A real shame he hasn't kicked on. A real talent that stagnated at Chelsea. I wonder if someone like Palace or Brentford would be a good place for him. Wherever he goes, he needs to start playing week in week out.

Quite a few players have stagnated at Chelsea.
 
Any truth Everton turned down £25 plus Gallagher and Broja for Anthony Gordon???? If so why?

Talk that Toney is available for £40m, surely everyone should be forming an orderly queue at that price!!!

£25 won't buy you much these days, it'll power the microwave for one meal at best ;) If you're a selling club, you don't sell 3 days before the window closes. You wait until the end and the price will creep up and up. You also have a deal done in the background so clubs can't fleece you with the money on a replacement. Then again it's Everton so who knows :ROFLMAO:

still an ok deal at £25 lol, but I did mean £25m :)

this isnt just a sale though is it, its a swap plus cash where they could solve a few of their problems and get some money in the kitty to spend in the next few days........ no youre right, it is Everton ?

Probably the worst club for collecting and then not using / developing young talent. Whilst the money is good, it isn't a great long term career plan. Anthony Gordon needs to take this into account.
It's just paper talk still, only from one source so far. No real momentum in it so far. I'd be amazed if that was the deal and they said no. Everton need both those types of players plus money, it's a no brainer.

As for Toney, that's a steal.

I admire how ruthless Chelsea are with players who aren’t good enough though.

That said, they frequently change their managers so it’s not surprising the turnover of players.

Apparently Gordon has no desire in leaving Everton. I don’t think he’s worth anywhere near what’s been touted. Gallagher would be an improvement IMO. Not sure about Borja neither though I haven’t seen much of him.

Toney would be a bargain at £40m, just not sure he’d cut it at a top 4/6 side.

Very hard to settle there I'd imagine, you need to be a certain type of character. I don't think you are going to get much of an arm around your shoulder and if you don't work quickly then you won't get much chance to grow into the team. It's worked for them but they don't half burn through money and players.

Just dont see the hype with Gordon, maybe Im wrong but not seen anything that makes him more than a 20m player apart from being British. I like Broja, think he'd do a decent job for mid prem sides and think Gallagher has the potential to be top class

Id have Toney at Arsenal in a heartbeat, have said that for a couple of years

Toney would be ideal at Arsenal as he'd offer something different plus Jesus can work out wide. The main issue with Arsenal is if Jesus gets injured the drop off is so vast. Can't see Arsenal spending that after giving Nketiah a big new deal though..

I never rated Barkley that much. Great ability with his feet but no football brain, so often seems to make the wrong decision. Could certainly see him going back to Everton now. Not surprised he didn't succeed at Chelsea, I think most people could have seen that coming.
