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.
1.) 26 Aug 2020 10:09:26
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

{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.

Interesting combination of Baines and Coleman in charge until we appoint a new manger. Would love to see this combination kept together and given time to see what they could do with the youth setup then if they are good enough progress to the 1st team.
{Ed025's Note - both of them are sill good enough to play sa..

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..
20 Jun 2025 10:37:35
70m is more than enough unless you want to pay over the odds for bang average players. let's not forget the league is rigged to allow certain clubs the ability avoid PSR sanctions via creative accounting methods.
17 Jun 2025 09:29:05
Its all media rubbish while nothing is happening. The club will have their targets and we won't even know who they are. We will just see who has signed and won't know if they where 1st 2nd or 3rd down the list of players wanted.
27 May 2025 09:38:59
If you look at the club statement I think its unlikely we will go for Harrison or any of the other loanee's mentioned. Good news on Alcaraz though let hope we can get the deal done early doors. UTFT.
11 Mar 2025 08:59:15
I am sorry but the argument that is we don't spend we can't compete is a myth of hype. That in itself generates higher costs for everyone. What gets me some are happy to say we need to spend big on players yet do not see that if the current trend continues then the only way clubs can continue to survive is by passing cost back to the fans via higher fee's whether that be ticket prices merch or media subscriptions which we have seen already and it will only get worse. This will by default lead to a super league as numerous clubs will be fighting for limited resource so the clubs with the largest perceived fan base will be favoured.
10 Mar 2025 09:37:34
The problem is if you have one player on 150K then everyone else wants to be on a similar wage or slightly less. As a club I don't think it would be sustainable. If you looks at Bretford Bournemouth and Brighton there top wage is around £100k. We have the perfect time for a reset on the wage front in the summer. Additional JP is on £125k and JB is nowhere near his level yet. As for if we don't pay the wage we are not ambitious enough well that's the sort of thinking that helped get us into the financial mess we are in, in the first place. JB could double his salary and be on a great wage, more than enough for a player of his calibre.
17 Jun 2025 13:01:37
Any signings can be scheduled to start 1st of July to get round PSR I would imagine the delay is nothing to do with PSR just trying to agree terms in general with the players and their agents. As for Jarrad he is contract is till 2027 with a 1 year option so I don't see why we need to give him a pay rise. Jurno's won't stop speculating about him being transferred even if he gets a new contract plus he would leave if he wanted to anyway.
05 Jun 2025 09:52:46
Gana is on international duty at the moment he may well be concentrating on that.
03 Jun 2025 09:13:36
Gueye will sign if the deal suits him I can't see the club paying what they think is over the odds no matter how good we all think he is.
12 May 2025 10:36:16
If Gueye resigns and we get Alcaraz we will have IG, JG, TI, CA, INd HA that are CM/ CAM I think that should be enough. I would go for LM/ W and RM/ W, back up CB, back up/ staring LB and RB and a new CF.
30 Mar 2025 14:26:07
In the ideal world DCL's salary would provide the wage of at least 4 squad players.
