Zat no one is paying big money for those players because they are on big wages
If Siggy or Gomes were on 40-50k a week there would be takers
So we cant sell them as there will be no buyers
You can quote all the figures you want but selling all those players will not be a realistic option
Look at Bolassie Besic ,Tosun ,Walcott ,no one wants them because of their wages

This is the nub of the issue. High wages prevent sales.

Anyway, as pointed out previously, I’m pretty sure some of them will have their contracts extended because it’s far more expensive to replace them, and like it or not, we have the money for about three signings per season, so some will have to stay.

But lads on here think its FIFA and we can sell who we want and buy who we want
Weather we like it or not Davies ,Siggy ,Gomes will be around our squad for a few seasons yet and all the ambition and piss and wind talk about ambition will not change that once FPP is still around in some form and we have a stadium to build

Its senisble as well, wholesale changes very rarely work. Can see us signing a rightback and another forward now or in the summer. Maybe one more midfielder and a backup leftback... but all is based on Bernard, Tosun, Besic, Bolasie and Kenny leaving on whether it is now or later. Sigurdsson as well in June. But we are have improved loads in the 13 months since Ancelotti came and can only see that continuing... even getting Gomes back to his best like we have seen with Iwobi, Keane and Mina.

Besic is on 30k and Tosun 65 k
Who will pay those wages
Thats why we cant sell them
So quoting all the figures like 5m for Tosun is pointless because no one will pay the wages
Gomes 112k
Siggy 100k
Mina 120k
Bernard 120 k
Delph 80k
Who will pay those wages .no one hence we cant sell them so we have to keep them in the squad

2024-25 Everton F.C. Payroll Table

An updated look at the Everton F.C. 2024-25 payroll table, including team totals, retained figures, and complete breakdowns of player salaries, and bonuses.

www.spotrac.com

These are the players I listed that we should be trying to sell urgently...there are 15 of them.

The number next to them is the year their contract expires

Bolasie 21
Besic 21
Connolly 21
Bowler 21
Sigurdsson 22
Bernard 22
Tosun 22
Delph 22
Coleman 22
Kenny 22
Lossl 22
Baningime 22
Gibson 22
Davies 23
Gomes 24


Summer 2021 = 4 players out of contract
Summer 2022 = 9 players out of contract

Add in Davies, Gomes and Kean (as seems likely).

we are left with this:

GK: Pickford / Olsen / Virginia
RB:
CB: Mina / Godfrey / Keane
CB: Branthwaite / Holgate
LB: Digne / Nkounkou
CM: Doucoure / Allan / Gbamin
LF: Richarlison / Gordon
CF: DCL
RF: James / Iwobi



Players needed (Olsen i assume we sign)

2 × RB
3 × CM
1 × CF

16 players out and 6 players in.

Huge amount of wages and circa £100mil to play with to bring in 6 players before dipping into Moshiris pockets

Why not? You're clearly a contributor. There's a window currently. We can potentially add or cut the squad. Makes sense to have this thread!

You love a long post. Props.

The Athletic have us City and Arsenal interest in Tariq Lamptey this morning. He has looked excellent for me this season but would cost a large fee as he has just signed a new long term contract.

 

[blue to the bone]

Big lad, if true.

Jurgen was his dealer

'Ambition' seems to be a stick to beat everything with nowadays.

Is Ancelotti, James and Allan not ambitious ?

And on where blind ambition goes wrong - Bolasie, Gylfi and Klaasen were expensive and ambitious signings.

How about some sense to go with that ambition.

Yes please!!

Zat who will buy the players highlighted in bold and pay them their current wages
Davies and Coleman will not be sold
Out of the rest we would get maybe 10m for Kenny ,pennies for the rest
All this FIFA stuff is great but real life is different
What six first team squad players will you get for 100m for a side looking for top 4

 

[ToffeeTim]

I'm not sure he's actually that good. Not a great defender from what I've seen.

I'm not sure he's actually that good. Not a great defender from what I've seen.

He's the second worst defensive RB in the league behind Bellerin I think.

 

[blueblueskies]

He's the second worst defensive RB in the league behind Bellerin I think.

Looks great when playing as a wing back in a 5 but as a right back would have concerns about him defensively but that will probably improve as he gets more experience.

After reading this thread back the last couple of days, I’ve realised some fans are away with the fairies. Wanting to replace every member of the squad whose not in the starting 11, at the click of a finger. Don’t think they understand the concept of a squad etc.

Apparently his wages were doubled to £40k a week.

Will be a big fee but his wages wont be insane. Something Moshiri mentioned as being a target a year or so ago.
