The Lampard Effect

Yeah just scanned the need to be honest mate, was in work.

Seeing more of the deal now, we don’t pay anything until he plays 20 games - if what I’m hearing is right.

That is right, and is a great deal…..

Much like our later, lower bid for Shearer.

I have no memory of this but see it mentioned regularly. Could you enlighten me please?

If someone told me 3 years ago that we would be managed by Frank lampard in a relegation battle and signing dele alli on a free. I would think they were nuts

Everton, who were skint. Put in a £13m or so bid to sign Alan Shearer from Blackburn, despite Shearer all but being a Newcastle player at this point.

Then proceeded to say ‘we tried’

We’ve done it a few times, Alan Smith at Leeds too I remember

Yeah that’s another one, there was absolutely no chance and we went in with an offer then pointed at it as the kind of signing we were trying to make.

I assume all clubs do it

I'd have been about 13 at the time and relying on the Everton teletext page for updates. Page 218???? I'm sure someone can correct me.

Thanks anyhoo!

And Michael Owen.

Im on the fence about this signing to be honest.

I mean if we get the player he was three seasons ago - wow.

But the doubt and concern is why isn’t he the player he was three seasons ago.
