STM Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Just now, Dokko said: Ā Look, i'm actually for the transfer and think he'll suit Howe's style well. I just don't want us overpaying(which we are) and giving Everton a leg up for their survival. That's the sickening part. Ā Overpaying is a matter of opinion though. Ā It's also worth reminding people that we've just fleeced Forest for 15m.Ā Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsunami Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 For a home grown 21 year old with a high ceiling I donāt think we can grumble too much at the price. We just got our money back on Woods (ffp wise) so that helps. Guessing itāll be something like a 5 year contract for Gordon which will also help. Weād have walked away if we werenāt happy with the deal. Ā He has all the attributes to fit right into the way we play. He does need to a bit more professional and Iām sure weāll work on that.Ā Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KetsbaiaIsBald Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 We wanted him so I'm glad we got him. Ā When I've seen him play he's looked ok. Ā Ā What's most worrying is the Everton fans opinion. Ā I hope being the main man at 21 in a shit team has held him back.Ā Ā Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SUPERTOON Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 One of the most positive things for me regarding him coming in is that it will surely mean Joelinton moves back into midfield? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ā Heāll be playing in front of a defence that will actually allow him to go forward. That alone will make him look a lot better.Ā Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big River Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 the way people lose their mind over fees... you'd think it's coming from their own bank account. who gives a shite, really?

OverThere Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Well, looks like we got our Bellamy back. Eddie seems to be a master at man management so I don't have too many worries on this score.Ā Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got one hell of a price tag to live up to. Maybe, just maybe weāve bought a player that Eddie really wantsā¦.Ā whether it was Ā£20m, Ā£40m or Ā£60m, if the club can afford it and can make the deal happen thatās fine with me.. Iām more concerned with improving the squad over the long term which is what heās doing, than worrying about bank balances. Im pretty sure the club have a team of experts who are highly paid and more than qualified to do that jobā¦ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
