Confirmed Signing Cenk Tosun

[Chewbacca]

Just been speaking to someone who loves Turkish Delight chocolate bars and they've said this kid is the real deal so for that reason I'm gonna go massively overboard on this player until he signs and miscontrols his first touch

To be fair Jelavic scored 8 goals from his first 8 touches. That’s the benchmark for any new forward.

 

[maccavennie]

I've just had a massive Turkish Delight and I'm now suffering from ringburn, so for that reason I'm out.

lol

Successful before most of these players were even born. On the scheme of things we are pretty insignificant

Everton is not 'pretty insignificant.' If we are God knows where that leaves the other 88 or so clubs that have less to shout about than we do. We are just trying to re-establish ourselves after a long period where we just haven't had the finances to be a serious competitor. Players and their agents will know that. If we pay them the money and show the ambition, they will still sign for Everton.

On the scale of world football, we are insignificant.

And Man City? Way behind us yet they signed Robinho, Tevez & Mascherano when the money arrived. You said we couldn't sign top foreign players. We can if we have the cash.

Tosun > Deeney

Perspective lads.....

Don't care? Why ask me to expand then?

I was just curious if you didn't want this risk player which sure thing you wanted.

Yeah sorry about that bit chief

Opinions innit x

But all the names you mentioned are major gambles and most of them would cost more than this fella.

That's my point, we should just splash on a quality centre forward. Obvs not for the sake of it like that would be mad.

Most of these are proven, there's a few gambles on there like but no more so than this fella, all younger as well

None of these are proven, in this league, it cant be stressed how different this league is to like the others.

Volland, Finnbogason, Werner, Haller, Bakambu, Willian Jose, Immobile, Aboubakar, Dost

As has been said, I wouldnt say Batsususuui is proven at all, so that leaves an injured Giroud and Llorente who really isnt a great age.

Personally I would go for Immobile, but h would cost big, big money and would be just as much of a gamble as this Turkish would be, for 4 times the price.

If you gonna take a gamble and we do need to take a gamble, cos the other options are utter trash like Deeney, you might as well get somebody in with a decent record in the CL like this fella.

Well said goat.
Just really partial to aboubakar

Just hope we actually get a striker in this window

Aboubakar for me, too. Just seems like a better all around player than a lot of these guys. Pace AND power.

That being said, Tosun would've been an improvement over that garbage today.

 

[Seathestars]

Proper jarg name that

Swerve

I agree, it’s that bad I’m not even sure what way to pronounce it.

 

[Wat Tyler]

If he has watched us he will know he has to create all his own chances.
