That story is 2 days old, surely if true a better source would have come up with something by now?

I mean im not suggesting we wont sign this fella, I just find it laughable that this fella has the inside scoop, but hey ho, people will believe what they want to believe.

As you know, I know little about actual football, outside L4, (and thats debatable). But are we straying into the area of buying Barca tat?

Who knows...all i know is that we were supposed to have made a take it or leave it offer a week ago and then this chap has piped up.

Some other rumours that were getting Todibo and Napoli getting Gabriel.

Godin linked. 34 but does not depend on pace so may be worth a 2 year deal if decent price and wages and we bring in another young centre back. We need a leader at the back with abit of aggression.

Would certainly rather buy tat from Barca than Palace and Swansea.

I think hes had a poor season at Inter and they just want him off the books.

Hed be caught out in the prem i think...at 34.

I do understand this line of thinking. My question would be how did we manage to spend as much as we did (particularly in the last 2 years). An orthodox reading of the situation going into the last 3 summers was that a more austere approach was needed, yet we spent 100m+, mostly all net each summer.

Quite clearly whoever owns/funds the soending have not been overly concerned about short term profitability when faced with the alternative of not spending. Yes the situation has become worse, but its not fundamentally changed this summer. Everton cannot sustain the spending it makes unless it has cash injections from an external source. The question might be, whybwould this summer be the one the tap is turned off?

Like I say it all depends on two things: 1. where is the money coming from, and 2. how much will be eventually lose from COVID.

I was thinking under the assumption this season (and most European leagues) wouldn't be concluded which is a lot of TV money lost. I just assumed the club would already have set aside £Xm for the Summer but maybe that would need to be cut into to balance COVID impact. If we finish the season maybe we won't lose all that much and it'll be fine.

Yeh possibly its a gamble like but I think a player of his quality who could be a squad player and help holgates, minas and a new CBs progress is a decent risk.

That is fair.

Todofichajes is no more reliable than Don Balon. Its just all made up

Didn't Martinez buy us one of those already.
