How long a deal do you think we’d be giving him?
If we offered him a 3-year deal with a club option of a 4th, then we’ve got him under contract until he’s 32. Not exactly an old age in modern football.
It’s not like what we’ve done with Bolasie, Tosun, Sandro offering £100k+ a week on astronomical wages, is it?
I agree I’d avoid if he’s looking for 4+ years.

Its an opinion. I dont have to be happy or not happy about anything. You're banging on like his agent. We're not negotiating here.
Even that point is coulda woulda shoulda. West ham is hardly the mecca of football at 28 is it.

There is something there on one of the reports suggesting he wants to take his time to decide aka he doesn't fancy us. Move on imo.
I think it's a very fair point. I'm not saying he's rubbish or anything but you're right that people keep saying it's a no brainer and he's so clearly better than what we've got etc but his career doesn't really suggest it. Even the whole leadership thing is overblown, he's not even Burnley's captain. At the end of the day he'd probably be a decent signing all things considered but it's difficult to reconcile the Tarkowski i've watched and can look at the career of with the fantastic player that some people talk about.

Probably more a sign of this crazy league than anything else. A player relegated at 30 who hasnt had a glittering career is looking for 100k a week. We either continue to play along with the madness or we get our scouting better and look for a younger prospect.
That's exactly what it's like, yeah. What's different about it?

This is the truth and he'd had one season in the Prem. Tarkowski has had about 5. Point wasn't age it was about their route to the club being irrelevant. If they're good enough and from a minnow then so be it.
Probably taking his time to see who comes up with the most cash mate.

Oh no doubt, we probably need to get players in and let Frank get working with them though. No more leaving it till the last minute like under Brands that would potentially be chaotic.
I wouldn’t take that as a given mate, whoever signs him may have to pay him a signing on fee.
I agree with your point about not having to be old to be a leader but I think it would be difficult for someone like Greaves to take on that role here. It's a big ask to come in with his background and start bossing big name internationals about.

There is no exact science to it. But in general if a player has got to around 30 and never played for a big club its usually for a reason. Bigger clubs tend to get their players if they want them long before 30. Obvious exceptions.
Besides its not so much about the age. Its the deal. He's looking for a big bumper pay deal for his probable last contract. Cant blame him for that. But let someone else saddle themselves with it. If there is one thing Everton should be running a million miles away from its deals like this. Have we learnt nothing from the past few years.
Jagielka was not a lower league footballer.
He just been relegated from the Premiership with Sheff. Utd when we signed him.

Given how poo our central defence was, I’ll take him in particular Mina is injured prone and not signing a new deal yet.
