Everton giving Pickford 4 years at 150k week. Delighted for the lad if a little sad that it likely means we never get a ‘last dance’. What a brilliant lad and keeper we produced there. Love the bloke. Deserves that. Was hardly struggling on his 120k week anyway like.
I’m not after my first eyes on Sadiki. Was like there was 2 of him on the park at times. That midfield 3 are so interchangeable and looked like they’d clicked already.
Why? He has months of poor performances last year. Was very good for 2 months. Watch that midfield yday, Neil doesn't get close to it IMO. Doesn't cover the ground quick enough or offer the presence.
I think the timing never worked, and I think Everton asked the earth when approached, as you’d expect. United definitely looked pre Onana but fee plus salary made him a hard move. It is a shame he never went and won trophies, he could easily have played any of the top club. City and Liverpool have had top long term keepers. Stars just didn’t align for him. He’s adored at Everton and we all know he loves and needs a bit of that.
Sorry like but Neil is nowhere near the pace of our new midfield 3. Far too slow to turn on the ball and move it
So so weird this, only thing I can think of is his club have changed the goal posts at the last minute
I may be completely wrong, but I think Pickford might be the type of keeper that doesnt benefit later on in his career.
