    And they were quite right to do so.
    cryarsing about teams loaning players when it's gone on for years. Ahh but they will get the better players or get players cheaper because of the link. Who cares.

    Seeing as Everton are going to be part of 777 that own all or or shares in a number of European and South American clubs I would suggest that Twitter is t the place to research.

    Off the top of my head I think Watford loaned a bunch of players from an Italian club they were linked with and Man City loaned Lampard from New York (there's probably others). The Red Bulls clubs, along with others, run it almost as an art form in Europe.

    That was 2012 from Udinese, when we were in the Championship and the Pozzos saved us from going bust after the previous owner had mislaid all the money we had earned the previous season

    We did not realise at the time that we had destroyed the Premier League by doing that but I am pleased the Premier League survived as did we, the English League then wanted to stop that from ever happening again and so the amount of players loans from one club was reduced

    Watford and Udinese have had separate owners since the original take over but that does not seem to matter any more going by the changes being allowed in the Prem now

    That £15m they gave you for a dross left-back a few years ago was handy though.

    We paid £1m for Pedro and sold him to Brighton for £36m, £2m for Richarlison and sold him to Everton for £40m that is what you call useful

    Yeah but I was talking about the bung Udinese gave you for a mediocre Championship full-back.

    The full back that was player of the season and had Salah in his back pocket when we played Liverpool at Anfield

    Your bitterness knows no bounds

    Zaha was 21 and going to United whereas Kamara was late 20s going to a mid-table Italian club and Palace and United aren’t owned by the same people so not really.

    You really are hard work

    We paid £18m for Posseti from Udinese but he was not what we needed and loaned him back to Udinese and he is still there on loan so that balances the Kamara deal

    But those deals are absolutely nothing compared to what the Premier League have now agreed to so be a good little boy and run along because you are ****ing tedious
