As if it was not embarrassing enough when James McFadden returned to Goodison, it would appear that Everton are now ready to let him go out on loan!
It was always a strange move to bring him back, as pointed out at the time, the signing only highlights the current problems we have. The move wasn't ideal, it might not even work out, but beggars cannot be choosers sometimes.
With a short-term contract and no transfer fee as he was a free agent after leaving relegated Birmingham, usually you would think this was a cheap risk-free option. But considering he hadn't played football for over a year before the move back to Goodison following a serious knee injury, this move was anything but risk-free. It was simply just a cheap move, which so far hasn't worked out.
So it isn't much of a surprise that he is being linked with a loan to Burnley.
As long as we are cutting our costs it could be the right move for all concerned.
