We're always going to need good young players mate
And if we sign a striker, it will be as back up, unless Koeman plans to go full time with two up front, which we both know he won't do
Because better players won't want to come to a club where they have to play second fiddle to Rom before the inks even wet on the contract
We won't play two up top, so we need a striker who will be willing to be back up and is decent enough to do a job, and then we can use the money from Rom's sale in Summer to buy the full time first team ready striker that we CAN'T buy this window
Berahino is young, cheap, proven at PL level when on form and will be hungry to prove himself
I think it's worth the gamble
He wouldn't be our ONLY signing FFS
This is your problem Goat, you don't think about these sort of things. You go into every window wanting 6 boss players, when that's never going to happen. You need a SQUAD, and sometimes that means you don't buy a werld class player for every position
Yes Mikey, good proven young players are very welcome, Loftus cheek is nothing but potential.
Theres a whole world of players that would be happy to come in and play 2nd fiddle to Lukaku for 6months, everybody in football knows that Lukaku is gonna in the summer and just cos its a "back up" striker it doesnt mean we have to buy rubbish.
We have a squad though Mikey, we dont need a frigging squad, we need quality first team players.
I reckon that Michael Johnson could still do a job, it's only been 4 or 5 years since his last conviction
Complete speculation at best. The lad has proven to be a consistent source of trouble for whomever he has played under. We're filling our team with enough fragile egos. Now we need winners, first-teamers and lads who already have their s**t together.
The schism that exists between us here is that you think Saido is pony, whereas I genuinely think he isn't
At his best he's very good, which I think we'll see when he inevitably leaves West Brom
There's a player in there, I'm sure of it
I'm certain that if we sign him in Jan, we will sell him 2-3 years down the line for a profit, unless we want to keep him

Schneiderlin please, maybe Smalling might be on his way too? Blind? Maybe we can take advantage of the Utd January sales? Blind ain't great like but he's capable of doing a very good job in numerous roles. I'd certainly have him, as I would Smalling.

He would make a fantastic keeper for us, I second thisI'd rather have E. Honda than Keisuke Honda.
His time is long past.

Member when Everton had a strong and stingy defense... I member.
In all honesty I feel the same way I felt in the summer when we brought in Koeman and Walsh, and Moshiri was rumored to be opening his wallet. I was excited and ready for this "new" Everton and ready for this team to be a force. Then I was disappointed much like most of you were with how we handled that summer window. I am getting those happy feelings again and hoping we sign a lot of these people we are rumoring and hoping for. However, I ask myself who would want to come to this side who is going to want to come to this 9th place team who has won 1 in their last 11. I am hoping for the best but preparing for another Niasse signing and possibly another bid at Sissoko.
I have a feeling I will need another hug after this window.

I dont think hes pony, theres a good player somewhere, just dont want his baggage at the club Mikey.
The baggage he brings > the talent he has for me.

Because of this I would rather we go big on a striker (difficult, I know, in January) and start to phase out Rom. Screw him, he hasn't been shy about courting literally every other big club in Europe, we shouldn't feel obliged to play him while we integrate his replacement.
