Everton Transfer Thread 2016

[Abraders]

If you mean personal wage...fine.

But surely its the case of emperors new clothes....eg selling best players etc?

I just think in honesty all Koeman has to do is make us work hard and put us back in the top 10 and he'd be considered somewhat a success.

Koeman had he stayed at southampton would have had some great expectations on his shoulders on the back of their previous season.

Until being the word here, let's hope it doesn't come about.

I still think we need to be ambitious and not spend our money on [Poor language removed]. Looks what happened with Niasse almost £20 million flushed down the toilet for nothing.

We have to buy quality and maybe we need to be patient to secure it.

I really do have a sinking feeling right now

Quality is subjective.

For example, if Gueye is electric and does a Kante role for us, he'd be far more valuable for our team than Ibrahimovic would have been.

The key is quality in the right areas for the right reasons. That's why I'm not totally against spending a bit on Williams, as I can see the logic. I don't see it with Bolasie though - can't think of one good reason to sign him.

I'm in total agreement.

But personally, i think with the current squad he could do that as is, especially if Martinez could get 12th.

Maybe the top 8 is over egging it but I'm going off the fact we've got a 20 goal a season striker West Ham, RS, Saints, don't.

Again, I'll go back to the RS. Klopp came in and just got that team playing and performed more than what Rodgers would've done in less than a season.

Which is basically saying, "Come back with a higher bid and we'll gift wrap him for you."

Oh dear... can see this happening.

Is Moshiri ever planning to speak to the fans so we've any idea what his plans are?

Why the feck does he have to ?? Which other Prem shareholders or chairmen do you hear making statements about their intentions ?? Exactly !!

 

[Zen_Master]

Every club does.

Exactly

If we don't massively increase thw wage budget this year, then the entire reason we are selling Stones for will be shown up as a smokescreen

Or they left it too late.

Scored what like 20 goals a season in each of his last 3 seasons? Yer mate, massively overrated. Be interested in you showing me any players outside the 'big four' who produce that amount of goals as regular as he does.

You know what, he´s not overrated, I take that back. Inconsistent maybe.

Fair comment and i agree to a degree, in the means that I would definitely expect better from Koeman than from what Martinez had us doing (just down to his tactics and common sense) - however those teams you've mentioned tend to spread goals from everywhere, which actually seems a more successful path than just relying on one big man to do the business - in the long run.

In specific reference to the RS/Klopp though I can't really say anything to that, he quite rightly has got them performing better than Rodgers etc but really he hasn't actually done anything noteworthy for them has he? He's as much a nearly man as Rodgers ever was. And to this day they are signing the level of players we are scoffing at right now, and rightly so from our point of view.

Forgot where I was going with all of this by this point, but it's been a nice little chat haha

The West Ham lot but the last thing i'd want was for him to be like them

This signing would be so Liverpool
