Everton Transfer Thread 2016

[when i score we riot]

What are the chances of that Lamina Kone being a goer? Incredibly uninteresting transfer, that. For £18m. Geez

The utter fume on here when Kone hoofs a long ball up field to Kone because we've sold stones and Lukaku

Probably be the same result as Stones playing a risky through ball to Lukaku with his back to goal and mis controlling it.

Would be happy with Kone and Williams, particularly if the alternative to either is Martins-Indi.

Need to get both done though, and not have another few days of speculation on bids, rejected bids, personal terms, medicals, etc.

If we look at it this way, Stones out for 50m, Kone (15m) Williams (12m) and a top midfielder (20 - 25m) in in return, you can't really argue with that. I sincerely it is merely because it wouldn't have been possible in terms of wages or whatever it was the Esk was talking about, and not because we necessarily need to sell to buy, because that'd just be very sad.

£18m really is naff all these days. James Tomkins went for like £10m+ and he's dreadful.

I like him anyway, was a rock for Sunderland. We could do with some no nonsense defenders like Morgan, Shawcross etc.

Everton have reduced us to being made up with Lamine Kone in a transfer window when we thought we were getting Mata, Witsel and Koulibaly

Exactly if this was a month before the season started then great but looks like same 'ol same 'ol player out replaced by average players.
We are not batting on the same wicket as the top 6 or 7 no matter what anyone says until I see proof.

Dont worry lads. Chief ITK says we will still spend 90m net. Currently -42.9m but I am keeping the faith.

We are nowhere near the top 6, haven't been further from it in 10 years

Was thinking that myself, in today's market we are robbing them, wonder if he has a release clause in his contract?
if not the chairman at Sunderland needs shooting,
if jags went the other way and that fee might make more sense

We're only happy when we're unhappy, which in turn makes us unhappy, which in turn makes us happy and so forth

The Everton cycle

Reality kicking in and all the proof seems to be out there with our transfer targets changing from Witsel, Carvalho, Mata and Koubialy to Williams, Gueye, Kone and Bolasie.

What really amazes me is that people will believe in some almighty being who created heaven and earth and all that - without a single shred of proof of his/her/it's existence. On the other hand, we have Evertonians - who are questioning Moshiri's motives and ambition - mere months into a takeover and radical overhaul of the boardroom and management structure - all this despite binning Martinez and his shower of clowns, bringing in Koeman and his coaching team, bringing in Walsh as DoF, in discussions with Peel over the dock site. Yep, he's done nothing, he's a fraud etc etc etc.......

Koeman - a man well-versed in rebuilding sides with little or no net spend
Walsh - a man comfortable with dealing at the bottom end of the market who has been massively promoted into this new role
Docks - all we've seen and heard is the ramblings of Wobbly Joe, a man who just so happens to be standing (probably aided) for re-election on a regeneration ticket

Think you misunderstood me this is the transfer thread my point was about competing in the transfer market.
I'm sure Moshiri has all the best intentions but reality is we have been talked up and not really able to back it up more to circumstance than want.
