That's the one , thanks eric! The lad previously earning £25k p/w. Scott Sinclair wasn't on far off that at Preston. Would of probably been on £30k+ a week at Celtic. Would of been on probably at least double that at Man City. Granted they're at different stages of their career but some players just might want to play Football. Very unlikely I know, but he is Scouse 🙂

Tbh I was a tad worried by JB comments on AC window still open everyone has their price type of thing - underlying feeling he might still go?

Remember Sol Campbell and Kasper Schmeichel rocking up at Notts County? I remember Fulham signing John Salako and Philipe Albert when in the 3rd Division. Another former Everton flop Oumar Niasse who cost them £18M and was earning circa £60k per week just 2 years ago played for Burton last season and then at Morecombe who are in League 2. I am sure he'll have plenty of interest from Championship clubs or abroad but he may just want to play Football.

I am sure he'll have plenty of interest from Championship clubs or abroad but he may just want to play Football. There have been reported interest from Eredivisie club PSV Eindhoven and Gazzetta dello Sport claim Serie A clubs Monza and Bologna interested. Rangers manager Michael Beale is also said to rate him highly. Hopefully things don't go the way of Notts County and Munto Finance, with members of Munto being sought by the Serious Fraud Office, the Financial Services Authority and Nottinghamshire Police, with County plunged to the brink of bankruptcy.

He was asked the question, he had to give a response and it is the standard response every club in the world gives so I wouldn't worry too much mate. Besides AC is totally over rated

A signing that would show intent,especially with the new investors, it won’t happen, is JCH if it costs a million or two and smashes our club record, you’re looking at 20-25 goals, like I say it won’t happen, but that’s what you need to do to get out this league, or grow your own and those particular fruits are taking a while to grow.

Tom Davies could be an option, he might not fancy going abroad, we know he doesn’t fancy staying at Everton playing 10 games of a relegation scrap.
Expect he’ll end up in the championship and it won’t be until the end of the window so he can get the best deal from a desperate team that hasn’t performed well. If that doesn’t materialise why couldn’t he be ours? There must be a decent reason he was training with us

I don’t watch much prem football , is he that good that he’d be a game changer for us ? Not that I think we’ll sign him !

Think Tom Davies would indeed be a game changer for us, dropping down two tiers think he would outstanding, very very unlikely though you never know with JB's connections, if he does not find a club just may be some kind of deal could be done even if it was short term.

JCH needs to return would be a fantastic signing.

Seems to have disappeared off the scene.

JB was hardly going to say he's training with us as we're due to announce new owners who want to make a statement signing once the deals ratified by the EFL? Unless he's got property on the Algarve then it seems a strange place to choose to get fit.
