Considering just how often you are wrong I reckon you should spend more time putting some belief into rumours. Literally never met someone on here admit they were wrong so often:
Everton January 2022 Transfer Thread
Always had the sneaking suspicion with Dele Alli that a good deal of his form and confidence was propped up by the magic of Christian Eriksen. Maybe a gamble to consider if the price is right but from Levy that isn't going to happen - swerve.

Don’t forget Keane who is the worst out of all of them and was at fault for all the goals. Keane cannot play in any formation that features 3 CBs. He's proved this a hundred times over.

Anyway back on topic. I’m still fully expecting a busy few weeks for us before the window shuts. Would be very surprised if we don’t end the window with a new starting RB, winger and a CM. So right now I’m still positive.
You just said in your above post Newcastle were in for Digne mate, therefore the same context that applies to Wood applies to Digne. Its also indictive of "market price" if an aged journey man striker scraping for relegation most seasons is worth 25 mill in the market - then a younger French International former Roma , PSG, Barca player with experience of CL etc - is worth more - i don't think that's a huge jump in logic to be honest, especially in the January limited availability market - "market forces".
To be honest i think people are trying to convince themselves this is a good or fair deal because - they are stressed and worried about us being skint and its hard to hold the anxiety of knowing we need to balance the book - just because we need money, doesn't mean we have to accept bad deals or call them out when they are. Thats the psychology pawn brokers work on.

….there’s clearly been problems in the acquisition of players. I fear the arrival of Benitez and departure of Brands has not brought them to an end.
Good post mate.
I think as long as DCL stays injury free from here on in, his value will remain very high. I'd be delighted to get another season from him after this one.
I'd agree if I ever saw it.

He just emphasised the number ten situation, I wonder if we’ll address it this window

And was is it that you are hoping they say exactly? The reason I gave the Conte example is because he believed he had legitimate grievance against his employers and took them to that mat for it. If the rumours about Moshiri are true and he has sabotaged the jobs of Everton Directors of Football through his own recklessness and then forced those same Directors to leave the club as collateral damage for mistakes that he has made, perhaps the likes of Brands could explore those same avenues too?
Sadly, I believe that Brands has already unloaded all of his ammunition in that Echo piece that he clearly sourced, given that the information only came to light the day after he left. The fact that that story has failed to gain traction elsewhere in the media is perhaps indicative that not everyone is buying those 'revelations' either.
We're in a very difficult position. The problem is most of the people that Moshiri has chased out of here are incompetent idiots themselves, so we are in a situation whereby what could be considered damaging testimony from former employees against Moshiri would be considered little more than damage limitation by individuals whose reputations are deservedly in tatters.
Moshiri is so clueless though. The damage he has done here is bordering on irreparable.
Yes, it’s a shame about Dobbin, I think he’s decided that there’s nothing down for him here,, he’s probably right as well, I don’t think he’ll extend his contract, he’ll leave us on a free at the end of the season and go on to have a decent career elsewhere in all likelihood.
I suppose we’ll be entitled to a compensation payment, due to us developing him. Signing players like El Ghazi on loan must send out the wrong signals to the likes of Dobbin, who could well have been given the minutes on the pitch that El Ghazi gets.
Nothing, it’s not me making that claim

But nobody thinks that Wood was worth that, including the people who paid it for him. It was done with the not-so-subtle intention of damaging their biggest rivals for survival, and if you have seen the reports around that apparently Dyche is going apoplectic at the deal then it appears to have worked. If Newcastle survive this season at Burnley's expense then their devious little plan will pay back ten-fold. You can't hold that deal parallel to others and claim it is indicative to the market because it isn't.
At the end of the day somebody is only worth what someone else is prepared to pay. No club dramatically better than Everton wanted Digne permanently, so the types of clubs that were lining up for him weren't particularly enticing which will affect the players price somewhat, as clubs who do not have Champions League ambitions (which Villa don't in the short term) are unlikely to pay the kind of money that bona-fide CL sides pay out, especially on a left back no less (Transfermarkt apparently claim it is the sixth highest fee ever paid out for a left back, which doesn't seem so bad).
People didn't bid a supposedly low price because they knew he was being pushed out of the club? Well that makes no sense.
