Summer Transfer Window 2019

[james2805]

Brands certainly going for the grand finale here if he still has aces up his sleeve. Really really wants that statue

Hmm. I'm not having that really.

We've shown plenty of ambition by pressing for Zaha. £70m was offered, plus players. The deal was by decent accounts ready to go until Palace pulled the plug - leading to Zaha's request. We may have gone back in or may have not.

My main worry isn't 'ambition'. I hate the friggin phrase. We've shown plenty of it.

But, what we don't seem to have done - at the moment - is had our ducks in a row. And that is a problem.

Hopefully I'll be proved wrong in three hours.

Yes but in the last 2 days we’ve offered 100mil fir players if you believe the rumours. So if we aren’t in for Zaha anymore who are we going for?

Silva wants another midfielder, we bid for doucoure and iwobi, today nodody.

Yes we got Kean, that a fantastic signing but he’s 19yr and will need time to adjust. We are desperate fir the quality attacker who can come in and hit the ground running.

A few injuries abs we could be left with DCL & Walcott either side of a 19yr old and Tom Davies behind them. That would be a disaster.
I’m not giving up hope, but it’s not looking good

25mins to go until....

Good Evening Jim!

I agree going to the game less or more doesn’t make anyone a greater blue. It was a bit of a non relevant point on my end.

That's fair enough mate, we can agree on that one

 

[BlueToff]

I'm going off O'Keeffe to be fair mate. He seems convinced we bid 52 Million only

I like G'OK, mate. I do.

But the others - mainly Aarons, who is usually very very good with Palace stuff - I believe have more reliable info. Maybe i'm wrong, but gut instinct is Zaha wouldn't have handed in a request if we hadn't bid again.

Kilbane, Martyn and McFadden heady days

 

[navidson]

What are you on about?

Fabricated from the media side - not from Everton

Basically the papers making up stories

 

[flibbyflob]

Still a good window whatever happens but we simply have to get a centre half in. Zaha would be the cherry on the cake if we pulled that one off.

 

[blue to the bone]

If we dont get a winger in it will be disappointing. Leaves us an injury away from been very weak in them positions

 

[JimmyK]

Because until yesterday I reckon there was a good chance Zouma was coming back

I don't think so. My - completely unITK - opinion is that we've tried to play a dangerous game of chicken with Chelsea over Zouma, thinking we'd leave it as late as possible to see if they changed their mind and then move for Tomori if it was a definite no. We've thought this was a pretty foolproof strategy because they'd definitely let one of them go. Luiz moving has thrown that plan out of the window because Chelsea have decided to keep them both, and we've been left returning a load of calls from agents from months ago trying to sort out bringing in a player who we hadn't even considered up until that point.

Think I will have a lie down for a while cannot take all this excitement.

We're not disagreeing?

But we've shown ambition. My problem is at the moment we don't appear to have back up options in place. That's got little to do with 'ambishunnn lad'

 

[Jim Hopper]

Still time for a little reunion yet.

Make it happen Marcel.

 

[Brett Angell Delight]

Good grief. I can’t wait for this window to be over.

Whatever players we end up with when it’s all said and done will get equal BOOs. I’ll trust the judgement of M&M until they give me reason not to.

Above all else don’t forget this is football, and we’re Everton - I wouldn’t be surprised to see Kean on loan at Torino by the end of the season, while Rojo is receiving our POTY award.

Anything can happen...

 

[Arteta10]

No insider trading here! But... I have a feeling that, soon we’re about to hear news about Palace signing a replacement, (Sarr) and Zaha being reported on Merseyside.
Might be way off like.

Getting to close for comfort this. Might not even get Rojo in at this rate.

Mate. There are literally 15 minutes between these two posts

Make your mind up
