2017/18 Ramiro Funes Mori

[toffeejack]

That's a poor fee.

interesting we punted him before the other 2, i assume this is simply because we had a decent offer for him and we need to shift players asap??

Will be interesting to see if his knee hampers him over the next few seasons. It may simply be it's all gone a bit Ledley King for him and the club don't think he's worth the risk.

That's a poor fee.

Minus half a million that as gone to River

 

[Neiler]

Its a good deal we cleared about 4.5mill in profit, his book price was 4.5 mil with two years remaining on his contract, also cleared his wage.

We've sold our best senior defender for peanuts. Lovely start to the window.

That, or he wanted to leave the club, whereas Williams and Keane are happy to stay on their lucrative contracts which they certainly will not get anywhere else.

I've said numerous times that I'd have been content with Jagielka and Mori staying - even in the short term - whereas the the other two I'd happily let go.

Devils Advocate : The source for the €9m fee is as reliable as the source for the €20m fee i.e. not reliable.

No point in being delighted with the €20m fee or angry with the €9m - it's all jarg speculation really when the clubs don't announce a figure.

Are you saying that we are selling players we want to keep and keeping players we want to sell because we are not getting bids in.....that doesn't really make any sense.
I think very few will lament the sale of Funes Mori. An enthusiastic but limited and unreliable defender.

Tbh mate, I think bar Coleman and Holgate, the whole of our defence is probably available if the right bids come in.

I am not sure we can let that happen.
I think Williams will leave, I think Jagielka and Baines will be kept as part of the squad for another twelve months and replaced then.
Seamus and Holgate are not for sale I would say and I have no idea about Keane. He seemed like a good signing but has disappointed but then he has played under two managers at Everton who have been left go by the club.. not the easiest environment to settle into a new club.

We have so many very young players we do need to keep experience around them , on the field and around the club, imo.

That's a poor fee.

It's the only way we'll shift people.

 

[RomanReigns]

he'll be off his bonce on the malbec tonight

9m? Thats fine, again were going on about fee's we really need to get past all this fee talk, the Moyes skint era has gone, if we didnt rate him why would be expect more? Players not in our plans need to be gone.

He is rushy and makes poor decisions. Not a good defender let alone the best. He is good at headers though.

Holgate gone?
Damn, Marcel really is keeping stuff quiet.

And before you say it....he is a senior...he plays in the first team.
