    Don't worry, there'll be several other vultures circling high above
    Carrow Road as we approach the end of 2017.
    Some in a far healthier condition than Everton.

    When you add in this little throwaway stat it does put in stark contrast to even the women's game...Particularly when you consider that is roughly 70 clubs (give or take), with an average squad of 22

    "Paris St-Germain forward Neymar earns more in a single season than every professional player in the top seven women's football leagues combined"

    "His salary is almost exactly the same as 1,693 female players in France, Germany, England, the US, Sweden, Australia and Mexico combined."

    And even harder to comprehend, the average PL player earns in a week what a Registered Nurse, for example, takes two (2) years to earn. Shocking, disgraceful and bloody wrong <grr>
    https://www.payscale.com/research/UK/Job=Registered_Nurse_(RN)/Salary
    "A Registered Nurse (RN) earns an average salary of £23,319 per year."

    Some of the agents' fees are preposterous as well.

    Excellent avatar JM which will probably be upgraded to the Barry Butler trophy at the end of the season

    I think he'll stay because he is a sensible lad and realises that his best chance of developing further will be best suited to remaining with us rather than bench warming for one of the big boys

    Didn't we all say that about Jacob 5 months ago?
    I've read about the Everton interest, but until they refloat their capsizing ship, I think we can rule them out. But if say Huddersfield, Burnley or Brighton were interested, clubs where he's going to get game time as opposed to the top 8 where he'd be on the bench at best, I'd be amazed if he didn't consider it seriously.
