Maybe now but I doubt very much anyone offers him more than what we previously offered him and he rejected

He'll get an inflated signing on fee due to the lack of transfer fee if he finds a new club.

He's never fit and doesn't score goals. We apparently offered him a payrise. No way is he getting a 25m contract over 4 years anywhere at this point. He's an absolute punt for a Leeds or a Sunderland at this point

I saw a stat on his goals against XG, it’s dreadful

Weird that nothing has been announced with him and Keane. Makes me think they both have an offer on the table but discussions taking place and they're both probably in talks elsewhere too.

Poor that we haven't just cut them off imo but it is what it is at this point.

Not sure if it is poor or simply expedient. We have so many holes to fill and a limited budget to do it with. In particualr with Keane, circumstances may have changed the narrative. The injury to Tarks and the apparent speculation surrounding Branthwaite may give Moyes pause. As far as DCL is concerned, I'm guessing it's down to what Moyes has seen and whether he sees him as a risk worth taking, then it's all about the money.

Mental that Moyes is DCL's 8th full-time manager at Goodison in 9 seasons, we really are (hopefully were) a basket case.

"then it's all about the money."
I think this is spot on for both DCL and keane.....If a sensible offer comes in for both Moyes is shrewd enough to way up the pro's and cons of the deals.
Then it's also dependent on who he wants to buy and utilise the sale fees.
Then there's the PSR to consider even though we maybe out of the woodwork with this...
I cant see him letting either go "just for the sake of it" for want of a better expression...

Doesn't seem like there's much interest in either player from other clubs, would have expected a link or two to be floating around but it's incredibly quiet regarding them.

Probably don't t want to sign them up yet and start paying the salary, wouldn't be surprised if it gets closer to July

Not queuing up for Gana either by that logic

He’s 35.

Other than offers from the Middle East I don’t see anyone queuing up for him as good as he is.

Dom has been horrendously advised. Demanding 150k a week after you’ve spent the last three years injured and struggling infront of goal was a terrible move.

Now it looks as though we’re his best option. He’d be at newcastle or another bigger club if he didn’t overvalue his worth.

We offered him a payrise didn't we. If that's the case it couldn't have been much short of 150 anyway. Think he wanted that money and away from everton. Unfortunately we were the only 1s daft enough then and his stocks gone down since
