Tbf though saying that I'll always appreciate the goals, he's scored a lot, also thank him for his unswerving commitment but its now time to say bye.

It's crazy to think he's been at the club longer than Henry, Vieira, Ljungberg, and Bergkamp were.

Shame about his ACL injury, he was never the same after that.

Goodbye.

He aint gone yet!!

So perhaps Everton will take profit from our years of nurturing a player that has not hit his potential yet. Perhaps he will peak at 30-35 :dontknow:

Either way, one shall lose absolutely no sleep about him leaving, in fact, one will sleep very well actually.

This must be what it feels like to get divorced after a loveless marriage. I'm so happy I just want to go for a stroll in the hills, picking flowers.

No hard feelings against Theo whatsoever. Not the standard we should be aiming at, but scored some big big goals for us and I appreciate his service

Good luck m8

£7,280,000 in annual wages freed up by selling Theo alone.

Plus the £20m Everton will be paying for him, of course.

Just for reference Ribery, Robben, Neuer, Vidal and Lewandowski are on similar salaries at Bayern.

Yup. Gave me some fantastic memories along the way, but it was time a long time ago. Best of luck to him. I hope he finds some proper form at Everton.

Use his wages to bump up Ozils contract offer. Need to keep him badly.
