Did we ever find or spend the Arteta money?

May be a way of getting some PSR headroom. Check in the sofa on the way out of Goodison.

On the cusp of 900 pages already lads.

Keep going this is both a way to maximise your summer and convince a pretty girl to consent to you touching her.

So anyone got any of them links?.

According to ssn Bayer Leverkusen are keen on McAtee and he wants to join them.

Well that's pretty much ended hopes of mcatee, savvy from leverkusen to sell for that price and probably get his replacement for a 1/3 of the money

Genuine Dele Ali 2 but without the success. Moyes doesn't go for this sheet thank goodness

Uhhh....drenthe?

Just expected the new era to start on the front foot.

Given the well documented "big job" at hand time is of the essence.

Ideally having a few in before pre-season starts would be good for morale and allow the players to get up to speed with what Moyes wants from them.

I appreciate PSR issues may be a slight issue until July 1st but we all know no matter what this summer we will need to use the free player market as well as the loan market.

I said the other day crying at this stage would normally be "bedwetting" or crying for crying sakes but this year its different.

One last point our pre-seasons have been awful for a number of years and its meant we have had terrible starts to the season, would be nice to have the players in early and we aren't playing catch up come October onwards.

I shouldn't need to justify this given everyone knows all of the above.

Any decent player is waiting for a club in Europe, it's just how the food chain works. It'll work its way down to us soon enough, but mostly it'll be last minute when players realise we are their best option. Unless we're signing complete unknowns or someone no bigger club would want. It's always been the same.

Are we back in For Evan Ferguson, something about it in the red Echo

"Willing"

It's like an accounting rounding error for Premier League clubs. Bit weird to state it like that.

 

[Neiler]

Go!

Replacement is also 1/3 the player

Any jarg transfer rumours ?

Just seen 32 Year old Fred, the ex ManUre player, linked for £15m....

I hate this time of the year, some of the players we get linked to, are dreadful Coufal, Antonio, Fred, Mitrovic, Fabianski, Vardy, Stones, Lindelof & Soucek. All 30 and will reduce in output or are finished. Everyone holds up Brighton and Brentford as good examples, they wouldn`t be flooding their squad with mid 30 year olds as back up, we need to take note, these over the hill squad fillers have no resale and only cost us money.

On the positive side... Grealish, Woltemade, Barry, McAtee, Rohl all make me feel like that is the direction we need to go in.... Grealish is the odd one out being 29 but I think he is a good player and would improve us more than any other single player but I don`t think we can afford to get him.

The forum keeps going in circles. People thinking he is going to be the next big thing and it getting pointed out how barring a handful of games he has played he really isn’t very good.

Would be a waste of a domestic loan and a waste of money. Massively over hyped and overrated because he got a hatrick once.

He is still only 20, bit young to be writing off yet. Been linked to Celtic and Newcastle too.
6 premier league goals 22/23 aged 17/18
6 premier league goals 23/24 aged 18/19 did his cruciate
Just back from injury this season missed preseason and first couple of games

It genuinely flabbergasts me how our fan base lord's absolute dross like McNeil but crucifys players like barkley

I agree, some cream their cecks over Beto but Lukaku got dogs abuse... it doesn`t make sense.
