Question in the current environment would you be happy if the club signs CA's older targets on season long loans with Brands buying younger players for the future. Then after the unwanted players contracts expire at the end of season expire the club reassess the transfer policy.

I would take that all day long, after the last few years we need a proper plan in place and it's a killer but we need to be patient.
Carlo has always said that he will sign Good players and that they might not always be young but they will be Good.
2.) 26 Aug 2020 13:22:46
I'm happy, personally I'm sick of "building for the future" or buying unknowns or youngens with potential, as let's face it, this has been the plan for years and years and it hasn't exactly materialised has it.
I woukd like us to get some proven quality players in and actually enjoy going the game and watching us play some decent football,
I can't take another season like last year.

One for the Ed's. Do you know if we are in any talks that may lead to bringing in a new left back. Silva has been playing Robinson quite a bit in pre-season so I have a feeling that he is being assessed to see if he is good enough to play as a back up LB.
{Ed002's Note - I cannot tell you about any talks just now but I understand that interest of Everton and others remains for Marvin Plattenhardt. I have mentioned others that may also be options.}
1.) 22 Jul 2018 14:58:25
Arent we in for Digne?
{Ed002's Note - Sure maybe, but Digne is very much a defensive left back rather than a wing back - and perhaps not really what Everton need.}
2.) 22 Jul 2018 15:35:25
Would be mice to have some defenders who can defend.
3.) 22 Jul 2018 15:32:33
Thanks ed. I thought playing a front 3 with only 2 CBs would lessen the need for a more attacking playerlike Plattenhardt. But i'm not that familiar with Digne to be honest and agree that we still need an outlet from our full backs. With a front 3, when the wider players tuck in you do need an outlet. Silva does like an attacking and expansive style aswell which points to a more forward thinking full back. Not disagreeing with you in any way ed just exploring my opinion, admittedly based on a lack of knowledge :) Has there been a player profile on Digne please ed?
4.) 22 Jul 2018 20:58:54
Thanks ed appreciate the info.
5.) 22 Jul 2018 22:48:26
Yeah I agree Ed he’s not he most confident person going forward from what I’ve seen. Looks panicked on the ball which is strange for a Barcelona player but if silva and brands want him let’s get behind him.
16 Jun 2016 16:46:47
If anyone fancies a laugh take a look at the emerging whispers on sly if we get half the players we are being rumored with we would have the best squad in the PL if not Europe. As you said though Ed its nice to be in the situation for a change.
1.) 16 Jun 2016 17:06:14
ano that today whisper had Lucas moura on it.
26 May 2016 13:35:59
Hypothetical one here if Zlatan goes to MU do you think Rooney would be surplus to requirements would we be his first port of call.
{Ed025's Note - i would doubt it sa, he will play one more season at utd then end his career in the MLS i suspect mate..
1.) 26 May 2016 18:30:48
Rooney definitely playing at Utd next season. May leave come Jan but he'll start August at Utd.
26 May 2016 13:22:45
Hypothetical one here if Zlatan goes to MU do you think Rooney would be surplus to requirements would we be his first port of call.
{Ed025's Note - it would come down to money i think sa and that would make it a non starter, my feeling is that he will play one more season with utd then end his career in the MLS mate..
1.) 26 May 2016 16:05:56
If we are looking to offer £200 million wages to Hart, ok paper talk, but I would not rule Everton out of signing Rooney as his wages could be met, call me a romantic but I have a gut feeling, Rooney will be coming back to Everton.

