"Your deal with Sporting CP saw Richard Ríos arrive and Boulaye Dia depart. Walk us through the thinking."
We wanted extra cover in the middle of the pitch. We have Kante and Bernardo, therefore Richard gives us legs if necessary. Especially considering half of our team were in hospital and needed injections due to the hurrendous tackles received against Aston Villa. A game which ended early due to too many red cards. However, this isn’t the main talking point. The premier league and Everton have had a fragile relationship over the past few years, and recent events have added to that. Everyone knows us and Shrewsbury had a deal in plan. We made a deal which was a win/win for both of us. That would’ve seen us win the Rashford auction, therefore allowing us to acquire Kounde, sending Rashford the other way. However, we know about the corruption of Bournemouth. He has a past. Tax dodging in 2017, driving off without paying for Petrol, not having a TV license. He made a deal with Aston Villa deal in which they did not benefit. Tampering in which destroyed the negotiations between us and Shrewsbury. Knowing Bournemouth have recently been took over by those pesky Chelsea owners. It comes as no shock. We know they will get away with it. We urge teams like Hull City, Bologna, Nottingham Forest, Newcastle, Cardiff. To stand up against such corruption. Richard Masters has fucked us over the years, and continues to do so. Premier league, corrupt as fuck. I will speak no further.
