoroughly expected a newly promoted team, or a team hoping for Premier League promotion to make...

My opinion probably don’t count for much on this one, but Leicester were linked with him last summer too, our fans were also very split. I just couldn’t imagine him crossing a ball into Vardy & Iheanacho and getting decent success. But I can imagine him crossing a ball into Calvert-Lewin and...

In full agreement mate, especially with paragraphs 2 & 3, that’s where the problem lies with you. You may have had success with signing players for shrewd prices, selling them on for bigger fees; however from a opposition standpoint you probably don’t do it often enough and most importantly...

As I just said to another poster, you can get in players that will give you not only what you’re looking for, but much better quality and much better sell on value, it’s very doubtful Gray will give you that and Townsend definitely won’t. We’ve managed to acquire numerous players like that over...

lol:D that does help. But the strategy is the key thing mate, we’ll get more clubs spending the same amount on the likes of Tielemans, Maddison and such like the future. But you can also make cheap shrewd signings and do the same, look at us with Mahrez & Kante, you did it with John Stones...

From a price and wage structure stand point, these types of signings are probably a sensible thing to do, from a quality stand point they are bizarre and perplexing, especially from a club like yourselves. You’ve thrown a lot of money at a lot of players over the years. We’ve spent 20-30...

Just this one. Because as windymiller expertly put, myself and some other Leicester fans are perplexed that you’re signing him, hence the visit ;)

If you took someone like Albrighton from us on the cheap, we’d have a reason to be sour. But Demarai Gray...nah we’re laughing.

No disrespect but this is the mentality I’d expect from a fan of a newly promoted side. He might be the type of player you need; however for a club like Everton I expect you to aspire higher and get in better. There’s many players out there, who can probably do what Demarai Gray does but...

After the first few season’s, in the end he just became a sporadic player who either made the bench or not even the match day squad. Puel & Rodgers gave him numerous chances, every now and then he’d pop up in the starting 11, he’d fail to take his chance, then he’d find himself back on the...

lollollol The last time we played football like that, was our title winning season when he first joined. This is why Leicester fans in particular laugh, whenever someone mentions Gray as speedy, skilful or even better a “talent”. Yes he is speedy, yes he is skilful; however he doesn’t utilise...

lol fair play with the optimism. Way things are looking nowadays, more chance of you signing Ayoze Perez from us, than us signing Iwobi & Tosun from you. Gray & Perez in one window, you‘ll be wanting to chuck yourself into the River Mersey if that happens.

I admire your optimism on him, but the chances of Demarai Gray suddenly becoming good is slim. The guy’s 25, had enough time with us to show his potential, was given numerous chances in the latter stages of his Leicester career, both by Puel & Rodgers and failed to take them. It’s not...
