Not hung up on him, nor do I think he's our saviour. I just like his style of play. It's my opinion.
You obviously have a different opinion of him. That's fine.
Who would you like to see play on our wings?
Didn't mean you per se, it's just I've seen it too much in the last... 8 months.

Good winger, but we overhyped him for ourselves. Much like Kev he just goes hot/cold all the time.

Not gonna do a Zatara and pull some random names out of a hat, to be honest. Also not really seen a lot of international/European footy in the last while because of work and stuff, so I'm gonna skip that question and have belief in whoever Koeman/Walsh find suitable. Provided we get CM's - wingers probably aren't gonna be that much of an issue as well. If the Perisic (were we linked with him?)/Coric links were real - I'd have them here, good players. If we get someone who seems random but can do a good job (or Stanciu) - I'm also okay with that.

Who I'd want obviously would be Griezmann, Isco and the likes, but we've no chance to get them lol
 

Yep hard not to feel outraged that Ronald Koeman doesn't seek the council of a bunch of random folk on a fan forum.

Mate, the whole world knows what we do and don't need. If Koemit cannot see we need creativity in MF and a defender or 3 and a striker and no1 keeper then he is daft.
The point I am trying to make is that SURELY we could have addressed some of those areas before the Spurs game????
 
All managers have players that they have targeted. Koeman is no different. Supposedly he targeted the likes of Carvalho, Mata, Witsel and a couple of other high profile names. It seems that none want to come to the club. There are a couple of alternative theories here. The first is that this was all paper talk and we have not moved for these players or that these players do not want to come. Either way it's time to move on. As I said Koeman should have a list of alternatives but it seems not. If you are prepared to spend £30m+ on players there are plenty of very good alternatives available. You don't give up on a mata or Witsel and spend a couple of million on a Villa player or look at one of the best centre backs in football and your alternative is a Swansea player at the tail end of his career. Something doesn't add up

There is another explanation that you haven't come up with..............Moshiri could well have given the budget to Koeman, and I believe he has, but Koeman wants value for money and he has backed off extortionate demands made by vendor clubs. He has seen the quality of player coming through and will expect some positions to be filled by them. Its interesting to note that the club has not commented on what is purely press/Sky speculation and why should they. It is obvious that if Stones and Lukaku go we will need replacements, the pig press have picked up on this and milked the death out of that scenario, even the prospective buyers have only recently said that offers may be made. It is so easy to make one and one into three without the full facts. Lukaku will go, and I'll be glad to see the back of him after all this press talk, some of which will have emanated from his busy body father. As for Stones, we want £50 mil, end of, that is firmly in Citehs court. The arrival of Pogba at United may well get the purse strings loosened at the Emirates.

Being Evertonians we have a history of blaming the club for everything nine times out of ten mistakenly and I do believe you are totally mistaken.
 

Both Indi and Williams likely in the next 24 hours, which assuming they complete, would confirm Stones to City.


Disappointing to hear about Martins Indi. I can understand Williams and what he brings. Would you say bringing in both would eliminate us for Khoulibaly?
 
I might suggest being a strategist that we are waiting for the ludicrous prices to drop a little towards the end of the window when clubs realise that no-one is buying at those prices... I mean 75M for Lukaku?
