Anyone who genuinely thinks that picking up a 25 yr old, current England international with lots of Premier League exp. (and a winners' medal to boot)is not good business for our club really is a little bit sad!!
I'm not saying he is world class or my fav player, but what do you expect us to do? Go out and buy Pogba or Vidal? Of course, everyone knows how wealthy we are. Why not splash the cash!!
Come back to reality! We have just acquired an 8-10m pound player for nothing!! Whatever way you look at it this is good business for Everton. You can say he is sh@te all you want. but most of you don't have much of a reliable track record in your judgement of talent, do you?
I have heard the same rubbish about Coleman, Barry, Naisy, McCarthy, Fellaini, Gibbo etc. etc. Yep you were all spot on about those guys!!
This is a Great bit of business for the Blues so stop all the nonsense and get behind the player. If he turns out to be awful we can sell him on for a decent fee. Wow! How terrible!!

Amen. I remember what was said about Coleman. Give Clevs a chance. A lot of time to go to see how RM and Blues front office fills out the squad b

his England caps are irrelevant. He has more than Le Tissier, if you could have one at their pomp who would you have. He isn't free, 2m signing on fee and 50k a week. You can mention them players. They weren't crap EVERYWHERE they have been and been hated by EVERYONE they have played under. Anyone who doesn't think it is brilliant business is simply looking at the facts.

Well said aflm good business as you say def sell on fee if we chose to sell further down the line
{Ed025's Note - maybe thats what we have become as supporters coby..brainwashed into thinking that a player who cant get in any top 10 side is good enough for us, or maybe we can make a fast buck on him!...sad really..

As a business any sell on value is good business IMO as I said before I don't really rate him under fergie many were rating him as a fantastic player like many united players are, providing McCarthy or besic don't make way for him then I don't really c this as terrible business as we are very short on numbers so a few decent frees won't do us any harm like most on here I was one who did not want Lennon, think now most will agree that he done really well and changed a lot of opinions whether we rate clevs or not I hope he will be givin a chance before everyone turns on him
{Ed025's Note - i think they will coby..

He's awful, been terrible all season no better than what we have so is it good business to sign someone who dosnt improve you of course it is, I see a lot of fans saying let's get behind him I was at every home game and it was silent so that's tosh aswell

Mike and Ed025 we can't afford to go out and sign the really top players that's sad but also a fact!! So moan all you like but needs must! Would any of us actually look to sign Cleverly if money wasn't an issue. Certainly not! However it is an issue and therefore this is good business.
{Ed025's Note - good business yes maybe aflm, am i happy to see my club used as a cash cow....no...

You miss my point don't sign him at all, pointless he's an attacking midfielder who didn't create a shot for villa in the final, not goal they never had a shot
