Dcl is to join Newcastle for £25 million on £125k per week, deal to be announced on 1st June, any truth?
{Ed025's Note - just speculation at the moment OD..

Wouldn't surprise me if he went. Personally I think he'd be a massive loss and we'd really struggle to find a player that fits the system the way he does.
{Ed025's Note - im with you Chris..

Not sure how I feel about that, seems low knowing what he is capable of and how valuable he is to our set up and limited striker options, but then if he breaks down again could be another 6months out.
Know he is 32 but with or without Dom leaving I'd like us to go in for Callum Wilson, apparently wants out, experience head and knows where the net is, still got a season or 2 left him in in top flight til hopefully our finances get sorted, ideally try if Dom does go for a season loan.
24 May 2024 19:15:26
we would want more than £25M.
24 May 2024 20:02:08
Is DCL going to replace isak because they want £200 Million for him apparently?
24 May 2024 20:09:21
He didn’t play much last season but I wouldn’t want to see him go.
24 May 2024 21:05:04
Any chance of Callum Wilson in return. Wishful thinking I know.
24 May 2024 21:16:22
Problem is he’s in last year of his contract so very little chance we’ll get a massive fee for him and £25m is probably a decent price based on this.
Would rather us keep him as he can score goals and we’ve stuck with him through all his injuries and would hate to see him banging in goals for another team in the premier league.
Hopefully he signs a new contract and then if decides to leave we can ask for a bigger price - however got a feeling he’ll ask to leave as can’t be fun playing for us at the moment and he’s also had some considerable stick from some of the fan base.

How can we lose him for this after paying £30m for Beto! Typical Everton Beto might be as bad as tosun and straq and yet we are going to lose the only decent striker we have had in years for next to nothing. It never rains it pours with Everton!
{Ed025's Note - nail on the head there Chris mate..

I'm surprised that the rumour fee is as high. What is it 52 goals in 6 years? Last year of contract and scored something like 10 in last 2 seasons? If all true I think he'd be desperate to get into a club like Newcastle and the fee seems pretty good to me. I'd bite their hand off.
25 May 2024 00:10:34
FBS on the money again.
Not sure what this "system" is, he is perfect for either if I am honest.
25 May 2024 00:16:10
Yes I would bite their hand off, I just can't see what you all see in him, he is finished.
25 May 2024 07:11:43
I'm a big fan of DCL but his record is t that great, he's living off one season, 25 million take it, he may get injured and be out most of the season you just never no with him.
25 May 2024 08:32:59
I'd rather loose dcl than Braithwaite so let him go didn't work out to well for big dunk did it couldn't wait to get back to the famous efc.
25 May 2024 10:27:12
Also how many goals did he score compared to beto and people are skating him in his first season, he may look like a big lump but he sat on the bench most of the time, beto could still be the man to lead the line and we also have the young lad can't spell his name, he's had a year now and so knows what to expect, I have high Hope's for him, we need fire power from other areas not just the strikers.
25 May 2024 12:38:31
I agree with dan and fbs posts as dan mentioned he is in his last year of his contract so dcl is going to look for 1 last pay rise i would be gutted if he went but you can't blame anyone for wanting to leave in our current situation and as fc pointed out aswell its going to be difficult to find a replacement to fit our system i'm just hoping dyche an thelwell can get our recruitment right cause with leicester back in prem and Leeds or Southampton we need many points as possible next season to stay in league.
27 May 2024 16:35:15
Let him go by all means but we need to replace him with someone who can hold the ball up just as well and can chip in with a few goals here and there. Beto doesn't look like he's the mam and wants out, apparently. So, the question is who do we bring in that would be both effective and in our price range?
