Everton Transfer Thread 2016

[mutley]

I can see Stones going, Lukaku staying and 5 signings before the window closes, net spend 60 million.

would we be happy with that ?

 

[tadao]

yeah but that's like tens of thousands of minutes so loads of time calm down lad yer heads falling off

 

[meagher94]

Is Duncan Castles reliable?

 

[Librarian]

Szczesny on loan?

Maybe we should have a Pole

If sucking Jose Mourinho off is classed as reliable then he's spot on, otherwise the baldy little oddball hasn't got a clue.

...I'll leave goalies to the experts but I've always though Szczesny has everything a top goalie needs. Remember that they tend to mature with age and he might have something to prove. I'm in.

I remember we said similar of Richard Wright when he came to us. I also wouldn't quite agree Szczesny has everything a "top goalie" needs: from what I've seen he lacks two things, tho' these things can be improved upon:

- box-organisation of his defenders (not very vocal)
- concentration (he's a good reflexive shot-stopper but can be prone to howlers if the game's been quiet a long time)


Better than Howard and Joel? Yeah, I'd deffo give him that, as long as he can approach his best form and be consistent.

The only worry i had was it looks like we have a decent start to the season after the first game, a time to pick up points with new players bedded in,
i hope we are not playing catch up against the stronger teams when the window closes.

I've been saying similar for ages, as has @Tubey - it's a point which is oddly not getting a lot of airtime, especially with our record of slow starts to a season.

lol lol lol lol he is a Mourinho mouthpiece, ignore the weirdo.

 

[dholliday]

I think he might want to weigh up his options in case Lukaku and in the likelihood Stones is leaving.

not really a winner's mentality that, is it?

Let's wait and see what our rivals do, maybe they'll buy our best players, then we'll know how to act.

Seriously though, a crap journo writing for a Scottish paper has info on an Everton bid for a Portuguese player.


Behave yourselves lads, you're making a show of us,

Whats with the old John Travolta pictures in the sponsor banner?

 

[EFC85]

Would rather have Fonte or Williams before Martins-Indi. De Vrij instead please Ronald.

Yep, look at Leicester and the hammers last season, us when we finished fourth, it's imperative we get off to a fast start and we're not playing catch up football, even Chelsea who won it the year before couldn't do it.

Going to cry if we sign Martins-Indi.
