We're paying his wage + couple hundred thou I'd say.

'France's 75% tax rate gains approval by top court'

Isn't Monaco exempt from that ?

Really good news.

Hopefully for future signings we will relax and little and stop the virtual bed pissing on here when they haven't signed in 2 hours.

This. One million percent.

A proper weird site this one at times.

It's the internet mate, we must agree it's a pretty strange place.

Made up we've signed this lad on loan. Onus is now on him to prove himself.

 

[By god I'm blue]

This week we've had:
2 days ago - Everton are incompetent for not completing this deal, how long can it take
Today - Everton are rubbish, can't believe they've signed an injured player.

He'll give us another option up top, take pressure off our current striker and hopefully add to the goals tally.

It's a forum mate, you get differing opinions, it's no big deal really.

I agree Chicozaul, good post.

I'm loving it mate.

Complex financials. Taxes. Accounts.

Popcorn.

Loving it.

Oh and Everton got a new striker!

They've made a one off payment of £40m, presumably on behalf of the players paying the tax.

 

[Groucho]

Anyone remember how long it took Andrei Kanchelskis' deal to go through? Yep, about the same time as the modern era's entire summer transfer window.

As for the tall fella, gives us options, height, squad depth etc.

Saved themselves 1.5 million off that loaning us Traore for 18 months

Indeed, considering we've had two great transfer windows, are one point off fourth and have a winnable fourth round tie in the FA cup tomorrow. There's a reason I've felt much better about Everton by going on forums far less, it's a proper buzz kill, when you just scroll through negative people making unnecessary and bizarrely negative comments in the middle of what's a great season for us under a very switched on manager who is not putting any limits on our potential.

Yes, but we only got to where we are by having pretty much a full complement of our best players. The 'negativity' is that if we dont strengthen more than this then we'll soon fade away in the crucial period going toward Easter.

People are right to voice that concern. And they're right to look at what cash we've brought in and subtract that from what's been spent out on McGeady + a four month loan signing. That cash plus last summer's money should be poured into this window. We wont get many better chances of cracking the top four than this.

Still, it'll all be there next summer for Martinez to spend, plus the extra tv revenue .

Horlicks, if we would have spent a shed load on players in this window we would not have got the players robbo wants and paid way over the odds. Davek even if he had you wouldn´t have liked them .

Is he just till end of season or 18 months?
