4pm announcement Barkley Signs new 4 year deal [Dont post GIFS]

[blue4eva77]

This - we are all desperate for new signings and this looked like it was going to be one. We all love Ross but he is ours already.

Also, makes me feel there is nothing else in the pipeline as even Everton can't hold 2 pressies in 24/48 hours?

How did this look like it was going to be a new signing ?

Only hours ago people were concerned about Barkley not extending his contract and were assuming he is off to another club. People just want something to moan about.

itz ded embarrassin dis iz. other clubz don't do it dis way. ded small time dis la

 

[Ihaters]

They managed to deliver good news, to the whole world, in a way that's negative and a bit disappointing, that's actually quite impressive.

On the flip side, nice one Rosso lad, would of been better if Besic and Barry got a press release being new signings and all, but that doesn't stop this being great news.

Take the tin hat off Dav ffs



How did it look like being a new signing, it literally could have been anything. The moaners seemingly bought into SKY's hype that it was major. The club merely announced a conference

Erm press conference in the tranny window at a time of heightened speculation about Rom.

 

[kevdotbadger]

We have signed the best young talent in the premiership on a four year deal...that's worth a press conference.

Good PUBLIC RELATIONS for the club and shows the youngster how highly valued he is.

I think anybody criticising the club for this is simply looking for a reason to have a moan against the board and Bill Kenwright .

In hindsight I agree. He now knows how much the club loves him. That's enough to make anyone happy.

I was expecting something bigger, but I think Ross deserves the presser, and I think it was almost a stab at how we sold Rooney in the past. "We will not sell our top prospects".

If the lot across the park had done the same thing, I guarantee you we'd be taking the mickey out of them.

 

[slimspek]

I liked it! It was more than just Ross signing a contract, it was him showing the fans how much the club means to him. Wonderful quotes.

 

[DualityNSNO]

Judging by the fume levels you'd think the announcement was that we were getting relegated ffs!

 

[allen]

Is it speculation to say the club is inert this summer?

Given we don't really have a clue what's actually going on, yes it is.

You spin the vacuum to suit your own agenda. Fair enough.

 

[hibbos left peg]

Except it won't.

damn right it wont, the medias new slant will be that he will cost a couple of mill more

 

[mythbuster]

Is it speculation to say the club is inert this summer?

Nope, it's not speculation. It's downright bollox. We've signed Barry and Besic, and the two players who arguably excited us most (Coleman and Barkley) last season have been tied down on new deals. Not to mention our manager believes we still have a chance of getting Lukaku or a plan B.

Inertia

I wouldn't, would be gutted that they have a top kid playing for them

Besic - that's all there is to know.

I'm glad Barkley committed. The OTT trailing of this though when the club have been next to hopeless again in the transfer market was a complete miscalculation. That's all that's being said...and it's rightly being said too.

 

[Groucho]

As much as I wanted it to be about Lukaku, this is still good news.

 

[Dithering Dougie]

i wouldn't

Me neither, would turn a hair.

Some of our fans need to careless about them and enjoy our club more.
