Weve been linked since last window.

If Godfrey goes and we manage to shift Holgate & Keane in the summer then he'd be 3rd choice. Also hes right sided so would be the Tarkowski competition.



Interesting. So behind Tarkowski & Branthwaite you are comfortable with Keane & Godfrey (who is being offered around).

Because a 4th choice winger leaving to bring in a 3rd choice centre back makes perfect sense to me.

On a separate deal with Godfrey moving somewhere we could use those funds to bring in a winger.

Not rocket science.

Your assumption is we are going to get actual money for Godfrey, more than likely be a loan with an option, I don`t think a player who hasn`t played regularly for years is suddenly going to fetch good money.

I think also pressing is getting Holgate (We are still paying a big portion of his wages), Gomes and Alli of the books, that will save us over £6m to £10m in wages just for what is left of this season.

Really sad state of affairs, we haven`t really got any decent youngsters we can promote such has been the failure of our academy in recent times.

I think 17 year old Martin Sherif could go on to be a 1st team player in future years, 6` 1" already with 4 goals in 495 minutes, a goal ever 124 minutes. Big number 9, you heard it here 1st...
 
This transfer window has been great. Talk about creating your own problem. Nobody has signed anyone, everyone is worried because of the Everton Guinea pig, it’s created a poor market, worried clubs, which effectively now will result in a poor end of season run in where nobody can showboat new players or a player who comes in and keeps someone up etc. The Premier League is dying and I’m all for it.

You’ve never seen him play have you?

Yes, but not live can`t remember if it was U18s or PL2... seen a couple of games, if he can keep that goalscoring record up and develop the rest of his game we might have a prospect.

Give him a year or 2 with a decent loan....

His technique is very Beto so you might be waiting awhile.

Are you saying young players can`t develop?

Like I said given the right coaching, which is Evertons job, and a good European loan I think he will be good. A bit different comparing a 17 year kid to a 26 year old pro, I know which one I think has more development potential.

Where did I say that? Technique can be improved but there has to be a base level already there. He’s incredibly raw even for 17. Compare him to the likes of Dibling or Scarlett at that age.

I think we`ve tried the whole Dom or Beto and the Dom and Beto experiment, perhaps it is time to let Chermiti have a run and leave the other two on the sidelines.

To me this whole team knows who will play week in week out, there is no competition for places and everyone has just got really relaxed and doesn`t have to fight for their place each week.

still doubt very much Moyes will let him go and also not a cheap loan / no mandatory option to buy deal that we offer

He doesn't play that much at West Ham, a bit too maverick for someone like Moyes. He does seem a bit of a confidence player but when he is on it he can be unplayable at times.

I think we'll see Holgate and Godfrey off this January and I wouldn't be surprised if Danjuma tries to get out due to his lack of game time.

As a fanbase, we are desperate for some fresh blood especially in midfield so hopefully a few loans can come in to help out.

Money is very very tight but these pending sanctions have hampered us because of the leagues complete and utter incompetence.

I would be happy for the 10 points to be returned rather than any signing but I know our fans, we need that injection as boost.
