Summer Transfer Window 2017

[rochdaleblue]

Yes it worried me a touch but actions speak louder than words & we certainly
Ain't limited to any age group everyone seems to be a target of they are good enough regardless of age

You're right. I'm not just enjoying the window because who we have signed, but the potential ahead of us. Pickford, klassen, Sandro, Henry and Keane are all good players and will improve our squad I've no doubt, but more importantly their best footballing years are ahead of them. However, if I could pick one player in the 27-29 bracket I'd hope it would be a striker with a top pedigree. We can't afford to 'gamble' on inexperience when replacing our best player in the most prominent and important position on the pitch.

He didnt say we are only going that bracket, he said we NEED players in that bracket.

Martina is 27, Sigi is 27.

Neither has been bought yet. Siguardsson (as much as I like him) won't be coming here for 40m.

Jong Uns you say?

 

[Foot Long Hot Dog]

Yes but RK told us all, we are only going for players in the 27-29 age bracket. I guess that remark has 'thrown' a few agents and clubs.

Giroud is 30 mate

*taps nose*

I wouldn't rule that out, or certainly a very small net spend.

Whilst I hear your net spend arguments, we must consider that key players at Everton are now at a premium so we can't punish the club for getting the best price, even if we don't reinvest every last penny back in. We can only buy so many first team players and currently they won't be players in the 40-50 mill bracket, but bear with me....

If we can build and make progress season on season that we encourage the higher end of the market players to eventually come.

Net spend is unimportant to me, if we improve our league position each season.

 

[Foot Long Hot Dog]

Absolutely no chance. We will end up in profit with a better squad (albeit a striker downgrade) and quite right too.

I doubt we'll end up with a surplus, but I agree it's unimportant. If we spend £150m on players and only end up spending say £30m net, then that's just great business.

I'm just really excited to see some new decent players. I still can't believe we've signed Klaassen.

I certain would

Exactly. As long as each window passes and the team and squad is stronger that is all that matters. If you take the case of Sandro and cleverley, Everton has a positive net spend of 3m on those 2 deals. However we haven't weakened the squad in any way.

It's bare, mate.

 

[hetion]

Hes utter garbo.

God no

He's really not that good. Scored a lot in the championship I know but I think he would struggle in the prem against better quality every week.

You lot have just watched one U21 game haven't you. It's okay to admit it, I won't be cross. I'll be back here for the vault in a few years though. Memory like an elephant me.
