All the current "links" seem to be some random nobody saying "Villa should have a look at x player", ie not an actual link at all.

I think you've massively underestimated the Richarlison links - this was some random nobody on Twitter...

To be fair, he seemed to call the Carlos deal before it happened, or at least that we were looking at a South American CB - how much was conjecture rather than actual info is anyone's guess. It could well be nothing, but it's been a bit quiet on this thread for a few days.

Don't get the Richarlison hype and they'd want stupid money. Everton are always selling players for ridiculous amounts. Get Mbappe and make Real Madrid cry, please.
No I am not in favour of Mbappe coming here as he wont be happy being cover for Davis.

I think you will find it's Richard Arlison they are linking. He also runs a transport company.

Can't help thinking that your standards might be setting you up for disappointment.

I'm not a fan of Richarlison, as much as anyone else there he sums up why Everton have been on a downward trend for a few years. At his best he's a good player but his best happens every 4 or 5 games and the rest of the time he's not worth a shirt. For me it would be a huge cost to get a brazilian version of Bertie.

At he's best he's excellent, but I agree with you I don't think his consistency or attitude is up to scratch.

It's hard to tell though when a player is in a genuinely shit team.

True, but he's been inconsistent for them for 4 season, including one where they finished 8th.

We have enough grumpy fuckers in the stand without adding one on the pitch.

He'll come in handy then when we decide to park the bus.

Not sure about that one. He's half decent but i don't see him 'pushing us on' and i think we need a finisher / someone who can hold the ball up more than another creative wide player.
