2024/25 Abdoulaye Doucoure

[blue to the bone]

Confirmed.

His own message probably confirmed it before this

 

[PeregrineT]

Im disappointed we offered him another contract, but happy to see it was so low that he decided he would rather go elsewhere. I take it that clearly meant Moyes saw him as a backup only

 

[blue to the bone]

Enjoy all x

 

[ZissouBlue]

Flawed but very important player for us over the last five years. His importance has been symbolic of our mismanagement, but his commitment and timely goals deserve a lot of respect. Definitely wish him well. With that being said, I would have been fuming if we’d resigned him.

 

[Tony’s Carp]

Not a peep from the club, bit odd. Can’t take long to prepare the usual niceties.

 

[Drico]

Lovely communication. Such a shame for him that that wasn't his communication last week.

 

[Drico]

Right decision. He’s scored some important goals - for which we should all be thankful.

Glad we can part on good terms. Indeed I think it’s nice to part on good terms generally in life. So I wish him well. And Michael Keane. And anyone else who may be leaving us this summer, who though not quite of the required standard, are only human and no doubt did their best.

We can’t only be thankful to the best. The mediocre, even the poor, they all play their part.

By the same token, we can't pay top dollar to anyone but the best, either.

Seemed a good sort.

Worked his arse off.

Scored some important goals.

Played football like his laces were tied together.

The season is not over yet!

 

[Drico]

Alas, i feel we barely knew him.

Alas, but also true, I feel he barely knew a football.

On the OS now.

[Blue peter]

I’d have given him the hint his contract wasn’t being renewed by letting him parade around with the former players in his kit.

Genuinely though, good luck to him

 

[Mikey O]

A good message from him and he goes with my thanks for what he did in scoring those crucial goals.

I'm optimistic that we're starting to see a more business-like approach in terms of contract renewals.

Perfect summing up. He was the epitomy of why Evertons football made your eyes bleed but we needed a goal or two from him because the football was so bad with the likes of him in the team that we were looking for last day goals to stay up.
Double edged sword.
I wouldnt have offered him a penny to stay. We need to try and be better than players who struggle to weight a pass. Basic stuff for many other teams.
