Summer transfer window 2023

There were similar reports about Bernard the summer we signed him, his agent was asking for crazy money, no one bit and he joined us at the end of the window. I still don’t think we’ll get Kamada though.
Depends what we would offere i would try for 2 year deal option of 3 with relase clause in his contract. Agree tough deal but could be a great move imo
 
Danjuma he's like a new striker except he isn't a striker...
I'll take this "not a striker" over the actual strikers we have.

If, as a club (and I mean the Board), they want us to retain PL status and reap all the financial benefits of doing so then they need to support Dyche and get in the player(s) he believes is/are needed to do so. I mean, we're not looking at the likes of Mbappe FFS but players who are within our price range and better still utilise existing team players as make-weights to help offset the likely wage demands of the incoming player(s).

I know we are not swimming in money and have to be careful of FFP - which seems only to apply to all but the current 'Big 5/6' - but within reason and, yet, we act like a rudderless two bob Club. No wonder we are a laughing stock!
 
I think given they probably don’t want to sell along with the season Maupay has had, valuing him even over €10m is probably tough. They’ll probably want €20m-€25m + Maupay at a minimum I’d imagine.
They wanted Maupay for 17m euros last summer, based on the full career he's had and the qualities he has. A bad year somewhere totally unsuitable for him takes that value down but it doesn't obliterate it, he's not a different player. I'd say somewhere around 10m Euros is a reasonable valuation for a deal like this. These things aren't done in one transaction but I'd say a deal where we pay 30m Euros and they pay 10m Euros for would be a reasonable one.
 
Accountable for what? If you think that fans had any influence over how the Board spent the money Moshiri put into the club you are overestimating the power of the Everton supporter. You only have to look at the way the club has been run for years to see the Board have no thought as to the wants or needs of the people who pay to watch the team. A prime example of the regard Kenwright and Moshiri have for the supporters of the club is the way they leaked lies about headlocks and their safety towards the end of last season. The total disregard of the fans is now compounded by the fact Kenwright is still in post. In order to hold people accountable those people have to be accountable, in the sorry demise of a once great football club there are people who should be held to account, diluting the blame only serves to put of the day when those who are truly responsible have to take responsibility. Hopefully that day is not too far off, hopefully the club can rid itself of the incompetence at the top and then, and only then, it can start the long process of healing both in terms of sporting achievement and integrity.
Everton fans want to take all the credit when there’s any sort of reflective credit to be had yet it’s never their fault when they hamstrung the club, which is often.
 

You're a brave poster mate, most folk don't want to talk about this, fair play
Thank you I just wanna try and be fair at all times mate. Some Evertonians, who cried “it’s not your money” at other fans when Everton wasted money that nearly relegated them are the real issue here and I think all normal blues can see them squirm when I gently ask them to be a little accountable.

I spent about 2 years saying it.

I wish to say I am NOT sorry and I will do it again.
 
I think Maupay would probably do well in Italy but we don’t really get to factor that in on our side. He’s been poor for Everton so his value isn’t that high. We’d probably gladly sell him for £10m, so in a swap deal his value would be lessened in the favour of them.

I just don’t think this deal represents good value or business for us honestly. We’re much better off going for Iheanacho and Gnonto for the same “value”, even though at this point we’re leaving it so late now that those deals will be harder to get done.
Only time will tell if it will be a good deal. If we get him, and starts banging them in then yes , it will be.

We are that desperate at the moment and for someone who has 16 in 33 , the price mooted isn't thst bad if im honest. Ok, different league , but isn't that what we want? Players that haven't always got prem experience?
