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
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.

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.
28 Jun 2021 13:08:48
Saw this and thought yep this sums up football rumour journalism for me.
GARY LINEKER SENDS 3-WORD TWEET ABOUT £13M PLAYER LINKED TO EVERTON
"Dumfries is an athlete".
1.) 28 Jun 2021 16:45:40
4 words. Sums up Lineker.
2.) 28 Jun 2021 17:58:35
I met him last week in the lake district. An absolute gent.
04 Sep 2020 10:43:19
Hope the delay in the signings is due to the Club wanting to announce all 3 at the same time. On another note we are now being linked with Lemar pretty sure this will happen as you just can't have enough left wingers in your squad.
1.) 04 Sep 2020 10:59:38
Thought Lemar was RW, could be wrong.
{Ed002's Note - LW or AM.}
2.) 04 Sep 2020 11:34:37
Well that would be a colossal waste of money then. Unless Iwobi is going the other way, we can dream.
3.) 04 Sep 2020 12:41:47
Just swap Iwobi for Messi.
4.) 04 Sep 2020 12:58:23
Yeah but then Barcelona would have to pay us the difference.
07 Aug 2020 12:09:54
New away kit is class.
1.) 07 Aug 2020 12:47:00
Lots of them will be bought looks great.
10 Sep 2021 08:32:40
Is this the James that last season played probably the best football we have seen at Everton for a considerable time? Or the agent and media portrayed James that doesn't want to be here is unprofessional and doesn't put any effort in? I've seen the first but only heard of the second.
29 Aug 2021 13:14:59
Sorry Ed I disagree they have a right to hold a grudge if they want, it doesn't make them any less of a fan. We all have our opinions that's what makes us unique. I personally don't have a problem with Rafa but I can understand why others do.
{Ed025's Note - holding grudges does not get you very far in life sa, the guy said a stupid thing a long time ago in the heat of the moment mate, sometimes you just have to move on and if he does well for us then all power to him...and long may it continue..
29 Aug 2021 12:47:39
ed your reading the table upside down mate.
{Ed0666's Note - true dat cuz. Just a little Sunday morning candor my old mucker. Love love love Rafa and I hope his magic continues.
29 Aug 2021 11:36:37
I don't think the anti Rafa brigade have ever said he's not a good coach they just don't like the way he behaved when he was across the park and can't get over it.
{Ed025's Note - they need to get a life then sa, time has moved on and a lot of water has passed under that bridge, back the best guy for the job i say mate and at this moment its rafa..
11 Aug 2021 08:46:15
It will be interesting to see how he behaves in the future if he doesn't get the amount of game time he thinks he deserves.
02 Sep 2021 11:24:32
In my opinion we have started better than last season as although we were scoring we were also letting in quite a few. This season its been individual errors by one person that has been the cause of the majority of the goals conceded. The players seem to have blended well in a short period of time and our energy levels look much better. As with last season I hope our form will continue but as always we will have to wait and see. UTFT.
01 Sep 2021 16:49:45
On the RB front we may have identified an option that we couldn't get this window and would rather go with who they want than spend cash on a fee and wages of a player just to fill a position. I hope Brands and Benitez had the conversation and decided not to splash the cash until the player they want is available.
01 Sep 2021 16:42:48
Considering we had no money until the final few hours of the window and the fact that we have brought in five proven PL players and managed to get a couple out on good loans and reduced our wage bill significantly its not been to bad a window. If you take into consideration that Benitez has most of the players performing much better than they did last season so far, I can see us progressing again this season. RB is still looking a bit shaky but we do have players that can cover the position. It will be interesting to see if Kenny can improve offensively with better coaching.
05 Aug 2021 09:05:58
For all the people knocking Morhiri in my opinion your wrong.
03 Aug 2021 09:09:39
Gents take a chill pill we all know we don't have money its been publicised on numerous occasions. If we can we will sign players if we can't we wont. Yes we could do with a new right back and right wing but we currently have multiple players that can play in the positions. let's not forget that the current squad were only one win away from a European spot so its not all doom and gloom. In my opinion we won't get relegated so it will be just another season of trying to get better with what we have got. The club is heading in the right direction so let be positive. let's not forget the PL is rigged financially but life not fair anyway so we just have to suck it up.
