The summer 2013 Everton transfer rumourZ thread

[throughthewindandthedrain]

Don't listen to bookies . Last summer on talksport a guy from the men was talking about uniteds deals and he was asked about a few targets he was then asked about baines and he said I can see this one being the only deal to be wrapped up in a few weeks . In reality united didnt even make a bid . It's dragging on to long now he won't go and I don't think Fellaini will go . There is just not a lot of intrest in the players. Arsenal have to sign higuian or rooney first so I doubt they will be splashing out on him before addressing the main problem

definitely don't see anything that would convince them Fellaini or Baines are certain to go so taking it as them keeping up interest because they are pretty certain they won't. their odds are longer than they have been for awhile so assume your average punter thinks its all been nonsense. still get annoyed at how much it is talked about in same breath as Suarez and Rooney, both players who have made massive statements about leaving. got to be unsettling the team on some level as it certainly unsettles the fans. How do you stop it though?

He can sh*t in their faces if he keeps us clean sheets.

This.

Tom Cleverly?

F*cking hell.

on transfer front... a bookie on talksport has said they expect Baines and Fellaini to go, just wondering if you were a bookie and thought something was likely to happen would you go and tell people to back it. Both staying.

They know **** all, thankfully.

Apparently we enquired about Matri but they want too much

I don't know about that, they know how to make money on gullible people. Sky are tremendous at it, stick a nothing transfer story on its website and a link to Skybet to have a wager on it.

Lot of double standards over this. Spitting is bad, but so too is racially abusing your own players (which is what the most successful captain of this club did as manager at a lower league club ) as is getting caught up in the sectarian hatred of your supporters and butting someone in the face (as Duncan Ferguson did), as is smacking **** out your bird (as Pienaar has apparently been cautioned about).

In other words, it's a dangerous game taking the moral high ground. In this instance it's being highlighted ad nauseum by someone who wont accept Martinez as manager and uses anything and everything as a way of attacking him. I suspect if we had another manager they wouldn't give a shiny one about spitting.

...whilst all such actions are inexcusable I think we have to reflect that many of these blokes come from impoverished backgrounds and vastly different cultures. They might be multi-millionaires now but they are lads who come from streets where they had to scrap for everything. Even little guys like Pienaar are probably tough as old boots. What we need to ensure is that they maintain decent standards when wearing the Everton shirt and we don't belittle the club defending the indefensible if they step out of line.

Moyes has now boasted with Uniteds unlimited budget -
he says he is in no rush - only going to buy the best -
Bale and Ronaldo first the papers say -
and if there is some small change left he will probably go for Fellaini and Baines -

True.

If we sell Fellaini and buy Cleverly or McCarthy I'll volley the alley cats at the back of my house.

....sounds like we might be better buying you.

I can predict their habits, its all about being in the right place at the right time, you just can't teach it.

Realistically, how much money does everyone think we have left to spend?? 10M?

Sell Heitinga + Gueye and we could be looking at 15? Even if Baines and Fellaini did go we could potentially be looking at a transfer kitty of 60. Silly numbers....

I seriously doubt we would get more than 10 for heitinga and gueye. Heitinga seems quite happy to pull a Winston Bograde on us

Imagine bobby having 60m to spend, Christ sake, the tosh he would buy would be amazing.

25m for Maloney.
