Any updates on the potential transfer of Van Dijk form Southampton rumours seem to be gathering pace an sky bet have brought us in from 22/ 1 to 4/ 1. Cheers Ed
{Ed025's Note - they dont want to sell tony and have turned down £60m from chelsea so forget it mate..
1.) 12 Jan 2017 22:16:16
We have money tonyandoefc but Moshri is a business man, he doesn't get where he is by being stupid with his money. As has been said they turned down 60 mill already. Besides which the bloke isn't worth half of what we got for Stones.
2.) 13 Jan 2017 01:17:22
He's a lot better than stones
21 Jun 2016 10:28:11
Ed, what do you think the chances are of us keeping hold of Lukaku? And would you want him to stay after all his outbursts? I just can't make my mind up on the situation.
{Ed002's Note - I expect he will go but Everton will need to be realistic about the asking price.}
1.) 21 Jun 2016 10:41:19
I think the board should say, £60 million. Put up or shut up. Lukaku should be fined for any future outbursts and explain that he is still under contract and it will be EFC ( his employers ) that will decide on player transfers.
{Ed002's Note - That really isn't how it works. If a player wants to move on it does no good whatsoever to block any move or act in what would be a particular;y stupid manner as you suggest.}
2.) 21 Jun 2016 10:47:39
Looks and sounds a bit different now Ed since his manager has come out with his latest statement, like you said though players hold the power and not worth keeping someone who does not want to be here, Id love him to stay and actually think it could happen now but we will know soon enough.
3.) 21 Jun 2016 11:08:32
Thanks ed.
4.) 21 Jun 2016 11:13:47
To be honest I want Rom sold there is no loyalty in football and he has his agent in his ear telling him he needs to move remember he is one player Everton will replace him and we will move on end off.
5.) 21 Jun 2016 12:32:43
Do the latest comments from his agent as reported in Liverpool Echo mean he is back tracking and willing to now stay?
6.) 21 Jun 2016 12:46:09
Agree completely Ed, no point holding onto someone who is not fully committed. For me the ideal situation would be to keep him for another year as I don't think he's quite ready to lead the line at a top team yet.
Interested to hear Ed, what do you think is a realistic asking price for Lukaku (i. e. in your knowledge roughly how much will clubs likely be willing to pay) ? And in your knowledge how does the club's valuation stack up against that?
{Ed002's Note - I suspect something in the order of £40M or so ST. It would help if there were a couple of clubs pushing and if he could excel for the balance of the Euros.}
7.) 21 Jun 2016 14:44:27
Thursday's vote could have a dramatic impact on his value; the pound is very volatile at the moment and a dramatic rise or fall in its value is highly likely. This would result in foreign clubs either seeing £40m as relatively cheap or extortionate. English clubs, of course, will be unaffected. This, however, should not be in anyway one's main reason to vote remain or leave.
8.) 21 Jun 2016 14:52:23
I would hate us to take 40mil for Rom as i think in a couple of years he could be worth so much more, but at present time it does sound a realistic price given his mixed form.
It is a profit on him though and he certainly helped us out with his goals so in the overall picture he was a great signing for the club.
As I've mentioned before though, could we replace him with anyone better? I think we should go all out for Breel Embolo, he reminds me so much of Rom, young strong and confident. With a little patience and development i think he'll be a real star.
9.) 21 Jun 2016 13:22:57
Thanks Ed.
There has been paper talk today linking us with Vincent Aboubakar of Porto - is there any truth in this to your knowledge?
And would this, or any 'bigger money' signing, be reliant on selling Lukaku?
{Ed002's Note - Aboubakar would be an odd choice but possible option for Everton and would be more likely a Naisse replacement. He was of interest to Leicester and Montpelier but both are put off by messy ownership and cost issues. Certainly the interest of both of those clubs has moved on.}
10.) 21 Jun 2016 14:00:55
Ed 40 mil seems a little on the low side to me last summer in the papers they reported that we turned down between 36 and 38 million bids for stones so by your thinking he is only worth 2 to 4 mil more than what was bid for stones last year which is curious considering goalscorer are harder to get than defenders and tend to cost more as well so ed if u think Rom will probably go for 40mil if stones leaves this summer how much would think he would go for because r valuation for stones was around the 40mil region.
