Looks a player reborn. Been Evertons player of the season by far. Finally realising his potential.
Demarai Gray

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.
Contract was running down so we sold him for what we could get
Reminds me of nani. Im glad to see his career back on track at everton.

Any context to that? Presumably he's fallen out with Dyche?
Interesting. There have been so many people who cite Dyche as a good man manager including current and past players so I'd be surprised if so. If I recall Gray has had issues with every club he's played for. Will have to wait until more comes out about this but that's as clear a statement as any that he wants out!
He's pissed because he didn't get a move on the deadline day but it looks like there's more to this.
I just find it interesting if he has fallen out with Dyche as both Townsend and Dele cited how Dyche cared more about them as people than talking about football.
He's trying to get Dyche sacked. Not really any other reason to post that after the transfer window is closed.
He’s too talented for Dyche.
Yeah I wouldn't be surprised if it comes out later that it's the player who has behaved unprofessionally. Looks like he's been trying to get a transfer all summer and considering he hasn't even featured in the match day squad this season suggests he hasn't conducted himself the best way. We'll see.
His end product is shocking for someone as talented as he is though.
Surprised so many in here seem to rate him. He was bang average for us.
He was supposed to be going to Fulham but think they were constantly low balling with fees. Then a Saudi club came in but again not sure what's happened but imagine it will accelerate.
Yup. Just sounds like he's refused to train and said he wants to leave, we have rejected bids we don't deem fair and he's having a hissy fit.
It's more about how poor the Everton squad is, they need all the help they can get.
I genuinely believe we are better without him. He's too selfish as a player and you can't really afford that at the bottom. We have Danjuma who is a bit selfish too but already has two goals and looks like he has better work rate going forward and back compared to Gray.
I think Gray has all the attributes to be brilliant but in the last 5% he lacks good decision making because he wants it to be all about him.
His goal and assist record is really crap for how 'good' he is.
That's fair.
You probably’ve seen much more Everton than me, but for me his decision making is one of his best traits. His best performances have been exactly where he assisted other’s and werent leading the line. But it’s a long time since he’s had a good spell.
Gray isn't the brightest, I remember him nearly walking into the rear rotor of a helicopter after trying to duck under the tail.
He had one assist last season.
I mean obviously I'm very glad it didn't happen but that would be a cartoon way to go. When was that, when he was at Leicester?
still the same sulky twat we had then
Yeah back in 2016
I mean obviously I'm very glad it didn't happen but that would be a cartoon way to go. When was that, when he was at Leicester?
Probably 6 on 1 half a dozen on the other. Sometimes personalities just clash.
He’s had a couple of purple patches and high profile big goals. He’s an OK player in general but when he was younger, there was hope that he could develop into a much better player than what he became.
He had problems at Leicester too. Seems to be one of those unable to see any fault in themselves.
