Everton Transfer Thread 2016

[Zatara]

he wont go for anywhere near 30m, no matter how highly rated he is by anderlecht, i can promise you that.

Lukaku was one of the best rated young strikers going when he was bought, and he was bought for a initial 8m down payment by chelsea.

Lukaku may have been £8mil down but was more like £18mil over his contract i though?

Tielemans would be about the same and transfer values have increased...

Even if we did go for him then the Juve link wouldnt surprise me as hed be an ideal replacement for Pogba if he reached his potential.

Going to be some player and i'd have him over almost anyone else in CM -- him or Bernardo Silva would be amazing.

Yarmolenko better fit in our team on the left BUT Tielemans with Barkley,McCarthy,Besic/Cleverley as long term centre mids would be class.

Praet also a good player but not on tielemans level, good playmaker but a bit of a "showy" player....they have another centre mid whose just come through whose also pretty underated behind these two.

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?

You mean the story linking us to an 18 year old CM with a supposed buy out of 30m wasnt true?

Im shocked, shocked I tell ya.

He's to me what Besic is to you.

 

[Goat]

He's to me what Besic is to you.

Let him go Zat, let him go.

He sounds like he will be your Moutinho.

Getting linked to clough at Bolton , on newsnow

@MoutsGoat well we need a GK and a LW in first then a CF and finally a CM so i dont think its likely...though if hes the only player available now at the level we want then its an amazing signing really.

However also linking us to Praet seems a bit odd, looking long term we have:

DM - McCarthy
CM - Besic / Cleverley
AM -- Barkley /Tarashaj

Tielemans can play in any position there so would be ideal....Praet is a playmaker and i couldnt see him being first choice in any position so doesnt make as much sense.

Lets see.

 

[Goat]

No Zat, not lets see, I can assure you 10000000% it wont happen.

Bolton are stuffed financially at the moment so could get him on the cheap but seems a bit of a pointless signing.

Don't you think Praet could play the way Pienaar does (more correctly "did")?

 

[mrs d' indica]

Seen us linked to that Charlton youngster whose name I can't remember. Lookman? Is that it? Can't remember.

Anyway, seen him play twice and he was boss. Well boss for that level and for Charlton.

I'm sure @mrs d' indica can tell us more.

Hi Ijjy,
Yes Ademola Lookman,not had a lot of games but scored a few times. Did really well at academy level, but you know!?

 

[Neiziro]

He's brilliant. Can play DM CM and AM really top notch technically and can run all day + not afraid of a tackle.

i saw @LinekersLegs mention 20mil euro and the link from someone else quoting 30mil euro rising to 45mil in the summer....i would expect more like £30mil. But if we had the Yarmolenko cash and Naismith money we wouldnt be far off...who knows?

Ive said i wanted him in summer and just before this window opened...really would be major coup.

So he's basically the Belgian Besic?

He's a bit of a "roaming" playmaker in that he drifts out wide left/right as well...so probably.

But then we may as well play Cleverley there + i'd much rather a Yarmolenko type signed so theres different options.

If we signed Praet we'd have a "good" playmaker. But if we signed Tielemans we'd have someone to match the quality of Lukaku,Stones,Barkley,Deulofeu etc...i think we either aim for the best or we sign players with potential to reach the top...Praet isnt at that level.

Fair nuff. Seen him very little but think he could be more effective in attack than Cleverley in that area and allows Baines to overlap more than a Yarmolenko type if he plays left. I'd honestly like to see Del on the left and Yarm on the right (provided we have any chance of getting him).

Nothing like Besic really. He's extremely composed and has a short passing range like Pienaar but is a tall and elegant player whose gone from ultra skinny to having a bit of strength on him now and drives forward with the ball then plays in the wingers/attackers. Whereas Besic is like a one man army Tielemans would really compliment him i think...

Ticks all the boxes for a CM and can play in all the central positions...so adds quaility to 3 positions straight away.

Think Yarmo and Del can just swap over during games anyway...

I'd prefer they didn't do that that much especially with how far up our fbs fly I think we'd be caught on the counter too much.
