Players you were wrong about

[COYBL25]

Kevin Campbell - Thought he was a washed up panic buy....how wrong was I

Me too,

Thought he`d only come to escape what was going on in Turkey and for a paid day.

Instead he become a genuine fans favourite, he kept us up that season, was the first non white Captain and an ambassador for the club.

 

[Bigduke1234]

Every player we’ve ever signed I’ve believed will be a baller. In particular, got badly burned on Sandro and kean, thought we’d pulled off coups for those too. I’m an optimist

 

[Cels]

​

Well, on first seeing him play, I did say that I thought Tom Davies would be the new Alan Ball. I think I may have been slightly wide of the mark with that one.

​

 

[flibbyflob]

I thought Pickford would be our answer to Petr Cech, so, hands up there

He is, just plays every game like he has been kneed in the head first.

 

[Prevenger17]

Thought Tom Davies was going to be great. Likewise, I thought Stones would become one of the best centre halves in the world. He hasn't done terribly by any means, but fell well short of what I thought he would become.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Lewin for me (to be fair at the time he couldn't hit a barn door) I can't believe though how in such a short time how much he has come on, made up he's made me eat my words because it now means we've got a proper all round striker who is only going to get better.

 

[Tipp blue]

Sandro, I thought we'd gotten the best young striker in Europe.

 

[The binman chronicles]

DCL.

That's it.

Well that's not right. Baines just for starters.

 

[UptheTofees]

I haven't been wrong about anyone yet. I do find myself pleasantly surprised by Iwobi. I didn't bash him, but I didn't think he had much potential. He is growing each match

 

[Lloydystark]

People won’t admit there wrong, hundreds on here should be saying Dom, loads of people should say Keane too.

I’m abit of a optimist so there’s a lot
Cadamarteri
Beattie
Klaassen
Richard Wright
Jeffers (did he even score on his loan spell)

 

[BornBlue76]

Too many to count that I thought we be belters only to be disappointed.. Besic probably top of the pile..

but I’ve genuinely only be wrong once about writing off a player and being wrong.. DCL’s growth has been so steep many were caught out

 

[optatom154]

I thought Drenthe was going to be a world beater after his cameo against Wigan
Barry and McCarthy worried me after selling Fellaini
Gibson surprised me when he first came for about a year before he fell to pieces
Naismith after that first 6 months

Not Everton but took me a good 1 or 2 years to believe Harry Kane wasn't just having a massive purple patch

 

[Frenk]

DCL, Coleman, Gueye and Barkley (thought he’d rule the world).

 

[Marterton]

Sandro. Taught me not to trust YouTube highlight videos when checking out a transfer rumour.

 

[davek]

Well that's not right. Baines just for starters.

I never said he was a poor player when he signed or any stage until he was stinking...on and off the pitch..
