January Transfer Thread 2017

[Goat]

It is a fair point... Would we be looking to conduct quick business if WBA came at us for Del and McCarthy.....? No, i think we would string them along and ask for top dollar.

I said I thought this window would be all about sell to buy, but as a numbers excercise.

So for example.

Morgs In Jamo/The Clev Out
Deeps In Geri Out
CB In Jags? Out
GK In Robles? Out

Niasse Out SS In?

Spinkled with a few up and coming punts for the U23s/Future, who may or may not make an impact this season.

Number ten MG.

Interesting then.

Tomorrow's News Today:

Niasse completes Hull loan. Up front 1m. Option to buy for 4m more.

Schneiderlein to everton falls through due to life threatening knee explosion

Depay moves on loan to AS Roma. Option for 21m in summer.

Everton move swiftly to tie up loan deals for Fabian Delph (Schneids alternative) and also Saloman Kalou.

That's all from me.

I said concrete. Not porridge.

Realistically all the players we actually will sign haven't been mentioned in the media and won't be.

If sigi runs and runs, he might be the fall back option, maybe, but I think and im just guessing here, he was the fall back option to Morgs, not sure, I know hes played all over the place, but where did he play mostly last season?

Nominally defensive mid, but as a playmaker not a truly defensive player mate.

He's nothing like schneids though besides for both having superb engines and the right attitude/aggression, both got a good ability to get that deep ball out to the runners as well.

Nearest comparrision I can give is a younger lampard but more versatile (and not quite so lethal obviously)

Hi all, as a kid from the 70's and a long time blue I've been following this forum for quite a while, but this is actually my first post on here.
In Belgian press there is talk that Everton is interested in Ishak Belfodil who is currently playing for Standard de Liege here in Belgium. I don't follow Standard every weekend, but in the games I saw from him he made quite an impression. He is a real target player, very strong and a real fighter. Anybody else heard this rumours?

Welcome mate Saw it mentioned somewhere today but nothing concrete

So would you compare him to Sigi?

 

[bluestevon]

Interesting then.

Honestly speaking I wouldn't think he'd play in this league as part of a mid two mate, unless we went a lot more adventurous than we will. He's good at nicking balls and reading the game, but for tackling see lampard or scholes.

Best position would we wide left as a playmaker, think tadic but a lot better.

I have a feeling Fonte could come here, why has he put in a transfer request in we really need a new CB (Koeman Southampton connection). We shall see.

Its a possible.

Hard one mate, cos I've seen him play all across the mid and wide positions.

He's a creative player with a knack for getting unmarked into the box. And very very good vision

Would be amazed if we are interested. We have enough ageing CH as it is. China bound me thinks. One last pay day.

Time will tell.

 

[eurosrees]

Would love Sigurdsson, cracking player, Similar to Defoe at Sunderland they'd be daft to sell him at anything under £30m this month, he's been involved in 11 out of their 23 league goals, they'd be relegated if he leaves.

 

[Goat]

Time will tell.

Part of me hopes not RayRay, hes really not the age we need, REALLY, but hes a good player and would give us a short term boost, but its a no from me.

No real chatter either for now, just seems all a bit strange.
