Who is his agent? He's letting him down I think, I'd have had Ellis out in the summer in his shoes but maybe his personality leads him to sticking with what he knows.

Goodness knows! King commented at the weekend about the facilities being just the same as anywhere else without the football branding. I bet it's in need of a good facelift too by know

Dasilva just has no goals and 1 assist or something equally not good enough to go with numerous mistakes out our end costing goals. I'd take him there myself but it's BS

The way Robins stood by him and liked having him around the squad was a good thing. It says that he wasn't just taking his wages and going for a few beers. To be honest he might have been more useful to us than Maguire if he wasn't booed out the club.

He's good enough as long as the other teams think that they have to mark him!

I think he might have had long covid issues. Fatigue. Just a hunch. It was all very hush hush around sports players at the time.

It always come down to the wage bill...

Why would anyone make up bollocks about Dasilva?

Still waiting...

I think the business case for each player is likely to be different so it probably doesn't work that way.

Instead of a sudden turning, I wonder if people were expecting Simmo to go over the summer and now realise that we're in for another bumpy ride.

"Put in a bid." Do they think they sell players on ebay or something! How do you "put in a bid" ffs?

It's pretty clear that the window hasn't gone entirely to plan but there's still some time left. I'd say we're probably not competitive with wages compared to some of the clubs that have been active.

The trouble is each time he does play and doesn't make an impact he denies an opportunity to the likes of Obikwu, for example, to develop. He might well benefit from 25 appearances this season, even if he only scores 4 or 5. I think that is a tough decision to be made if he doesn't go out.

I think so. Boddy said in his long interview. You took me too literally, it's the exception that proves the rule! My general point is still valid!

I lost count of the number of clubs that Mark Robins had been "linked with" Turns out nobody ever made a formal approach!

It's all these unnamed sources that are issue. "Sky has been told" etc. Means nothing by itself!

Depends who you believe. One persons "bid" is another persons "casual enquiry".

I think that goes without saying. This deal has obviously not emerged over Friday night! King mentioned Nicola by name at the w/e.

If you read this nice story piece about Ellis in his younger days in Liverpool he just isn't recognisable as the same player, apart from the very shy kid bit! https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/inside-story-rise-evertons-goalscoring-16451711
