It’s fake news anyway we’re not signing him
well get prepared then for the unveiling shortly lol.
not only did tofeenut broke the story that it is done. Also Dyche used to play/ manage him and wanted him at Burnley.
and Young turned down other offers so i believe he is coming
 
Do you need the details to know if it's a bad deal? We are paying wages (safe to assume it is more than 50k a week) for a 38 year old. That is more than enough info to say it is a bad deal.
There's always a lot of guesses thrown around about wages of individual players.I know none of us have a high opinion of Thelwell and Co but I'd imagine our insurance company would require some type of fitness level tests before if and when he signs.
 
Do you suppose MSP signed off on this? Or is this similar to spending like a madman just before the bigger year ends. His wages won't be small.

If true, Fabian Delph and Yerry Mina sailed through theirs.

It’s all about the wages/signing on fee we are offering a 38 year old. Everton are in a mess because they throw insane weekly money at average/poor players at least double what they would get anywhere else as an incentive to join the horror show of a club, which in turn make any future potential sale from the club, nigh on impossible.

Our wages to turnover ratio is diabolical, it’s why we‘ve had the Premier league standing on our throat for the last 2 and a bit seasons. Now, couple this issue with when we pay big transfer fees/signing on fees and we don’t sell those players on for anything and it’s pure cost to the club. it’s a vicious circle of financial, contractual and footballing incompetence.

Ashley Young will be the pure embodiment of everything wrong with the club. High wages, lucrative signing on fee and absolutely £0 selling on fees. He is ALL cost for one season at most, no forethought for the future while pinning hopes of not getting injured on a man so ancient he’s got wrinkles in his forehead older than the 2 fullbacks he will cover. The fact that we have let one of the most promising defenders in the country go to Chelsea for less than what this fella will cost for 1 season is why there is rightly fume.

If it was done it would’ve been in the media he’s waffling
