Player Valuation: £60m
The lack of self awareness although predictable still shocks
Yeah, but say he takes a pay cut due to his age. It might make financial sense to keep him vs. spending more for someone who will only do the same sort of performance levels.I’d politely suggest getting the reported £120k a week free’d up for a midfielder who actually imposes himself upon and can affect a game is way more important than appeasing an over-the-hill cart horse in the making.
What's the going rate for sitting on a football?Yeah, but say he takes a pay cut due to his age. It might make financial sense to keep him vs. spending more for someone who will only do the same sort of performance levels.

Saying, "I'm willing to take a big paycut" isn't a very good negotiating strategy!He’s not going to take a pay cut, he’s made that quite clear.
Too bad, there's probably someone out there willing to fork out more than 100k per week on him then.Saying, "I'm willing to take a big paycut" isn't a very good negotiating strategy!
I had to go and watch this because I couldn't believe he'd actually say itWell, the midfielder has clapped back at the supporters who say this, as speaking to the Fozcast, Doucoure has made his stance very clear.
“I see Everton fans saying to lower my wages. I’m amazed, I deserve to have my salary right now,” Doucoure said.
“To be honest, I won’t readjust my salary to stay at the club. I’ve seen Mo Salah get a pay rise.
“I’m playing every season, I’m important for the club, no, I should have an increase!”
“People talk about my salary, and I’m just surprised, like, no, I’m sorry, I don’t agree with this.”
Bye bye abdoulaye
If Moyes brings him back in ahead of Alcaraz then he’s a massive bellend.
Play it to the Fulham squad tomorrow at 2:59pm?I had to go and watch this because I couldn't believe he'd actually say it
I'm in a semi-state of shock
maybe sign both?
He could offer to play for free for me… and I’d still wish him well before closing the door on himYeah, but say he takes a pay cut due to his age. It might make financial sense to keep him vs. spending more for someone who will only do the same sort of performance levels.
To me, the no spring chicken comment is essentially saying, there will be an offer, but it will be nowhere near your current wages due to your age.The no spring chicken comment is actually the bit that has been concerned.
If he’s not getting a new contract then there’s no reason to kick a man when he’s down. Makes me think he’ll be getting an offer
Spent virtually his entire prem career fighting relegationTo me, the no spring chicken comment is essentially saying, there will be an offer, but it will be nowhere near your current wages due to your age.
To which doucoure has made it clear how highly he regards himself and that he feels he is still vital to the team so should be getting a pay rise despite already being our top earner.
He thinks he still has 3/4 years at this level, he will want guaranteed starts and on similar wages. Leeds or another relegation team can have him because that’s the standard his play is suited for. When they need a player to run a lot and try to press. It’s why we could never progress with him. Because trying to push top half you need more technical play.
