Everton Transfer Thread 2016

[anton66]

Has Esk said which 4 players will be coming in this week.

That would make sense in the Yorkshire dialect thread.

I'd be stunned if we sold Lukaku for anything less than £75m. It would have to be a truly stupid bid like that for us to entertain the impact it'd have on our status in the game and on the fans.

Although as a fan, if we got £75m for Lukaku, I'd be absolutely delighted... I don't think many join me in that view, especially if we haven't brought in his replacement before we sell him.

I wouldn't.
I think we've been taught a hard lesson this summer regarding how tough it is to buy quality even if you do have the money.
There's a reason why Chelsea would be willing to part with 75 mil for him. It's because a 20+ goalscorer is extremely hard to come by and invaluable if you want to win things.

£75m is a hell of a lot of cash.

But we are seemingly crap at spending actual cash so it seems pointless to sell.

I like Williams a lot. Don't care how old he is, he could easily give us 3-4 great years and for me that's good enough.

He's always class against us and overall a great defender. Could be our new Distin, but better.

Who are we going to attract if we sell our best two players. Doesn't matter if we have 125m in the bank, if players of similar quality won't come here. Lukaku must be kept.

That's the issue yeah.

If we could bring in a 10-15 goal striker who's overall game better fits our set up, and that means he is involved in getting 15 more goals from the rest of the attacking unit, then I'd be happy with cashing in on Lukaku, who offers next to nothing other than goals.

As said though, I'd have to see such a player brought in before we sold Lukaku, as it'd be pure panic stations if we didn't IMO.

Lots of Prem teams seem to be finding it difficult to buy quality.
I think the pressure is going to be too much and if you pardon the expression there will be an orgy of transfers once the Pogba type deals go through.

[Goodison Groaner]

I think of the above 6 and then we need a keeper and attacker

We've had better transfer windows when we had no money!
