Confirmed Signing Jack Grealish

[Neiler]

Fair play to our negotiation team keeping a straight face, when someone mentioned including a £50 mill option.

 

[Blue_Berry]

As much as I’m happy with a loan, 50 big ones next year for a 30 year old is a massive NO from me no matter how well he does in the next 12 months. That’s a bonkers fee for a 30 year old.

On the face of it, but it's OUR option to buy. You have to think that this is something that our negotiation team has requested to be put in there, as presumably if it was City's it would be an obligation. We must know we can afford it if it works out. Also as an option it costs us nothing extra.

A Brucey Bonus as it were.

I feel sorry for him, he’s been bouncing round Manchester and Birmingham with his legs out completely unaware of the challenge waiting for him in Liverpool. He’s gonna see my legs at the match and realise he’s been playing with the kids up to this point of his life. Welcome to the big leagues Jack

Smashing stuff.

 

[Kevsleftpeg]

Tbh I think that’s a problem for the end of the season. If he’s done brilliantly then the club will have to consider what they’re doing to do. I’m just gonna enjoy the loan for now!

We can always renegotiate the price.

Well, it'll remind us not to get too attached to Jack if he does well.

Frankly, I'm happy with this. He will use us as a chance to play in a World Cup season without uprooting his family, while we will use him to immediately upgrade our midfield, image as a club, and send out a statement that New Everton in its shingy new stadium is a new proposition for players.

After the season, we upgrade again.

Even if we put the £50m up (which we won’t clearly), we’d be pipped by a late £51m bid from Wayne Linekers, Ocean Beach FC

Dave: Yeah right no worries let's have that in

JAAAACCCCCCK

 

[Harryflashman]

Won’t be doing that anyway.

of course we won’t but like many things in life it’s better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it

 

[Cameron Manning]

This will lift the squad.

Even when they see the wages he’s on—-they’ll be over the moon!

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Interesting. Not sure I'd be parting with £50m for a 30 year old like so reckon that'd be an automatic non-starter either way.

 

[blueconverse]

Even Myers is positive on this one. What on earth

 

[WilliamBoo]

This could be a massive improvement. At least beers in the stadium should be easier to buy

Kinda reminds me of the day we signed Kanchelskis. Hope Jack proves himself comparable with the best wingers in blue
