January Transfer Thread 2017

Plenty of time mate. You're a sensible poster, don't get sucked in.

Lookman will be done this week.

Snides may drag on, but I think will be done (either way) in the next 7-10 days.

Del will be off at some point. Tis a shame.

Perhaps poorly phrased. Am not in any way upset or concerned, merely curious.

I would cry blood if we signed Troy Deeney.

Like a religious miracle happening?

Don't think Deeney isn't that good like, better than niasse.....

Deeney wouldn't at all be a bad folly for Lukaku, but no, won't happen.

He's absolutely ridiculously tall too if that helps.

With the Nzonzi shouts - I'd be wary. He's top class in Spain but was only ever decent over here for Stoke. Nothing wrong with that but some players just suit certain leagues perfectly and vice versa. He'd probably be pretty wary about it too tbh. I don't see anything in it.

I agree ... Diego forlan .. falcao ( I know he had a knee injury before he came over )

Per Krøldrup is currently available on a free.


Sign him up Ronnie

Playstyle in Spain suits him miles more but I wouldn't let that deter us if there was ever a chance to get him.

 

[We'veGotTonyHibbert!]

Gueye wasnt a stand out last year and look at him now! Nzonzi has been great in Spain, but hes 28 now and i reckon we could get better

Gueye was Villas stand out player mate. His stats for his position were only 2nd to Kante in the league with a relegated Villa

and he was actually better than Kante in some areas.

Wasn't Haller apparently at the Hull game or was that BS? He looks interesting, though hard to be over confident on players from the Dutch league.

For every Suarez there are 3 Alfonso Alves types!

...just checked with my son who has much better eyesight than me, he says Haller was definitely not with the Everton contingent in the Directors Box at Hull.

yeah but did you want him or know anything about him at all last season? he wasnt a stand out player in the league and wasnt getting raved over at aston villa either

....it's not the lad who was with Kenny in Everton merchandise but there was another lad in an overcoat with our contingent and it could be him. My son was with me, I'll ask him. Who does Haller play for?

I think fc Utrecht mate, was linked us in the summer, he's a tall striker if memory serves,

Happy to hear that tbh, just looks like a poor mans John Carew from the clips i've watched.

If we are gonna spend a fair whack on a striker - much rather we went after the young lad from Ajax - Dolberg, to quote @MoutsGoat , he has magic in his boots

 

[Exeter Gently]

...my son says it wasn't him in the Directors Box.

Could be the Swedish lad Isak who we've been strongly linked with.

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

Anyone think we'll go back in for Sigurdsson?

I wish, but cant see it happening at all, not their style of #10 unfortunately.
