Oh great...

It's looking very likely. Rumours from Bournemouth is that a big club have been making enquiries about him since last night... conventiently when the Dembele stories were getting denied. The fact that he's having a "migraine" today for their game is a clear sign he's on the way out and aside from us, and Spurs who signed Vinicius today, who would be asking about him?If we buy King I might actually cry.
Bad injury as I recall, I think he was out for ages. He does play RW.......Bolasie, what happened to him? He was electrifying at Palace.
Think he just has some decent skills but was never all that effective in this league.Bolasie, what happened to him? He was electrifying at Palace.
No, thank you. I'd rather we give Elanga some minutes than signing frickin Joshua King as 3rd or 4th choice. Hes blown up chance to join us in January 2020.If we sell Martial and don't bring on another forward other than (hopefully) Sancho, and at the end of the window we still have a spot open in the 25 man squad. Then maybe worth a punt for a year on year contract so we have a backup to a backup on striker position if we need to rest someone.
But otherwise stay away, even then, not particularly buzzed, and I like the dude.
Totally depends on the game situation. When blooding in a youngster you can't just throw them into any game. Yes Elanga should get more chances next season, but can't be expected to keep his nerves in check for really tight games. Getting his confidence shot from playing the wrong games can slow down his overall introduction to performing in the team.No, thank you.

We could just pretend he's been on a reallllllly long loan if that helps youI'd much rather promote youth than sign Josh fecking King,
Shoretire, Hugill, Mcneill all doing fantastic in the academy right now, let's give them a chance, plus we have Amad who will surely play more games next season.
He's past it. I dont even remember he played for Everton last season because apparently he got injured a lot, we dont need another crooked to accompany Jones and Baily on the treatment room. I also think we dont need to worry about who's going to fill in Juan Mata's position as we've already got VDB and I think it's time for Hannibal to get a taste of senior football. VDB, Hannibal, and of course sancho if we signed him, that's already plenty of options for Ole to pick.Totally depends on the game situation.

We need some older players in the team as well, if Mata ends up going this summer then someone like King could be valuable to have around the squad, even if he hasn't won as much.
But like I said, not in any way hyped about King or think we should jump on him, just that if there's room in the squad of 25 at the end of the window then we could do worse.
That's not true. Players more often than not move to big clubs from smaller clubs (when they are about to enter the peak or best youngsters).I had no idea he signed for Everton. Unless your Wayne Rooney, players should move from Manchester United to Everton, not the other way around. I'd have made an exception for Coleman and Baines a few years ago, but on the whole - thats the way it goes. No Josh King.
I meant if you think about the history of transfers between the two clubs.That's not true. Players more often than not move to big clubs from smaller clubs (when they are about to enter the peak or best youngsters).
Josh King doesn't fall into either of that category.
It's not implausible given Ole's ringing endorsement last season. But let's hope not.Some on here will look for any excuse to lose their shit. We’re not even linked with him ffs
Yeah true. Shame we didnt sign Coleman.I meant if you think about the history of transfers between the two clubs.
The only decent signing i think we ever made from them was Rooney. Fellaini was awful, Lukaku was meh. Whereas i think a lot more have gone the other way. Gibson, Saha, Neville, Keane, Howard, Cleverly, Schniderlin...
Out of those, which do you think Everton would label as great?I meant if you think about the history of transfers between the two clubs.

thats why I said 1000% in case you were in any doubt…"Rather"
Ings is 2-3 level above King.
Maybe for Wolves they would be.King and Heaton are both solid 3rd choice players
