Transfer Window Thread

So we haven't even managed to sign Lennon?

Well.. deals can go through after the window is shut (shuts officially at 8pm), just if the necessary paperwork has been sent and the actual deals were finalised before 6pm. Lennon is still possible basically.

We've had much, much worse windows than this.

1AM here in China. Can't believe I got sucked in to this. My daughter just had night terrors too, maybe she heard my groans of despair from reading some of these comments.

Bernard, Brazilian, ripe for the "we just missed out on him" crap.

....that's due to follow within about 40 minutes mate, that we were '...*brings thumb & forefinger together* ...this close'.

Really struggling to come to terms with the fact that there's Evertonians who actually believe this has been a "decent" window for us. Only positives are keeping Stones and signing Deulofeu.

Everton in let the fans down shocker total lack of ambition

It's almost like we had no plan b when the Yarmolenko deal fell through. Which makes no sense because Martinez always ...
Oh. Hang on.

Never mind.

It's been an 'okay' window. The issue is not addressing the one position we needed a natural playmaker in. We've sorted out the wide issue as well as the defensive problems, invested in some youth. Just the one major position we needed is missing. THAT stops it being a good window, IMO.

This perfectly sums it up. By not buying a player to really take us to the next level in the position we needed, I think it simply delays a sale of Stones and Lukaku to next summer at best (possibly winter). We bring in someone like Yarmolenko and have a good first half, perhaps challenging for the top 4 maybe we get another year or even more to build. Perhaps we still can and will be pulling for us to make it. But we just made it harder than it could have been. Barkley, Stones, and Lukaku will recognize the lack of a signing and will not be so nice when they get tapped up again.

We haven't even spent the Vibrac loan! lol

Bet we will still have to pay the interest on it.

 

[Ash Woods]

Liverpool just got two sneaky unknown signings so surely we will be able to pull a loan

 

[Skeleton Crew]

Is that headline of 8mil for Naismith right? Rejected 8mil for Naismith?

Incredulous.

I mean we would be thin at striker/forward and I do like our albino messi BUT 8 Mil for Naismith?
