Fans seem to have a blind spot with Amartey in the same way as they do with Mendy, both have been here near on 7 seasons under 4 different managers and never established themselves as 1st choice unless the squad has be disrupted by injury.

 

Both nice lads, solid enough players but if you want to challenge for the top 8 or 6 not good enough.

 

In Amartey time we have brought, Maguire, Benkovic, Soyuncu, Evans, Fofana, Vestergaard and Faes, that 7 CB, tell you what the club thinks of Amartey, his just a squad player.

Exactly.

 

Time will tell if the recruitment team can bring in upgrades to improve the team but likes of Mendy and Amartey have had enough time and we know they can’t take us where we want to go.

Why are we losing Amartey? His contract may be up in the summer, but I would have thought he would want to stay now he is a regular starter and the club may feel he has done enough recently, to extend.

Yeah no one is gonna offer him more than us and the sad situation is we need him now more than ever so his agent will have rudkins pants down.

Keane would be fantastic alongside Faes.

 

Prime age, height, physicality, experience.

 

Similar to when we signed Huth from Stoke.  

except he's dog and Everton fans are glad they're getting rid

When we signed Huth from Stoke we were new to the league, absolutely bottom of the pile and crying out for some experience. Huth had always been solid but had injury issues.

 

We are no longer bottom of the pile and we should be aiming much higher than Evertons expensive cast offs. If he’s not good enough for them who have been dreadful for years he’s certainly not good enough for us.

We haven’t got the budget, so honestly retaining players like them, rather than having to buy and equally shit replacement, should in theory mean there is more money for a better player to also come in… rather than splitting the budget over two players.

Physicality is exactly what I wouldn’t describe him. He’s 6ft 2 and plays likes 5ft 9. 
 

Id rather have Phil Jones

Loan with an option to buy at relatively low cost makes absolute sense.

 

See how he does for half a season and then make a call in the summer whether to extend. Everton get him off the wage bill for 6 months so they’re happy with that.

 

It wasn’t that long ago I remember their fans asking why he wasn’t in the England squad. There’s a player there and, whilst he might not be first choice if Evans and Faes are fit, he’s not a bad option until the summer rather than a gamble from abroad who might take time to adapt to the Premier League.

True, I'd keep Amartey, but look to blooded Braybrooke rather then keep Mendy for the amount of minutes he plays.

Brendan seems to love Premiership experienced players......I would would rather get a player new to the EPL.

It's rather like you move house to a house in the same street or area to the one your currently living in, or up ship and move abroad and start fresh.

The latter one you'd get more excited about and probably work harder to make it a success

Practically every time he plays for Everton he has a stinker. This is Vestergaard mk 2 

This signing would be worse than Vestergaard + Bertrand + Bennet combined.  I pray this rumour is absolute dog-shit.
