• Stu@18rnrnI tend to agree Stu, this sounds like a classic TFG playbook move to try and get a better deal. Played the Poker face once too often and suffered the consequences. ...
  Nigel Scowen in Monaco CEO on Balogun’s late Everton U-turn: “Not comfortable signing after club’s treatment”
• I agree with Steve Brown, it sounds like typical \"art of the deal\" tactics to get a reduced price on a nearly done deal. In my view not an ethical way to negotiate but especially when you have all your eggs in one basket. Despite the sadness of losing Ndiaye, if we had secured Balogun it would have been an acceptable window ( with the risk of Braithwaite and O\'brien being full back cover). But if Barry gets injured we are in a real mess ( and if he stays fit I don\'t think he\'s premiership standard) Should have still bought Richy ahead of Grealish on the basis he could cover both CF and LW.rnIf the Amercans are such great negotiators they should under stand risk management as well as making a quick profit !!!!rnrnrn...

I remember Bowles, Hudson, Osgood, Cook, Currie, Beattie, Channon, Best, Marsh, Worthington, etc etc, and they were fabulous players. And they're just the ones who weren't ours! Nowadays, everyone is an athlete, they're given diet sheets, have all manor of tests taken, so there is less scope for piss-heads to thrive. And JG IS a piss head, which I have been told by several impeccable sources. I don't want "a f***ing choirboy", but I don't want Rab C Nesbitt either. Somewhere between the 2 is fine if his on field performances match his salary. I really hope that my fears are unfounded, and he starts scoring a few goals as well as numerous assists, but if you ask if I'd rather we kept Illi, or got Jack and his huge wages back, there's only one choice for me....

• Kevin. Agree. Fallen at the wrong hands of owners yet again. My feeling is that this lot will tske every penny out of the club where possible going forward to recoup those debts they paid off. MInimal investment and no interest in ambition so long as the club stays in the PL....

• You can’t even make up how bad this is. rn30 years and counting the most incompetent football club on Earth. We’re also the luckiest considering - amazingly - we haven’t been relegated in all that time. The fans deserve so much more....
