Can confirm: ToffeeTV still know nothing about this deal.

Should have left off the bit "about this deal"

Hotline to Ped, C?

How can people defend Martinez? Absolutely clueless manager who ruined years of consistency. The reason he finished fifth was thanks to Moyes groundwork and because Man United and Spurs had mares of a season.

wrong thread

Sky6 have and will continue to spend more.

Is that going to be the excuse if we finish 7th?

Hotline to Ped, C?

Unfortunately not P.

The Voice of the Fans (Trademark) doesn't like me all that much.

This deal should happen soon though. Swans getting twitchy - going off Clement's comments.

It's not an excuse it's the reality. And 7th is the expectation unless you can spend more and get better players in. We need CL to get the best players out there.

Is that going to be the excuse if we finish 7th?

No excuse but we, at this point, still have the 7th best squad. In my own opinion of course.

But the hope is the boss gets them all to over perform a lot.

Yes, Baz is unusually equivocal. He usually appears very well sourced so it's tricky to get a reading on things just at the minute.

They know a lot about Boots Meal Deals I imagine.

They're experts in failed Everton media projects.

Be incredible if we managed to offload Niasse here as part of the deal. £40m+Oumar would be grand.

I've got a strong feeling Niasse will score a last minute equalizer to rob us of a top four place.

Siggy down to 2/7 to come here. I think it is finally happening. Now on to people freaking out about a striker lol.

 

[BlueToff]

I'd be disappointed to see Connolly go even though I'm aware there is a good chance he won't make it. After all the effort to enhance our youth team flogging this early one seems a little negative. I'd be happy with 25m plus McCarthy and Besic. Frees up wages to cover Siggys plus it creates space in the infirmary.

It may be just a loan - if it happens. That could well be an issue holding it up.

Also, there's at least £30m of value between McCarthy and Besic.

are you really expecting to finish above Liverpool spurs and arsenal with an entirely new team? we will be lucky to finish where we did last year if you also factor in the buggeration of the europa

They're experts in failed Everton media projects.

Ped was throwing a few questions about and I felt Baz was a bit prevaricative. He usually has an air of informed authority so I'm thinking that there are still a few twists in the tail to this saga
