we just mad losses of 9m thats where all of the excess transfer money went, this 8.6m is coming from future tv deal but im glad kenright is using it now. the theatre business would of took a battering over the summer due to the olympics.
the only problem is why a midfielder we loan out barkley and bring in fer??? with 8.6m you could of got a decent striker to play alongside jelavic and ease the pressure. If he is a replacement for fellaini then fair enough but why now and not in the summer, theres no guarantee anyone will meet his release clause, the midfield this season hasnt been a problem they have been playing consistently and chipping in with goals
or if not a striker then a RM, you dont have to be a genius to figure out where we need improving and it isnt the CM positions
Fer ferks sake c'mon lids! We're gonna win the league now!
And the cup...
Ok, ok. Unrealistic... So...
We finish 3rd.
Win the cup.
Felli stays.
Kev & Gibbo play every minute of every game.
Ronaldo and Messi demand moves to Goodison buying out their own contracts.
Naismith slaps in a transfer request and is sold to the shyte for 12.5m who finish 12.
While putting up a new fence in his back yard Peter Reid strikes oil, buys out Bill and invests several billion in the club.
Watch this space.
Tiote came from Twente and i think Fer replaced him, if hes 75% as good id be delighted.
Could have easily signed this morning and trained with first team today
He flew in yesterday afternoon mate.
Hmmm dont agree with that. It's not about a first 11 to challange for trophies and CL it's about having a squad. Our CM ha struggled plenty of times this season especially when Gibson has been out. Barkley is not quite ready and is not the same type of player as fre or Gibson or nev for that matter.
I agree we need a striker/winger type player also to cover jela and mirallas and there's still a couple of days left yet so keep fingers crossed.
As for fellaini if he's to go in the summer so be it. As it stands bringing fre in early and hopefully 1 or 2 more were giving ourselves every chance for success this season before he does or doesn't move on.
Great move by the club.
According to forth Official and a couple of others, its signed sealed and wrapped right up! 4.5 year deal, fee 10M Euro.
