Your summary of what's happened so far is maybe a little bit puffed up to make it sound more impressive than it actually is. We didn't renegotiate on Alcaraz, we triggered the option to buy at the price we had already agreed in January. Barry was...
Evertonians seem obsessed with defenders who are good going forward and forwards who are good defending. My God, what I'd give for defenders who defend well and forwards who are known for their attacking excellence. We seem to want Jacks of all...
Well they haven’t yet, have they?
And don’t twist what I actually said. I said they have it all to prove and that the budget was still an unknown entity, which it is. You can’t argue against it I’m afraid.
If you told someone in May that by 18th July we’d have signed 2 new players with one of them being a sub keeper, you’d have been told to stop being such a ridiculous crybaby bedwetter.
I definitely would mate. Was expecting a lot more by now personally. Appreciate it’s all about opinions though. Of course you have to judge the overall business at the end of the window that goes without saying, but we can only go off what we’ve...
I’m yet to be convinced we actually have the finances to do that. We’ve spent a fair chunk of coin on Barry out of absolute necessity due to Calvert Lewis leaving, but as to the overall budget, that is still to be determined.

As we stand it’s been a disappointing start to the window. It’s not “bed wetting” or “soiling your undies” to say that, it just has.
So much needs to be done, and I’m pretty sure everyone here (including those who clearly won’t admit it) would...
This may be true , but given time and support to develop, he could exceed Luiz ( who is good but not great , to be fair ).
Personally if we had the choice I would prefer we take the chance on Hackney .
In all likelihood we will end up with neither.
Sorry, again, why would we be getting the player at the top of our list on deadline day? No serious clubs acquire their priority targets on deadline day, even we have never done that. Our deadline day signings are bums like Broja and Dele Alli...

I’m all in on this lad. Much prefer this kind of signing to Luiz personally. Hackney and Harrison Armstrong as a pair would be exciting going forward. Actual footballers...
We can compete, people are just hoping that we'll add more quality to make us better, it's not that surprising surely?
We know we had a decent run for a while and yes it would be great if that happened again at the start of the season, but it's...
