£40m Bid Made For Sigurdsson

45-50 mill for Gylfi is absolutely acceptable. He runs the most of anyone, can score with both feet and does it a lot, assists a lot, doesnt hold up play for his own gain, and he does not rely on pace so at his age he might actually get better the next couple of years.

Edit: And just the fact that he's a proven PL player and speaks the language almost justifies the sum by itself. That in itself is almost priceless.
 
City are paying £100 million for a couple of full backs. It puts 45-50 million for Siggy into more perspective. If we really want him, we'll get him. Its nothing to do with idealism and 'the Everton way' or even 'the sensible way'. Its just the way football is today. A simile for you...'top pop stars' used to perform at the Empire in front of 2000 people, now they perform in front of 25-60 thousand people in arenas. BECAUSE OF THE MONEY.
Dave...if players are earning £150k a week, this puts a massive premium, most of the time, on what they cost to 'buy'.
 
Well so far today, we have seen Mo Salah called elite and Dave spouting his usual anti-Everton agenda.

is this an Everton forum or a home for mentally unstable?

Unfortunately Salah is really, really good. Don't mind being vaulted on that but I was gutted when they got him.
 

Look I'm not going to question RK at this point, but this doesn't seem necessary to me. I'd rather be buying another centre half right now.

He wasn't in this league. It really is a different beast.

Salah is fast but applying your pace here is difficult if you don't have the right physicality in your game. Hell, Magaye Gueye was described as "quick" when we signed him and he played like he was in slow motion.
 

Aye, as I'm wondering how you will fit those midfielders and attackers down on paper with a sub for each...that's what i was alluding to.

Can you show me how that works and i'll show you mine which looks pretty different.

Right... well I did but guess I can do it again.

Originally I said an attacking line-up of this would be good vs Stoke:

Klaassen -- Schneiderlin -- Gana
Sigurdsson
Rooney -- Sandro

You said "meh, where's the excitement?"

I said the replacements can be say

Davies -- Besic -- McCarthy/Barry
Dowell/Lookman
Mirallas -- DCL/??

Simple stuff.

So out of the original line-up I proposed that you found boring who would you swap out/sign for the Stoke game? Attainable and available players only.

see the goatanalysis thread :0
 
Get him in now, No excuses. He will be terrific here. The fee is monstrous...yet if "daft.. prat.. Chav gone in 60 seconds" Walker is worth £50 million English pounds.... Well... What the hell.
