Transfer Window Thread

I agree, that has been my hunch so far as well. Stones will thank us for not letting him go if he develops for a year or two, plays well in the Euros and at an age of 23 to 24 Barca will be perfect for him. It would be a great highlight as English players aren't the apples of the eyes of other European clubs but Stones would then be a tailor made for Barca especially with Pique and Mascherano entering their 30s.

The fact that Mourinho waited all summer and was willing to pay 35m for Stones I'm sure has made a lot of clubs around Europe take notice. Stones just needs to put his head down and continue his development and he will get a better move.

How much have they spent on the Mori fella and Fernandez-Vacini? Are we still the lowest spending club?

 

[marty mcfly]

Yes, but he knows the differences between having nothing in hand and a few million in it to put toward buying a new player themselves or tying down a player they have.

I know but we won't get him cheap. 6m will be the best we will be able to get.

They'll be back, and when they do I'll laugh my cock off on twiiter with my serious winding up on the Chelski fans.

Have we even signed Funes Mori yet?

Doubt that very much. Everton wont part with £6M for a player we can get in 12 months for nothing. Cleverley is the template with that.

That's a good point too. If its Barcelona, Real Madrid, P$G or Bayern Munich who are interested then we should be asking a minimum of 40M to 45M for him. I reckon making him sign a new contract with a release clause of 40M (till end of July) is a good option.

I'm 65% sure that the Yarmalenko and Austin deals are done, SKY are paying us a bucketload of cash to keep them sealed away until 4pm tomorrow so that cretin Jim White can announce it, and they can pretend their WWE style joke of a show is worthy of air time.

You lot right now

 

[evertoniano]

We aren't in serious trouble although we are a middle-tier team without a No 10. If we don't get a No10 then we can kiss goodbye any chance of Top 4 for another year which is a shame because I think there's a good chance with Utd struggling someone (probably Liverpool) will break into it.

Yes I agree, I didn't mean trouble as in relegation but referring to finishing in the top 4/5/6 positions which should be our aspirations.

As the Spurs fan said i can see this mimicking the Modric transfer. We probably won't get as much for Stones from Barca but they might do us a good deal for someone like Roberto or even Bartra.

Because it's deadline day today in much of Europe, does that mean we can still sign anyone before 6pm tomorrow?

Yes, clubs can still sell once the window closes in their country.

We can still buy until 6pm tomorrow

Rest of Europe will not be able to BUY after their deadline, but can still sell.

Dreading this time tomorrow when the inevitable McNulty tweet arrives: "Following the completion of the Funes Mori deal, the BBC understands that Everton are unlikely to do any more business today".

*sigh*

I'm dreading the tweet that says "Everton have failed with the Mori deal and the BBC understands that Everton are unlikely to do any more business today".
