Is it to early to claim we have won the transfer window?



Runs ……

If we get this Philogene in we just might.

 

[Paul Rideout]

Interesting that, apparently, he's actually a midfielder that HV converted into a RB last season. Doesn't seem to have an issue getting up & down that side of the pitch by the sounds of it..

Sounds like a perfect Dyche wide midfielder tbh.

 

[Salt & Pepper Toffee]

Not how footballers think. If their best players didn't play in the same position as him maybe

Of course it's how footballers think. Why would a player worth his salt, want to join a team who's best players are legging it?

Philogene best position is left wing no? Olsie plays right, and Eze plays down the middle.

Another point I'd be using in our pitch over Palace is, their own Owner was willingly happy to sell up there and buy the mighty blues.

Came through the Standard Liege academy as well. Could be worth a punt at c.7m.

Is this not how all big clubs think? I wish we thought like this.

I'm not sure being delusional is the best strategy when you're competing with other clubs who are actually well run.

I can see him picking Palace purely because he's a Southern lad. But from a career point, I'd still like to think Everton have more sway that Crystal Palace.

They're about to sell their two best players, and if they don't get their replacements right, I can see them struggling in the next few seasons.

Everton with a state of the art stadium, the Club size, wages, and hopefully better owners on the horizon, Everton can start competing, where we should be.

He will get guaranteed game time at Palace and play attacking football under Glasner.

I don't think players are that arsed about playing in a new stadium. That said ( sorry @Alan Whittle) Selhurst Park must be the worst PL stadium now that Real Luton have gone back to where they belong.

Can't wait to watch our youth team for a month next time the African Cup is on.

I hear Ashley Young and Andy Lonergan can do a job in the middle of the park if needs be?!?!...

Boggles my mind that some fans honestly think a young, 20-something kids who have a shot at make their way as professional players in the Prem are swayed by what the stadium looks like. They'll be thinking about the money, the status, the playing time, their development and progression path, what their goals are etc. As if some kid is going to be arsed about some middle-aged bloke in a suit banging on about structural architecture and a lovely car park.

 

[Titus Shambles]

Depending on where we are we may as well keep him at that point.

Also from his point of view he will be able to command a higher signing fee and wages if he waits til June

Can't sell a player who doesn't agree to leave. Right now, it appears only Newcastle were interested in him. As a free agent next year, he'll have more options to choose from. Nothing unusual about a player wanting to make best possible use of their situation for the benefit of their own career.

The stadium will impress players i wouldn't say they won't care at all about it but its not going to be the deciding factor of where they choose to move to.

Yeah indeed, its gonna be low down their list.

1. Money
2. Gametime
3. Money
4. Training facilities and selection of cakes in the canteen
5. Money
6. Manager
7. Probably money
8. Nice Stadium to play in every 2 weeks.

Pretty sure I've read somewhere this very week that one of our new youth players has a goal of playing at the new stadium. It is and will be enticing to players.

Come on Twitter, don't dangle that carrot in front of me
