We can just change the song to "We've got a diamond called Tom Davies?" Right? I named my dog Barkley god dammit!

It's not shocking, it's disappointing. Mainly because he's a blue. Don't bracket him in the same remit as Lukaku and Stones; Lukaku never saw us as home, we were always a stepping stone for him and he admitted so in his first ever interview.
Stones had his head turned by first Chelsea and secondly the option to work under the most sort after coach in the world, nobody is turning that down especially someone who has no affiliation with Everton.
And finally, it's pure speculation that he wants to leave because of any agro or hassle from the club. For all you know it could be to much expectation, family reasons or he's been poached and made promises by other teams.
It's not a spin game, the lad as an offer from Everton Football Club, not Roland Koeman Football Club.
He's a professional footballer who takes far more stick from Evertonians than he does from the manager, trust me
RonKo has handled this situation fantastically. No player, no matter if he's a blue or not, will hold the club to ransom. If he's asking for too much, isn't arsed about staying or looking for another move then shift him on. Rather that than let him sniff around all summer, then sign because nobody else wanted him.
Excellent Ronnie, another positive sign moving forward. We've lacked that ruthlessness in the past.

Fumin here. We as fans have had to put up with 2.5 years' mediocrity from Ross and this is how he repays us? There's just no place in the game for loyalty any more.

He'll be sold if he doesn't. He's already stated that before.

As i said in the other thread, there's nothing to stop him seeing out his contract

Too many players have played the club over the years. Good to see the club isn't letting it happen again.
Shame it has to be with Ross, but if this is the game he (or his agent wants to play) then we can't bend and break.

..Davies isn't from Wavertree.
I'm sorry, but this all is genuinely ridiculous.
The player has done nothing wrong whatsoever here, absolutely nothing. He's under contract, he shouldn't be given ultimatums in public when he is maintaining his silence and getting on with his job.
Koeman is trying to villify the player and, sadly, it's working. Yes, he may go, but he is acting incredibly professionally. Not one utterance from the player or his agent, no bad words, no destabilising the club, nothing. This whole situation has got out of hand due to one person only - Ronald Koeman.

..RKs record suggests he moves players on. As Moshiri says 'he's ruthless'. Barkley would be taking a chance staying for another season, Koeman might well treat him like he treated Niasse. At this stage of his career a season in the wilderness wouldn't be good.

Koeman has shown in a year he does not mess around. See niasse. Geri and to some extent Jags as examples. Even if he does sign a contract and that is a big IF, there may be some discontent with Ross in the future.
