    I actually think this a good move by Everton, thought it would have been ****ing stupid to give him a 3 year contract but a loan move could turn out very wise imo.

    If you think he's still that capable of taking points off your rivals, why are you getting rid of him?

    He was Everton's level about 4 years ago.

    He's Barnsley's level these days.

    Because apparently he doesn't want to be on the bench in a world cup year.

    He'd link up well at Barnsley with Vardy.

  11. That said, I still reckon he could do a job at clubs like LCFC. I'm not so confident he improves Everton, though.

    Yeah I reckon you're right there HIAG. Lincoln City would be the ideal club for him.

    3 goals from Okazaki on 30k a week or 5 goals from Rooney on 250k a week.

    Tough choice tbf

    Okazaki's a very useful player and he does a lot of work that's not really appreciated.
    Vardy gets the goals and plaudits, but a fair bit of that is down to the graft of the player next to him.
    Very useful option and quite different to what Ollua or Slimani offered.
