If you want DCL we want £35m and you take Maupay too. For free. Apologies. Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a mailbag with Patrick Boyland posted this morning in which he addresses DCLs contract situation directly and makes no mention of this. For those that don't subscribe: Is there an update on DCL’s contract situation? How likely is he to stay? — Alex G Last I checked, this hadn’t moved substantially in a while — at least not when it comes to a potential new deal at Everton. That remains their priority though after he got back towards his best at the end of last season. Calvert-Lewin’s camp have long been aware of the club’s intention to offer new terms, but a decision was put on hold until survival was secured and Everton’s future became clearer. I’m unaware of any breakthrough of note, but it has been stressed to me that all options remain on the table. A decision obviously needs to be made soon, given the 27-year-old striker is now into the final year of his deal. Everton’s financial situation is such that they can’t afford to lose a player of his ability and value for free, and that forces their hand here. If he doesn’t sign, then he almost certainly has to be sold. Remember: Calvert-Lewin would already be a Newcastle player by now had he agreed personal terms there.

Shukes Posted July 10 Report Share Posted July 10 Listen to the player and his agent. They will make sure he is available if he doesn’t want to stay. If they haven’t and he wants to leave…. Then sack your useless agent for not doing his job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harv Posted July 13 Report Share Posted July 13 Dom will score goals where ever he ends up but he is so unlucky with picking up injuries and as a result has spells on the sidelines. Which may put off potential buyers. It wouldn’t be a surprise if he decides to stay. Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doucoure’s record wasn’t too bad, Onana has been the biggest disappointment for me when it comes to scoring and assists, so much hype around him for someone who lacks productivity. But I agree with what you’re saying the team is relying to heavily on Dom’s goals which imo is putting more pressure on every opportunity that comes his way, if others took some of that responsibility he would be able to play more freely and dispatch more of his chances.

He scored 7 goals & granted some were vital. He missed plenty of easy chances through the season. He also had expected assist stat of 0.05 per 90, which is terrible.

Agreed Doucoure isn’t the greatest of players on the but through sheer hard work grit and determination he managed 7 goals and 2 assists the same stats as Dom, yet he surely run more miles per game than most and was a box to box midfielder in the true sense of what it means to be a box to box midfielder. And I would guess that he was one of the first names on the team sheet every week when available, where we know Onana, Garner, and Harrison weren’t. Having said all that he isn’t the finished article and if we could find a box to box midfielder with his engine and desire, who would get you 10-12 goals a season with 6-8 assists and bags of ability on the ball I’d have him over Doucoure in a blink of an eye, and they do exist but they cost around 70 million and want 150k plus a week, but who knows maybe Dele could be that player again.

I'm not faulting his work ethic & I have always praised it in fact. Doucs plays a very different role to Onana & Garner whilst I mentioned Harrison earlier in the same breathe as Doucs. I also don't think I would consider Doucoure a box to box midfielder under Dyche. Regardless I appreciate his work ethic which is always second to none however if we want more goals in the team & from Dom an attacking midfielder with real technical ability is a must.

The space he creates, the option he gives as a target man to get the ball further up field when our midfield can't pass to a blue shirt... He will be very sorely missed because I don't see anyone else doing all that. StevO, Sev and Sibdane 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good squad player but if we want to push on for top 10 I firmly believe we need more from that position than someone who runs his socks off.
