Transfer Window Thread

[Librarian]

City will walk it this season, the rest ain't all that. Real opportunity if anyone else can get their act together.

I would take Lennon, but a bit of inspiration could ignite this squad.

What has Martinez actually said on the player/'bid'?

If you mean Yarmolenko Dave, we bid. It was accepted.

 

[D410]

Some talk we have offered spurs a 2m loan deal on lennon - did we do the same for Barry in his last year.

Tomorrow we will be linked with a few more names we cant afford or cannot get over the line due to nasty clubs not meeting our terms, I expect.

 

[waggy27]

Phantom bids are a nonsense. Martinez wouldn't stand for playing that sort of game.

I hear a lot more negativity surrounding money disappearing than I hear happy supporters loving the fact the club are tenuously linked with players. 'Phantom bids' don't make any sense to me either. What benefit is there in getting fans excited and then letting them down and spending no money?

Watch yourself, it's dark in that rabbit hole.

But what has he said? Evidence there's been anything firmer than an enquiry? Evidence that Everton are bidding the required numbers?

You're accusing me of entering a fantasy world and you're the one dealing in hearsay.

 

[Scolari]

....have to say I like what I've seen of Praet. Whoever comes in as a no10 will probably mean a re-think of where Barkley plays.

I think the number 10 will be part of a front 3, the role cleverley has been playing so far, Barkley will be part of a midfield 3

 

[flibbyflob]

And the combined fees for those players total less than the fees that they've shelled out on for 12 new players?

No idea but they are the ones they have got rid of for money. Don't really pay that much attention to Stoke, was just answering the question.

 

[Ollie d]

I don't get why people are convinced nothing will happen just because they personally haven't heard anything.

Don't you know they are part of the Goodison transfer consortium? Multiple poster all know the inner workings of Martinez's mind...!

 

[bluestevon]

Bet he is playing.

aye tracking back has been top notch by him as well mate, much more than just some flair player

Dave, you're clearly a bright lad.

It always baffles me to see you nosedive into tinfoil territory so readily.

Just think about what you're suggesting. That this largely incompetent board can orchestrate something as complex as this - without anyone spilling the beans, or the manager getting upset - but they can't build a shop at the Park End.

It's potty.

 

[Number_25]

I read it all - the end just wasn't worth commenting upon. But honestly, you clearly haven't seen him for Milan if you think he'd be a great signing for us.

Basing his ability on one season in a very poor Milan side that finished 10th.

Nice one.

It was accepted and yet we dont have him.

I dont see anything other than speculation that Everton have been involved in any meaningful capacity.

...you accept it without evidence and yet it's me who has to wear a tin foil hat.

*confused*

 

[Blue Parkender]

Come on Roberto lets get Hakim Ziyech, you watched him last season so you know how good he is.

 

[roydo]

yet

Correct.
