    I think we need a different type of striker. One who can also play wide

    WTF is going on At barca? In serious financial trouble, can't afford to register players but still throwing money around like Bardo in a casino

    Makes me think this whole "we can't afford to register Messi" was just a rous t get him out the club and free up wages

    Broadhead can play that role.

    Agreed. Starting XI plus a couple of others are absolutely up to the job. Rest of the squad looks light. Need a wide player, wide striker, at least 1 CM and a left back IMHO

    Not at all convinced by Gooch At RB/RWB

    If we do bring another in, as well as Broadhead, I'd love for someone who is rapid.

    I’m past caring about Broadhead. Want someone fully fit who can play 35+ games in a league season…

    I think Broadhead would still be a quality addition. Stewart, Simms and Broadhead is a ****ing WORLD away from Wyke, Grigg and O'brien as striking options at the club

    He’s got a lot of quality but is he reliable? Is he even fit now? Hasn’t kicked a ball in a game all pre-season.

    Everton didn’t start with a striker yesterday. He’s probably injured…

    A bit of creative accounting and raising money by selling off their TV rights (Spanish clubs negotiate separate deals, rather than the league negotiating the rights) and by selling off a share in their merchandise licensing.

    Think I've logged onto the wrong forum. Now we don't like or want Broadhead because:
    • He's money orientated (not sure why we'd expect him to take a massive pay cut / miss out on a bonus he's entitled to / or whether there's anything to suggest its money holding it up)
    • He's unproven at this level (neither is Simms, Stewart...)
    • He's unfit (sack our medical staff if they're sanctioning signing a crock)

    Everton, it seems have something of a Striker problem themselves, at the moment.

    We might have a problem hanging on to the one we have on loan from them.

    Broadhead will sign.

    I know he’s had a couple of injuries but with Stewart and Simms, we won’t have to rely on him as much.

    The lad is absolute quality for me.
