Everton Transfer Thread 2016

I think he will play Witsel as part of a back five as a false sweeper.

Cheeks, to quote Oasis: "you see things, I'll never see" lol

What about a soft false attacking sweeper holding deep number 8, fly half?

 

[BlueToff]

Not too fussed about the willingness to spend money, all about if we actually do.

You can't spend money on a player who doesn't want to be here.

So far we have spent money - more money than we have in a window for a long time, regardless of the Stones sale.

Shadow striker playing the support role in the hole I think mate.

Loads of balls around corners.

The reason why it's important is because it shows the owner is doing his job and investing in the club. Given it's Moshiri's first window is it any surprise it's an even bigger issue than normal.

Putting the money up is the main thing, giving the manager financial maneuverability is important as well. the owner comes into his own when the manager can sign who they want for whatever the fee is (within reason) and can then match the wage demands of the player.

Considering how many financial obligations he has here, are you really expecting Moshiri to go out and spend 100 million of his own money? Name one person without that much disposable income who has ever done that?

So they should take that money and spend it on our plan B.

Not simply go "Sorry lads we tried but that's how the cookie crumbles".

I think we were in for Witsel and then Carvalho and then we bought Gueye just in case you are wondering. That's one transfer. What about the rest of the money?

It's perfectly clear (to use your favourite phrase) that if we now went out and spent £75m on Brett angell, Geoff Nulty and dean windass you'd be happy because then we'd have spent money.

Moronic.

 

[Troubador]

Don't know whats worse on here, people moaning about transfers or people moaning about the moaning people on transfers

chill your bean lads, gonna sign some boss players before the window shuts BELIEVE

Stop moaning about people moaning about people moaning.

And no... I'm not moaning.

 

[bluesb1970]

Bony is a definite no goer. Wage demands are too high.

 

[Moomin]

Stop moaning about people moaning about people moaning.

And no... I'm not moaning.

It's Moanception. A moan within a moan within another moan.

 

[Muggins]

Not even a shred of a link but i'd take Jack Wilshire on loan for a year.

Me too mate. He's not 100% fit I don't think and should not have featured in the Euros, but he's a creative player who's experienced and I cannot believe he's only 24.

 

[chicoazul]

We could possibly use Witsel to trade in for Lamine Kone.

 

[mkrudden]

Me too mate. He's not 100% fit I don't think and should not have featured in the Euros, but he's a creative player who's experienced and I cannot believe he's only 24.

Think he'd be great in tandem with or in place of Barkley at times.
Great minds mate. For 12 months seems a no brainer

 

[bluesb1970]

Me too mate. He's not 100% fit I don't think and should not have featured in the Euros, but he's a creative player who's experienced and I cannot believe he's only 24.

I think we are in for him today.

 

[Ashtonian]

Major prediction for deadline day!!!!!!!!!!!!

This time tomorrow there still won't be any news to go on.

Yeah but we have only bought from what we have sold...
