Yeah absolutely not ideal but that's where we find ourselves.
This narrative of Everton looking to sell Gordon so they can swallow the cash and non reinvest it is annoying.
All we've done is shower in £50 notes for years and wasted it.
What do we all know about Moshiri from his tenure? He likes to impress, clearly. (Although he's gotten it very wrong).
To think after we survived last year by the skin of our teeth that he's not going to reinvest every penny we get for Gordon is STUPID.
You big bunch of wet ones.
See you all next Tuesday.
To get £40m+ for Gordon now is an absolutely fantastic deal. Could he potentially be worth more in the future? Maybe. But in all likeliness this is the most he will ever be worth. We'd be foolish not to sell him.. it makes sense.
People buzzing over signings before a ball has been kicked is a problem in this fanbase and always has been, we’d convinced ourselves we’d had amazing transfer windows every season from 2016-2020 and now every player we signed during that period we’ve ended up desperately wanting rid of.

Kabuki...it's theatre...always talking to the fourth wall...and togger forums lap it up, (and amplify), the melodrama.
You are all being played.

id be happy to sell but worry about who the realistic replacements are
Why you throwing this around after a season of nearly getting relegated, then losing our best player and best young player, and not looking like we can score a goal unless an opponent does it for us?
I think people are entitled to be worried and not feel buzzing.
Sorry mate yes 2nd Jan I thought it was well sooner ?

Replacing Gordon and Richy with Terrier and Gibbs White on the surface seems like good business.
It'll be good for the books AND the two we've brought in have a better record of knowing where the goal is.
AND you know that big gaping hole throughout our defense and midfield?
We've filled it with B&Q's finest cement.
Nothings getting through there mate.
All gonna be A-Ok.

It’s clear another sale is required before any more substantial incomings. I’m not falling for a few of the narratives being pushed either.

New times my friend, new times.
Can I have the old times back?
Things can look good on paper but we need and out and out goalscorer and those players don't provide that. Midfield and defence are completely irrelevant while we have the least goal threat in the division. That gets a side relegated regardless of defence.
It's not like we have a world class defence either. We just improved it a bit, but still have conceded 2 poor goals to an average Villa side. The idea nothing is getting through our defence is just clearly not true.
If people would stop buzzing over new signings every time we sign someone, then we might get some reality back at this club. People don't even care who we are signing, just that there is a shiny new player to obsess over. How about we judge the recruitment on its merits and how it will help fix our weaknesses rather than getting carried away in July before we've even won a point or scored a goal.

You want us to seriously ask for £60m ? Gordon hasn't shown anything like that. And the others you referred to were a lot more established.
And who uses the word "dude" ?!

Because the window isn't over yet.
I'm taking away peoples entitlement to fume and you don't like it.
We know where we're at. We know we wanted to start the season with everything in place.
However, with the nature of the window running into the season and our budget restrictions, it's made it difficult.
Take them at their word. Judge them at the end of the window.
Then you have every right to fume.
