Ah still seems many agree Everton are not budging on this deal. Alas all the times I could hear the flash Gordon theme song every time I saw him chase after someone or run with the ball...

Ah well some things are not meant to be... like @Munkworth ever being nice to me...some dreams just don't come true @Valerie

Just threaten @Munkworth with a dousing of unclean water, he’ll be putty 🤣

They sign Maupay, so that we pay more?

They never replaced Richarlison.

Lampard adamant that he’s an Everton player, in the same league as his ex Chelsea young guns, though he never named them, he’s in squad for Evertons game tomorrow 

Says he's a £100M player - I think Frank is trying to do us a favour TBH.  There is plenty of young talent out there for less than this kid...we had Werner that could run in a straight line FFS and have speed and work his socks off..albeit he struggled to hit the net....Gordon is no different is he?  This has to be the most useless transfer of the window if this happens..I'm sorry but at the price Everton want TT and TB have f**king lost the plot.

Maybe he’s saying he’s a 100 million player so that 60 looks like a great deal 

 

Let Everton keeps him then, probably get him on a cheap after Everton is relegated. With all due respect, they are out of their heads if they see Gordon as a 100M player. We presented them a golden chance to revamp their team, they played hardballs and we should walk away.

This para resonated:

"Do we actually need the football here? Do we need the long-form version, Gordon on the bench looking cold in a beanie hat, a much-mocked missed open goal, the Newcastle rumours?"

Awww @axman2526 Perhaps it will happen yet! It needn't on my account, but there's still the unique talent in him of running a lot...

Saw what you did there, more pay = pay more

Lamps deserves every penny and more.

The only thing I want more than us not signing this player is us winning the league. 

Absolute shambles if we pay £40m for him. That would have been us fleeced not to talk of current figures being bandied about.

Worth every penny of we pump the flash Gordon theme at the bridge every time he runs with the ball
