Best value for money signings - or home grown players since the late 1950's

[Joey66]

@Joey66 you little scamp, you can't start a thread from the late 50's then chalk Dixie down as No.1 that's...errr...cheating.

Anyway my choice would be Llandudnos greatest bin man...Wales Wales number 1!!!

yes I noticed that blunderlol

 

[Joey66]

Yep,Sheeds Eggs,what a deal, bonus being it must have made the reds eyes to waterlol

It did when we signed him my inlaws red mad - I asked them was he any good they had seen him in the reserves just held their heads down , and muttered he was top class, and grumbled it was a clangerlollol
they proved to be so rightlol

 

[Joey66]

Omuar Niasse, Aidan Mcgeady both spring to mind

yes along with Bernie the bolt Wright utter crap

 

[Joey66]

Marcus Bent.

yes the moans when we signed him - top 4 finish!

If it hasn't already been mentioned Johnny Morrissey will take some beating for value for money.

Gareth Farrelly how much money did that goal earn the club since.

 

[ilikecheese]

Tim Howard.

Alan Ball, at the time best player on the planet for £100k in today's money equals just over £1.3 million.

I'm gonna go a bit off kilter here. Ademola Lookman for 11 million quid. That seems a lot, but I have a feeling that in 3/4 years it's gonna be a steal. My tip for Everton's best signing in a five year span is this kid! (Maybe not including Morgan, cos he's ace).
Vault me.

Yep in my opening thread 10 seasons with us for a Ten grand sale while Shanks was on holiday lol

 

[4737carlin]

Steve Walsh, bargain.

Richard Gough, David Weir and Alan Stubbs kept us safe from relegation in the dark days of having zero money but trying (successfully) to remain a big club in the eyes of the others.

Distin also came in for £5m or so and gave us 6 seasons (210 appearances) and was solid despite his age, and was more than an adequate replacement for Lescott.

Forgot about Distin. Good shout.

Considering they all had to play alongside Yobo at sometime or other.
