Onyekuru

Bowler

Gibson

Markelo

Gueye

Calvert Lewin

Sssshhhhh now.

I'm giving DCL to Unsy, who knew him from his time at Sheffield United and persuaded the board (?) to back him , I think before Walsh joined . But happy to replace him with Sandro as one Walsh had involvement in.

but i thought we had to sell ross first before we could buy him?

Completely agree, Schneiderlin has been very ponderous on the ball so far this season, but very early doors.

Getting the right striker and defender will be crucial now but we will get it right.

its one game in lads not counting EL
Give the lad a break will you

 

[Brisan123]

To be fair its clear for all to see we have offloaded Barry to cater Siggys wages.

My guess is we have dipped our toes into the China overdraft until we sell Barkley.

So somebody is going to give us 45 m for an injured ROSS Barkley

Rom did not want to play for Everton
Rom did not want to play with Rooney
Rom did not want to play with Siggy
Rom did not want to play with anybody in an Everton jersey
The sooner people accept these facts the better.
The same applies to ROSS

its a simple argument its not to difficult to understand, yet i dont think of itin those black and white terms, its the systemic effect it has.

I disagree fundamentally mate. Not with those players wanting to leave, i get that, but selling and selling to our closest rivals, its a poor mentality that is an obstacle for progress.

Just to clarify: That's Everton Manager Ronald Koeman, the individual that sits with the Board in pre-season and discusses targets and budgets, that has got it wrong.

We had no option but to sell
No one outside the PL wanted him and only those above us could afford him
Not a lot the board could do

1 success out of 6. Good job Steve.

And if we sold Gueye we would be 20-30 mil better off you really suck at wumming

It's on my phone. Soz abar the selfie!

You're a small child that uploads pictures of themselves wetting the bed?

Should we call the police? Or perhaps the real law @the sniderman

 

[Tubey]

We got what is essentially an overdraft last month from a bank (Chinese iirc?)

The proof is how we are when the window closes, where we'll see whether we had to settle the bill or not.

Oh dear, this thread went quickly Yewtree.

That is a lot of assumptions mate, again black and white thinking. There is always an option. I accpet the premise and rationalle for what happened, i just dont agree it.

Look, if United finish 3 points ahead of us in fourth and us in fifth and Rom scores 25+ goals for them then we have systemically improved them by our own decision making.

That is not acceptable if you ambition in the league and want to progress.

The fact that people are so passive and understanding of it, is part of the problem, its a mentality.
