Hes not far wrong.

In the grand scale of things, we have spunked most of the Felli money.

Kone 5m
Robles 1.6m
McCarthy 13m

Then theres the signing on fee for Alcatraazazaz, lets say 1m.

Barry loan, Lukaku loan, agents fees, Martinez compo, Backroom staff compo, new pitch, lick of paint, new badge.

Thats defo more than 27.5m

If that's the case, there should still be Vic's money, the money from last jan and the coming tv money. There should be money no doubt, how much and exactly where from nobody knows.
 
Would anyone consider a straight swap with barkely?? Just out of interest like.

God NO!

I remember being really gutted when Rooney left, but kind of accepted that it was bound to happen unfortunately.

I think Ross going would be worse, even more devastating as we're a different team now, and he's so much more likeable.

Ross HAS to be our Gerrard. We need to build a team around him and success WILL come.
 
This thread has been about Everton's lost finances for the last 3 pages. Frustrating scroll.
Having watched the Hammers yesterday there's a good chance Lukaku is going to absolutely destroy them. Hatrick. HATRICK.
 
This lad coming into our 11 with Barkley behind him could be frightening.

Away at a winable west ham is perfect as well, no pressure and our new way of playing is more suited to away games where you try to stiffle the home team and nullify the crowd.

Our bench looked terrible against chelsea tbh. Looked really weak if we were chasing the game. Be interesting to see how Martinez handles this because does he drop Jela straight away and completely destroy him? Or just bring Lukaku on second half?

Can only see this lad being a monster for us tbh, cant wait to see him in an everton shirt
 
On my home from Euston station on Saturday afternoon a couple of Chelsea lads going the match, i over heard one saying "our best players plays for them though"... Had a chat with them they said Lukaku should be starting for them based on his pre season performances and he'll do well this year.

Then the usual as long as he scores against the mancs ect ect..

A £1m signing on fee for Alcatraz? Really?

Come on, surely not. Barry loan wont be more than 50% of his wages, so what, £50k-£60k a week. Lukaku loan fee probably 50% of his wages too, so £30k-£40k. Agent's fees would just be pure speculation, will need sheedy to have a stab at those. Compo for Martinez was no more than £2m, I'm sure of that. Think it might have been as low as £1.5m (it was Martinez' wages for 1 year I think). And the backroom staff cost us nothing, Whelan himself said that.

Are we really accounting for the new pitch in transfer budget? Now that definitely sounds like Bill's accountant.

I would make it
£55k x 4 x 9 = £1.98m
£35k x 4 x 9 = £1.26m
£1m loan fee for Deolofeu, falling to £250k-£500k the more we play him. (Let's say £500k for sake of argument, but it may be as high as £1m even if we play him all the time. I remember seeing a quote from Sevilla moaning that they couldn't match what we were prepared to pay as a loan fee. Not sure how true this is or what the amount might be, so I'll settle on £500k)
£2m for Martinez & Alcaraz

So I make it
£6.24m + £5m + £1.6m + £13m = £25.84m
Given Liege possible sell on, and as you said other costs, then yes we've broken even on the Fellaini money I'd say.

But that's not factoring in the Anichebe money (£6m) or the fabled 'new TV deal' or just a transfer budget in and of itself. Such a thing does exist, I just don't think we know what that is. Southampton, Norwich, Cardiff, West Ham, Liverpool, Man Utd, Man City, Spurs, Arsenal, Chelsea, Villa all know what it is.

That's how's he's known in general to his friends ... Yeh suppose nothing much to worry bout little thing I got told bout 'maggy ' he's got himself in serious debt to the point his dads took hold of his finances and he only gets an allowance of £300 a week ... But I dunno how creditable these story's are like
 
Asked if he sees a future for himself at chelsea he replies 'i dont know'

asked if he could see himself staying at everton - i cant type quick enough...but he doesnt exactly rule it out....
