I've said on loads of previous threads that D4 IMHO is a waste of a wage. I like Robbie, but clearly the EPL is way too physical for him.
I'd cut the losses and get two in ASAP.
Wasn’t a pop at you BT I just thing we miss the bigger picture sometimes, we see one thing and someone else sees another,
My point was if Dyche is accepting them as part of our premiership team it’s a poor do , I wouldn’t like to think I was relying on defour or Brady to make us competitive at this level ( I like defour but his body can’t deal with the premiership football physicality).
Brady looks very timid and weak to me.
We absolutely shouldn’t have renewed Defour s contract , personally I’d have got both of them off the wage bill and got a younger fitter competitive player in.
Not a criticism of anyone just an opinion

Tom Davies and Tom Davies, BT! I'm not relenting. He plays 60km away from Burnley so it's not geographically imperceptible that he could handle Turf Moor as a home. In his 12 appearances for Everton since March 2019 he has warmed the bench 7 times, the remaining time is made up of substitute appearances totalling 21 minutes. He is a wasted talent. Transfrmkt has him at 15 million, Defour is at 5 million. He should be a January target, starting CM or AM. Surely the weekly wage would be similar, so it's just a matter of the 15 million less what we get for Defour. The right encouragement regarding starting XI opportunities would get him over the line.
Hed be a decent signing I think Oz , right age might be interested if he gets game time as well, I know this much we’d be stronger with him than without him.
So who is to blame for that surprise home defeat to Crystal Palace? Some Man Utd fans disgruntled at their summer window when they only added Daniel James, Wan-Bissaka and Maguire. Maybe they should have kept Lukaku and dumped Lingard? No pleasing folks is there.
Sorry BT, born and bred in Australia. I'm afraid I'd just be another Aussie expat taking an English person's job! Just hope Rigg is feeling game enough to have a go.
