January Transfer Thread 2017

[maccavennie]

Think those two will have been already told to find a new club.

Del, McCarthy, Oviedo, jagielka, mori, honestly think any/all of those could be off if we sign players the manager wants in the positions.

Interesting if we loan rather than sell to try give us more leeway with stcc next summer as we can sell the dead wood then, hopefully after a decent loan spell raises there stocks

Even if the loan doesn't raise their value mate, at least they are off the books for a few months. Cleverley and Niasse have contributed nothing just as Kone, Gibson have done sod all as well

I'm in agreement with you regarding Jags or Mori, I think he would sell either or both if he could get in a top drawer cb

 

[maccavennie]

Also think we are in for 3-4 more incomings and will be massively the biggest spender this window, which will take some getting used to.

I mentioned a couple of weeks ago I think we will spend 60m+ and I see no reason to change that view. He needs players, good ones and they cost a few bob!

Well done to Stoke for getting their man, he'll be a good signing for them

I read he was not interested in Stoke waiting for Everton

We can dream can't we mate

I think we will get this striker in from Liege, a cb ( don't think it will be VVD though never say never ) and if no one can agree a deal with utd we will loan Depay.

I think Deulofeu might be on his way out. Can't think of any club ( not even Sunday league ) who would want Kone or Gibson

Actually with no evidence just feel we may go all in for VVD with an offer too good to turn down.

Mertens I doubt we have any chance but don't ask don't get.

Depay maybe a deadline day deal. This French striker came out the blue the other day so obviously the club's got a fair few targets we have no clue about still.

I want them all mate, a new signing every day and a new sale every day and by the end of the month we will have a brand new squad

Us signing Daffodil has pretty much closed our interest I reckon

I am calling Daffodil too.

Sad to have to relinquish the battle to Stoke, but I can't see any other outcome now

Still, if we sign him I'm going to demand a full video reaction from @MoutsGoat as he smashes up his living room

 

[John Osters Love Child]

2-3 more improvement signings/Steve Walsh gems and 1 statement signing and i'll be a very happy chap. I think a lot depends on who leaves. If Geri goes we need another winger and if McCarthy goes another midfielder. IMO we need a CB, creative midfielder and a Striker. Anything else is a bonus
i get the impression that whilst Schniederlin was no 1 priority with Gana's absence i don't think he's our top target (if that makes sense).

He may want 3 strikers to be able to actually mix things up. Don't give up hope mate the #saidocamp is with you

I friend of mine accidentally ate a daffodil bulb when he dug it up and mistook it for an onion.

He's in hospital and the Doctor's say he'll be out in Spring.

VVD, Gimenez and Mertens! Wow!
Surely we can test the resolve of the Southampton board by bidding like 45 mln for him. They are 100% aware that they will loose him soon. They know that he is at his peak now and they will have to make the tough decision to wait for the summer or sell now. If Southampton lose against the RS in the second leg, their season is basically over and they may suffer a loss of form. 4-5 more performances like against Tottenham or , God forbid, injury, and they could see 10-15 mln of his present price leak in the drainage.
Jose Gimenez. I happen to have watched a lot of Atletico games in the last 3-4 years and I can tell you that this is a smoking hot prospect. I remember watching him for the first time and thinking "Wow! Who is this boy?". Bare in mind that Atletico is, or at least was till very recently the best team in Europe, when it comes to defending and team effort. So, being part of the core of that defence speaks volume. My hope here is that Gimenez seems to have fallen out of favour and Simeone tend to get rid of such players with ease. He obviously doesn't believe in the second chance. Just look at Mandjukic, Vietto, Kranevitter, Jackson Martinez, Oliver Torres, Siqueira, Mario Suarez and I am pretty sure that Gaitan will soon follow.
Mertens will be extremely hard. Napoli are fighting for their CL spot and to sell their best player now would be suicidal.

Are we actually after these three, or is it just your wishful thinking?

 

[malfosse]

To add, if anyone can volunteer some time to help update the website on the front page with general Everton news we'd be hugely appreciative.

We struggle to keep the site up to date. Niasse news and Koeman's conference today being examples...

I'd do it mate, but I make Ned Ludd look like Bill Gates.

 

[marnie]

Have we signed Ben Fogle yet ?

 

[Bulgarian toffee]

Sorry mate, I always like to think that the world revolves around Everton. When a player is linked with a move away I expect Everton to have knowledge of such situations lol He could be a decent player for Everton, if we didn't have Bolasie and Mirallas.

Mate, it does revolve around Everton, if you ask me. Especially in January and in the summer
There seems to be a pattern with Simeone - if his new players don't fit quickly, he doesn't hesitate to sell them. About Gaitan - I don't think he will be worth the money they will want for him.
