Everton Transfer Thread 2016

A lot of panicking on here

The team will evolve and will take some time before we will have a team that is challenging for top honours (we weren't far off with 2 semi-finals despite a complete cockwomble as manager).

So we have managed to nab the 1st choice manager from a very reluctant Saints and taken the DoF off the champions so lets give the whole thing some time ( I don't mean 6 weeks either) rather than losing it after one transfer window that is not even over.

As the team will improve under Ronald we will get the quality signings we need as we know the money is there ( those who dispute that really !?!?) as for me the most important signing would be get the quality stadium were desperate for.

Lets face it we are in a much stronger position than we were when the last season finished so a lot to be positive about and I think it WILL get better just not as quickly as some would like.

Just my thoughts anyway.

Me too. I wouldn't mind at all if the club said we are a bit strapped for cash while we sort out and build the new stadium. That's what is important in the long-term. Unfortunately, the club's non-existent PR has resulted in a deathly silence which is being filled with doom-mongers and panic merchants.
A few positive statements from the club would have calmed people down in the current absence of new signings (temporary, I hope!). Get it sorted Everton!
 
The delusion from Evertonians is laughable. A huge majority of you need to give your heads a wobble - we do not have a £100m war chest, we are not rich - Moshiri isn't even anywhere near the richest investors in the PL. We will not sign players of the calibre of Mata/Witsel etc. This squad is NOT good enough. Lukaku poor, Stones poor, Barkley average, McCarthy utter turd etc. inconsistency all around...it needs an entire restructuring which we simply cannot complete. Why haven't we spent any money? That's because we don't bloody have it. Where did this £100m figure come from? The Mirror?

Here's to another poor season.

Friendlies are just glorified training exercises. You could win them all 10 - 0 and they will count for nothing come the season start.

They are indicators though of whereabouts a squad is in terms of fitness and confidence. We look woefully underprepared for a competitive game of Premier League football next week, just like every start of year for the past 3 seasons.
 

By whom?

Yourself? For setting obscure expectations in your own heads that may or may not be met.

The window shuts on September 1st. Rightly or wrongly, it doesn't shut the day before the season starts.

Obscure expectations? No mate, they weren´t obscure, they were very reasonable. How about getting in a number one keeper before the end of pre season?
