2019/20 Marcel Brands

[davek]

Didn’t he sign Alcaraz and Kone in that period?

Yes, and Robles. For £9M.....And brought in McCarthy, Deulofeu, Barry and Lukaku....for £13M. Total £22M.

Yes. And brought in McCarthy, Deulofeu, Barry and Lukaku....for £13M.

Wasn’t lukaku a loan to begin with that then went on to cost £28M, same with Geri? Can’t remember his fee but had a 2 year buy back... Barry was excellent but McCarthy has been very injury prone and I’m a supporter of his. I think its fair to say Brands is doing a very good job so far

Great

You think his time here before injury wasn't anything other than excellent?

Short memory.

But Dave 73 from Skem thinks hes a fraud.

This is almost exactly word for word what I posted on here and Twitter yesterday

Around £85m combined (approx) for Bolasie, Klaassen, Sandro, and Tosun.

Brands has spent around £85m on Digne, Andre Gomes, Richarlison & Bernard...

Jesus Hector Christ

3 of those loans... hardly the same thing... still good signings though. Brands doing a great job so far, crazy to think otherwise

...and so too was Gomes.

Yeeeeah ..... im confused? Are you trying to say that Martinez dealings where better than those of recent under Brands?

The Martinez deal to not only convince Lukaku to join us and then pay less than £30m... probably the best high profile deal of the last 25 years.

Yes was definitely a good piece of business without doubt. Same could be said for persuading Bernard to sign on a free.

For Everton? Or in general?

.. very much Everton. It was an absolute coup.

He had one good season here.

I don’t care for the reasons.

Can look at it a few ways really, he signed for 28M, had a good goal return, we sold him for a huge profit. The only thing I never liked about him was the constant paper talk when he was away on international duty, still the same now.
