I have a feeling at least one of the swap signings we had no real expectation for, may surprise us all and turn out to be a gem. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oddly enough it just happened to be the exact same as we received for Tim. It's almost as if both clubs agreed to swap young players to boost their balance sheets. Of course it would be hugely cynical to suggest that was the case. It's all just a coincidence. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone thinks they know more than they do on this forum! I don't think anybody isn't. Just that he isn't a signing for right now. After a season with only one league start, he absolutely needs a season being a regular and I'm sure the club will find a move that will provide him with that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are two decent youngsters. I can see both doing more than some are expecting. Tim I think especially will play a lot of games for Everton. Funnily enough his gap seems to be mental (Emery said as much) and Dyche might actually be really good for that side of things for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 I'd be amazed if he ever starts a prem game for us. Near certainty to be loaned out to the championship by January at the latest. We do well sending loans to Boro so that wouldn't surprise me at all. Was also at Derby in 22/23 so they might fancy him back with their promotion.

Yeah thats how I see it, 6 months training under Emery and then if he’s had no games then a loan to a promotion chasing team and then a decision to be made on him next summer. I think they’ve seen the qualities in him that can either be an asset to us or if not flip him next summer hopefully for a profit.

On paper right now, hes a better propsect than Tim, many saying he wont feature but hes got 20 odd prem appearances and a goal. We also expected Tim to feature at the end of the year so why not this guy? I still dont believe Unai would buy a player he didnt believe in.
