2022/23 Anthony Gordon

[Richard Alex]

At what point though is the money useless as there is no time to spend it mate - remember Rooney.

6 full days left in the window.

Agree with this
Kenwright all over if this happens

…Clare Balding shops in a different supermarket, if you know what I mean!!

It’s Waitrose, I’ve seen her in there lots of times ?

I don’t think it’s as simple as we sell Gordon and then take our mo ey and start talking to other clubs. I’d wager there’s a domino effect in place of us not selling Gordon until every other deal we need is agreed. Then they’ll start falling one by one over the next few days but I doubt very much we sell up and then start at point 1 of a new transfer discussion.

This is 100% what is happening, and it always drags to the deadline like this, but it doesn't make it any less stressful for us. I'm still hopeful we'll get an impact signing in if Gordon is sold, but I'm also even more appalled that we didn't move on an affordable, adequate striker as SOON as Dom got hurt. We need a lot more than just one forward. I think we've screwed the pooch there, but that we're being smart and methodical when it comes to Gordon/other incomings. But that opinion is too balanced for most.

Yes but not till both his hamstrings are bladdered and he just needs a few years to build up his pension

To build off what you're saying we should had a contingency player lined up before richie was sold that could of deputized as a striker. It's insane that they were so oblivious that dcl could be susceptible to other injury especially when the sweaty heap known as Rondon was our only other option

That is what's happening...and it's an absolute indictment of the governance of this football club.

To practically hand five PL games over to our opponents when we just avoided relegation last season is a terrible gamble with the club's future.

We wont have a striker in by the Leeds game. Not a chance they'll be registered.

Striker???

I thought you wanted another right back.

 

[ianbeany]

£60 million is crazy money. Take it!

 

[BluePaul86]

Expect to hear tonight that the deal is dead. Everton won't sell.

I think so too. I think we are pushing for signings the other way which I do not think will come
