Odds on him doing an ‘Unsworth’?

Sign for us then leave without playing?

He obviously loves Everton, i wonder if he now regrets signing for us.

I'll bet he doesn't. He may have loved them, and yes Rafa is now gone, but they aren't troubling the top half of the table any time soon, and he'd have realised that.
I reckon he's probably breathing a sigh of relief that he got out of there before Benitez got the chop and his replacement decided he'd like to keep him.

Rafa is a symptom of their problems more than a cause. He's at a club that just signed Coutinho, not one patting itself on the back because £1.7m Demerai Gray wasn't actually terrible to begin with.

I think we got lucky with the timing, but now he's made the jump I imagine he's extremely excited to play with some of our players, particularly Coutinho.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say it's unlikely. https://twitter.com/LucasDigne/status/1482459434672664579

Can't Twitter come-up with a proper claret colour in their pantone mix? Our players are all reduced to selecting purple, with understandable hesitation.

Apologies if this has been posted before, but I just realised that Lucas scored for us against Everton earlier in the season.

He was channelling his inner Kent Nielsen in an effort to impress us.

Well we already cashed in his 4 yellow cards, so he's not suspended despite getting booked for that awful wrong-footed challenge against Yanited.
