The McGinn one is interesting.
There was derision on here about the possibility of us signing him because he was too old and not good enough.
He has been superb for Villa and makes them tick.
Imagine if he was coming in off the right flank instead of Dibling.
Sometimes football hipsters know sweet FA.
It’s a really tricky one mate - I think we still are trying to find an identity - what is Everton and what is our philosophy and what is our approach to things, no one really knows.
McGinn is interesting* un the sense in that does he make us better this season - 100% yes.
Could we be stuck with him on a four year contract o. over 100k a week after 18 months - also yes.
It’s that soul searching between immediate improvement and long term strategy and planning that I think will lead to confrontation by the manager and administration.
