Transfer Rumour Gabriel (Lille)

You don’t get every clued up Everton journalist releasing a story at the same time for them to ALL be wrong.

Once again, you ignoring what’s in front of you to protect Brands.
The pure reason of why would you give someone a medical four months before you were purchasing a player should be enough to realise the story was nonsense. Why would any team agree a fee and hold a medical four months before buying when he could pick up all manner of injuries in the four months leading up to purchase. Agree a fee maybe but hold a medical what would be the point?
 
We had a valuation on the player, lille had a different valuation that we weren't willing to meet and another team was.

By working this way in the transfer market we will miss out on some good players. We won't however end up paying £45m for the likes of sigurdsson, £25m for the likes of bolasie and klaassen, we didn't end up paying £35m for mina or £80m for zaha and the club will be better on the whole for it.

I'm not going to loose my mind on the club walking away from buying a player in a position they aren't prioritising and neither should anyone else.

Although it's fairly obvious that there's posters on this fourm who's sole reason for being seems to be hating the club they claim to love and no amount of common sense with change their rhetoric.
 

They have spent £30m on a centre half when they already have Luiz, Chambers, Holding, Saliba, Sokratis, Mustafi & Pablo Mari.
Looks to me like he was offered by the agent and they didnt really think it through.
Thats alot of money in 1 position
They will sell/loan a few of these cbs...what matters is that they are acting now rather than wait for outgoings...complete opposite to us where we need to offload first before incoming.

Hi just a quick question, I maybe wrong but you ever posted anything remotely even good? Positive? Praise? I love Everton?

Get back to me

Regards matt.
 
I had heard similiar - fee agreed of around £25-30 million with Lille then that softie tried saving a few quid and the rest is as they say history.
Half truths.
Is it not possible that other clubs registered an interest ? Clubs that were more enticing to the player and his agent and who possibly offered better terms or slightly more money to the selling club.
Perhaps our priorities changed and we did not wish to proceed at the original price so we could direct our available resources elsewhere?
There are many possibilities and since we were not privy to the negotiations in any way and have not heard from anyone who was, we are left with guesswork and supposition.
But don’t let the lack of any facts get in the way of your campaign of vilification.
 

Lads, how many times do I have to tell you about arguing with idiots?

They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience
stupid.webp
 
Living in hope, mate, like that. We just do not have the funds to buy him or pay his wages.

We have the funds, just not what we want to pay. But this guy has been banded around by his agent just like Malcolm was last season. It’s not done till he’s holding a football shirt for press photos
