Summer 2018 Transfer Window

[Blackwell Livermore]

Funny thing is I never called someone else that so wipe them tears away you gentile

Bale looks more like a marmoset really.

 

[windymiller]

Son would be great but he's got too much of a good thing going on at Spuds. He ain't their number one striker or winger, but he plays plenty of games as they've been in four competitions this season and will be in four again next one.

Plus Spurs make a mint off of him in S. Korean merchandising. That lad is going nowhere (plus all the novelty handshake thing would get on my nipples!)

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Well, he's played 25+ games for the past 2 seasons. Could clock 30+ for this season. So...something has changed in his fitness.

But knowing that if we got him, he'd be permo injured. The everton way.

Pulled out of the England squad due to an injury mate.

You stub a toe, clubs call you back.

 

[KaiserEFC]

You stub a toe, clubs call you back.

Given his injury record it’s probably not good news for the bloke.

 

[FTY]

Funny, call someone that and no one bats an eyelid, call someone else that and all hell breaks loose.

If you're gonna say it say it with your chest

Lol at the tosh

I agree. Would be nice for us to buy sensibly too. Players who are young and have a resale value (incase they dont work out). And not just spunk money on crap like Williams

Williams was not crap when we bought him. he was solid for Swansea and wales. Maybe we should be looking at the defensive coaches more.

This is true, we bought him off the back of a decent passionate Euro performance

This is a truly amazing list of absolutely medicore and expensive players only playing in England.

Doucoure is one of my favorites, but in general, how about we just buy a couple really good players instead? We don't need a left sided midfielder/striker, we've got Lookman and Bolaisse, one of which will be a legit starter in the PL under a better manager and Onyenkuru. Bolaisse can also play both sides and is a true winger, which we do not have so I'd keep him just to come off the bench and run at folks.

Mawson/Blind/Mee are just awful to mediocre. The average CB in England is just horrid, honestly. Johnny Evans isn't bad, but think we can look outside of England for one. If we want to deal with pressing teams like Man City and Liverpool, our CBs have to be able to pass the ball.

Its a list of players that would grace some League One sides for sure.

 

[Michaelcoyb]

Should be all over Evans for 3mill.

I remember some turning there noses up a few seasons ago.

‘Twas always my dream to see Jay Rodriguez lead our line at Goodison

Decent player the boy Jay Rod, but over in the stadium thread people are talking about ambition, then you look in here and people are talking about signing Jay Rod and that little 1 in 40 pixie from Stoke.

I still prefer a signing that has most of his career ahead of him. Apart from obviously having a resale value there is the more import point that they still have their career ambitions to achieve.

I cannot help but feel that Ashley Williams just has not had the same appetite for football since securing his last big pay day at Everton. It is also the risk with Theo Walcott once the opportunity to go to the world cup is decided... although in his case I don't think so.
Tosun is younger and you feel a player who profile is still rising in the game.
