Everton fans moan about appointing Rafa but he's won more than what they have won nearly 30 years.

2x Fa Cups

1x Champions League

2x Europa League

1X Fifa World Club Cup

1x Super Cup

1x La Liga 

 

I mean is that really a bad appointment, I can understand the Liverpool connection but take that asside he's a good career. Style isn't pretty of course but unlike Big Sam or Woy at least his trophy cabniet is full.

There’s a juicy Bundesliga +50% bonus to any goal or assist figures coming from Germany. So Sancho's numbers need taking with a pinch of salt.

 

Werner got 28 goals last season and 6 this season in a very similar amount of minutes.

Havertz 4 this season, 12 last.

Paco Alcacer got 18 goals in ~1200 minutes for Dortmund in 18/19. Since leaving Germany, he’s got 10 goals in ~2500 minutes.

 

 

Didn't that clown at Newcastle also come from the bundesliga? 

 

It's years since I followed the league there, but I was always of the opinion that outside of the top 6, the Mainzs and Augsburgs and Freiburgs, the standard is woeful. Mid championship to upper league 1.

I genuinely hope he ends up at Everton just to see Arsenal fans go into absolute meltdown

Yes but to be fair Joelinton didn't really score in the Bundesliga either. I'm convinced that transfer was some sort of money laundering scheme or similar. No way does someone look at Joelintons record in the Bundesliga and think 40m is a price worth paying.

Everton do not need another centre half. They have about 9 of them.

Yep His best scoring league season was 8 in 33 in the Austrian league… his record was worse in the bundesliga

Maybe they can offload one to Arsenal.

White is such an Everton type signing. 
 
over hyped, over priced English player who is raved about because he can pass a ball pretty well. 
 

If he was half the player people make out, bielsa would be going all out for him.

TBF, there's been some decent gallows humor on the Fighting Cock these last few weeks.

I normally think if they have a footy player picture they’re normally kids, but I’m not sure anymore.

Heaton to United is an odd one career related. He's better than a 3rd choice keeper behind De gea and Henderson.

Cash in, maybe get some medals. Improve under the training and player/facility quality. Or he just doesn't have the drive to challenge for a number 1 spot at a lower half PL/Championship club.

True, just seems a big step up from their last 3rd choice of Lee grant.

Exactly this. Clubs like Utd set the standard of transfer fees. 

 

Without VVD going to Liverpool for £80m or whatever it was... Maguire wouldn't have moved for £85m and we wouldn't be holding that figure as a standard when selling them any potential players in the future. 

[Wymsey]

Just after Sancho signed for Man Utd, the BBC Football website is quite all over the signing - with articles like '...a hybrid of the modern age'.

Quite annoying to be honest.

I agree. But you've been in to the LCFC section of Foxestalk and read a few posts, right?
