2021/22 Lucas Digne

The club should come first when they [the club] are footing the wage bill.

How many modern footballers do that? Agents. Profile. Sponsors. Yada yada...

Very few, doesn't make it right yet the manager is castigated for wanting players loyal to the club.

Thanks Lucas. You got it.

 

[Sharpies volley]

But better than our level

Really

You mean the manager is wasting his time? We are wasting our time?

 

[ParisToffee]

Disgusted his gone as been very loyal to us and always positive about club and fans ;-( Issue was Benitez and cant blame Digne leaving due to that idiot ;-( Hope he gets his place in France world cup squad and does'nt play well against us but again him v Coleman, there will be only 1 winner :-(

So the quote on the marketing blurbs is this:

Digne said he had joined Villa because of Gerrard. "It was the main factor. I came here for the manager," he said.

"I had a very good meeting with him and we spoke a couple of times during this month. I feel his desire to win - the attacking football, the possession.

Fair dos, it's quite the dig.
Is it just me getting a little nauseous from all the kopite stuff though?

Can you tell me how many full backs have ever been bought for more than £30m then? I doubt it’s more than a dozen so a £30m+ full back surely by definition should be one of the very best in the world? If not why not?

Danilo, Wan-Bissaka, Semedo, Chilwell off the top of my head all £30mil+.

Also, having a full back valued at £30mil doesnt mean those teams would sell. It simply means they have top players.

If Mykolenko and/or Patterson become £30mil+ valued players then weve done a good deal.

Semedo was for over 30m ???

I'd be asking for a refund on him

 

[gonetomorrow]

He'll have to brush up his free kicks and corners which have been poor the last season or so.
I look forward to booing him from the safety of my armchair.

 

[Nyhus]

I hope this is real

 

[Pilks]

After that nauseating paean to Stevie Geeeeeee, he's dead to me now.

€30mil + €10mil in add ons...

The World Football forum - where Everton players go to die.

Farewell to the Gallic Tattoo, a player who benefited hugely from Mo Besic Syndrome: when performances suffered, admirers could point to the streetwise hairdo and vaguely homoerotic machismo if not the tackles, blocks, assists, and goals.
