[Long slender neck]

Leyton Orient are delighted to have secured the signing of highly-rated midfielder Lewis Warrington.

The 21-year-old joins the O’s on a two-year contract, having left Premier League club Everton earlier this summer.


Warrington, an energetic central midfielder, had spent 15 years with the Toffees and made his top-flight debut on the final day of the 2023/24 campaign.

Never heard of him. Happy with this.

Never heard of him. Happy with this.

No , I've never heard of him either . I'll need to speak with one of my work friends who's a keen Everton Supporter to get his option of him . However he sounds like a good signing and at only 21 he has time on his side to improve .

[The Reverend]

No idea who he is. Does have league experience through a couple of loans and is still young. I have a feeling it’s a decent signing but time will tell.

[B.whitehouse+10more]

Looks a great signing, well done the comittee

[Mistadobalina]

Fact that he got a loan to a championship club off the back of a season in league 1 bodes well, even if he didn't play at Plymouth.

That's mizouni's replacement sorted. Just the keeper, 2 full backs and a new no. 10 to go.

[Hoover Attack]

And Agyeis cover.

No idea what the lad is like but fits our system of developing young cast offs, plus has some experience already.

Midfield from him, Brown, Obeiro and Galbraith is mighty young - Prats experience will be needed.

Feel we needed a senior player in midfield, cant replace El Miz with a PL castoff.

[Chief crazy horse]

Hopefully he can get us out of a sticky situation in midfield.

El Miz was a 21 year League 1 cast off when he arrived.

Agree, although technically El Miz is also a premier league castoff

[Cheshunto]

My sons business partner is a big Everton fan and says we have ourselves “A very good player “
Time will tell, but El Miz’ will be a hard act to follow.

[Long slender neck]

Fair point, just dont see it as the right signing for a team that is serious about promotion.

[Hoover Attack]

League 1 cast off, if you want to be harsh.

I have no problem with this concept - both Galbraith and O'Neill have proven it can be a success. (Although as already mentioned, totally accept we are lacking in experience in the midfield areas). I guess decent L1 journeymen come at a higher price than an unproven 21 year old?

[Proposition Joe]

Feels like the sort of signing people often say we *should* make, so can't knock it. Young, PL graduate with a full season at this level.already under his belt. Optimistic.

Very true. RW will make him into another El Miz. Sooner have a 21 year old than a 30 year old who travels around for a final pay cheque. I think it is good business.

Follows our new business plan...buy young, sell for good money. Certainly seems like a good player. Galbraith mark II perhaps?

L1 journeymen are also more likely to have knees that have either already been torn apart or are one knock away from imploding.

Yep me too Chief, I hope he arrives in mint condition

[Qin]

This is a very good signing

Lots of Everton fans coming on Twitter, saying we got a good un.

A real grafter, and aggressive.

Can't wait to see him

Fact that he got a loan to a championship club off the back of a season in league 1 bodes well, even if he didn't play at Plymouth.

That's mizouni's replacement sorted. Just the keeper, 2 full backs and a new no. 10 to go.

I thought the feeling on here was that we needed two CM. We've signed one so still need another one .

As if “the feeling on here” had any relevance to anything what so ever. It’s a dozen people regurgitating the same tripe over and over again in an increasingly unhinged manner.

I thought they were an extension of the transfer committee that they mock
