Topic: The People's Club (I was saying Boo-urns)

[Crosby Nick]

All that shit from Richie about being a true blue, kissing the badge, the constant social media shite obsessing about Liverpool , first chance he gets and he is off.
Once a blue, always a (whatever club comes in for them)

And he’s being mourned as a departing legend.

[TepidT2O]

I've been busy so haven't seen any news.

Has the pigeon flown the coop or is it still up in the air?

Just a matter of time

[Fromola]

'Richy' given the usual 'He just gets us though lad' treatment only to fuck off to Spurs during what must basically now be the most baron spell in their own history, where he won't even be one of the first names on the team sheet. Incredible stuff.

'Getting them' only ever means they have digs at Liverpool/are nasty shithouses on the pitch.

[TepidT2O]

Medical today. £50m + £10m in add ons.

Any replacement?

Everton getting a hell of a deal there, he's shite.

[No666]

Fact is they simply haven't agreed a fixed price deal. The quotes from Baxendale's letter don't say this and this is where the story has come from.

Craig, can you post the letter or provide a link to it? I haven't followed this closely enough to know the reference you make, and I'm sure I'm not the only one. Thanks, mate.

[jillcwhomever]

I really don’t get Conte paying all this money for the over rated arse, surely there are better players out there.

[JRed]

Richie is obviously no more than an average footballer, he excels in snideness and being an utter dickhead, but football wise he’s just average. That said, he did actually keep Everton up by putting in a few good performances when they needed it, despite the fact he should have been banned for them games. My question is tho, who keeps Everton up next season?

[courty61]

Trying to do the maths on this.

If this brings them within the profit sustainability rules for the period 2018-2022- what if any breathing room does it give them for the rest of the summer?

Still can't see them making shed loads of money but they have dumped a fair few big contracts this summer

Richardlison
He who shall not be named
Delph
Tosun

[gazzalfc]

They are really getting a chunk of change for him. Not like Everton to get market value when they sell.

He really is a conte player. Shithouse diving c*nt.

[stewy17]

Richarlison gone for £50m plus add ons (minus Watford sell on fees…), so a net loss on what they paid?

The natives are restless thinking they’ve been diddled, Joe Anderson is rising from his slumber - he slides open the draw to his bureau, folds out the mahogany desk and dips his quill in the ink…

I think they’ve done well to get £50m + for a fella who barely gets double figures but all about perspective I guess.

[Hedley Lamarr]

They massively overpaid for him in the first place.  He was worth around £25m.  If they hadn't of got into a bidding war with themselves and paid that £25m they would of doubled their money and more, then they wouldn't be moaning about it.  He's about as average as it gets, I genuinely don't think he'd get on our bench, certainly won't improve Spurs.

[Sheer Magnetism]

It's a lot of money but I don't think its insane. Richarlison's coming into his peak years, he has a decent scoring record in this league with a mediocre team, a far better scoring record internationally and he can play as a wide forward or a false nine. Spurs fans are already turning up on GoT to taunt the blues too, which is hilarious.

[DelTrotter]

He's crap, great deal for the shite. Arsenal fans, get ready for lots of tweets about you! And maybe a bad injury or two in derbies.

On the surface looks like they’ve done well to get Spurs to stump up that mad fee for him.

But considering they paid close on 50 mill for him, they have gained very little. He helped them win nothing, he couldn’t even help them get anywhere near Europe, his one contribution was helping them not get relegated when they shouldn’t have been near that sort of mess in the first place. Also, they have to give Watford a couple mill of this fee too.

A pretty disastrous signing, but I suppose as they didn’t lose money in the transfer fee (so long as they get the add-ons)  so there's that

I agree - a very Conte type player. Spurs become an even bigger team of diving, timewasting shithouses. Quite the achievment.

[ScouserAtHeart]

He helped them win nothing, he couldn’t even help them get anywhere near Europe,

I wonder how many recent players of theirs fit into this category

[gerrardisgod]

Be hilarious when they go and give almost half of it back for Harry fucking Winks.

[Jookie]

He’s a much, much better player than many people on here are giving him credit for.

For 50M he’s a reasonable deal for Spurs but probably the top end of what Everton could expect. It seems low to them because they massively over paid for him in the 1st place.

Think Richarlison adds depth for Spurs but is probably a rotation option in the 1st instance. To compete in PL and CL I think Conte knows you need at least 4 good forward options. Richarlison has been bought to add better depth to Spurs main 3 forward players.

Like I said I think Richarlison is one of the better players outside the traditional top 6. I’d put him in a similar bracket to the likes of Rahpinha and Bowen. We don’t like him because of his snide antics. But in terms of ability and deliverables he’s probably good enough to be around the 1st team of team with genuine Top4 aspirations.

[Mighty_Red]

I was actually hoping he would join Newcastle as I was desperate to make references to Geordie Racer

Where's the Richarlison money Bill?!

Spurs offered 40m in writing at 4pm yesterday and Everton rejected it out of hand. The club are not happy with 60m but had to acccpt that for the June 30 deadline to ensure Frank Lampard has wriggle room in the transfer market

[thaddeus]

Surely not the badge-kisser!  He loved the club and the fans so much.

As sulky as he is Everton will miss him as he gave their attack a bit of spark and got the crowd riled up.  Everton barely stayed up and are now without their top scorer.  It puts a lot of pressure on the clothes horse to re-find the form of 2020 - form he's never shown before or since - as it's hard to see where else they get any goals from.

Spurs fans are very Everton in their bitterness, they'll lap it up. No matter how shite he turns out to be , if hes always hated arsenal hes one of their own.

[Trotterwatch]

Didn't Everton do better when he wasn't in the team?  I might have just imagined that.

Anyways Spurs should just drag it out until later on, then offer 30 million.

Just seen this post on GOT

Big loss, amazed he’s gone Spurs to be honest, thought he would attract offers from PSG / Barca / RM etc but hey ho

PSG would be the obvious destination to play with Neymar. They could come up with some lovely diving routines together

Looks like the June 30th deadline was real after all!

(Seems that it wasn’t entirely a hard deadline, but they were advised  to hit it rather than absolutely having to under threat of sanction)

Nah, they win (it's all relative I guess) more with him in the side.  He's a decent player player surrounded by shite, there's a reason only Spurs put in a bid.  He wouldn't get close to our side, I'm not that sure he'd get in Spurs best XI either.

Unless they buy a goalscorer this is the year the turd flushes.

Going back to Spurs for Alli

Only ever won three games when he’s not played, apparently.

Not won many more when he has to be fair   Great stat, I stand corrected.

How will the blues react next season when the snide bastard scores against them and celebrates wildly?

Probably part of the reason they're thinking of allowing the toddler thrower back.

Yeah I wonder also how they will react to his shithouse antics, when he does a nasty challenge on DCL one minute , kicking out at him whilst on the floor , then next minute he is diving at the slightest contact.
Will the be like ‘ Ahhh, we taught him well’?

[AndyMuller]

40 odd goals in 5 seasons at Everton.

50m plus add ons wow.

He is shite no matter how much Jookie tries to spin it.

He is the Brazilian Ashley Barnes or Chris Wood type player.

Yeah will be very interesting to see what Spurs have paid for him, but Everton overpaid in the first place.

Imagine the outrage as the pigeon grabs a smoke grenade from the pitch then lashes it into the crowd. They'll be foaming at the mouth, purple faces contorted with rage, demanding he's banned.
