rodders0223 Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 Everton are hemorrhaging money and selling anyone this summer again if a good offer comes in. They won't be paying for Dendoncker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

david-avfc Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 5 hours ago, mikeyp102 said: Personally it was always such a strange signing, especially for the price we paid. Wolves fans were happy to get rid. I heard from a few places that it was basically a panic buy thinking Luiz would be off to Arsenal, in the end he obviously renewed his contract and now Dendoncker looks like a stupid signing. Similar story with Sanson, we bought him thinking Man City were going to activate Luiz's buy-back clause but they never did... so somehow Luiz has destroyed 2 villa careers and wasted over £25m in transfer fees!! It shows how lucky we are to have him though if those 2 are the calibre of players we lined up as replacements 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keener window-cleaner Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 5 hours ago, MaVilla said: he would suit everton tbh, low block, compact, he doesnt need to move much, i think he would do great there tbh. I think donks problem is that he doesnt suit any form of expansive game, at Everton he would be great as a pure deep holding DM. Fully agree, as that is his position. Both at Wolves and for Belgium he played DCM or defender in a back three. I dont like some of the stuff I read about big Donk on here at all, he is defensively a very good player, CDM breaking up play is his thing, his positioning and reading of the game is top class, he is tall and strong. He is not a good passer though, and will therefore never work in an Emery team. Asked to play CM and pass the ball around we will see lapses and mistakes from him. If he gets the ball he should kick it long or go for a safe sideways pass. Doing that and taking care of the defensive duties he is top class and deserves al lot of respect for it. But he will never be suited to playing for us under Emery. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donk's bigger problem for Unai's system is that he just isn't good enough with the ball and you can't trust him not to give the ball away in his own third. That probably won't be a problem for him at Everton, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powehi Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 Any word on shifting this fella? Or could he stick around as backup next season with some of the CM departures? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jas10 Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 (edited) I’m sorry but… please get rid of this guy asap. The stupidity of Purslow and Gerrard has probably been exposed more than ever in this window Edited June 13 by Jas10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 The Donk atm trying to blend into the surroundings a Bodymoor Heath so than Villa don't remember he's still at the club. Wonder if Everton would be interested in yet another PSR swap thingy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaParkAvenue Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Donk is a perfect Dyche midfielder. Tall, strong and doesn’t mind If the ball is being twatted long over his head. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thabucks Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 He’s a perfectly capable premier league midfielder - just not good enough for where we are and have aspirations of staying. Hoping he gets a good move for his sake and we get his wages of the books … 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Xela Posted July 13 Popular Post Share Posted July 13 Lot of disrespect on here towards Donk. He's a solid player who we could have done with towards the end of last season. Not his fault he's earning what he is. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CVByrne Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 He'll find a loan for sure. No chance he'll leave permanently and take a pay cut with 2 years left on contract and nobody will pay the £6.5m needed for us to not book a loss. This is a financial hit ala Coutinho, hopefully we can minimise it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
