..a report that Everton are looking to tie up the £35m transfer of Zenit winger, Emiliano Rigoni (@bluestevon ?). The Argentinian has apparently got a buy-out clause in his contract and the deal could be based on the player joining Everton in the summer.

Apparently in for Zenit winger Emiliano Rigoni an Argentinian right winger.

So we have sold Barkley to Chelsea ASAP during the window before actually bringing anyone else in. It's like the summer repeated when we sold lukaku asap. Why is the club using its staff time and energy to sell players before bringing new ones in? I can just imagine Walsh spending the last few weeks finalising the Chelsea deal instead of sorting out players we need to buy.

Zenit bought him last summer for about 8m euros mate, honestly looks good but nothing that gets me falling out my chair about, certainly not worth anything like a 4 times markup from what i've seen of him, think the way Vlasic looks for us, but he's 24 in a poorer league by far.

Not even in the top 2 Argentinians at Zenit IMO

..strange link. Good age and size about him but the clips don’t indicate he’s better than the Brazilian winger that Watford picked up.

Richarlison? IMO a much much higher ceiling on the Watford lad, don't get me wrong, this lad a good player, but don't think he's of the quality that we should be after him in reality mate - certainly not for anything like 20m+

...I doubt it, Walsh has been rumoured for some time.

3 professionals off the books today. Probably £16m-£17m incoming.

snake or not, barkley was one of our best(or least worst) players and ever since moshiri has come in, our best talent has left and we are worse off than before. Only everton can have a ton of money ruin it rather than make it successful or at least improve the team. the mosh has some explaining to do

Because we are operating on a budget.

We don't have a ton of money.
