Vellios on loan to Blackpool

barneygumble · March 27, 2014

Odd that we recalled both Pennington and Lundstrams to play for the U21's, and then they've sent Pennington back to Tranmere, and Lundstram has dropped a division, i wonder what the reason behind that is?

He will be off in the summer. Contract expired...

I wasn't aware his contract expires in the summer. However this certainly looks like a shop window move.

A little late for me. He should have a decent chance to prove himself. Blackpool with 32 goals in 38 league games.

Perhaps Martinez is still interested in Tom Ince?

Is he not setting the world alight down at Palace mate? Not followed him since he left Blackpool.

Vellios i don't think will make it at Everton, his level might be the championship
as for Ince doesn't seem to be doing anything great at Palace, Championship could be his level to.

Well hey, he finally agreed to go out on loan.....

Only about 3 years late.

Think he's out of contract in the summer, doesn't look like he's been offered any extension either

Great first game. Poor since, not played since he was subbed at half time at Swansea on March 2. Very frustrating. Good attitude though.

This is Everton trying to do right by the lad. His contract is up, he obviously doesn't figure in Martinez's
plans. Blackpool's situation is desparate, EFC have given him a fantastic chance to fullfill his potential here.
It is yet another example of what a great club we support. Solo lo meyor.

I think he's at Blackpool to put himself in the shop window personally. Martinez will give youth a chance and Vellios just hasnt had a sniff with the first team really since pre-season.

You never know though, Martinez as said in the past he would like to see Vellios go out on loan and see how he gets on as he thinks he's got decent potential but with his deal running out and him not being involved with the first team, i think he'll be a goner come the summer.
