rodgers probably went... oh ****... he can actually play when not saddled with gerrard ooops... hide my mistake here... make out i'm a genius who is giving him one final chance. then he'll play all year
he's stabbed them in the back..... well... at least he's being honest i suppose berahino has done the same.
Well it might have just bought you another Mil on loyalty bonus waiver or whatever so let's see. Yes you refuse it then get chelsea to bid. Who will you buy?
Last year, I'd have said, he should stay and play regular at Everton.. but given the start in decline of Terry and Cahill, he'd most likely go into their first team.. Quality player the lad! A matter of time, once the Transfer Request goes in, you have a player that no longer wants to be there, best to cash in and rebuild..
Too late in the window for me. Just tell him not this summer lad, sorry. If we accept a bid now, then we'll look like chumps given what we've said of late on the issue.
His timing could be better.. and the "go next year" whilst sensible may not be applicable here, once his head has been turned... The chap from Argentina, is he not seen as a possible replacement? Losing stones without getting any new CBs would leave you thin in that area, no?
but if the bid's another 5mil on top? 35mil? I think yes its late but hey... there might be value out there... who is there out there? COUGH williams? It has to be said back to some lads who've used him as a um for 3 years
Selling stones is a no brainier. Not like Everton will get much better than 8th this season. Stones is worth a place or two in the table for them, better to take 35mil
The problem with selling, aside from looking weak as ****, is that Everton haven't replaced Alcaraz and Distin yet let alone Stones
Everton must have some sort of contingency plan drawn up. This won't have been totally unexpected. And yeah,when that offer reaches a certain point,he will go.
