Everton confirm rejecting 28M for both Fellaini and baines

The thing is, why would United give us £20m for Baines now knowing that if he doesn't sign a new contract they can get him for a whole lot less in 12 months time.
 
When the £28m was rejected, most on here were saying "£35m and they'll be gone". Now we reject £36-£38m (depending on which report) and people are saying £40m and they'll be gone.

Notice a pattern there?

100% that latest offer wasn't £36m-£38m hard cash. It was probably something ridiculous like £25m upfront and the all kinds of add one based on appearances, champions league wins etc etc.

In my eyes £38m hard cash would have been accepted.

That rates Fellaini at £23m and a 28 year old Baines at £15m.

There's absolutely nothing to back up any of that, but could be right, I suppose.
 
If I'm being completely honest. Baines is worth a lot more to us than Fellaini. His true value should be around the £25m mark. It's his position that puts him out of that figure.
 

I'm so annoyed over this whole thing that I want us to stand up to Moyes and United more than anything else - consequences be damned. Felli might sulk, but he'll get over it.

I'm sick and tired of principles meaning sweet F.A. in football.

Tell them to shove their £40 million where the sun doesn't shine.
 
If we believe what the media and twitter saying:

Barry on loan
McCarthy 15M rising to 20M
Tom Ince 8M rising to 10M

Add in the first year's wages for each of them and you're looking at more than £36m outlay, leaving less than £10m to pay the sell-on clause and look for one more player. IMHO that would be bad business. If Ince and McCarthy could be secured for a combined £15m - £20m then maybe, but not at the prices you've listed.
 

Not being funny but I'll be disgusted if we pay more then £40 million for these two. Baines we straight up do not need, ridiculous waste of money and Fellaini is about our 14th choice and my personal 34th choice.

Stop being mean and give us them for 35m.

Would their wages not be less than Felli and Baines though?

Seeing as you asked so nicely.
 
£40m is about right in my opinion. If both players do want to leave then we should deal at £40m hard cash nothing less, no add ons (unless they increase the £40m bid).

My worry is how the £40m (if the whole) is going to be spent. If we lose Fellaini and Baines we need just as talented or potentially as talented replacements. For me McCarthy at £15m is an absolute joke he's just been relegated to the championship. He's worth £7m at the very most!

Roberto must have other targets, surely!
 
Its far to late why do EFC just call there bluff and say ok you can have them for 50 million or go away - why has this follow up bid of 30 something taken so long and why does it always come in just before a prem game???? Everton should have scared them off by either just coming out and saying not for sale UNT & LFC did it easily!
