Transfer Rumour Gylfi Sigurdsson

[rochdaleblue]

Not that I like agreeing with Pat Nevin, but this is pretty much what me and @MorgsGoat are saying.

If Gylfi proves the difference between top four or not, then he's worth it.

But basically, he's worth whatever we're willing to pay.

If that's £30m, sound, he's probably not gonna come here and we'll get somebody else.

If we're willing to go above £40m, then we'll probably see him in an Everton shirt come September (or earlier).

The RS have just spent 39m for a player who had previously flopped in the premier league. Siguardsson has shown his quality, season in season out...but I'm sorry not for 50m.

Everton fans put too much credit on Barkley. He's so inconsistent.

Gilfi is a miles better player and far more effective.

Get him in and ship barkley off to Newcastle who are stupid enough to take him.

He'll disappear into obscurity.

 

[Neiler]

He wont go for 50 mill they are high balling us.

 

[MACCA75]

Which means Barkley and his agent told Koeman to do one with his deadline. That's all it means.

You are making the jump to saying he wants to leave. You don't know that. I don't know that. The only people who do are Barkley and his agent and possibly the club.

He signed his last contract in late July in exactly the same circumstances.

All true - but the fact we are clearly interested in Gylfi very much suggests that the club don't expect Ross to sign a contract. IMO.

They don't seem to want him to go at all!....
However...for a club that hasn't any big money backers and only just avoided the drop (Hull were woeful!) they need to bring in players ...probably from Europe!
For that .. they need money...£32 Million ??
No way will anybody pay £50,000,000.
It's up to Gylfi to press for a move ....That's if he wants to achieve anything other than another relegation scrap again!

Comparing Beckham to Siggy?? Wow!!

Beckham was a brand as much as a player. Give me Trevor Steven any day.

 

[vintage-toffees]

There 50m similar will be similar to our 100m for lukaku

Cash addons or maybe even a McCarthy or similar fringe player bumping deal up

 

[Clive Warren]

Swerve

He's not worth £30 Million, there's plenty more players who are good at set pieces, like Ward-Prowse for example.....

 

[TheFinnFan]

This will obviously take a while but it will be completed. Id say the fee is £42,69m

Yet Barkley has top clubs looking at him. Sigurdsson had his day, flopped, now us and the mighty Leicester for £50mill

Yet Barkley has top clubs looking at him.

He really, really doesn't.

Cash add ons or maybe even a McCarthy or similar fringe player bumping deal up

McCarthy added in to the deal as part of the price? ...Mabey!
However Man Utd bought Rom for 75 mil + for the almost guaranteed goal he will score.

But I'm sure a lot feel that he's not the final piece of the jigsaw that can get champions league football. Which is why anything above £30mill is silly.

 

[kenada_blue]

He really, really doesn't.

I'm pretty sure we're both guessing here.
