Don't think we'll sign anyone. I'll be very surprised if something happens.

Without injuries we have a decent squad. Perhaps Pienaar need replacement and we need to sign a striker, but we'll do our business in the summer.

Gonna be a bit trickier turning the summer squad into one capable of realistically pushing top four (no Lukaku, Deulofeu, Traore, possibly no Barry) than the opportunity we have in front of us now. That's why it's a crying shame and an absolute disgrace that the board will not give the manager even money he's been able to raise by selling players to give us a bit of a chance to challenge Liverpool for top four.

Comes to something when Sunderland Fulham Cardiff etc etc etc outspend EFC every window

We 'have money'; we're within spitting distance of the top four and placed well for a good cup run; the squad is as weak as gnat's piss through long term injuries = we're highly unlikely to get signings.

Magnificent isn't it?

very suprised by this Moisander rumour. It would excite me like theres no tomorrow. Finnish national team is pyar tosh but i quess Moisander has a lot of potential. CL experience, captain.

Sorry mate, but I have to disagree. Imo Mosisander is a case of NGE (Not Good Enough) for Everton. Nothing special at Ajax, so I highly doubt he'll be able to make the step up to the Premiership.

If someone below us signs Banega the fume levels will be unreal.

@EvertonOnLoan: Hallam Hope's loan at Northampton has finished. He is now back with #efc

LocalNative · January 30, 2014

Wishful thinking about Canales, but he's off to Real Sociedad according to the grapevine.

Lot of talk here in Buenos Aires today that Banega wants to come to Boca on loan until the world cup - it will keep him well in the shop window for the national team.

Vélez will be watching that space, so to speak, if there is any truth in it. Gago´s return to Argentina pushed him further up the national team ranking despite what many would have expected in advance of his return.

It's like a new signing!

this is painful..nothing is happening at all, boo hoo

argietoffee · January 30, 2014

So we have not lost all hope yet of strengthening the squad?

marsh · January 30, 2014

Didn't someone at the club in the summer say that we would of spent 13m on McCarthy regardless if Fellaini went or not, so really we should have the Fellaini money, Anichebe and Jelavic money but oh no we're Everton FC and we have no ambition and want to finish 7th!!!!
