Everton Transfer Thread 2016

From Koulibaly to Williams , pass me the bleach homies !

How do you know we won't get both?

 

[Zen_Master]

Williams is our next Distin.

How do you know we won't get both?

If we got both that would mean Williams is on the bench , would he come here knowing he wouldn't be first choice , would it be wise to spend 10m on a 32 yrs old squad player ?

If he had a foreign name and played for a foreign club then people would be all for this. He's a no-nonsense, old-school defender because he wins headers, blocks shots and gets stuck into attackers. He's also a leader on the pitch and we're sorely lacking in them right now.

Underrated player in an underrated team, £10m is steep but that's the prices you have to pay for squad players nowadays. Fine buy for me.

Williams is a decent player, shame he's about to turn 32.

Why would he be on the bench?

 

[blue to the bone]

Williams has been one of the best defenders in the premier league last few seasons..
His biggest plus point is he loves to defend.
The distin comparison is a great shout .
Don't mind his age .

If we get both I think Funes Mori drops to the bench (with Jags if he isnt sold).

Also a leader on the pitch as well that we're sorely lacking. Underrated player in an underrated team, £10m is steep but that's the prices you have to pay for squad players nowadays.

The problem is he turns 32 soon and we are hardly going to attract big names and look ambitions by signing Williams , I less it's a coy to lure Bale !

 

[The Mighty Quint]

That price is surprising, why would they accept that, they don't need the money now ?

How longs left on his contract?, that may be why he's cheaper than he should be.

He's a rock solid defender who leads a team from the back, a great signing to sure up the defence for a season, if we get 3 out of him it's all gravy, and he'll easy be a top draw defender for the next 3 seasons in the Prem, no brainer.

We'll pay him more than Swansea.

As it stands a massive improvement over Stones in our defence if it happens, fact, Stones is a work in progress that may well become a world class centre back, but Williams will improve our defence in the short term, and he's a leader of men to boot.

Never going to happen but stones and Williams would be a terrific partnership. Williams would organise him and the remainder of the defence, alas it won't happen.

That price is surprising, why would they accept that, they don't need the money now ?

Ayew is off to West Ham too for around £20mill. There are a few articles from worried Swans fans on their forum questioning the new owners and a thread on asset stripping. Maybe all the owners see is £10mill for a 32 year old and think its too good to refuse without considering his worth to that team.

 

[diggerdestroyer]

Williams. I like him. Missing a no nonsense defender. Experienced. One of the better defenders in the league. Always looks like a leader. Would be happy with him

 

[EFC85]

Dont believe the Lukaku story off that awful paper and dont believe the Williams story either.

Not even worth discussing but a very good player.
