Don't necessarily have to buy 'backup' - Bony would have provided an option to play two up front or, God forbid, someone to challenge Lukaku so he doesn't feel guaranteed a place. Or so if he does his hamstring, the best option isn't Kone or Enner sodding Valencia.

Perhaps Koeman doesn't want to play two upfront. He hasn't yet.

Nobody is trying to wind anyone up, it's an observation I've made. Obviously the esk has got a fan club, so he's probably a decent Evertonian. But you can't deny he's been so wrong this summer.
How is your lot doing in the transfer window?

Anyone painting Sissoko and Valencia as positives are lying to themselves. It's flat out embarrassing. Overpaying for one idiot, and panicking buying another idiot.

It. Is. A. Loan.

None of those media driven fantasy targets have been sold to anyone. It was all rumour. Show me were Everton ever said we were after those players?

Show me where I said they were anything other than Rumors. Also, when has Everton ever said they were after any player? But if you want to get where rumors come from Everton twitter page does link up a "What the Papers Say" everyday. In those articles Mata, Koulibaly, and Witsel were all mentioned.

Run along Stevie

Bit of a grim window

He didn't look unlikely a week ago as Napoli were confident of getting Kalinic. Their deal for Kalinic fell through on Monday.

Totally irrelevant, until the player has signed on the dotted line, you should always have a plan B.

Even with a new regime in charge, the same old failings regarding Everton come back to haunt us...the inability to get transfer deals over the line.

This is possibly true. If the problem was looking for the wrong players, on the other hand, things can change rather quickly.

To add, Koeman has said he wants more to come in - 4 more.

Since then, none have.

Someone, somewhere is failing.

That's what confuses me. If he'd said he was happy with what he had and we didn't sign anyone I'd be happy. Most of us would.

It just worries me that he said he's short in 4 or 5 areas yet he hasn't done anything?

So yes we can trust him but we know he knows he's short of players in certain positions

No mate our fans all know better mate than the manager who we're paying £7mil a year to make decisions about the team honest

Leicester getting Salami I see, I think we could have done worse than have a look at him.

Thanks.

At the end of the day mate were all Everton fans on here, all summer he's chat absolute nonsense. If it's not 100% he shouldn't have passed it on. He's had our lives this summer.

How do you know what he's said all summer. You joined today.

Haha for all the ones who put down anyone thst questioned whether the club had money or not.

We have spent what we sold stones for and now going to add 6 million on top of thst as a total net spend of 6 million.

Wonderful.
