  • People slagging off Grealish don't really understand football. We knew when we were signing him that we were signing a player that was not the one doing the marauding runs of 5 years ago, we were getting the football brain and that's what he's given us, look at the stats for that. Like when players like Pirlo, McAllister, Gough, Sheringham aged 30 plus were head and shoulders football brain wise ahead of the rest of his team mates. If he has pace around him people wouldn't notice him "slowing the game down" as they say. Sadly we don't....

  • Dave, I do want more from him, and I am concerned that we would be buying a fading star that could look poor in 12-24 months time. In defence I would say he would look better, if the defence played 30 yards further forward, had an overlapping full back to the left of him, and a striker that could score.

  • We need a change to uplift the season but, quite honestly, I am skeptical about any signing until they start producing the goods.We have had many strikers since the first tenure of Moyes and many have flopped. Lukaku was probably the only one to have any consistency.Beto and Barry have shown very little to worry Premier League defenses and of course Everton, having very little spare cash to make a serious offer for a really quality striker at this time, may have to try someone like this guy....
