    I said a long while ago he's half Viera, half Carlton Palmer. Which isn't really a bad thing.

    In terms of average performance Carlton Palmer was a better player

    There's pictures on social media of him in Liverpool last night so I imagine it's close now.

    Toumani Diagouraga “ Remember him “ now playing for Morecambe age 33 was also compared with Viera when with us!

    If you go back and read the Doucoure thread from last season you will see plenty of people complaining about his performances. Hughes and Capoue have been miles better than him for a while now, Doucoure hasn't had any real impact for a long time 22 million isn't a bad deal for us IMO.

    Do agree with this, I think it's a good deal for both sides. He's currently not a £22m player, however I do think he will perform much better at Everton and will look far better than £22m.

    It’s all over twitter. Allan and Marcel Brands were there too - it’s The Titanic Hotel in Liverpool which I assume is where Everton have put them all.

    Stayed a few nights there. Excellent hotel. Thoroughly recommend the Liverpool gin and tonic with a wedge of watermelon.

    Going by Everton prices, I imagine it’s worth about £4 but you pay £25?

    “Ah, Monsieur Doucoure. We’ve booked you a first class suite. The captain will be with you shortly but he’s dealing with the fact your transfer leaked. I can assure you it’s nothing to worry about though.”

    If he doesn't sign now does he have to be quarantined for 2 weeks due to having stayed in Merseyside?

    Nothing to do with the virus, just the fact he stayed in Merseyside.

    He was born in the Hague and has many caps for the Netherlands at all ages. Not sure why you consider he is not an overseas player?

    Because he was in the UK during his development phase. 3 years before age of 21.

    Because he was developed in the UK for the required amount of time before he was 21. He counts as homegrown.

    That’s why.

    :D Best of luck to him. Fell off a cliff last season. He won't win any silverware with them though so if he thinks he does he is in for a rude awakening. Let alone getting into the CL.

    Perhaps he has undergone an epiphany and concluded that this is as good as it is going to get.
    Or perhaps he'll apply the 'Deeney Principle' and burble on and on about how he could do this and that and hope some old idiot is daft enough to waste huge wads of cash on him.
    Who knows?
    Who cares?!
