Summer Transfer Window 2017

[Carlito]

We can do better than both mate specially now money isn't no object

Possibly. I don't think anyone who has come so far is on a different level to Shaqiri, though.

 

[Carlito]

I'd be made up with Benteke. Can't see Palace letting him go for anything less than an exorbitant fee, though.

 

[BlueToff]

Any foreign clubs selling to PL clubs also charge extortionate fees.

The only hope PL clubs have of doing cheap deals is if players have buy-out clauses, really.

 

[billyblue80]

Surely Walsh could unearth better than big Ben Ten?

 

[Smig1878]

Nah that's my job I'm a giant, lad.

Is that you Brett?

What an amazing summer it's been so far, just brilliant.
However I feel like a 'never happy evertonian' as I think we've got more strengthening to do and tbh I'm not at all convinced with Dzeko, Giroud or Benteke. Without wanting to be a whinger, I hope we can do better.

I've always thought we'd really go for VVD this summer and I wouldn't be surprised if we go for Mahrez too. Now THAT would set us up very nicely for a crack at the top 4 this season.

Palace, spent nowt sold nowt haha 0 met spend

Aside from that one player we shouldnt even consider is Dembele, didnt Celtic go all last season without losing? So when did he actualy play a hard game against a decent side?
What did he get last season 32 goals in 49 games? Sorry but at the standard he plays at that isnt anything special

17 goals in 20 games against farmers.

 

[billyblue80]

I'm surprised and slightly concerned we sold before we have a definite Lukaku replacement lined up.

Agreed.

 

[Librarian]

Could be just throwing a name out there to get Arsenal to accept

 

[billyblue80]

How much would Palace even want?I dread to think.

 

[GwladysPhil]

You don't need a world class striker to score goals.

As long as everyone else can contribute we will win more games.

But we've also got Rooney so let's steam roll this season and shock the world!

 

[Smig1878]

He's Heskey mark 2.

Nothing like him, can't stick that one. Heskey was rapid and very mobile, played left wing at times. Still crap but got such a good career in endeavour over skill.

Benteke is a different kind of player altogether

 

[Darth Toffeeman]

He's Heskey mark 2.

Nah we just got £75m for that accolade.

 

[Whitty]

Probably because he did not make the grade at Liverpool. In fairness to the lac they did not play yo his strengths. Not mobile enough for my liking

Correct. Liverpool shipped him out because he's incapable of playing a pressing game - which is what Koeman appears to want to play. Great in the air but offers little else.
