January Transfer Thread 2017

Lookman brought in to provide some width maybe, but I wondered about the 3-4-3 as well, which for me could explain the link to Fonte, as I could see him and Williams with Holgate, 2 older heads and 1 youngster.

Thing is, it's nice to have choices. Shame about Bolasie, I would liked to have seen him in a side with a bit more pace and some new faces. Hard to see him dropping Davies just yet either who actually has a chance to make a place for himself.

Gk
Holgate - Williams - Fonte
Coleman - Gana - Schneiderlin - Baines
Barkley
Lukaku - Berahino or Belfodil


​

Put Belfodil on the bench and that is an option.

!!!!!!!

@MoutsGoat

We all know what his answer will be!

 

[ExpatinBangkok]

I really rate him highly. I only hope Koeman will play him up front with Lukaku. Together they can destroy defenses.

Ishak, your English is excellent!

 

[John Osters Love Child]

I'd lean toward Saido but only because he's proven his worth (when fit) in the premierleague.

 

[ijjysmith]

There's only one reason i'd take Saido and that's that he's clearly a nobhead. And our team needs more nobheads.

Have the "delegation" finally concluded their negotiations?

I currently live on the outskirts of the camp. Peering in and laughing at people who don't have electric.

January Transfer Thread 2017

YouTube interview link:

(Don't know if RTBF content is localized so found new youtube link) . It's a decent interview. He talks different topics. Like why he has had so many clubs... That he does not consider himself to be a striker; he says his best position is a 10 (offensive midfielder)...

 

[Bulgarian toffee]

There was a moment in Southampton or Hull game that infuriated me. Lukaku headed the first ball like 5-6 yards away from himself and went to chase it because there was no another Everton player around. And this has happened for like 2,5 years now.
Now imagine someone else winning the first ball thus setting Lukaku up one-on-one with a player. Or another body in the opposition box to meet a cross. Lord, I love dreaming!
Having said that, I think that Belfodil will turn out a good buy. The reports given to us by our Belgian friends indicate that he is exactly the kind of a player that would complement Lukaku perfectly - strong and industrious. I don't know why people expect us to sign another goal machine. We have one, he just needs help to become even better. If till the end of the season Belfodil scores 3-4 goals and directly or indirectly helps Lukaku scoring 7-8 more, it will be a great return to start with.

Belfodil moving closer to Everton. According to Belgian newspaper DH he'll leave the training camp of Standard tomorrow and fly to England.

Good player. I'd say one of the five best in the Belgian league in these first 6 months.

As for the reason Standard would sell him: they got him on a free transfer and Everton would pay 12mil euro (+- 10mil pound). That's a no brainer for any football club in Belgium.

 

[Pabbers]

Looks on, Walsh all over this. Suppose this was what we wanted.

Decent.