{Ed002's Note - Firstly the bids for Stones were nothing like that amount, secondly I am not sure why you think the value of Stones last year is of any relevance at all to the value of Lukaku this year. I am not entirely sure why you are complicating a simple discussion about a striker.}
11.) 21 Jun 2016 14:29:06
Just on your last comment ed about being realistic. you say 40 Mil is realistic but how can this be so low when troy deeney is being banded around for 30 Mil (not an international and in my opinion nowhere near as good as rom)
{Ed002's Note - I have no idea why you think the value of of Troy Deeney is of any relevance in this matter.}
12.) 21 Jun 2016 15:04:39
Thanks Ed. Do we hold an interest in Aboubakar or is this more paper rubbish?
{Ed002's Note - Please see a separate answser ST.}

We're in a position to demand whatever price we like for Lukaku. Gone are the days of Kenwright having to put on a theatrical "they're stealing our boy" to the cameras. Lukaku does himself no favours by acting up should a bid be rejected. Similar to the situation with Liverpool and Suarez; he'll have to put up with what happens until a buying club comes in with an acceptable offer.
He's already complained to the press that his price tag is too high. His agent has now come out and said that money is no longer an issue for Everton. There's a lot of backtracking coming from Raiola which is very uncharacteristic of the man. It appears as though they realise they've overplayed their hand.
Moshiri and the directors/ management team that he's bringing in know the extent of their power and have been ruthless when it comes to Lukaku.
14.) 21 Jun 2016 19:05:48
Obviously ed. he plays in same position in the same league so we can make comparison. Kind of like comparing prices of coffee in supermarkets. Deeney is more like own brand compared to lukaku nescafe in terms of quality so should cost more to purchase, in theory I suppose
Whatever happens the prices banded around, accurate or not, are stupid. The cost of a top player can run a small country for a bit.
15.) 21 Jun 2016 19:13:11
Strange Ed how you say keeping a player that wants away is stupid behaviour when that's exactly what happened with Stones. Furthermore the action Dixie normus? suggested has been taken by several clubs in the past when dealing with wantaway stars!
{Ed002's Note - Did Stones have a stellar season? And sure, if Everton want to follow down the path of others that is just fine - just what the club needs - players who want to be elsewhere.}
03 Jun 2016 22:05:14
Just had a phone call off a friend telling me Koeman has signed, also there are 4 more people behind the scenes coming in, one of them being a Russian but not Usmanov of Arsenal.
1.) 03 Jun 2016 22:26:53
I'd rather we confirmed the DoF first.
2.) 04 Jun 2016 08:56:29
So this 'friend' does he or she work at Finch Farm.
3.) 04 Jun 2016 09:48:22
'HE' does yes.
4.) 04 Jun 2016 10:01:38
He works for Everton not at finch farm though.
26 Aug 2015 18:52:57
Just heard off a friend that Stones request has been rejected. Also that Yarmolenko is trying to push through a move to Everton he's told the Kiev chairman that he wants the move completed. Probably a load of rubbish the second one but thought I'd pass it on and I hope the first one is true. You got any news on either Ed?
{Ed025's Note - nothing on them tony.. sorry..
1.) 26 Aug 2015 19:42:36
Good, and so it should be rejected.
20 Jun 2015 13:58:09
Any transfer news Ed? Talk was that Martinez wanted deals done early so we get a full pre season together.
{Ed025's Note - only what you will find on the search function mate..

Rumour going around saying Big Dunc will make an appearance in Osman's testimonial tomorrow has anyone else heard this?
1.) 02 Aug 2014 17:09:22
Probably not, at hibberts testimonial there were rumours of rooney, just bs most likely
2.) Don't want him to anyway, I want all the first team to play for vital pre season competition. Granted not all are available. So would rather see an up and coming star in place instead
21 Jun 2016 11:08:32
Thanks ed.
16 Jun 2016 01:30:50
No chance Yaya Toure would come.
04 Jun 2016 10:01:38
He works for Everton not at finch farm though.
04 Jun 2016 09:48:22
'HE' does yes.
01 Aug 2014 12:46:35
You said you couldn't see Lukaku signing either Ed so McCarthy to United could happen.
{Ed025's Note - that was me being pessimistic tony...if i had said he would, then i would get no end of grief mate..its called protecting my credibility fella..
