Said he's 'not bad', more of a DM than an RB, and can't get in their team most weeks.

Doesn't sound great tbh, but actually probably still a massive upgrade on O'Brien there.
He was shite against us last weekend.
He has a bit of pace but offers nothing in attack and can’t defend either. Just seems to run around a lot.

🗞️Everton have an interest in Southampton Midfielder Leo Scienza. The 27 year old Brazilian also has interest from Aston Villa, Roma and Atalanta with a fee over €30M being possible

£25m release clause apparently... Plays as an AM but can operate on both wings too.

Sounds like a classic Moyes utility forward.

Had a look at the Southampton forum and they seem to rate him but some have reservations about him making the step up to anything above a lower end premier league team.

So perfect for us then 😬

Probably don’t need to worry about Bowen with him linked to Chelsea, Liverpool and United

Sounds like Alcaraz with limited upside.

Meh.

Yeah but in a different way.

That dyche side were Groks through and through and were going to remain so after they left, the Burnley side has actual footballers in it now

Aren't they worse. They get about 20 points every top flight season

Buying from relegated clubs doesn't mean the player will be shite though, we bought Gana from Villa when they went down and he turned out alright.
