Beckford To Everton

[Kinky Gerbil]

Really?!?

BBC Sport - Football - Everton sign former Leeds striker Jermaine Beckford

 

[The Wizard]

Deserves a chance at a higher level. Will be interesting to see how he does.

 

[mcshane in the 79th]

Good move for him. Really don't think he'll be all that in the Premiership though. Have always thought he was overrated, but now we'll see how good he really is

 

[MikeySmall]

Flop

 

[Southwick_Seagull]

Good move for him. Really don't think he'll be all that in the Premiership though. Have always thought he was overrated, but now we'll see how good he really is

Agreed

 

[JJ McClure]

Its a move thats been on the cards for a while, be interesting to see how he does.

 

[West Hoathly Seagull]

Another Michael Ricketts I suspect. Didn't he once play for Leeds too?

 

[Iamapen15]

Too bigger jump and not good enough for the Premiershite. He'll be back in the Championship or League One by January.

 

[ali jenkins]

Anyone with a bit of pace and a good finish will do well in League 1. You need alot more than that to do well in the Prem

 

[The Wizard]

I'm going to go against you all and say I think he will do okay, not sure why, but there is something about the guy that makes me think he will score goals at every level.

 

[withdeanwombat]

I agree that this seems a big step up for him,but that's what happens when he signs for a big club.

International?

 

[Iamapen15]

On top of not being good enough, IMHO, he has a piss poor attitude and by all accounts is a couple of sandwiches short of a picnic.

Can't believe it's a 4 year deal. BIG flop.

 

[Durlston]

If Yakubu and Louis Saha stay fit i can't see him breaking into the team. David Moyes is a shrewd manager though and will get the best out of him.

 

[HseagullsH]

Moyes has done a tremendous job with the lack of money he has had over the years compared to similar standard clubs. This signing is probably another sign that he doesn't have a big budget again this summer.

Think Moyes could develop him into a top premiership player though..

 

[Scotty Mac]

he'll be gash
