Likely we are negotiating the difference of over £1m of his wages. Better for the club, even if it mean so he misses one match. Link to post Share on other sites
TheMelvillan 2,084 Posted August 24, 2018 Report Share Posted August 24, 2018 likely he is signed but the filming and editing of the announcement video is slowing it all down 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Splendid, what could be more desirable for us than another club's version of Richards? Sign him up, dammit! Link to post Share on other sites

Splendid, what could be more desirable for us than another club's version of Richards? Sign him up, dammit! That's not true though. Once he came back from injury last season he played every game. He was clearly a big part of their first team squad. Richards on the other hand couldn't get onto the bench of 2 pre-season Villa squads that played on the same day as each other. 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Fight Like Lions 131 Posted August 24, 2018 Report Share Posted August 24, 2018 Did he get any playing time during Everton’s preseason? Is he likely to be match ready straight away? Link to post Share on other sites

Agreed....he had no pre-season minutes at all so if/when he does sign i think we will be looking post-international break before he is near the 1st team. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
