Yorkie Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Just now, wormy said: It's attacking reinforcements that can (most likely, at first anyway) come off the bench with a bit of energy. Yeah good point. We've learned only too recently about the novelty of having genuine difference-makers on the bench; even Murphy does his bit in the last ten minutes of games. Adding more pace and energy to the bench can only be a good thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
54 Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Good business this, there has to be a balance between the handsomeness of Wilson, Schar and Botman, and the hard weathered looks of Targett and Longstaff. We've been lacking in the later for a while now, so I approve of this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikejaxer Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 (edited) I trust Eddie and I'll get behind the lad but Everton fans being over the moon that he's fucked off here hasn't exactly inspired much confidence. I'm looking forward to him banging one in at Everton and seeing his rat face riling them all up. Edited January 27, 2023 by mikejaxer Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theregulars Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 12 minutes ago, Lush Vlad said: Just to play devil’s advocate. Trossard is 6 years older, had 6-18 months left on his contract depending on what was believed with his extension and of course he isn’t English. So no daft premium to pay. Gordon only signed a decent £45k a week 5 year contract only last year, didn’t he. I suppose he was also pushing to leave, mind. Would have rather had Trossard. But I can see why Howe would want Gordon and thinks he can fit the system. Plus Arsenal are a more attractive club to join at this stage. Yeh, I think these are all good points - especially on wages, you'd imagine. I always find the English premium so strange, I'd have thought there would more be a PL experience premium more than English-specific. I think other posters have correctly pointed out that we're also paying for long-term potential, but it's not like Trossard doesn't have time and room to grow. I'd imagine we inquired given Ashworth's connections. Absolutely agree re: attributes Gordon has which attract Howe. Good post. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet this kid arrives with some serious motivation to prove everyone wrong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kocunar Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Honestly I don't dislike him as a player, he is a classic example of a player you hate at other clubs and love in your club.

Dokko Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Had our eyes out with this one. £25m upfront was the correct value. £40m is sickening. He's got one hell of a price tag to live up to. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
