Exactly, saying he'd be wasted is just hilarious, he'll improve massively playing at Everton ( or any team in the prem for that matter ) the training with and playing against such high calibre players pretty much guarantees it. Also Dyche is a much better coach/manager then he seems to be getting credit for from some.

I think the point is, for a centre half with good ball skills, good attacking qualities and who loves to surge forward, he’s being linked to the two managers who are most likely to strangle that freedom from him and play as an old fashioned defender.

Of course he will improve playing in the premier league and they are both very good managers. Show me where anyone said otherwise.

Moyes won't be there.
 
Unfortunately, as is usually the case, it isn't the attendance or the fans, it's how the club's finances have been managed. In the last few years, they've seen a lot of top talent leave on a free, having bought players in for massive amounts of money.

When Russia invaded Ukraine, their lucrative deal with Gazprom was cancelled and not replaced and coupled with the Covid-19 restrictions, they suffered another revenue loss due to no fans being allowed in. This is despite selling a lot of players and putting a salary cap in place. If they do get relegated, they're in deep ****.

They are in in 3rd or 4th place in Bundesliga 2 and challenging for promotion so they will not be getting relegated. 60,000+ is a pretty good attendance in the second division. Similar sized city to Hull, 263,000, with Borussia Dortmund only 30 miles away so very impressive crowds.
 
I know nothing about him, any good?

Better than Docherty. Also adds a bit of bite to midfield that’s sorely lacking. Has occasionally played more advanced this season for Northampton but is a defensive mid or box-to-box by trade. Could also be a long-term replacement for the likes of Seri. £300k is a steal.

Don’t know where I got that from. <doh>Yes, they will in **** street if they do go down. Their league position in the second division makes their crowds even better.

As others have said, their debts are such that if they are relegated they will be bumped down to the regional leagues, they aren’t solvent enough to be allowed into Bundesliga.3.

We should support them, founded same year as us. Just reading about them, Wasn't that long ago that Gazprom were promising to pump millions in. It has one of the worst unemployment rates in Germany since all the coal mines shut down.
