You may be correct, but my understanding is that a 60 million pound player on a five year contract sets the PSR books back by 12 million a year, which should be well within our affordability imo.
Personally, I'd be overjoyed if we managed to get Mbuemo for 50 - 60 million. At 50 million, he'd cost just a bit more than Anthony Gordon cost the Barcodes, but he'd provide double the output! It's also the same price that we sold Onana to...
I agree but I always worry that Everton get the most expensive worst option.
E.g we shell out 40 million for Siggurdson whilst the top clubs are picking up the younger better players for often an even cheaper price
Basically I don’t want us...
You are correct, but there's only so many super duper clubs to go around. If the RS are getting Wirtz, then they aren't getting Cherki. If City are getting Cherki, then they aren't getting Mbuemo. If Newcastle get Mbuemo, then they aren't getting...
So is Ndiaye.
Regardless, Everton aren't going to be buying Ramsey, and they certainly aren't going to incorporate Branthwaite into this imaginary transaction.
FFS, the transfer news on Google is full of journalists harping on about how Everton are so crap that they can offer other team's cast-offs guaranteed first team football. It wrecks my head!
He's a left midfielder that is inferior to Ndiaye. I...
Sound. And if he’s more effective than Beto then he should keep his starting place, and if he’s not, then he WILL be demoted to the bench in favour of Beto.
I hold the opinion that we need more than one competent striker, and that having more than one wouldn’t be pointless tbh mate.
I think he’s an exciting prospect and I’d be happy for us to sign him, but I neither agree or believe that he’d be a...
It’s not a guarantee at all, it’s a figment of your imagination! Managers may talk about pathways etc, but nobody worth their salt provides guarantees with a disregard for form.
And yet his stats aren't as good and comparing them in the recent game at Goodison if you asked someone who didn't know the Prem which one was rated at 30 million it wouldn't be Delap.
Exactly. So if he isn’t as effective as Beto, then he gets dropped. He doesn’t sign a contract with any guarantee of making the first team, never mind starting.
Potential.
By no means am I writing the lad off, but the idea of promising him a starting place in the first team on the back of one decent season is absurd, especially when Beto is in such fine form.
