Everton Transfer Thread 2016

I want us to purchase a striker who fits the pressing system that manager is trying to implement which is not Bony. I think we should be trying to spend our big money on goal scoring/creative attacking midfielders. I don't trust Barkley to deliver like we need him to in that advanced midfield role.
Absolutely correct!!
 

Right now mate - it's for me anyway down to wages, we are offering very competitive deals to these players - better than the 'bigger teams' are, which looking in from outside seems impressive, but the reality is they are that far ahead of us in terms of players wanting to go their rather than here, that we aren't offering enough to bridge the gap and make the decision for them so to speak

Koulibaly for example or Witsel, we may be offering 10k a week more than say Cheslea, Juve, Napoli etc, but is that going to be enough to REALLY turn their heads, the commercial and sponsorship/endorsements these guys will make at the 'bugger profile' teams in comparision to what they would get deal wise at us, it probably erases that 10k and more.

To gte a marquee, statement or whatever you wish to call it signing over the line, as City showed with Robinho - requires blowing the competition out the water in terms of the deal and wages offered, right now we aren't doing so, so yeah whilst it sounds impresive we are offering around 120-150k or whatever it is for players - when our top earner is only on 75k in Lukaku, the reality of it is - we are bidding against teams that have those wages as average for first team calibre players and pay significantly more for 'stars'.

We either need to get lucky, drop our ambitions (which would be suicide really) or face the fact we will need to push the boat out a lot further than we planned too
We just need to get one and the rest will follow
 

Can't believe we are actually considering Bony as a replacement for Lukaku.
Lukaku isn't for sale and won't be going to Chelsea. He bangs on about CL in every interview he does in Belguim, there not in the CL and probably won't be next season either. Plus his over vocal father hasn't said a word since the transfer window opened, which u think he would if Rom actually wanted to leave
 
Size means nothing. Said it before on here. Look at Scholes, Iniestas, Xavi etc
Yeah but they didn't look like an actual child.

Giovinco must only weight about 7 stone, he's tiny.


And me and my mates playing 5 a side is of an higher level of football than the mls