Is it just me or should the FA now after changing the FA Cup structure also change their Motto from "For All" to "For SIX".
26 Oct 2023 09:09:56
I personally don't see what all the panic is about The PL are investigating a claim of a potential breech of P&S guidance. There has been no information from the PL put in the public domain other than they will review the case. Nothing has been said as to what the breech is actually for either. Anything in the media at this time is pure speculation. Even if found guilty there would probably be some sort of appeals process which would push any punishment down the road. So you may end up stressing over something that won't even come to fruition.
1.) 26 Oct 2023 14:26:14
You can print anything now as long as you use words like, could may or it's possible.
2.) 26 Oct 2023 17:40:29
My view is we will IF found guilty get 6points + 6 suspended for 2 years. I have nothing to base this on other that seeing how these things work over the years.
23 Aug 2022 14:02:51
Interesting that the EFC related media state the Gordon deal all but is done but the CFC related media state we are likely to reject any new offer.
19 Jul 2021 08:59:10
The club is in a difficult situation if they let everyone know their targets then prices will rise and pundits will give their opinions prior to signing which may have a detrimental affects on the transfer. Alternatively but not letting everyone know their transfer targets then the media can com up with speculation that frustrates supporters as they don't necessarily support the idea of signing particular players. Until we sign a player every thing is speculation so why get worried about it, it probably won't happen anyway. If you look at our latest signings within the club they are all quality players or players with potential. I trust the club not the media.
1.) 19 Jul 2021 14:45:06
All Premier League teams are in that position- often a player just goes to the highest bidder, or for the highest wages. And why not - it’s a job after all.
In terms of managing the squad - the club may well be quite far down the line of getting players out which means we can develop the squad. Securing squad players, on lower wages, could enable us to make 2/ 3 marque signings. Not every player needs to be a guaranteed starter - we need players who can do a job in the cups, cover injuries/ suspensions etc. Let’s judge the signings once deadline day comes.
{Ed025's Note - i will have the squad player shout JB, but there are a lot of nay sayers out there looking for a stick to beat rafa with and andros fits the bill perfectly for them mate, in my view we needed a bit of a decent signing to appease the doubters and it would have gone a long way to smoothing the transition of the new manager coming in..
2.) 19 Jul 2021 16:01:56
Don’t disagree, Ed, mate. Hopefully that big name signing that we can get excited about is just round the corner.
{Ed025's Note - hopefully JB but the only names at the moment are Gray and Townsend mate, lets hope things change..

Interesting interview on youtube Toffee TV with Guillem Balagué about Benitez. There is an obvious bias as Guillem knows Benitez personally but it does give you an insight into the Benitez and what he is about.
1.) 02 Jul 2021 16:49:43
Alternatively Rory who is a Chelsea fan/ Youtuber offers a slightly less favourable opinion on him in his video with Ped and Baz lol.
2.) 03 Jul 2021 10:58:22
Just watched it and the video he mentions when BenÃtez was Chelsea manager against Brentford. blimey, I had no idea how Chelsea fans felt about him.
08 Apr 2024 15:33:28
It not a great outcome by any stretch of the imagination its a complete and utter farce.
26 Feb 2024 09:10:03
Sports washing is sports washing no football team should be controlled by any state in my opinion.
01 Feb 2024 07:53:31
No one no one out is my prediction.
22 Jan 2024 09:27:52
Decoure in the glue holding the team together look at the win ratio with him and without him in the team. He is also one of SDs go to men who can play a full 90+ mins and we all know how well SD likes to use his subs. Selling Decoure has major positives helps get us out of some of our financial issues but at what cost?
19 Jan 2024 18:54:45
So how can they easily determine that EFC have spent £85M between the period of the last recorded accounts and the accounting information that the sent to the PL if the accounts are not in the public domain.
12 Apr 2024 11:50:35
Neither team should not have been docked any points. The process is not fully documented with regards to penalties due to breeches and having a open ended punishment policy is farcical. But that's what happens when you have a hierarchical members club run by self serving muppets.
11 Apr 2024 09:33:56
Selling and buying a business will take as long as it needs to take, forget all the media trash they won't have a clue what is going on. 777 will be undertaking due diligence around the sale and if they are happy with the outcome will propose to buy the club. That proposal will either be accepted by the owner or not. If not they will negotiate until they find a suitable outcome for all parties or the deal will not go through.
19 Mar 2024 16:45:30
Spot on Ed the PL let Everton down and continue to do so.
19 Mar 2024 16:10:17
Where did you get the fact that Evreton owner is just a front for a Russian oligarch, bet it wasn't the PL website eh ed as they sanctioned the purchase.
{Ed001's Note - that was my point, they should not have sanctioned it. The evidence was out there if they bothered to look. It would have saved Everton a lot of mess if they had blocked that sale. Even if it had then ended up in Usmanov's hands, it would have been sold quickly on like Chelsea and you would have been in a much better position. The Prem let Everton down badly.}

DCL is not a clinical finisher, he is about 1 in 4 he also looks low in confidence snatching at chances. However, the quality of chances are not great, he makes them look better than they are with his athleticism. DCLs game is far more than just scoring goals, Ancelotti new this and therefore made sure he played between the sticks and had plenty of chances. Under Ancelotti he looked 10 times better than he does under SD. Unfortunately, we don't have the players to provide either the quality or quantity of chances with this squad. I reckon if he played for a team that created more quality chances he would be a 20-30 goal a season forward.
