Summer transfer window 2023

[Toffeepot]

I don’t mean all as in this window. I’m talking about their exorbitant spending since they came back up. It’s never spoken about unlike us who apparently are 50p shy of a 10 point reduction.

I don't know, but I bet their wage bill is a lot smarter than ours
No chance their version of holgate is on 72k/w for example

 

[Toffeepot]

We've got to stop using this as a benchmark

it's the perfect benchmark until we sign more strikers that ensure he doesn't play
I'll be happy to stop then

Worse than ours from a cursory glance on Google.

isn't ours 96% of turnover or something insane like that?

That Jebbison thing isn't even new its from a Liverpool echo article this morning saying we had looked at Jebbison as a long term target. Unless this is a new piece of info?

We were linked with him as soon as he scored against us at Goodison, I think it was the covid season and he was about 16 or 17.
Maybe we could offer them cash plus Holgate, as they are apparently interested in him.

I know he’s only 20, but he had 19 appearances and 2 goals last season in the championship, Simms did better than that in half a season on loan at Sunderland. There must be better options?

I mean that’s a different question. From checking about 6 websites they spend more than £20m p/y on wages than us. Our revenue is crap of course but can’t see why there’s is so much stronger.

Villa have done some amazing business Tielemans, Torres and Diaby... Scary how far were falling behind teams like this now.

Fun fact villa have a player that is the joint 5th most expensive player in the world

End of the day if we haven’t got a striker in by 12th August there needs to be more resignations or sackings. This interim board malarkey is an absolute joke and is just causing more disruption during a vital transfer window.

just checked and besides the fact I saw three different figures for Everton, the one I saw for Villa was higher than all of them
Guess it'll catch up with them if they don't stay in Europe

Gotta say I'm suprised by that

Wasn’t suggesting they’re in any trouble or anything but the amount of crap we get about our financial state by the league how is theirs meant to be any better.

yea, in terms of fanbase we surely match them

We must be out of the woods now... we've spent nothing lately and sold a fair few

Signing a marginally better striker than possibly the worst striker to ever wear the shirt won't save this team. We need a striker that actually contributes. Being better than Maupay isn't enough, just like being better than Gbamin, Holgate, Keane etc.. isn't enough. I'd rather buy one genuinely decent player than five "better than X" players.

Holgate is on 72k a week.
Lord knows what our less than turgid players are on.

The only pleasure about being an Everton fan in the near future is the new ground, and even that will wear off extremely quickly if Kenwright is still clinging on / we're still flirting with relegation / we're in the Championship.

There will be no footballing success for Everton in the 2020s, and I think if we can get to 2030 as a once again top 8 team it'll be a huge success, which in itself is incredibly sad.

We can rule out being anywhere near to City, United, Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea and Newcastle. Spurs and Villa are both looking to be some years ahead of us in their development while the likes of Brighton, Brentford and Fulham will not be easy teams to overtake in the next 2-3 years.

BMD will be great until we all remember we're still a nothing club and a shiny new stadium isn't going to propel us past State-owned and/or genuine megaclubs like United and Liverpool who have tens of millions of fans around the world.

Already has gone for me, it does look amazing but the mess this team is in at this time i just cant accept. Is getting harder trying to keep be positive this window, all i see is the club trying to show stadium pics, videos ect to try and keep the fanbase happy. Is all about recruitment this season for me we need attackers
