Transfer Rumour Hayden Hackney

[Evo2901]

Tbf Moyes does start actually using players once they’re 22/23/24, he’s just petrified of playing teenagers for the most part. Can see Hackney getting plenty of game time if he comes.

 

[Eggsyblueskin]

Sounds simple, but bring in players the manager will use.

Or get a manager who will use the players you buy.

Vaughan,Anichebe, Jose Baxter and Rodwell think differently.

Chuckling at you, and others, trying to make out Moyes doesn't prefer experience.

"but, Jose Baxter!"

Which teenager should have started at West Ham?

He left them with the oldest team in the league after spending half a billion.

David Moyes prefers senior pros, you'll find exceptions over 30 years but the man himself said the other week experience is coming back into fashion.

When he does sign younger players, they're 23+

If he signs, I'd be surprised if Hackney starts for Everton at the start of next season, it'll take him a bit of time to get in the team.

You mean when he was managing Everton

On a shoestring budget.

This line of thinking is truly bizarre given his clear preferences over the past decade or so.

Graham shouldn’t be anywhere near our starting lineup and if he is the club are a joke.

He’s not good enough, not strong enough and not experienced enough. He’s will join our impressive history of young strikers who’ve been ruined by our fans expectation and being thrown in. We’ve had much much better young strikers who’ve played in the reserves which is about 10 levels higher than the kids league he’s played in and they had better records and still struggled.

The lad needs a pre-season with the first team and then to go on loan and given time to reach his potential. He’s no Rooney, no one is he was a freak and it’s harmful that he’s used as a guide for any young lad since.

…think you’re imagining where I apparently compared him to Rooney

Put a bit more kindly, the gap between the PL and the U21s is so much larger than dozens of professional leagues and the PL, that it should never really happen unless there is a true emergency.

I have been watching Everton youth teams for almost 30 years and there is only one striker that is better than Graham is at a similar age and he had already been sold when he was 18.

In terms of finishing he is the most natural finisher that I have seen of all the youth forwards in that time.

Lots of figures about but 10m quoted here

 

[danny=)]

i very much doubt it will be as low as 10m but if it is - bargain

 

[Nymzee]

"£10m is low, must be crap"

 

[the golden visionary]

Sign as many CM's as you want, but with Keane and Tarks behind it wont change anything.
They suck us so deep, whereas players like Branthwaite can move us about 5/10yrds forwards just from the base. Which might sound small but is a massive difference, especially in transition/countering

This. 100%

If it is 10mil we'd be fools not to take a punt.

 

[ToffeeScot]

Yes they should definitely be made in order of priority otherwise you run the risk of not filling your most important positions like we have done for god knows how many windows.

I'm not sure any football club operates like that.

He gave Baxter a chance,he can't guarantee that they'll all take it, Vaughan Anichebe and Rodwell did. Think Stones was a youngster when he signed?
