Player Demarai Gray

[Phil H]

Why’s he only £1.5m?

Cause he’s fucking shite

 

[Gilroy]

Why’s he only £1.5m?

Must be a release clause. He’s worth more than that.

 

[frank rizzo]

Surely this is not the summer spree carlo was expecting no wonder he fucked off

Thats mental if they’ve agreed to such a low release clause. Almost as mental as letting your manager walk for free if a ‘big’ club comes in for you.

At least it’s not just us who are completely incompetent.

 

[BraintreeBlue]

only signed for 18 months didnt he? in 6 months he can leave them for nothing.

That would make sense if he hadn't gone to Madrid, who are still trying to start a european super league because they're in that much debt.

 

[snoopjiggyjigg]

Underwhelming signings. Hopefully the wages are low.

Gray had worse end product than Bolasie and Townsend is a run of the mill workhorse with a bit of trickery every now and then.

Not the signings of a club with European ambitions.

For the 18 months he'll be there they'll still make signings and play CL to the latter stages. Also, if the discussion about the situation there was in any way honest/realistic and he knows what he's going to it shouldn't be a problem. He clearly got sold a load of bollocks by our club.

He hasn't jumped to Madrid for any other reason than it's Madrid and he'll have a nicer life out there. Fuck him.

 

[Kyoto]

If he's our winger to start games = it's shite.
If he's signed while signing an actual right winger = it's good.
It's a signing you can see the positives of, Still only 25 and PL experienced, I can get behind this one.

 

[bluerinse]

The Echo and Myers don't think it's especially advanced.

Romano and Joyce do.

Done deal then.

 

[snoopjiggyjigg]

Gray is okay, especially at that fee. He's not amazing though but still young enough to improve

 

[Consayblue22]

This one has potential at least, but he needs to start realising it soon.

 

[Gilroy]

Had previously tweeted that he has a 2m Euro buyout clause this summer.

2m Euro buyout is just weird.

 

[toffee_boy_andy]

Weird clause indeed. Looks like an insurance policy, in case he didn’t like Germany.

Given that there’s such a specific and cheap clause in the deal, I don’t really see how it could miles away from completion.

Unlike Townsend, which I can’t begin to understand, I quite like this deal. He’ll probably play quite a lot for us imo.

 

[Mike]

2m in forrun money is basically peanuts in BRITISH money. It probably just covers the cost of his salary whilst he's been there.

I'm expecting little to nothing but if he gets his shit together who knows.

 

[DannyEFC]

For buttons he could be a really good signing.

Pace to burn and lots to prove - absolutely no issues with him being a squad player.
