Transfer Window Thread

[Mantequilla]

Tbf he must be gutted going from Bayern to Stoke in less than a year. Poor get. Not that he'll have been any less gutted to end up at Everton, like.

I remember the Marcus Bent signing , and fans going Ballistic, we came 4th that year surely there are gems in the championship - i have no faith in these euro has beens wanting 60 -70 k per week!

Mate, was a different era under Johnson and under Smith. We've had 2 years of record SKY money, irrespective of loans etc

IF there is no money for transfers then I suggest that the Fraud squad need calling and Revenues and Customs get a call.

Wait until September mate. I'm pissed off we didn't get Shaqiri but if we did bid, then the money is there. If we don't spend a further 15m or so, then the board really are in trouble. Martinez wouldn't say he wants 3 players if he didn't have money, he'd be saying we're fine because of our 'phenomenal' youngsters.

a 12 million & 70 grand a week gamble ???????

Well yes that's why I think we shied away from a permanent signing. Every signing is a gamble though, some more than others.

others have invented new art forms to express their dismay.

I didn't do that. I sang opera.

We have lost out to Stoke, I must admit I am having a problem getting my head around it,maybe it's because I can Remember when the name Everton meant something,and today this has sadly confirmed to me that them days have gone, it really is unbelieible but there it is, this old man has seen the light,I mean Stoke ffs. What a come down for one of the biggest names in football, thank you Bill.

Mail saying we had scouts at Nice Monaco. Berbatov? Martial? Could see the logic in both.

Wont be for Berbatov. Monaco released him before that game

Singing the new Cheeky Girls song isn't helping anything mate.

Stoke have a billionair owner we have BK , but we must have money - RM states he wants three players so keep the faith the seasons started BK always waits till deadline day saves on wages!

You have to listen - but don't read the words first. That'll spoil it.

When was the last time we signed someone who had no previous affiliation with the club/manager to persuade them to come and join us that another side was also interested in?

Lukaku (had a loan spell with us, only went permanent as Chelsea didn't want him)
Deulofeu (had a loan spell with us, only went permanent as Barca didn't want him)
Cleverley (played under Martinez)
Barry (had a loan spell with us, only went permanent as City didn't want him)
Kone, Joel, Alcaraz McCarthy (All played undr at Wigan)

Our first impressions/negotiations must be awful, as all of these already new the club/manager before they signed permanantly

 

[Joey66]

That Garbutt is alright

pity we sent him on a season long loan with Baines injured!

I would look like Norman Wisdom in a beret like that!

I would look like Michael Crawford.
