    Everton Summer 2024 Transfer Thread

    He's more of a number 6 than anyone we have, which in itself isn't a bad thing at all, but given we don't really play with a proper number 6, it's a slightly odd one. This lad is your classic "win the ball back and give it to someone who can play" type. Usually you'd associate him being the...

    Suddenly explains those links to the lad at Luton. Wouldn't want to lose him as when he's fit he's a huge asset and there aren't many players around with his mix of pace, athleticism and ability in the air but we all know what the financial situation is. If we could get £40m for him (I'm...

    There are absolutely reasons that we would be attractive. The major problem is the numbers involved. There's half a billion of debt to be repaid before you consider other bills coming due and what little the existing owner may think he can recoup. Nobody, particularly with the new stadium on the...

    We will have paid a premium for his cover as we do with every other player

    I honestly don't know. If the only claims have been for his actual physical injuries (add quotation marks here if you prefer) then perhaps not

    I don't really have an opinion about whether the lad in question is right or not tbh. Some of what he says adds up, some not completely. I think what surprises me, and why having the numbers at the front of mind is important, is the way the prospect of administration etc is so casually...

    It's the least important part of the debt picture, admittedly, but it will still need to be addressed at some point. That, and the value of his shares (laughable) are actually the major reason no white knight is appearing because he isn't willing to write everything off just yet. It will come at...

    Everton Summer 2024 Transfer Thread

    Probably the most depressing in anyone's living memory. There's nothing anyone at the club can do to influence that, we are simply trying to stay alive as a club and that needs to be the context it's seen in. Anger should be directed towards the right people (Moshiri and the former directors)...

    You can believe or not believe that lad, but the numbers themselves should make everyone realise how much trouble we are in We are in debt (even completely putting to one side the transfer payments coming due and the outstanding money owed to Laing O'Rourke) to the tune of about a billion -...

    New Everton Stadium Discussion

    How are the drinking options shaping up down there? Obviously there's the Bramley Moore already, I saw that the Blue House are opening up down there and there was something I read somewhere about somewhere called the "Terrace Bar" opening up down there with a rooftop bar with a view of the...

    You don't need to reply to every single one of them mate. You've gone so far down the rabbit hole that you've almost gone full Matt Le Tissier. It's gone from amusing to borderline concerning. Find something more fulfilling.

    Well, it's convenient for a lot of people involved for him to be "injured"

    There will inevitably be links to Che Adams given he's out of contract and we've been linked for a couple of years

    2023/24 Dele

    Worth pointing out that every player is insured in the case of long term injuries (or at least they were when I was last involved in insurance), so provided Dele's injury has met the threshold for a long term injury, he will have had at least a portion of his wages covered by the club's insurer.

    Barkley..again

    I'd find it difficult to look past his somewhat murky history with us, but I do think you're being a little harsh about his role this season. He's certainly playing deeper and he's their creative spark, but it hasn't been an undisciplined free role, he's done it within a structure and has a...

    If you believe the Bobble, Maupay was a Lampard decision - he wanted PL experience. Thelwell wanted Guirassy but was overruled by Kenwright who sided with Lampard

    AWB wouldn't suit Glasner's system where attacking wing backs are required. He'd be great for Dyche, but he probably earns far more than we could consider paying.

    2023/24 Jordan Pickford

    Dunno, he had a good 1st season here, then I thought he was hit and miss for a while, until Ancelotti's full season where he was genuinely dreadful for about half a season. Then, I don't know what happened, but about January time that season he turned it around and has been pretty much excellent...

    He was linked in the early days of the Steve Walsh regime, but don't think he was much more than a prospect at that point
