Is it a sensible move to offer Mason Holgate a new long-term contract?No, he's not good enough
Yes, we need to keep him |
Over 14 games in all competitions so far this term, the defender has one goal and two assists (per Transfermarkt), with an average rating of 6.62/10 for the Toffees (per Whoscored).
After a string of impressive performances in recent weeks under Duncan Ferguson, supporters were desperate to see the 23-year-old sign on the dotted line.
BEST DAY EVER

What do we think?
Holgate has certainly been proving his worth in recent weeks having received a rating of 7.12 and 6.99 in his last two Premier League fixtures. And, if it is true that other clubs may be circling for him, then it makes all the more sense to tie him down to a long term contract.
