Everton Transfer Thread 2016

[Duncan Disorderley]

who you talking about mate? Jo scored 1 in 24 for city and the other geezer plays for a French club.

edit sorry mate you mean Balotelli yeah? Played for City about 4 years ago and scored 3 goals for Milan this season so I'm assuming your record is going by his goalscoring record from before he went to the RS?

Yes, like I said in the post, last 2 seasons have been rubbish

 

[Efcpablo]

20 goals in 54 app with City
26 goals in 43 app with Milan

Last 2 seasons utter dog [Poor language removed] but he is only 25

How many penalties?

 

[maccavennie]

Yes, like I said in the post, last 2 seasons have been rubbish

sorry mate understand what you were saying. imo he's finished mate, 25 and a wasted career. Wouldn't touch him, ain't got the hunger and desire to be a top player and has had chance after chance to prove it.

 

[chicoazul]

I know he is RS but I'd like to see Balotelli join us, maybe on a pay as you play contract, think he has massive potential but is obviously a complete bell end!!

Yes he might cause disruption but surely that could form part of his contract, p**s around and your contract is terminated, when he has his mind focused he is a clinical finisher and with Koemans obviously hot on fitness I could see him being a very good buy if we got him on our terms.

No mate.

@Ashtonian @Zatara

The thing is lads if we sell Stones then I have no issues with us chunking most if not all of our budget on 2 CB's and a keeper if they're good. Reason being we showed last season that even with an average manager tactically we had - for the most part - absolutely no issue scoring goals. If we can sort fitness and consistency we have enough in Lukaku, Barkley, Geri and Kev to do damage. What we didn't do well was defend. Soooo speaking very, very hypothetically if we spend all our money and Koeman trains them right we can start ironing out the stupid goals we were conceding. We scored the joint 7th highest goals with Chelsea and that was with some horrendous barren runs from our players.

Same attackers + miles better defenders = higher up the league.

Agreed. If we got Leno Koulibaly and Manolas then id be quite happy just with that but at minimum we would still need one or two more and to move on deadwood.

I mean kone and niasse cant be ojr backup for lukaku.

 

[Zatara]

So in pre Moshiri/TV deal money Koubilaly is about 20 and Rugani about 8 mil?

They play in italy so no. Id say koulibaly £40mil and rugani £25mil.

 

[Zatara]

Yeah, like @Zatara only rates footballers under 22, which raises certain questions which may or may not be appropriate. Mr Pen is simply smiling with footballers of all ages, so no real reason to suggest anything untoward.

Despite me wanting 4 players over 25 ?

These insinuations arent funny and you just clog up the thread.

 

[Zatara]

I am not giving his position away on here. I am already paranoid about my friend reading this.

Look lads, I am passing on information from a VERY good source. It's all I can say. The bloke has worked at Carrington for 3 different managers and gets told EVERYTHING. Mata is staying. Fellaini is 50/50. Pogba is done as long as Juventus land Higuain and some other expensive player. (Juve already splashing the Pogba money, this news will be out by tomorrow mark my words.)

Guy tells us everything we want to know. Mata is off, finito. If you don't believe me I couldn't care less.

But don't go crazy when Mata is sitting on the bench in a Man Utd kit at Bournemouth in 4 weeks time.

Just wanted to applaud you on the use of:

couldn't care less

So many people writing "could care less" which doesnt make one iota of sense.

Are you suggesting that the best man manager ever, broke The Bal? According to my sources he's desperate to move to Celtic to continue his football education.

 

[CairnsToffee]

I've heard there'll be an announcement tomorrow

Heard there is final talks, a medical but the signing of the contract is off as the creepy contract guy is in Austria without his favorite pen

 

[CairnsToffee]

Says who mate?

@The Esk - Believe Mata is going on the ManUre preseason tour, away for two weeks?, will we have to wait further or is this why Wijnaldum has come into the frame?

I Personally think if he goes on the tour its unlikely hes signing, unlikely not impossible, which means he would have to sign before Tuesday.

So many people writing "could care less" which doesnt make one iota of sense.

When you want to colloquially express that you don’t care at all about something you might say “I couldn’t care less.” This phrase first popped up in British English at the turn of the 20th century and is still popular today. In the 1960s, a controversial American variant of this phase entered popular usage: “I could care less.” Many native English speakers, both in the UK and US, find this expression to be logically flawed. If you couldn’t care less, then you care so little about something that it would be impossible for you to care any less than you do. If you could care less, however, you are saying, literally, that it is possible for you to care less than you care now. Those who take issue with this believe this later variant says very little about your level of caring, and so eschew it.

Not seen that you rated any
older players (if these count as older) but it's
not like I could care any less or
couldn't care less. Just a joke mate and everyone else gets it I think.

Today's the day........or maybe Monday or 48 hours later or after the holidays or until we sell Stones.........
