    2 years before, you say? How many Everton games have you been to?
    This might explain certain behaviour.

    Only insane people with parent issues go to Everton games.

    So yeah, Chaos, how many have you been to?

    2 years before we signed him he was shipped out on loan to Preston where he played 11 games in the championship and scored no goals whatsoever. Jacob Murphy was showing him up at the time! Unusually for Chaos I think he's exaggerating to try and make a point.

    But with Chaos there’s only black and white, no gray.











    Errr, we’ll when I say black and white I might actually mean only claret and blue….

    So who’s the right winger Downie mentioned? It’s someone we are almost certainly getting on loan and someone we’ve been linked with already. Top of my head that could be Madueke, Chiesa, Torres. Anyone any other ideas? Still a bit absurd our entire summer budget is Marc Guehi.

    My money would probably be on Madueke, I would have gone Torres but I don’t think he come here from Barca but I’d take him over Madueke in a shot!

    Probably Grealish or Sterling and we'd pay half their wages.

    Really? So Downie says we will buy a RW, he knows who it is, but he can't say who.

    FFS give me his wages now, I can do that **** any day.

    Sports journalists are useless hacks, they do nothing and contribute zero to our society, sport etc.

    Kill em all I say.

    Only other name linked was Guler but Downie seemed to be leaning to low key rather than anything impressive. Elanga won’t happen, they don’t need to loan him out. Chiesa doesn’t seem like a Howe purchase. Torres doesn’t want to come.

    All signs point to Madueke who is clearly not needed at Chelsea with their wingers. Be nice if we could get Palmer instead…..

    Seen others mentioned at varying points as well, such as Yilmaz, Mbuemo, plus a couple of overseas lads I can't recall names of. Basically it's lazy journalism. Just say a name if you know. IF.

    Genuinely, if he had an exclusive he'd get it right out there. Saying he can't name names is just pathetic click bait ****.

    Nah was on a YouTube channel live mate. He said he had to check the sources and with Sky about stating it because of exclusivity and that crap, he wasn’t being snide or itk. Just saying he was doing his job and the very recent noise from his sources is that a RW deal is now being done.

    Was I right though... yep

    Much like when I identified Joelintons ability to play as a midfield enforcer.

    skills

    And like when you said Xisco could have been a great player.

    What I said was he scored on his debut and got booed which was a disgrace.

    I know people want to try and swing this back around to anything they possibly can to avoid accepting the fact I was right about Gordon along with a few others.

    The mass majority didn't want him, people don't like me pointing it out and that's the bottom line.

    He got a 2 yard tap in, and the entire team was being booed then. Never of these things change the fact he was appalling. Riviere and Guivarch both scored a goal for us, doesn't make them any worse.

    Hardly takes a genius to spot Gordon had talent, just his attitude that was questionable, I remember him diving against us and being an obnoxious prick.

    I never commenting the goal and if it was so easy to spot Gordon's talent why did the mass majority moan and hope they didn't sign him ?

    The reality is the fans were stuck on a stat and wanted a fancy name with a hairband.

    This is why we should trust the scouts... if guehi is 65- 70 million they think he's worth it.
