David Henen

[Woolly Blue]

under new regulations, he can not be a home grown player.

They're proposals so aren't regulations yet. Plus, assuming they take effect, the changes will be phased in from 2016 to 2020. Plenty of time to tweak the squad accordingly between now and then.

He has some tricks this kid and a good height.

Surely better than Kone isn't he? Arent we getting him for £200k too. That's what Ive read anyway, if so it looks to be a great deal

 

[sageyefc]

9 goals in 17 u21 matches from him, not bad. Would imagine we'll make it permanent in the summer

 

[USABlue]

hopefully make it a prem. looks to have potential and its only 200k

@HLNinEngeland: Everton are likely to take up the option on Belgian youngster David Henen, on loan from Olympiakos. (Via @svenclaes) #EFC

Not seen this journo get much wrong regarding Belgium players

It would be a great deal to be fair. If he can link up with Lukaku better than Kone did it would save us from having to replace Kone.

That's if Lukaku is still here mate. Wouldn't be surprised if Rom & Kone weren't here come the first game. This Henen looks class to me though

On what evidence are you saying that? Because he scored a bit against reserve teams? He looks pretty good but lets not declare him a first teamer after a season in a B team.

 

[messymascot]

It would be good if he turns out to be better than Origi if we only pay half a million and they paid 10 million.

I'm saying if he is good for that price, it would be a great deal.

 

[crusade]

Of course we're making it permanent, that was the whole point of this shady deal.

Then again it's also the sort of thing Everton would screw up.

that's a long shot. can't see it happening.

 

[Portland Toffee]

Should get a start over Kone at the moment.
