Interesting, Delap visits house No37 Goodison Rd and signs the wall. (video on X) . Is this a hint for things to come?
While we are at it can we ask Brighton if they would like to sell Encisco please.

Hope moyesys watching the old firm today watch raskin get him bought.

I'd be happy with delap, richarlison and Tom fellows, for me that would be all the front 3 covered as well as what we have .
Not sure about the rest of the team yet.

Just wondering why anyone would want Richarlison back?
He was great for us, however since he left he’s been plagued by injuries and shown nowhere near the levels he did for us. He’d also want decent wages to come back and Spurs wouldn’t let him go for cheap.
Very rarely works bringing back former players, I wish him well but wouldn’t want the club spending a chunk of the transfer budget on him to bring him back.
If a loan was available then that would probably be the sensible option if we were indeed wanting him back.

I reckon Delap will end up in London somewhere.
If we had the Richy of old, I’d bite your hand off but I think he’s past that and could be more of a burden.
Levy won’t sanction a loan unless loan to buy (for stupid amount) so can’t see that happening Gingerdan. Reckon Fellows is the only goer out of deals mentioned so far.

Maybe because of the fact that he scores goals and is a talented footballer. Not taking into account that he is head an shoulders above the likes of McNeil and Harrison or that he loves the club and is guaranteed to give his all for the shirt.
He bagged 11 goals for Spurs last season in approx. 1400 minutes. That is roughly the same numbers he hit for us but about 1000 minutes less game time.
Granted he hasn't had the best luck with injuries but he still has 4 goals in 470 minutes this season.
If you get him fit, he scores.
I personally couldn't care less if we have him back or not tbh but you wondered why and I think the reasons are fairly obvious. He unequivocally imrpoves us.

Good account of Ricky BN.
05 May 2025 08:07:36
Spurs play him as a 9, I don't think he is a 9. I agree, get him fit, keep him fit. I don't see what the fuss is with Delap.
05 May 2025 10:25:04
There is something to be said that their whole team has been decimated by injuries this season and that is probably down to the way the manager wants them to play or are they ALL just injury prone like Richy.
05 May 2025 11:38:54
Brazil play him as a 9 too but I agree he's best on the left. Arrrgggghhhh I've bitten on another Rikky post. See you in 3 days when this repeats over and over and over.
05 May 2025 12:20:53
Richy will be fit as a fiddle nxt season as he will want his place back for brazil amazing how players are fit when major tournaments are coming up. worth a punt if the contract is right for us I reckon.
05 May 2025 12:37:35
Strange how players find injuries when they’re not happy with the manager. We’ve had a few.
05 May 2025 20:04:10
Yep inclined to agree I think players who are happy tend not to get injured as often.
05 May 2025 23:17:51
Great reply BN, just about covers everything Richie related pal!
I would take him on loan for next season to see if he can overcome his injury problems before shelling out cash on him. He improves the squad without doubt and also the starting eleven so it's a gamble I wouldn't moan about personally.
