Confirmed Signing Cenk Tosun

Niasse played in your so called weaker Turkish League and scored 12 in 34 matches and he is never considered good enough for BJK. We would even have second thoughts about him for the bench . And you have doubts about Cenk ??? There was discussion about approaching Rooney for BJK at season start and was decided it would be an overkill to get him when we had Cenk. We got Negrado for the bench instead.

Cenk had 2 championships in last 3 years . Attended either CL or CupWinners for the last 5 years. He is used to that lvl of competition. Consider yourselves lucky to sign him and even luckier if he decides to stay the next year.

Seriously tho, some of you talk like you got any better striker than Cenk tosun. He is an incredible upgrade for Everton. Besiktas needs the money otherwise they wouldn't sell their striker.

It's not that we have better, it's just that is he the best we can get for the money we'll pay?

For instance dembele from celtic who is in a comparative leauge to you. Has a more proven strike rate and scored against teams like psg and city in the champions league. Also he is 21 and will be a france international by time the world cup comes round. For a reported £18 million.

Then you look at playes who are in the last 6 months of their contracts and would be avaliable for a reduced fee as in:
Mario balotellie who has scored 16 goals and 1 assist in 21 games and is 27.
Mark uth who has got 12 goals and 3 assist in 23 games against the likes of liverpool and dortmund at 26.

Thats the question that are being asked. Is he worth the money that we are willing/going to pay? Can he adapt and bring his current form to a tougher, faster and better all round leuge then the one he is currently at.

Also how smart is he as a player? Can he continue to adapt his game year on year? With the technology avaliable to teams in the premier league. Players have to be able to adapt every year. This league eats players alive who dont develop season on season. The amount of players who have come in all guns blazing, scoring goals for fun in their first season then in their second can't buy a goal is a long list indeed.

I'll be honest I've not seen alot of this lad but he looks to be a better version of naisse to me. Will be a good player for us, do a job but won't lead us to glory and will probably be our backup striker next season.
