Exactly. They'd make themselves look ridiculous by selling under £50m now, there's no way they'd do that.

Unless there are add-ons like the Lukaku deal?

Or a £50m swap deal with Barkley? I don't know how I typed that with a straight face lol

Gone from happy with this, to excited, to bored & now I just don't want him.

Don't worry I'm a calm supporter I just miss the excitement of new revelations. Based on this summer this one has taken a lifetime.

I think that Everton are just letting Swansea stew now.

IMO, we've offer close to the maximum of what we would pay for him. Swansea know that Gylfi wants to come here.

Do they risk keeping an unhappy player on their books?

 

[helpimonfire]

Chill dudes.

plenty of time for him to sign.

The new Everton, everyone goes nuts when we go 1 week without a signing. Oh the difference from a few years back.

I'm very Bolasie about this whole thing as i'm really still not sure I even want him.

But if the bosses do then so be it.

he basically kept them in the league last year so probably worth the risk. Unless he really throws his toys out the pram (he doens't seem the sort) they'll hold out for 50m. The new TV money means no one has to sell anymore

Was meh, still meh.

Surely if they use their imagination they can find players from abroad with more potential and more of a sell on value.

Why are you arsed about sell-on value ffs? This absolutely baffles me with fans, as the same ones preaching 'sell on value' are usually the ones leading the rants when we sell a player...

And Koeman wants a player who he knows can cut it in the PL.

The issue with Ross, for all his good points, is his consistency. We're ideally bringing in Gylfi to compliment Ross, so it stands to reason we'd want a more consistent player - which Gylfi is, probably due to age.

There are some gems to be found abroad - Viera could well be one of them - but Gylfi is our no.1 target and has been for a while for that role.

You want someone who can 'potentially' succeed over someone who will succeed?
